Gettin’ Wonky on the Unitary Executive Interview: Charlie Cooke

In honor of King Charles’ visit to the United States, Jonah has invited his favorite Brit (by birth) to come on The Remnant for some knockdown, drag-out sparring over the unitary executive theory and the threat posed by illiberal conservatives. Along the way, Jonah and Charlie also discuss vaccines in Florida, gerrymandering, Clarence Thomas’ recent University of Texas speech, progressivism, classical liberalism, Donald Trump’s “mean tweets,” and court packing.
