YouTube Description
as posted by the channel“May you live in interesting times” could be considered a curse or a cliché. But now that we’re living through the second Trump Era, millions of us are wondering how to stand up to authoritarianism and make a real difference.
For that, we turn to Thom Hartmann, a legendary progressive radio host and author, who draws on the lessons of history both in the U.S. and abroad.
Thom tells Executive Editor Susan J. Demas that the Lincoln Project’s “Alligator Alcatraz” ad was the perfect example of how Dems should fight back against Trump, by “kicking ass and taking names.”
And Thom discusses why Dems shouldn't be afraid to fight fire with fire on gerrymandering and how Democrats need to prioritize getting rid of Citizens United and other SCOTUS decisions allowing billionaires to control our politics.
