The State of Human Rights Under Trump with Dr. Bill Armaline

As the Trump administration reshapes America's role in global politics, what does it mean for human rights at home and abroad? Dr. Bill Armaline, professor of sociology and founder of the Human Rights Institute at San Jose State University, returns to Faithful Politics to unpack the shifting landscape of U.S. foreign policy, the ICC’s role in holding world leaders accountable, and the economic and political implications of America's retreat from global leadership. We also dive into China's rise, the power of international labor movements, and what the next four years could mean for climate change, nuclear policy, and working-class Americans.
