A dramatization of the Watergate break-in based on Bob Woodward's book
This week, Mike Murphy is flying solo — but fear not, he's joined by two heavyweight Hacks: Jonathan Martin, veteran political reporter and senior political columnist for Politico, and Robert Costa, CBS News chief election and campaign correspondent and co-author of Peril with Bob Woodward. Together, they dive into POTUS v. SCOTUS, wrongful deportations, China's tariff triumphs, Harvard fighting back, deficits, stagflation, strongman stuff, and — naturally — a slew of other uplifting developments in American democracy.
What does Bob Woodward think of all this? Colby Itkowitz poses that question to the renowned Washington Post journalist in his first sit-down interview about President Donald Trump since Trump's second inauguration. Over 50 years ago, Woodward's reporting of the break-in at the Watergate with his colleague Carl Bernstein exposed the Nixon administration's plan to spy on and sabotage his political adversaries and the cover-up that followed. After President Richard Nixon's resignation, Congress would go on to enact new limits on presidential power, which Trump is now challenging. In the years since Watergate, Bob Woodward has continued to report on presidents – interviewing Trump and writing three books about him that reveal the president's approach to power.“So much of it is Trump just asserted himself, taking on the role of the courts, taking on the role of Congress,” Woodward told Itkowitz. “So we are entering a moment where there is going to be a clash of those traditions and laws and Trump's will.” You can also watch the interview here on YouTube. Special thanks to the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library. Today's episode was produced by Sabby Robinson. It was edited by Renita Jablonski and Reena Flores and mixed by Sam Bair.

Investigative reporter Bob Woodward once noted that assassination was the Scarlett letter of American politics because targeted killings challenge the image of the United States as a liberal democracy and the driving force behind a rules-based international order. In his new book, Luca Trenta documents how assassination and assassination attempts have been a persistent feature in US foreign policy. The US government has relied on a variety of direct methods as well as more indirectly laying the groundwork for local assassins. Using primary documents and interviews, The President's Kill List meticulously documents how policymakers decided on assassination and the level of Presidential control over these decisions. The book analyzes the evolution of assassination policies and reveals how successive administrations - through private justifications and public legitimations - ensured that assassination remained an available tool. The podcast includes insightful comments on assassination and the Trump administration. The paperback is coming out in May 2025. Dr. Luca Trenta is an Associate Professor of International Relations in the Department of Political and Cultural Studies at Swansea University. His previous publications include an earlier book, Risk and Presidential Decision-making: The Emergence of Foreign Policy Crises (Routledge, 2016) and he hosts Out of the Shadows, interviewing authors and experts in intelligence and covert operations. In his public-facing scholarship, Dr. Trenta has appeared in a History Channel documentary called Secret Wars Uncovered (2020) and he regularly contributes to and collaborates with media outlets such as the BBC.

