Episode 46: Political Violence in America - From January 6th to Today
Send us a text Political violence in America is no longer rare—it’s part of our daily reality. In this first episode of a three-part series, Bella Goode unpacks how threats have escalated into murders, bombings, and mob attacks since January 6. What was once shocking is now normalized, fueled by rhetoric, selective outrage, and hypocrisy. The cost is staggering: families destroyed, institutions weakened, and democracy itself pushed to the brink. Key Takeaways To Listen For Political violence: What it is, how it’s defined, and why definitions matterWhy far-right extremists account for the majority of deadly incidents since 2016How language—traitor, invasion, war—lays the groundwork for real-world attacksThe rising tolerance of violence: January 6 as spark, not endpointCase studies: El Paso, Buffalo, Paul Pelosi, Melissa Hortman, Josh Shapiro, and Charlie KirkThe fallout: personal trauma, institutional strain, and democratic erosion Resources Mentioned In This Episode NPRThe Washington PostThe New York Times Join the Community Subscribe to Surviving Trump on Substack to keep me churning. bellagoodepodcast.substack.com Know someone who thinks Project 2025 won’t affect them?

A Republican turned democracy advocate in 2016, I was raised by middle class parents in Pennsylvania. I’m a former marketing executive, entrepreneur, and lifelong learner with an MBA from Wharton and a Master’s in Psychology from Penn. I spent decades telling stories in the business world; now I use those skills to connect the dots in American politics. I’m here because the truth matters — and because the stakes have never been higher. Surviving Trump isn’t lighthearted. It’s clarity, evidence, and a fight for the future of our democracy.
