Sasha Abramsky
Sasha Abramsky has spent a career bearing witness to what happens when power stops answering to people.
As The Nation's Western correspondent and author of American Carnage, he has tracked DOGE not as a cost-cutting experiment gone wrong, but as something more calculated — the deliberate hollowing out of the institutions that make democracy function.
The Hungarian Playbook
Viktor Orbán didn't seize power overnight. He:
Defunded agencies
Captured courts
Silenced watchdogs
Installed loyalists
Until the architecture of accountability simply collapsed. Sound familiar?
The Good News
The blueprint for resistance is just as clear. What stopped authoritarianism before — and can stop it again:
Robust civic engagement
An informed electorate
The willingness to fight for every institution — from your local food pantry to the federal agencies that keep your air clean and your food safe
Sasha brings both the unflinching diagnosis and the roadmap for what comes next.
This is not a moment for despair. It is a moment for action.
Come hear it firsthand and get a signed copy of the book.