Cuando las garantías del régimen democrático se ponen a prueba -como lo constatamos a menudo en estos tiempos- la libertad de la prensa independiente es una de las primeras víctimas. Esta verdad de perogrullo tiene muchos ejemplos de respaldo. Un caso clarísimo es el de la otrora poderosa prensa estadounidense, hoy venida a menos ante la inminencia del segundo mandato de Donald Trump. Empeñado en “ponerle orden a la prensa corrupta” y luchar contra los “periodistas enemigos del pueblo” quien será nuevamente presidente a partir del lunes, amenaza con disparar demandas judiciales aquí y allá, incluyendo a Bob Woodward, uno de los periodistas que destapó el Watergate que derivó en la caída del presidente Richard Nixon. Ello ha derivado en capitulaciones de medios tan reconocidos como el Washington Post cuyo propietario Jeff Bezos envió nada menos que un millón de dólares como donación para la toma de posesión. O ABC News que pactó 16 millones de dólares con Trump para evitar una posible demanda contra uno de sus periodistas que lo señaló erróneamente como responsable de violación cuando lo correcto era abuso sexual. Se dice que el acuerdo pretendía enderezar las relaciones con Trump porque bajo el paraguas del canal se agrupan unas 230 emisoras locales, cuyas licencias deben ser renovadas en el próximo cuatrienio. Durante el mandato de Andrés Manuel López Obrador se registraron en México 3.408 agresiones contra la prensa, equivalentes a una cada 14 horas; un incremento del 62% con relación al sexenio anterior, según la organización independiente Artículo 19. Estos ataques incluyeron 47 periodistas asesinados y cuatro desaparecidos. El mandatario argentino, Javier Milei, publicó en X, en agosto pasado, “periodistas en llamas”, texto en el que justificaba atacar periodistas en las redes sociales. El salvadoreño Nayib Bukele, también tiene a la prensa independiente en apuros, tanto que obligó al periódico El Faro a trasladar parte de sus operaciones a Costa Rica, país que por cierto ha vivido inéditas presiones contra la prensa independiente durante la última administración. En síntesis, el deterioro democrático pasa por el debilitamiento del periodismo y los periodistas: desde los ciberataques que conjuntan troles mercenarios, lawfare, las persecuciones, encarcelaciones y el exilio, hasta el uso de publicidad con fines políticos, el acoso fiscal y otras formas de amedrentamiento. Para profundizar en este tema conversaremos mañana con el experimentado periodista Eduardo Ulibarri Bilbao.
In this insightful episode, Dustin Burleson interviews Ashley Goodall, author of The Problem with Change and co-author of Nine Lies About Work. They explore the pitfalls of constant organizational change and its negative impact on human performance, uncovering practical strategies to create stability and empower teams. Ashley draws from decades of experience at Cisco and Deloitte to offer a fresh perspective on leadership, team culture, and performance management.Ashley doesn't hold back as he explains how organizations often confuse improvement with change, assuming that one naturally leads to the other. He points out how relentless transformations—whether they're mergers, reorgs, or new systems—disrupt employees' sense of certainty, control, and belonging. These disruptions can leave people feeling untethered, like they're just waiting for the next upheaval to arrive. It's no wonder, he notes, that employees often roll their eyes when leaders announce, “We're so excited about this new change!”Dustin then steers the conversation toward solutions, exploring why teams—not companies—are the real heart of an organization. Ashley explains that while it's easy to talk about “company culture,” the truth is, culture happens on a much smaller scale. It's in the teams where people feel connected, supported, and motivated—or not. He makes a compelling case for investing in team leaders, those unsung heroes who create environments where employees can do their best work.The two also dig into Ashley's innovative approach to performance management, which he implemented at Deloitte and Cisco. Instead of the usual annual reviews that focus on ratings and past performance, Ashley championed a weekly check-in system. This simple yet powerful shift helps employees get the guidance and support they need in real time, not six months too late. Dustin marvels at how such a small change can have such a big impact, strengthening engagement, performance, and trust within teams.Toward the end, the discussion takes a broader view. Ashley emphasizes the importance of giving employees “running room”—a term borrowed from Bob Woodward—that speaks to the space and trust leaders can provide. It's not about micromanaging or constant prodding; it's about creating an environment where employees feel empowered to do their best work. For Ashley, this starts with treating employees as human beings, not just numbers on a spreadsheet. Dustin wholeheartedly agrees, sharing how these insights can help leaders rethink their approach to change and performance in their own organizations. Practical Takeaways:Rethink the frequency and necessity of organizational change initiatives.Prioritize team-level culture and equip leaders to create supportive environments.Adopt weekly "check-ins" as a transformative tool for performance management.Evaluate change initiatives for their balance of pros and cons to avoid unnecessary disruption.Links:Learn more about Ashley GoodallGet your copy of The Problem with ChangeGet your copy of Nine Lies About Work***The Burleson Box is brought to you by Stax Payments:Save Big on Transaction Fees: Boost Your Bottom Line with Stax Payments.Did you know that your practice can start saving thousands of dollars on your monthly processing costs with our preferred payments partner, Stax?

