The Koch Brothers and others helped finance and build a powerful network of think tanks, academic centers, and news media outlets that far exceeded what liberals could have imagined. Is Donald Trump's ascension to the White House a threat to the Kochs’ agenda, or will he succumb to it, regardless of his promises to fight the corrupting power of billionaire donors and “drain the swamp” in Washington? Join us for a discussion with Vice President Mondale and Jane Mayer.
