In just about two months, President Donald Trump has managed to thoroughly shake U.S. democratic structures to the core. From firing thousands of federal workers and plunging the U.S. into a trade war, to testing the limits of our three supposedly coequal branches of government, it's been a lot to process. And the constant chaos makes it hard to grasp what's actually happening, big picture: Are we watching a wannabe strongman fumble through enacting a policy agenda that will likely prove to be deeply unpopular, or are we actually watching the end of American Democracy as we've known it for roughly the last century. Ruth Ben-Ghiat, a professor at New York University and author of the book 'Strongmen,' explains what history can tell us about our current moment and what we can do about it. And in headlines: Venezuela said it would start accepting deportation flights from the U.S. again, Palestinian health officials said the death toll in Gaza has topped 50,000, and the White House said Second Lady Usha Vance is heading to Greenland… just for fun… scout's honor.

  • It's Monday, March 24th.

  • I'm Jane Coastin and this is what a Day.

  • The show that fully supports Louie and Ophelia.

  • Two otters that have run away from the new zoo and Adventure park in Green Bay, Wisconsin, run free.

  • Little otters run free.

  • On today's show, Venezuela says it will accept deep board tease.

  • And second lady Usha Vance is going to Greenland to watch some dog sled.

  • That's definitely the only reason she's going, just for a visit for dogs.

  • But let's start with perhaps the biggest question you might be asking yourself,

  • right how bad is all this going to get?

  • And how scared should I be?

  • Let's just set the stage here.

  • Right now,

  • the president of the United States is screaming on his personal social media website about impeaching judges who rule against him

  • while the government is disappearing migrants who may or may not be gang members to a nightmare prison in El Salvador and then posting about how funny it is on social media.

  • And the people closest to this administration all sound like Trump assistant Sebastian Gorka speaking to Newsmax on Friday.

  • And there is one person, according to the Constitution, according to the statutes of the nation,

  • who has the right to decide who can be in America, who are the aliens,

  • who are the foreigners who are allowed into the nation, and.

  • Who we keep out.
