Robert Kagan and Bill Kristol: It's Already Happening Before our Eyes

Description

By de-prioritizing The Washington Post in his business empire, Jeff Bezos is showing exactly how a free press gets dismantled. Other corporate titans are also falling in line so they're not on the wrong side of Trump. Meanwhile, with the Klan-like rhetoric at Sunday's rally, MAGA is baring its teeth and showing us that its true essence is about white Christian supremacy. Plus, the Senate races, and Tim's reporting from outside MSG. 



Bob Kagan—who resigned from WAPO on Friday—and Bill Kristol join Tim Miller.



show notes:



Bill and Bob's conversation on authoritarianism in 2019

Bob's book, "Rebellion," published in April

Bob's 2016 piece warning how fascism could come to America

Very chilling listen. I didn't expect such cowardice from Bezos, particularly because they have repeatedly called out Trump's bullshit.

Tim I wonder if you and Bill and JVL and others in the bulwark are just feeling timid about what I'm about to say? the fact is that if Biden wanted to he could have Trump in prison due to his danger to the republic: his sedition, his treasonous theft of secret documents, incitement of insurrection, trying to overturn elections. And of course per the Supreme Court he could not be held legally accountable for official acts taken against Trump.