[SEGMENT 2-1 Trump's presser 1 Trump's Press Conference: A Stand-Up Routine Opening Line:You ever notice how Trump can turn a simple announcement into a three-ring circus? I say this affectionately. I went to the circus once as a kid, so I rather enjoy waking up each day to a Trump presidency, and watching him tame Leftists like the ringmaster he is. He's at Mar-a-Lago with a golden megaphone: “Ladies and gentlemen, presenting my greatest trick—making $100 billion investments look like pocket change!”On the Border Wall:Trump's talking about the border wall again: “We'll sell the leftover materials. It's almost a criminal act not to!” Yeah, Joe, why didn't you list it on Craigslist? I mean, you already left the gate wide open; might as well let someone get a deal on the fence. [SEGMENT 2-2] Trump's presser 2 On Changing Personalities:Trump says, “The first term everybody was fighting me. In this term, everybody wants to be my friend. I don't know. My personality changed or something.” Yeah, because when Trump says he's changed, it's not subtle. It's like going from wearing a red tie to a gold one and calling it rebranding.The ‘Changed Man' Narrative:Jeff Bezos even called him “a changed man.” That's rich coming from the guy who changed bookstores into warehouses. Bezos probably walked into Mar-a-Lago and said, “Wow, you've changed, Mr. President.” And Trump, sipping his Diet Coke, went, “No, Jeff, you've changed. Look at those muscles. Amazon Prime delivering gains!”Washington's the Real Change:Maggie Haberman says it's not Trump who changed—it's Washington. She's right! Washington's doing that thing where they pretend they're nice to the boss right before performance reviews. Suddenly, all these old foes are “friends.” Mitch McConnell probably sent a Christmas card that said, “To my bestie, DJT. Let's build back better… walls!”The Biden Void:Politico says part of Trump's new glow-up is because Biden has “disappeared.” The guy's so invisible, he's practically playing Where's Waldo? on the world stage. Meanwhile, Trump's doing press conferences, fielding drone conspiracies, and even making friends with RFK Jr., saying he's “not as radical as you'd think.” That's Trump-speak for, “He hasn't made fun of me... yet.”On Drones:Speaking of drones, Trump says, “The government knows what's happening.” Sure they do, Mr. President. They know about the drones, just like they know where all the missing socks go after laundry day. But hey, at least it's consistent with Washington's usual stance: “We'll look into it… eventually.”So, Trump's personality may not have changed, but the audience sure has. The first time, it was hostile reporters and a frosty reception. Now, it's business leaders, ex-critics, and even Jeff Bezos, all cozying up to the golden ticket. Trump's not just running for president again—he's auditioning for Best Drama and Best Comedy.Sources:Full Trump quote and Axios coverage: AP VideoHaberman's NYT commentary: NYT AnalysisPolitico Playbook insights: Politico[SEGMENT 2-3] Trump's presser 3 President Trump spoke to the press, like any good leader should do routinely and COHERENTLY. And his presser has everybody talking. From “he's changed” to he's confident, people act as if Trump is a new man. He's not. He's the same guy he used to be, but he has a lot more knowledge of what he's up against. Since he became president-elect, Trump has met with Silicon Valley billionaires including Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Apple CEO Tim Cook and Google CEO Sundar Pichai. He revealed he had also met with Google co-founder Sergey Brin. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos will meet with him this week, Trump said. “We have a lot of great executives coming in — the top executives, the top bankers, they're all calling,” he said. “It's like a complete opposite from the first one.” [X] SB – CN on Trump and the newly freed so-called hostage I've seen the change in others, particularly the media, who by the way is running scared and for good reason. Trump is suing them, winning, and threatens to keep suing. I haven't seen Leftists this scared until the last time Biden took the stairs. No, actually since he farted in front of Camilla, and his staffers thought he soiled his Underoos. [SEGMENT 2-4] Trump presser 4 [X] SB – CNN Jake Tapper on Trump suing the media Overstate Trump's friendliness and genialness at this press conference. Lawsuit against ABC won't be the end. Bob Woodward, Pulitzer (on Russia hoax) Iowa poll. Ann Seltzer 60 Minutes – editing Wildly ridiculous Trump is going rogue because he won. He's been emboldened Personal. Angry. Bad poll. On the Media:He calls out the press: “We have to straighten out the media—it's very corrupt!” And then takes questions from the very people he's roasting. That's like insulting the chef while they're serving your dinner: “This steak's probably garbage... but keep it coming, so I can keep sending it back!”On DeSantis and Rubio:Trump's softening on DeSantis and Rubio, calling Ron's work “a good job.” That's Trumpese for “He hasn't screwed up... yet.” And as for Rubio, Trump's letting Florida decide whether to keep him or send him packing. Imagine Marco hearing that, sweating bullets thinking, “Please, not another nickname!”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

From September 21, 2021: A new book by Bob Woodward and Robert Costa contains reporting about several controversial actions by Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley in late 2000 and early 2021, regarding conversations with his Chinese counterparts, his discussion with senior military officers about following standard nuclear procedures (if need be), and reaching out to others like the CIA and NSA directors to remind them to watch everything closely. Were each of these reported actions proper for a Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and why? And what about all of this coming out in books?To talk through it all, David Priess sat down with an A-team on civil-military relations. Peter Feaver is a civil-military relations expert at Duke University and director of the Triangle Institute for Security Studies. He served in National Security Council staff positions in both the Bill Clinton and the George W. Bush administrations. Kori Schake is the director of foreign and defense policy at the American Enterprise Institute who has worked in the Joint Staff J5, in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and in the National Security Council's staff, as well as the State Department's policy planning staff during Bush 43's administration.

A Note from James:"That was insane. Kevin Shipp, 17 years with the CIA, then, he had some wild experiences that led to him leaving the CIA. He wrote, just published a book that he published without the CIA's permission. It's called Twilight of the Shadow Government.
