In his new book, ‘Shadows of the Republic: The Rebirth of Fascism in America and How to Defeat It for Good,’ lawyer and author Omer Aziz documents the resurgence of fascism in the United States and lays out a playbook to fight back against it.
Now, in a timely interview on ‘Mehdi Unfiltered,’ Aziz, who most recently served as speechwriter to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, warns Mehdi that “the much more dangerous part of fascism is the fascists in suits.”
“It is using the machinery of constitutional government in a partisan way to make it subservient to the political party and then to turn it against ordinary citizens, dissidents, free thinkers, journalists,” Aziz says.
Mehdi also asks Aziz about:
Antifascist protesters being deemed a domestic terrorism threat by the Trump administration
If he agrees with comparisons between Trump and Hitler
Elon Musk’s role in the global fascist project
The three most important points in his antifascist playbook
His former boss calling Trump’s war in Iran “worth it.”
