Host Reed Galen is joined by Olivia Troye, the Former Homeland Security & Counterterrorism Advisor to Vice President Mike Pence, and the current Executive Director of 97Percent, a bipartisan gun safety organization. They discuss the rise of political violence, why the GOP is exponentially becoming more radicalized, and why it’s so crucial for our democracy’s future to hold Donald Trump (and his insurrectionist supporters) responsible for their actions. Plus, what responsible gun ownership looks like and how to diffuse the political polarization around the issue. Be sure to follow Olivia Troye on social media and keep up with her work with 97Percent. For more from Reed Galen, be sure to subscribe to “The Home Front”.
