The January 6 insurrection. The Big Lie. Covid. Nancy Pelosi’s fear of Trump launching nuclear weapons before leaving office. Carol Leonnig and Phil Rucker, authors of the #1 bestseller, A Very Stable Genius, are back with another extraordinary and often exclusive account of Trump’s final year in office: I Alone Can Fix It.

Carol Leonnig, national investigative reporter at The Washington Post and longtime news contributor to NBC/MSNBC News, and Phil Rucker, senior Washington correspondent for The Washington Post and NBC/ MSNBC news analyst, enjoy unparalleled access to those who sat close to the president, and to Trump as well. And if you thought you knew it all, think again.

Their White House and Washington sources fill in gaps on Trump’s last year in office, because those sources were in the room at moments that still reverberate in our national consciousness. Leonnig and Rucker recount Trump’s longing to show his military might during the national Black Lives Matter protests. They detail the president’s reaction and complete inaction to the January 6 attack on the Capitol building, and his rampant paranoid delusions. Shocking. They expose who assisted Trump in his efforts to delegitimize the 2020 election results, and those who disrupted and thwarted Trump’s plan to continue his lies about election fraud.

Leonnig and Rucker have covered numerous presidential elections, election interference and security issues, and have earned Pulitzers and other distinguished awards for their peerless journalism.

In conversation with award-winning NBC/ MSNBC correspondent Jacob Soboroff. Jacob Soboroff’s book, Separated, created a national sensation and national dialogue about the separation of children from their parents at the US/Mexico border.

It has been a frightening period of time as far as I’m concerned. It’s still frightening. What the reporter said about fear..and feeling like forgotten people…that makes so much sense. This was a wonderful program and helped me understand a little more what’s going on.

Just discovered this channel, so glad I did. Its very similar to the Commonwealth Club based in San Francisco. What a great interview with two of my very favorite journalists conducted by another of my favorite journalists. I am now an ardent fan.

Those details, that these ardent authors uncovered, about Mango Mussolini, still ring true in March 2023. Never forget the Jan. 6th, 2021, insurrection, at our beloved Capitol in Washington D.C. He constantly lies & people die. Carol & Phillip called him out. TY.
