It is about the Left\u2019s capture of America\u2019s institutions and the quiet destruction of self-government.  New York Post reporter and editorial board member Seth Barron joins The P.A.S. Report Podcast to discuss his new book, Weaponized: The Left\u2019s Capture and Destruction of America\u2019s Sacred Institutions. Barron exposes how citizenship, policing, housing, and education have been transformed from institutions that serve the people into tools used to centralize power, weaken local control, and impose a radical political agenda on ordinary Americans.  What You\u2019ll Learn  How the Left blurred the line between citizen and non-citizen to weaken the meaning of American citizenship&amp;nbsp; Why \u201cDefund the Police\u201d was never just bad policy, but part of a larger strategy to transform public safety&amp;nbsp; How housing policy, density, YIMBY, and \u201cwalkable cities\u201d are being used to attack suburbs and local control&amp;nbsp; Why teachers\u2019 unions became one of the most powerful forces in leftist politics and school indoctrination&amp;nbsp; Whether America\u2019s captured institutions can be reclaimed before the damage becomes permanent&amp;nbsp;   From open borders and public safety to education and housing, this episode breaks down how America\u2019s sacred institutions became weaponized and what citizens must understand before it is too late.  \ud83d\udcf2 Subscribe, listen, and share The P.A.S.
