About this episode
What are we all whining about?
On this episode of “What Rough Beast,” the great Turkish journalist Aslı Aydıntaşbaş tells Americans to grow up. To finish of Musk and MAGA, we need to marshal the power of the states. Fire up those famous checks and balances. Don’t be scared of infighting.
And—for heaven’s sake—get an emcee with rizz.
To Virginia, this sounds easier said than done.
