'Propaganda Extravaganza' Coming to Chic...

The Daily Signal
About this episode

The Democratic National Convention opens in Chicago on Monday, giving Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz an opportunity to present their vision for America.

But don’t be fooled by the Democrats’ glitzy gala, says John Tillman, CEO of the American Culture Project and chairman of the Illinois Policy Institute.

“We’re going to see one of the greatest propaganda extravaganzas in the history of politics. It will make Hollywood look like amateurs in comparison,” Tillman tells The Daily Signal.
