Democracy Awakened (with Heather Cox Richardson)
Summary
Heather Cox Richardson, a Boston College history professor and author of the “Letters From An American,” newsletter, joins Preet to discuss her new book, “Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America.” They discuss the origins of the terms “liberal” and “conservative,” a 1937 anti-FDR manifesto that presaged today’s GOP ideology, and the ways in which the nation might move beyond the chaos of the Trump years.
Plus, a bombshell ruling against Trump in the New York State fraud case, and NJ Senator Menendez indicted on federal bribery charges.
