Is the FBI Out to Get Trump?Jan 30, 201820mGuest: Ryan Vogel, JD, Director of the Center for National Security Studies, Utah Valley University Republicans in Congress are split over whether or not they need to pass a law that would make it more difficult for President Trump to fire Robert Mueller, the special prosecutor hired by the FBI to look into Russian meddling in the election and whether the Trump campaign colluded in that. Both the New York Times and Washington Post have reported that Trump ordered Mueller fired last summer, but his White House attorney refused.  President Trump and his allies insist the Russia probe is politically motivated by Democrats and that the FBI is out to get him.

Do Brain Lesions Make Criminals?Jan 30, 201821mGuest: Michael Fox, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor of Neurology, Harvard Medical School, Co-Director, Deep Brain Stimulation Program, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center In 1966, a lone gunman named Charles Whitman perpetrated what’s often considered the first public mass shooting in modern America. He climbed a 300-foot tower at the University of Texas and shot 36 people, killing 14 of them before he was fatally shot by police. An autopsy found a tumor in Whitman’s brain, which some scientists believe may have contributed to his murderous behavior. We know that brain injuries and lesions can change someone’s personality, but can it make someone a violent criminal?
