Andrea Bernstein, host of the WNYC/ProPublica podcast Trump, Inc, is interviewed by Masha Gessen, the New Yorker journalist and National Book Award-winning author, about Bernstein’s “gobsmacking” new book, American Oligarchs: The Kushners, the Trumps, and the Marriage of Money and Power.
“Anyone concerned about American democracy should read Bernstein’s devastating exposé,” said Dark Money author Jane Mayer. Join them for a sure-to-be explosive conversation about how the two families rose from immigrant roots to the pinnacle of US power. Drawing on hundreds of thousands of documents, many previously unseen or long forgotten, Bernstein reveals a saga of survival and loss, crime and betrayal, revealing how the two dynasties encouraged and profited from a system of political dark money that has pushed America to the precipice of oligarchy.
