54:11Now PlayingIn a rare, unfiltered live conversation at the University of Virginia's Center for Politics, Jim Acosta sits down with former DC Metropolitan Police officer Michael Fanone — one of the most brutally honest voices in American public life. Fanone was grabbed, beaten, and tased while defending the Capitol. But what followed — the threats to his family, the career destruction, the years of speaking out while others went silent. No studio. No teleprompter. Just two people holding the line on truth.
