Tina Nguyen in Conversation with CNN’s John Avlon: The MAGA Diaries

Jan 16, 2024


Join journalist Tina Nguyen, national correspondent for Puck and former White House correspondent for Politico, for a conversation with CNN’s John Avlon about the alarming early days of the alt-right — and her new book, The MAGA Diaries: My Surreal Adventures Inside the Right-Wing (And How I Got Out). A former right-wing student activist and an early employee for Tucker Carlson at The Daily Caller, Nguyen saw the origins of MAGA up close — and it wasn’t pretty. Blowing the whistle on a movement whose only purpose is to triumph over the left — even if it meant sacrificing truth and democracy — Nguyen is uniquely adept at showing us how we arrived at the current state of American politics. Hear her discuss what she saw in this explosive account of the MAGA movement and its increasingly dangerous implications for our country.
