Pulitzer-prize-winning progressive journalist Glenn Greenwald joins the show to discuss how woke puritanism and identity politics have corrupted the center-left establishment and liberal media. Then, Glenn breaks down the surveillance state and why he thinks President Trump should pardon whistleblower Edward Snowden. To wrap up the episode, Brad and Glenn debate Medicare-for-All and the proper role of government in the economy, discuss how Glenn and his husband ended up with 27 (!!!) dogs, and hear Glenn's most controversial food take.
