In this episode, Bill reconnects with Ari Berman, National Voting Rights Correspondent for Mother Jones, to discuss potential threats to the fairness and legality of upcoming elections. Berman emphasizes concerns about former President Trump’s potential interference and outlines how the federal government’s recent actions, such as demanding state voter rolls, could suppress voter turnout. The discussion highlights fears of racial gerrymandering, the implications of the Save America Act, and the persistence of unfounded voter fraud claims. They also critique the limited support from Republicans for election integrity and consider the importance of safeguarding democratic processes against federal overreach. Bill recommends Ari’s latest book, Minority Rule: The Right-Wing Attack on the Will of the People―and the Fight to Resist It.
