Episode Details

In today’s politics news update, Bill looks at three political messages espoused by pro-democracy politicians in the United States, including segments of recent speeches by Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez during the inauguration of New York City’s new Mayor Zohran Mamdani and an article in The Atlantic about Gavin Newsom. Which political messaging strategy do you resonate with the most, or are these policies “too radical” as some pundits insist? Is one message strong enough to be the catalyst that heals American democracy? Or will it take a spectrum? Let’s talk about it.
