What would Christopher Hitchens say about America’s transformation into a billionaire-ruled oligarchy? In this searing AI reconstruction, Hitchens’ moral clarity and unflinching analysis are brought to bear on the grotesque spectacle of the 2025 inauguration and the systemic corruption it represents.
From his imagined vantage point, Hitchens exposes how two hundred and fifty million dollars in inaugural donations represents nothing less than the purchase of government itself. He contrasts the hospital orderly waiting in food bank lines with the billionaires who own her workplace, the diabetic rationing insulin with pharmaceutical executives receiving tens of millions in bonuses, revealing how deliberate cruelty has become the operating principle of American capitalism.
Hitchens dismantles the tired apologetics of those who claim we need “successful businessmen” in government, showing how five billionaires in cabinet positions represents not expertise but oligarchy in its most naked form.
Join us as we explore how Hitchens’ fearless critique of power and privilege might confront the betrayal of every principle upon which America was ostensibly founded.
