How do you take power from the people and consolidate it in a dictator or government? There are known tactics to do this, and they have been demonstrated since the time of Plato. Historian Bill Federer joins Frank and identifies these tactics. He then takes us on a fascinating ride through history to show us how these tactics have been used in the past and how they are being used right now. Among the questions they discuss are:

• What is socialism?
• What are the two ways you can take power from people gradually?
• Does it require a grand conspiracy to do it?
• Who in the Bible invented identity politics?
• Where does Critical Theory come from and what does it teach?
• How did the Nazis arrest power from the people?
• How are those tactics being used in the US?
