In this thought-provoking debut episode of RCR 360, host Alistair Harding sits down with Jeffrey Tucker, founder of the Brownstone Institute, to discuss the seismic political shifts we are witnessing today—shifts deeply rooted in the response to COVID-19.

Tucker, a key figure behind the Great Barrington Declaration, reflects on how the COVID era awakened millions to the stark realities of media-government collusion, the erosion of democratic freedoms, and the rise of global authoritarianism. From widespread censorship to the unprecedented power wielded by unelected bureaucracies, this conversation unpacks the forces that shaped the last five years—and what comes next.

The discussion also dives into Donald Trump’s return to the White House, examining the deep divide over whether his leadership signals the resuscitation or death of democracy. Is Trump dismantling an entrenched administrative state, or is he simply another figurehead in a much larger global movement? Tucker offers a historical perspective on the battle between populism and globalism, drawing parallels to past political upheavals and questioning whether true change is possible.

With insights on censorship, government overreach, and the role of social media in shaping modern resistance, this interview is a must-listen for those seeking to understand the fight for truth, freedom, and the future of democracy.

Tune in to RCR 360 for a conversation that challenges mainstream narratives and explores the undercurrents shaping our world.
