  • Ep. 141: Dr. Mary Trump on Escaping the Nightmare Black Hole That is the Age of Trump and the MAGAverse
    Sep 12 2024

    This is special joint episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show and The Truth Report.

    Dr. Mary Trump is a clinical psychologist and businesswoman. She is also Donald Trump’s niece.

    Mary Trump is the author of the books Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man and The Reckoning: Our Nation's Trauma and Finding a Way to Heal. Mary Trump’s new book is Who Could Ever Love You: A Family Memoir.

    Mary Trump is a friend of the podcast and is always so generous with her teaching and sharing. She reflects on the state of our individual and collective mental and emotional health over these last 8 or so weeks, and the importance of balancing joy and hope about Kamala Harris with the reality that there is so much hard work to be done until (and after) Election Day.

    Mary Trump also discusses the personal cost of being a real member of the Resistance and the pro-democracy movement to our relationships and lives. In this expansive conversation, Mary shares her thoughts about why we must imagine a world beyond the Age of Trump and then do everything we can to make it a reality.

    Chauncey DeVega provides “proof of life” and shares how he was under attack by the super DNC cooties bug and how that left him discombobulated and delayed the podcast. Chauncey also shares some quick thoughts about the first debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump and how the mainstream news media continues the “sanewashing” of the obviously very dangerous aspiring Dictator Trump.

    And Chauncey DeVega honors the titan James Earl Jones who passed away on Monday and is now one with the Force.

  • Ep. 139: Heather Cox Richardson Warns That We Can Still Stop Dictator Trump and the American Fascist Movement
    Jun 14 2024

    Heather Cox Richardson is Professor of History at Boston College. She is the author of numerous books including her most recent, Democracy Awakening. Richardson’s Substack newsletter “Letters From an American” is essential reading and is subscribed to by 1,400,000 people.

    She explains how the study of American history and peoples’ movements to expand real democracy are critical for defeating Trumpism, American neofascism and global illiberalism today. Heather also reflects on how her background as a working-class person helped to prepare her for the intellectually, spiritually, emotionally, and physically demanding work of defending American democracy in her role and responsibility as someone who thinks and writes publicly for a living.
