Mother Jones senior editor Daniel Schulman joined Chris Hayes on MSNBC to discuss his new book, “Sons of Wichita: How the Koch Brothers Became America’s Most Powerful and Private Dynasty.” We published a scintillating excerpt from the book here and posted a rare Koch family home video from the 1940s depicting the boys fighting with boxing gloves here.

Need some lunchtime reading? We have a long excerpt up from Daniel Schulman’s new book about the Koch brothers, Sons of Wichita: How the Koch Brothers Became America’s Most Powerful and Private Dynasty, and if you want to learn how and why David and Charles Koch became such ruthless fighters for the conservative cause, this will tell you. Long story short, they got it from their family. Their father passed down an obsessive, conspiratorial conservative streak, and endless fights with their brothers toughened them up for the political arena.

The excerpt is here. Enjoy.
