Hey, everybody. It's Jared Y. Sexton of the Munkwreck podcast. Before we get to this show, I wanted to talk very quickly because my new book, American Rule, How a Nation Conquered the World, but Failed Its People, is coming out this week. And I'm incredibly excited. And I just want to tell you a little bit about it.

American rule is a reckoning with the real history of America and an intentional dismantling of the propaganda and weaponized myths used by people like Donald Trump to consolidate power and expedite wealth.

This book is meant to explain this current crisis, brings some order to the chaos, and help to find a way forward.

I'm really proud of this book.

It is one of the hardest things I've ever done,

and I'm really hopeful that maybe it might make a difference.

I hope you'll check it out, and I hope that it finds you well.

And now, on to the show.

And I have a sneaking suspicion, and no, I have no firsthand knowledge, but a sneaking suspicion,

should our president be reelected, God willing, that he will dust off the Insurrection Act that

was first passed by the Jeffersonian Republicans and used by Jefferson and used by so many

presidents since Jefferson, and he will have to use it to put down the enemy.

Top Communications official at the powerful cabinet department in charge of combating the

coronavirus accused career government scientists on Sunday of, quote, sedition in their handling

of the pandemic and warned that left- wing hit squads were preparing for armed

insurrection after the election.

Hey everybody.

Welcome to the Muckrake podcast.

I am Jared Yates Sexton.

We have a really great show ahead for today.

And great's a weird word to use because obviously so much is terrible right now.

But later on, we have an exclusive interview with Jeff Charlotte, author of The Family.
