116: PHD In White-Trashology

James and Al are joined by author and Atlantic columnist Barton Gellman for a hard look at the threats to our democracy posed by the events of 1/6.  Is there a need for infiltration by law enforcement?  Why are politicians on the Right catering to the worst elements of the base?  And how do Democrats protect our system and keep winning?

Email your questions to James and Al at [email protected] or tweet them to @politicon.  

Make sure to include your city, we love to hear where you’re from!
