It Sounds A LOT Like Authoritarianism To Us

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss what Donald Trump is already putting into place, including Tom Holman as border czar (family separation will be a feature, not a bug), while mainstream media are all pledging to normalize Trump even more than they had been doing. The desperation from the Democrats is palpable, going so far as to suggest that Supreme Court justice Sonia Sotomayor retire right now.

I’d like to emphasize that Vance, Opus Dei, Evangelicals, etc, will all consider any win, including an unscrupulous one, evidence of God’s favor for them and their undertakings.
Necessary listening, IMO

Jared and Nick show up every week (and then some) with historical and/or contextual perspective and sometimes insight into who and how the wheels are greased. I LEARN STUFF every episode. In addition, they acknowledge our current reality in a way that we HEAR the motivation/emotion in their voices. Their investment in the world is palpable — and in a way that feels like pure humanity in a world where too little of that seems evident. I can’t say enough about this podcast or them.
