The Time of Monsters with Jeet Heer Kanye, the Religious Right, and the Upsurge in Antisemitism

Kanye West’s appearance on the Alex Jones show, where the singer praised Hitler and Nazism, has brought the problem of antisemitism to the fore. To take up the issue, I spoke with Sarah Posner, a columnist at MSNBC and author of the valuable book Unholy: Why White Evangelicals Worship at the Altar of Donald Trump.
Sarah is a particularly valuable voice in this conversation because the fraught and complex relationship between the religious right and right-wing Zionists is part of the story. We talk not only about West and Jones but also the right turn of the Supreme Court.
