Trump's re-election signifies a troubling increase in autocratic tendencies within the United States. The podcast Autocracy in America illustrates how traditional practices from the autocratic world are seeping into American society. It addresses various forms of political intimidation, violence, and the misuse of courts. Furthermore, the emphasis is on how the federal government is amplifying these behaviors—firing civil servants and promoting a culture reminiscent of fascism under the guise of freedom and democracy. This evolving landscape presents significant challenges for liberal values and democratic integrity in America.
