Underhandedness. Trickery. Unscrupulous behavior. Skullduggery breaks down the conduct of Washington's political class, tracks the latest in conspiracy theories and disinformation campaigns coursing through social media — and who is pushing them — and keeps you up to date on the latest investigations into misbehavior by members of Congress as well as current and former government officials. Yahoo News’ veteran investigative journalists Michael Isikoff, Editor in Chief Daniel Klaidman, and Senior Council at States United Victoria Bassetti, break news, offer authoritative analysis on sensitive national security and law enforcement issues and draw intriguing historical parallels from decades of covering D.C. scandals. Come prepared to learn something every week.
In the debut episode of Skullduggery – a Yahoo News podcast and video series focused on Washington scandals in the Trump era and their impact on today's politics – co-hosts Michael Isikoff and Dan Klaidman discuss the 20th anniversary of the Monica Lewinsky scandal, a story they famously covered for Newsweek. Their first guest is former United States attorney general Eric Holder who talks about where he was when the Lewinsky scandal broke, his thoughts on Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 election and he even jokes about being Oprah’s running mate in 2020.<br><p> See <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://acast.com/privacy">acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
