Trump’s people are reshaping the US political system, gutting institutions, while selling scores with all enemies foreign and domestic. But is their push for mass deportations, and the abolition of DEI, the Department of Education, USAID and other soft power institutions really in the ruling class’s long term interests. Are we witnessing the collapse of an empire, or simply a reactionary reconfiguration of power? And how should those of us who oppose U.S. imperialism make sense of these contradictions? To break it all down, Rania Khalek is joined by Breakthrough News editor-in-chief Ben Becker. Watch the full episode by becoming a patron: Patreon.com/BreakthroughNews
