Rachel Maddow interviewed BC history professor Charles Gallagher, S.J., on her MSNBC podcast Ultra. The episode, "The Brooklyn Boys," is summarized as follows: "The most prominent media figure in America calls for the creation of a militia, armed Americans willing to use violence to get their way. What they want is to overthrow the U.S. government and to end democracy in this country – by force. Their plot raised alarming indications that the federal government is not up to the task of dealing with that kind of homegrown threat."
