Ira Shapiro is among the foremost experts on the United States Senate in the country - and a regular friend of the podcast. In this podcast Ira shares not only his observations on the current state of the Senate but also some ideas for fixing these problems.
His latest book The Betrayal: How Mitch McConnell and the Senate Republicans Abandoned America details the ways in which the Senate has gone astray in recent years.
Ira began his relationship with the Senate as an aid to the legendary Jacob Javitts and was involved during that time in the 70s when the giants of the US Senate joined together to convince Richard Nixon to resign, rather than being impeached.
