In Washington, D.C., money talks — which is why corporate cash has controlled American politics for almost half a century. In their explosive new book The Wolves of K Street: The Secret History of How Big Money Took Over Big Government, siblings Brody and Luke Mullins look at the explosive growth of lobbying over the last forty years and how it has transformed the country. 

In this episode of Lever Time Premium, for paid supporters of The Lever, Brody Mullins sits down with senior podcast producer Arjun Singh to discuss his reporting about how lobbyists managed to kill antitrust efforts against Google and push the Democratic Party away from its working class and pro-labor roots, among other horrible things.
