Episode Description
Weaponized Government is not just about politics. It is about the Left’s capture of America’s institutions and the quiet destruction of self-government.
New York Post reporter and editorial board member Seth Barron joins The P.A.S. Report Podcast to discuss his new book, Weaponized: The Left’s Capture and Destruction of America’s Sacred Institutions. Barron exposes how citizenship, policing, housing, and education have been transformed from institutions that serve the people into tools used to centralize power, weaken local control, and impose a radical political agenda on ordinary Americans.
