“The Tech Coup:" Expert Warns of Silicon Valley’s Influence on Washington

Season 2025 Episode 7161 | 17m 04s

Has Silicon Valley become too powerful? Marietje Schaake believes it has.

Schaake joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss the tech titans' grip on Washington and what it might mean for American democracy.
