The Coming Storm

‘A grand and somewhat terrifying narrative of misfits, misinformation and manipulation’ - The Guardian

‘A magnificent storyteller’ - The Telegraph

‘Gabriel goes down our dark American rabbit hole armed with nothing but his very British charm. He comes out with a story that is revelatory, scary, and brilliantly told.’ - Jon Stewart

Is this how democracy dies?

The Coming Storm is Gabriel Gatehouse’s brilliant exploration of how conspiracy theories are tearing America apart. Winding his way from the earliest years of the Clinton administration into the murky depths of the 6 January storming of the US Capitol and beyond, Gatehouse gets under the skin of these conspiracy theories to reveal a radical new kind of politics, emerging from a loose alliance of tech bros, internet trolls and white supremacists. These forces have only gone darker and deeper, with Trump’s 2024 electoral success casting doubt on any possibility of light at the end of the tunnel.

As Trump reclaims his spotlight on the international stage, The Coming Storm tells us some troubling truths about our present and underscores the threats we face in our future.
