Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 40 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Jeff is joined by historian H.W. Brands to discuss the public and political battle between #FDR and Charles Lindbergh during the lead-in to #WW2. Were FDR’s policies pushing America slowly toward war, as Lindbergh asserted, or would they keep us out, as was FDR’s position? Of additional interest is how their disagreement fits into the long-running debate over America’s role in the world – which was, in part, on the ballot in 2024.
