Tom Joscelyn and Bill Kristol discuss the launch of the Civil Defense Institute, a nonpartisan investigative research organization that hones in on people, organizations, and networks whose conduct undermines civil society and the freedom of Americans to participate in public life.
They examine how the Heritage Foundation has promoted Christian nationalist ideology, trace the origins of today’s extremism, and explore why major conservative organizations now openly embrace ideas they would have rejected a decade ago.
