Did the People Demand a King? (CIB #228)

The first month of the second Trump administration has looked almost exactly like what you might imagine it would look like if the president decided that the law, broadly speaking, simply doesn’t matter. We discuss that in terms of the specific examples of Mayor Eric Adams, mafia-like demands on Ukraine, and utter contempt for the notion of a free press. Listen, if you must! Has something we said, or failed to say, made you FEEL something? You can tell us all about it by joining the conversation on our Substack or you can send us an email here. Enjoy!
