Show Notes

Today, Thom takes a deep dive into understanding authoritarianism with scholar Ruth Ben-Ghiat, author of 'Strongmen: Mussolini to the Present', followed by a fascinating discussion with Meagan-Hatcher Mays of the activist group Indivisible, on the problems we must tackle if we are to keep our republic. 

Was Trump practicing the use of the military and secret police to establish a strongman dictator? What stopped him? How can we avoid another lying con-man taking over our nation who, like Trump, truly doesn't care if Americans live or die? Must we rein in Facebook to protect Democracy?
