Republicans Speak Out Against Trump

Please note: This episode was recorded before the assassination attempt against former President Trump last weekend. It contains honest, authentic criticism of President Trump's administration's policies from Republicans and former Republicans, including an expert who served in that administration. This criticism is based on the real outcomes of actual policies, and we think it's fair and important for our audience to hear it. This is how we address the differences in our political views. Violence is never a way to resolve our differences, political or otherwise. We deplore it. Welcome back to another episode of The Hot Dish, where we dive deep into the heart of America's rural and small-town landscapes. On today's episode we have Chris Gibbs, a full-time farmer and former Republican now aligned with the Democratic Party. Chris opens up about his journey from the local Republican party to his current position, driven by his discontent with the Trump administration's tariffs and mishandling of the agricultural sector. We will also be joined by Elizabeth Neumann, a former Homeland Security official during the Bush and Trump administrations and esteemed author of Kingdom of Rage: The Rise of Christian Extremism and the Path Back to Peace. Elizabeth delves into her deep concerns about the rise of domestic extremism in the United States and the ideologies associated with that. In this episode, we explore the rapid shifts toward political violence, the dangerous rhetoric of certain leaders, and the profound—yet, always tragic—consequences of radicalization.Join us on The Hot Dish every other week, where we serve up hearty conversations that resonate with every corner of the country. To learn more, visit https://onecountryproject.com
