Donald Trump is a fascist

Although Donald Trump is president of the world's foremost democracy, he is treating America like a fascist state.

In a conversation with Southern Connecticut State University professor of modern European history Dr. Troy Paddock, pod co-hosts Laurie Lattimore-Volkmann and Brad Raley discuss all the ways Trump is showing his true colors as a fascist leader ... and the GOP is happy to comply.

Estate Sale: the selling out of American democracy
American institutions are under attack...and that means our democracy is at stake.
Democracy depends on a free press, a government for the people, a just legal system and separate-but-free church.

Yet, we have a corrupt U.S. president, a partisan Supreme Court, a power-hungry white evangelical bloc and a lazy press - which is revealing just how much our American values are being sold out.

With a lot of informative guests and a few F-bombs, co-hosts Laurie Lattimore-Volkmann and Brad Raley are going to change that.
