How MAGA Took Over Congress with NYT’s Annie Karni and Luke Broadwater
Description
How did MAGA come to control Congress? It’s the story New York Times reporters Annie Karni and Luke Broadwater chart in a new book exposing what they call the unparalleled dysfunction of the 118th congress, where Republicans ground federal legislation to a standstill and pushed moderates out, to the point that “the moments Congress worked felt like brief interruptions of a long fall down a rabbit hole.” We talk to Karni and Broadwater about how MAGA extremism became mainstream in Congress, along with the latest political news. Their book is “Mad House: How Donald Trump, MAGA Mean Girls, a Former Used Car Salesman, a Florida Nepo Baby, and a Man with Rats in His Walls Broke Congress.”
Guests:
Annie Karni, congressional correspondent, New York Times; co-author, "Mad House"
Luke Broadwater, White House reporter, New York Times; previous congressional correspondent, The Times; co author,"Mad House"
