  • Summary

  • This week, we're examining the disturbing parallels between past and present as we approach the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing. We'll explore how the extremist rhetoric that drove Timothy McVeigh has found new life in today's political landscape.

    We dive into the Republican propaganda machine's decades-long strategy of relentlessly blaming liberals for everything—from Newt Gingrich's exploitation of tragedies to the current rewriting of January 6th as patriotic heroism. We'll show how the right's villainization of Democrats created the conditions for both McVeigh's terrorism and today's embrace of similar extremism.

    Plus, we'll cover the troubling developments of Trump's second term: government agencies dismantled, whistleblowers threatened, court orders ignored, and economic policies that threaten ordinary Americans. Join us as we connect the dots between the monsters of our past and the reflections we're seeing today.
