Thom Hartmann is a national radio show host, New York Times bestselling-author, and leading progressive voice.
His new book is The Hidden History of Monopolies: How Big Business Destroyed the American Dream.
Hartmann counsels that the American people -- and liberals and progressives in particular -- should be both optimistic and cautious about Joe Biden's presidency.
He also explains that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have the potential to enact a progressive policy agenda if they are sufficiently pressured and held accountable by the American people.
And Hartmann also issues an ominous warning: Joe Biden's presidency may be the last opportunity to save American democracy from the Republican Party and a global right-wing authoritarian movement.
Chauncey DeVega reflects on Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election over the evildoer Donald Trump and what that means – and does not – for the present and future of the United States and its multiracial democracy. Chauncey also shares some examples of how the professional smart people are already demanding that Trump’s followers being forgiven for their support of fascism and white supremacy.
And Chauncey Devega shares a happy animal story about President-elect Biden’s two doggie family members.
