January 23, 2017

First with Murtaza Hussain )@MazMHussain).Trump as the final nail in the post-WWII / Cold War worldview. Critiquing Russia’s and America’s imperial power from the left, and how to regard institutions like NATO and the EU that are problematic but also under existential threat. Leftist internationalism in an age of anti-intervention.

Then, Bernie alum Melissa Byrne (@MCByrne)on the current necessity of the Democratic party infrastructure. Healing the schisms in the democratic party. Playing offense vs. playing defense. Support Melissa at melissafordnc.com

And on the fun half: Sean Spicer starts his time as Press Sec with a barrage of obvious lies, more on punching nazis, KellyAnne spouts “alternative facts.” (1:04:35)
