Alex Kopytko is a ”radical centrist” that wants to understand the extremes. He has worked in politics and has studied public policy and political science. Alex argues that centrism is less about being a contrarian, it is about being able to change your mind and embrace an openness to new ideas. He is concerned about where the United States is headed and through conversations with people from all sides of the political spectrum, he wants to know how Americans can limit the tribalism that is flourishing. As someone that dances along the center-right of the political spectrum, Alex thinks the country needs to come together and talk to one another before it could be too late. This podcast covers domestic politics, as well as political philosophy, and international issues.

In this episode, Alex discusses the tragedy in Highland Park on the 4th of July and why as Tom Nichols says, “the effect of these mass shootings is the same as terrorism: They rob us of a general sense of safety and turn us into a nation of hostages.”Then he discusses some new revelations from the investigation into the Trump team in Georgia, Lindsey Graham, and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani have been called to testify. Then Alex provides a compilation of disturbing threats to Adam Kinzinger, that his team has put together. The threats help explain why Kinzinger could be resigning in November. Finally, Alex discusses how the clock may be running out on Boris Johnson’s time as PM of the United Kingdom. He has been hit by numerous scandals of his own creating and the master of chaos has caused too much of it.

On mass shootings - there is NO reason an 18 year old needs an Assault Rifle. On Adam Kinzinger - it’s despicable how he is being treated for taking the moral high ground. As we discussed I’m praying for heroes like Mr Kinzinger to come forward! On Johnson - you nailed that one Alex! But I appreciated the reminder on how he got to resignation.
