Richard Painter, former Chief White House Ethics Lawyer under George W. Bush and author of American Nero, joins us on FOX 10 Talks to discuss the escalating conflict with Iran and President Trump’s recent controversial rhetoric. Painter analyzes the legality of "Operation Epic Fury" and the President’s social media posts, including the suggestion that he could "get rid of an entire civilization." As a professor of corporate law and a fierce government watchdog, Painter breaks down why he believes these actions bypass Congress, violate the Constitution, and put the global rule of law at risk.
