About this episode

Veteran Air Force linguist Reality Winner was working at the NSA in 2017 when she leaked a classified document to the press about Russian election interference. Soon after, the FBI showed up at her door. She was sentenced to five years in prison and was released in 2021. Winner's new memoir is I Am Not Your Enemy. She spoke with Terry Gross.

Also, John Powers reviews the MUBI series Mussolini: Son of the Century about the ferocious rise of the Italian dictator.
