Episode description

In a 2022 poll, a majority of Americans said they believe their government was corrupt and rigged, and more than a quarter believed it might soon be necessary to take up arms against it.

Hannah Barnes, associate editor, is joined by journalist and broadcaster Gabriel Gatehouse.
