They Want You Divided — MAGA 2.0 Is Breaking the System
Americans are angry, exhausted, and divided — but not for the reasons we’re told.
In this episode, Joseph Steagall sits down with Rocky Haag, a politically agnostic thinker, to explore why people feel unseen, why institutions are losing trust, and how AI, endless wars, and economic pressure are reshaping society.
