War Criminal-in-Chief | The Coffee Klatch, April 11, 2026

About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of the U.S. war with Iran and whether Trump is a war criminal, featuring a conversation with journalist Amy Goodman.

Friends, Today, Heather and I examine this wildly horrendous week and tackle a basic question: Did the United States win its war with Iran, or lose it? We also take a deep dive into whether Trump is a war criminal for having threatened to cause the death of an entire civilization. And we talk with our friend journalist Amy Goodman, who’s out with a new movie about her life speaking truth to power. So, please pull up a chair, grab a cuppa, and join in the conversation. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit robertreich.substack.com/subscribe
