Listen "Olivia Troye: Military Parades and Doll Rationing"
Episode Synopsis
Charlie Sykes is joined by former White House Homeland Security advisor Olivia Troye to unpack the surreal and sobering first 100 days of Trump’s return to power—from authoritarian impulses and economic meltdowns to doll rationing and military parades. They discuss how fringe figures like Laura Loomer are influencing national security decisions, the disturbing escalation of deportation policies, and the eerie complacency of American institutions. As the courts push back and allies rethink their trust in the U.S., the conversation turns to whether America is facing a generational crisis—or a historic one. Hosted on Acast.
