That was good.
We're considered one of the contenders to win it all this year.
I I hope that happens.
But whatever happens on the field, um just having this time with close friends and their families, like that, that was the victory.
victory for me and that was a moment of joy.
Each.
nice to have the social aspect.
Oh
All right.
Okay.
You guys ready?
I'm Carlos Osada, a columnist uh for New York Times Opinion.
And I'm here today with my colleague Michelle Cottle, who covers national politics for Times Opinion.
Michelle, it's great to see you back here.
We're also joined by the historian Nicole Hemmer, who's a professor at Vanderbilt and focuses on media and conservatism and the presidency.
Nikki, welcome, big welcome.
The reason we wanted to have you is because today we're going to talk about a figure from the country's past who still looms quite large, and that is the lawyer and all-purpose political fixer Roy Cohn, who's also the subject of a new biography by Kai Bird and Susan Goldmark, uh, called very unsubtly American Scoundrel.
Cohn came to national prominence and infamy.
During the Red Scare of the 50s, when he was chief counsel to Senator Joe McCarthy.
Uh so not only was he a force behind McCarthyism and something of a pop culture villain is what he became over time, but as Donald Trump's lawyer in the 70s and 80s, he also really helped shape a lot of Trump's approach to power, which of course we're still living with today.
