The American right has traded normal politics for moral panics

This week, Joshua Holland kicks off the show with a look at how the GOP is leveraging their persecution complex to block efforts to study and combat violent extremism--and then some real news from our phony "border crisis." 

And then we'll be joined by author Brynn Tannehill, whose latest book is titled American Fascism: How the GOP is Subverting Democracy, to talk about the nature of moral panics, how they have led to genocides in the past and why it's important to understand that history as the GOP is poised to claim The House's investigative powers.
