This essay was originally published in today’s edition of Maria Shriver’s Sunday Paper. Maria Shriver is an exceptional human being. She is also supremely talented. There are few people who have the ability to genuinely inspire and lift people up. Sunday Paper captures that spirit. It will never fail to inform, inspire and stir optimism. Our political debates in America are often dark. Our culture often seems rotten. Much of that is illusory. The reality is that there is good all around us. Sunday Paper is good for the spirit.

The Importance of Independence Day

There is a very significant, “exhausted majority” of Americans looking to move past this rotten moment in American life. They have lost trust and faith in government, business, media and not-for-profit institutions at a moment of technological, cultural and economic upheaval. Fascism did not rise in the 1930s because it was strong, but rather, because democracy was weak. The cycle is repeating itself with a new extremism rising in 2020s America. On the podcast – consistent with the mission of The Warning newsletter offered on Substack and The Warning YouTube channel – I will be joined by interesting guests – some familiar, and some you may never have heard of – to discuss the political and cultural currents that are shaping our times, as well as the unseen forces driving politics that are rarely discussed on cable news. It's important for you to hear from a diverse range of voices – not just me – about the issues facing America today.
