Season 3 Episode 5- DOJ Then & Now: Trade, National Security, and What’s Changed
Thursday, 22 January, 2026
In this episode, host Olga Torres is joined by Alamdar Hamdani, former United States Attorney for the Southern District of Texas, one of the largest U.S. Attorney’s Offices in the Department of Justice. Together, they examine how the DOJ’s national security and trade enforcement mission has evolved in recent years, with a heightened focus on tariffs, supply chains, export controls, and sanctions enforcement. Drawing on Alamdar’s leadership experience at DOJ, the conversation explores the growing coordination among federal agencies, the government’s expanding use of data analytics, and why robust compliance and data-driven risk management are increasingly critical for companies navigating increasingly interconnected global trade and security risks.
