Trump’s Ukrainian Affair With ‘The Asset’s’ Max Bergmann

This week, Daniella and Ed speak with Max Bergmann, host of "The Asset" podcast and Director of the Moscow Project, to discuss President Trump's attempts to pressure Ukrainian officials and the ongoing impeachment inquiry.

Part of a Series

President Donald Trump’s efforts to extract dirt on his political rivals from foreign governments have rattled the international system. To help unravel the tangled web his administration has sloppily woven, Daniella and Ed are joined by host of “The Asset” podcast and Director of the Moscow Project Max Bergmann. They discuss Trump’s attempts to pressure Ukrainian officials prior to his now-infamous July 25 phone call as well as where the impeachment inquiry seems to be heading.
