Echoes of Conspiracy from Ruby Ridge to Today

Season 2026 Episode 8097 | 17m 57s

The 1992 Ruby Ridge siege was an 11-day armed standoff between federal agents and the Weaver family that ended in 3 deaths. In his book "End of Days," Chris Jennings argues that the episode — rooted in apocalyptic and anti-government ideology — helped pave the way for today's conspiracy-driven politics. Jennings joins the show to discuss the legacy of the event and what it reveals about the U.S.
