Was Russiagate the biggest political hoax in American history?

Author and political commentator Drew Thomas Allen joins A.J. Rice on Dangerous Laughter for a hard-hitting conversation about the Trump–Russia investigation, the Steele dossier, Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign, the Obama administration, the FBI, the CIA, and the role of the media in shaping one of the most controversial political narratives of the modern era.

Drawing from his book, Clinton Hoax, Obama Coup: The Declassified Story of the Trump–Russia Delusion, Drew explains why he believes Russiagate was more than a partisan scandal. The discussion examines declassified documents, intelligence-community actions, political messaging, media coverage, and the lasting impact these events had on Donald Trump’s presidency and public trust in American institutions.

A.J. and Drew also discuss the deep state, government accountability, censorship, election-year politics, the Hunter Biden laptop story, and what Americans should learn from the way major political narratives are created and promoted.
