YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn an emotional week for the nation, Clay welcomes journalist, author and political maven Jonathan Allen () to discuss the political forces that brought us to our current moment and where they might take us.

But are the trends we’re seeing the result of luck, or is a new majority coalescing around the moderate policies of the Biden administration?
