How Republicans Are Seizing Power In The States | TJPS EXCLUSIVE is a critical investigation into the strategies and maneuvers that Republican leaders are using to consolidate power at the state level. Drawing from the historical context of Ronald Reagan’s dangerous rhetoric about “states’ rights,” this report exposes how modern authoritarian power grabs threaten democracy, civil liberties, and the very foundation of our nation. I also speak with ProPublica Investigative Journalist Doug Clark, who provides in-depth analysis and reporting on the mechanisms Republicans are using to reshape governance and limit accountability, showing why these actions represent an existential threat to American democracy.
