What would Christopher Hitchens say about Trump’s manufactured crisis in Portland? In this satirical reimagining, Hitchens’ devastating wit and uncompromising defense of democratic norms are unleashed on Trump’s cynical deployment of federal troops to create the very chaos he claimed to be suppressing.
From his imagined vantage point, Hitchens dismantles the administration’s lies about Portland burning to the ground while video showed peaceful streets and joggers. He exposes how Trump circumvented judicial orders, imported troops from other states, and orchestrated a propaganda operation complete with professional videographers. Hitchens reveals the feedback loop between Fox News and the White House, where policy is made in response to selectively edited footage designed to manufacture consent for authoritarianism.
Join us as we explore how Hitchens’ fearless critique of power and his defense of constitutional principles might confront one of democracy’s most dangerous moments.
