Tom Letizia

This morning’s episode of The Middle Ground featured a thought-provoking conversation with constitutional attorney Bradley Schrager of Bravo Schrager LLP. Host Tom Letizia guided listeners through some of the most pressing legal and political developments, with Schrager offering sharp, nonpartisan insight into each.

  • Biden’s doctor and the Fifth Amendment – Bradley unpacked the legal and political significance of Dr. Kevin O’Connor invoking the Fifth before Congress, raising questions about medical transparency, executive accountability, and the limits of privacy for sitting presidents.
  • The Comey & Brennan investigations – Schrager weighed in on renewed federal scrutiny of the former FBI and CIA directors, asking whether this is about overdue accountability—or politically motivated retribution.
  • ICE raids and civil protest rights – In light of the recent armed standoff at a California cannabis farm, Bradley explained the constitutional tensions around immigration enforcement, federal use of military-style tactics, and protester rights on U.S. soil.
  • New York City’s mayoral race – With progressive Zohran Mamdani now the Democratic nominee, Bradley assessed the legal feasibility of his most controversial proposals—from arresting foreign leaders to nationalizing services—and what his rise means for the future of municipal law and national politics.

Throughout the program, Schrager provided a legal vantage point that cut through the headlines, offering clarity on the deeper constitutional stakes behind today’s political firestorms.
