Is America in a Constitutional Crisis? Kara Swisher Explains the Chaos—And What Comes Next!

Podcast legend Kara Swisher (Pivot, On with Kara Swisher) breaks down how the current administration’s reckless moves—from tariffs to deportations—are shaking Wall Street and hurting everyday Americans and gives her full tech industry analysis & political commentary. Is this the breaking point? And can anything stop the spiral?

In this eye-opening breakdown, Kara reveals why every American—regardless of party—should be alarmed by rising economic uncertainty, the manipulation of truth by tech billionaires, and the dangerous decline of a free press. Swisher digs into how misinformation spreads, why idolizing Silicon Valley billionaires like Elon Musk could backfire, and what really happens when moguls step into the White House. Plus: the surprising power of comedy in dark times, how to stay sane while staying informed, and why she still holds hope for America’s future.
