'Skullduggery' political podcast: 'The GOP’s flight from facts (with Jon Meacham)' — May 8, 2021

Presidential historian, Pulitzer Prize-winning author and former Newsweek editor Jon Meacham has a new podcast called “Fate of Fact,” in which he investigates how American politics — particularly in the Republican Party, as Meacham says — became detached not only from our constitutional system of checks and balances but from reality itself. Meacham joins Michael Isikoff, Daniel Klaidman and Victoria Bassetti on this episode, which contains a deep and important conversation about history, our tumultuous present moment and where the country might go from here.

GUEST:

  • Jon Meacham (@jmeacham), Pulitzer Prize-winning author; presidential historian
