Former US AG on Trump's 'Serious Threat'
Amanpour
Apr 1, 2025

President Trump and his team continue to test the boundaries of the US Constitution, from detaining students on visas due to their speech, to repeatedly floating the idea of a third term. Among his many executive orders, Trump has targeted major practices and their lawyers. Alberto Gonzales is the former White House Counsel to George W. Bush and the former US Attorney General, who warned in September that he viewed Trump as "perhaps the most serious threat to the rule of law in a generation." He joins the show. 

Also on today's show: Idit Ohel, mother of Israeli hostage Alon Ohel; Justin Levitt, Professor, Loyola Law School / Former Senior Policy Adviser for Democracy & Voting Rights, Biden Administration
