PV Democrats June Meeting

For our June 2025 meeting, we were joined via Zoom by New York Times Best Selling author Craig Unger. Craig has written six books on the Republican Party’s relentless, multi-pronged assault against American democracy, including "House of Bush, House of Saud;" "House of Trump, House of Putin," and the current "Den of Spies." A Harvard graduate, Unger’s journalism has appeared in The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Guardian, and many others. His media commentary spans all major outlets. His extensive reporting documents a powerful case that the Republican Party has become the greatest threat to American democracy -- all done in their heedless, corrupt pursuit of power and money. At only the 100th day in Trump's second presidential term, our democracy has been severely damaged, our courts compromised, congress sidelined and in disarray, our international standing greatly diminished. How did we get here, and how can we restore American democracy in full along with our standing in the world? The acclaimed author and media commentator Craig Unger addressed these questions, along with Trump’s decades as a Russian asset, Trump’s recent visit with the Saudis and more.
