On this edition of Empire Has No Clothes, Matt, Kelley, and Daniel speak to Congressman Warren Davidson, Republican of Ohio, and one of the foremost advocates of constitutional war powers in the House.

They also talk about the toxic U.S.-Saudi relationship and whether reform is finally—finally!—right around the corner.
