330: Does America Exist Without Democracy and Rule of Law? (with Barton Gellman)

Host Reed Galen is joined by Journalist, Author, and Senior Advisor at the Brennan Center for Justice, Barton Gellman. They discuss Barton’s recent pivot from journalism to joining the fight for our democracy, the dangerous threat our nation’s institutions face if an authoritarian wins the presidency, and why a significant segment of Americans feel such a strong sense of dissatisfaction even though their quality of life has generally stayed the same.
