A Conspiracy Of Dunces with Will Sommer

Jun.14.19

This week Will Sommer (@willsommer) joins Ana Marie Cox (@anamariecox) for a discussion of his work in exploring the wide-spread radicalization of mostly middle-aged people who think a shadowy cabal is going to take revenge on everyone they don’t like. And also make other people (including the still living JFK Jr.) like them and support their cause? QAnon, it turns out, is a bit of a mess. Which you might expect from an ideology founded on the belief that Donald Trump is out here playing three-dimensional chess to save the world. Our conspiracy theory theme month plows ahead into dangerously confusing territory, so come play 17 Questions with The Daily Beast’s specialist on all things pizza and pedophiles!

The F*ck Gerry (mandering) Fund

Donate Now

Verified It won't matter who winds up in the White House in 2020 if they don't have the power to actually, you know, govern. This won't happen if Republicans get to draw their own gerrymandered Congressional districts. So we’ve teamed up with @dataforprogress to launch the F*ck Gerry(mandering) fund. We are targeting 12 states over the next two years, starting with Virginia. The state's entire legislature is up for reelection in 2019 and our friends at Data for Progress have identified 10 winnable races in Virginia where your contributions will go the furthest in securing a much-needed seat for Democrats. This will help make sure that the state doesn’t have a bunch of Republican-drawn districts during the next census in 2020. Gerrymandering! It's fucking up our democracy and it's time to take action.
