YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In today’s episode, Mark Halperin’s reported monologue examines the political fallout from Tuesday’s New York City’s primaries and what the rise of Democratic Socialists could mean for the future of the Democratic Party in 2026 and beyond. Wise Democratic strategist Doug Sosnik joins to explain how decades of economic change have reshaped American politics, while Drew Holden discusses the lasting failures of the COVID response and why he believes the media fell short in investigating China’s role in the pandemic. Plus, Gotham City legend Mitchell Modell shares how the Knicks’ championship inspired his return to the sports apparel business.
