Rick Wilson's The Enemies List Authoritarian Parallel: US and Russia
This week on The Enemies List, Rick is joined by Dr. Fiona Hill, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institute and an expert on Russia. Together, they discuss growing similarities between the political landscapes of the US and Russia, particularly highlighting the rise of authoritarian tendencies of Presidents Putin and Trump and the increasing concentration of presidential power in both countries. The conversation also covers the impact of economic factors and class conflict on politics, the role of NATO, and the global implications of Russia's actions in Ukraine.
