Why the Jan. 6 Hearings Came Too Late  
Podcast: In the Bubble with Andy Slavitt
Published On: Fri Oct 21 2022
Description: The Jan. 6 hearings were must-see TV for many Americans, but did they come too late?  Washington Post’s Karoun Demirjian and Politico’s Rachael Bade join Andy to explain why the hearings were in many ways a tacit acknowledgement that the second impeachment got botched. They take us inside the thoughts and minds of political leaders, including Nancy Pelosi’s aversion to impeachment and McConnell’s decision to vote against his gut, all heavily reported for their book, “Unchecked: The Untold Story Behind Congress's Botched Impeachments of Donald Trump.”  Keep up with Andy on Twitter @ASlavitt.
