Special Episode: On Catastrophic Elite Failure and the Domestic Consequences of Afghanistan

In this episode of High Noon with Inez Stepman, IWF fellow and The Federalist Culture Editor Emily Jashinsky rejoins the podcast to do a requiem on the domestic impact of the Afghanistan debacle.

Inez and Emily lay out the dire (but well-deserved) situation with regard to institutional trust and how this international failure will impact the way that Americans think of their government and especially their leadership class.

If Americans on both the left and the right clearly see that their elite does not deserve power or trust, what are the possibilities of a populist alliance? Are the two halves of the populist rebellion too culturally different to ever form a single political coalition?
