On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to John Perkins, author of ‘Confessions of an Economic Hitman’. He discusses why he believes Donald Trump is trying to become a dictator, Trump’s attempts to pressure Netanyahu as the Gaza genocide rages on, Trump’s axing of USAID as China rises while the US becomes isolationist, the degenerative death economy polluting and consuming itself into extinction, the rise of a new class of oligarchs under predatory capitalism, Latin America’s economic shift towards China and China’s solutions to some of the problems the US has created, the threat of nuclear war, AI, the destruction of the climate, and much more.
