    582 | George Packer: The Emergency - The Post-Literate Age and the Unwinding of American Liberalism

    The Atlantic | A Post-Literate Age: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/10/journalism-literature-media-trump/684752/ Realignment Newsletter: https://therealignment.substack.com/ Realignment Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/shop/therealignment Email the Show: realignmentpod@gmail.com George Packer, Staff Writer at The Atlantic and author of The Emergency, returns to The Realignment.
