Fake The Nation

108. Fascism Doesn't Happen Overnight (w/ Judah Friedlander, Stephanie Butnick)

Comedian Judah Friedlander (30 Rock) and journalist Stephanie Butnick (Unorthodox) join Negin to chat about the legality of Trump’s new claim that collusion is not a crime. The panel also throws out their predictions for the outcome of the Mueller investigation. Then, they dig into the potential government shutdown and Trump’s new tax cut proposal. Plus, is Twitter making everyone a comedian? This episode is sponsored by Psyonix and SugarBearHair (<a href="http://www.sugarbearhair.com.com/FAKE" target="_blank">www.sugarbearhair.com.com/FAKE</a>).

Hosted by Negin Farsad, Fake the Nation is all the comedy about politics without any of the politics about politics. Every week Negin and a cast of her funniest, smartest and most politically astute friends (John Fugelsang, Lizz Winstead, Dean Obeidallah and others) gather 'round the political roundtable to break down the news, make you laugh, think, and deliver a gut punch to the American political system.
