Sarah Kendzior on the State of U.S. Politics and ‘the Erosion of America’

Category: News & Politics

Description:

Secretary of State Pompeo confirmed Monday that he asked President Trump to fire the State Department’s Inspector General, leaving it without a watchdog. This follows Attorney General Barr and the Department of Justice dropping the case against former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, despite his guilty plea. For author Sarah Kendzior, these moves are just more evidence of what she has been warning about for years — President Trump’s authoritarian tendencies and the growing threats to checks and balances and the rule of law. Kendzior joins us to talk about her new book “Hiding in Plain Sight: The Invention of Donald Trump and the Erosion of America.”
