Senior Fellow David Beito, author of The New Deal's War on the Bill of Rights, is interviewed on Northern Alliance Radio with Brad Carlson. Beito discusses the many ways FDR infringed on the rights of citizens, opponents, and the media. Beito says FDR was very much ‘hands on” with the idea of Japanese internment. FDR’s attorney general didn’t want internment, nor did the citizens, but FDR went forward with internment of Japanese-Americans in what he himself called “concentration camps.”
