1:18:16Now PlayingJames and Al lay out the state of the country as we get further away from the 2024 election, weigh the impact of the potential government shutdown, and investigate the implications of the ongoing Epstein scandal. Then, they welcome esteemed journalist Ron Brownstein to game out how the Democrats can revitalize the party, explain the need for centrism, and how to stop the progress of authoritarianism under Trump. They also discuss how Democrats can move beyond the hot topics on social media to win voters by focusing on the issues that impact voters in their everyday lives.
