20:32Now PlayingMolly Jong-Fast welcomes political commentator Charlie Sykes for a wide-ranging and urgent conversation about the alarming trajectory of American democracy. They discuss former President Donald Trump's increasingly open authoritarian rhetoric, including threats against political opponents and control over media institutions. The conversation delves into historical comparisons with global autocrats, the erosion of civil institutions, and the complicity or silence of key players in government, business, and media. They highlight the cultural impact of figures like Jimmy Kimmel in resisting censorship, the consequences of institutional capitulation, and the broader implications for free speech and democratic norms. With a mix of concern and cautious optimism, the discussion underscores the stakes for the future of American governance and the importance of individual and institutional resistance to authoritarian tendencies.
