, the 60 plus individuals, many of them are just gone and they were the talent that the democrat party had cultivated and moved along, with that vacuum after barack obama even during the i would argue a lack of a center of gravity when it comes to theory, classical liberal theory, what the democrats used to stand for and what the american people thought they were, back to the days of reagan, people people being able to work together while the cadet theoretically liberalism and conservatism and how to apply that, nobody since then has developed barack obama party and there is no interesting beyond him and as you mentioned in your monologue aoc is considered a powerhouse, a person she endorsed the mayor of new york and a person she endorsed for the progressives in ohio run off, failed badly, i would argue that this current party is looking at social media as indicators of power as opposed to real power and they voted in her district, there's no enthusiasm, the democrats have a chance that the good have to do bully look at. gerry: this is good news for republicans if the policy is getting

he can give it to your party, here state democratic party. am going to ask him for that $80 million? >> i can chair the wiring instructions with them if you like. covid more than happy to take some of that money into the party. i don't think the governor has even thought of those things. he is gonna remain a reproductive and positive force in the party, and in politics. his health with those fines and other assets certainly would be something we appreciate. >> is that kind of morally acceptable to the new york state attorney party. and you must say are worth $80 million and gives it to the people of new york here and there that he favors in particular and possibly and a grudge match against others who he resents based on last year of his career which is worked out as governor. >> you'll find what he does with that, i hear you live with her or not. i would say, $18 million is a lot of money to have and the campaign account. you are not running for reelection. i don't expect him to be running for office again. i think it would be helpful for hi

>> sean: our villain of the day of the day is from the rhode island democratic party writing about lindsey graham's break through case of covid, saying it's wrong to hop the 19 i remember when i had my health challenging times on the phone with you and we were joking how many people want you dead? i can't count. >> i think that is true and i remember that. i have a sense of humor. laura: they were nasty but they are the humanitarians and we're the hardhearted ones, remember that. it you translation book and we can interpret all their comments. i'm going to pick up where you left off. i'm laura ingraham. as the angle predicted you may remember biden would never be strong enough to stand up to the squad and today we proven right again. i have a hint, bad news if you are a landlord. a well-known canadian urologist was part of the group that did the early research on the mrna covid vaccine now says part of it was a mistake. he will tell us what is later. new york death wishes the focus of tonight's angle. anyone of a certain age remembers an ad campaign used to promote tourism in a beleaguered

. >> they were up against the all white democratic party. >> the official symbol of the democratic party this rooster. it said white supremacy for the right. white supremacy was the political motto. >> the people in the county said, what we need is a black cat to run that old rooster out of this county and so, they began to think black panther was their symbol. >> the first image appeared in your comic. >> the county symbol that jennifer drew did not just remain in our county. >> the symbol went national, adopted by others throughout the movement as black power became a rallying cry. >> don't be afraid. don't be ashamed we want black power. we want black power. >> that's right! >> black power! >> some said that this county had black power in action with people being able to vote for themselves and have the authority in the county. the courage of the people was very remarkable saying and we want our freedom and we want the vote and we are willing to take the risk. >> that's what active its like lewis hoped to evoke, citizens willing to take risks to create change. >> we are searching for

but that's a very fragile position for the democratic party to be end. so reorganizing themselves, so they appeal to the economic concerns, they appeal to people's ability to make a living, as opposed to lecturing them about what words they can use in whether they should constantly be assessing other peoples race, as the most important thing about them. when it really isn't. >> andrew sullivan has been our guest tonight. the book is here in my hand, it is called, out on a limb. selective writing, 1989, to 2021. it is out tomorrow. buyers of its, should be ready for the ride. andrew, always a pleasure, thank you so much. coming up, what's been described as code red for all our humanity. r humanity ♪ ♪ ♪ aloha! isn't this a cozy little room? sorry your vacation request took so long to get approved, so you missed out on the suite special. but lucky for you, they had this. when employees are forced to wait for vacation request approvals,it can really cramp their style. i'm gonna leave you to it. um, just— with paycom, employees enter and manage their

the democratic party is happy with big businesses, but the small businesses, they are going to war against them. >> laura: the thought leader of the party, thank you both. moments ago, chuck schumer taking to a fence of a victory lap of defense. >> we have come to a agreement of the final passage of the partisan infrastructure about the proposal. as we move forward we are proceeding on both tracks. the track of the bipartisan infrastructure proposal, and the track of the budget resolution with reconciliation reconstruction. >> laura: just went nancy and aoc wanted. when he said that double checked thing, it's impossible, because just last week so-called republican senator bill cassidy of louisiana told me something very different. >> we think that it is likely to pass, and somehow you are trying to -- if i may, remake that bill less likely to pass. but if we think this bill and you marry them together, it's more likely to pass. that's what simple logic tells you. >> laura: so who was right and who was wrong? joining me now with final warning louisiana senator john kennedy, serving on the s

party got together and push this guy out, on the other hand, the democratic party enabled him for many years. there is an argument that many top officials knew would cuomo was like, and let him get away with it for a long time, kept endorsing him every time an election came by. >> i think there is an inherent tendency to protect people in power. the longer they've been in power, the more entrenched they are, the more people they have that raw are gonna come to their defense, and that is why it makes it so difficult to go after people like this and to make sure that people are held accountable. i think that it is big that we've seen the tide turn and it's significant that we've had this happen today, there is a true marker of the most powerful people in any of the states is finally having to step down. it's not enough by itself, but it's an important step in the right direction and i hope that we actually see real action on meaningful protections for women in the workplace and in their day-to-day lives. >> an important step in the right direction, we will have to leave it there, katie h

. >> what impact does his resignation have on the democratic party? >> i think the impact is all on andrew cuomo and his decision to make that judgment and i respect his decision. >> with that, let's bring in our leadoff guests on this tuesday night. phil rucker, senior washington correspondent for "the washington post." his new book "i alone can fix it" is now a "new york times" best seller. susan del percio, msnbc political analyst. she served as a special adviser to andrew cuomo. and founding director of columbia's national center for disaster preparedness who advises us on public health and professor of pediatrics. good evening and welcome to you all. mr. rucker, i would like to begin with you, what are you hearing from the white house deprived as they were of feeling like today was a big victory, given all else that's going on? >> well, brian, it was a big victory and you saw president biden pausing there during the day to celebrate it. and note that bipartisanship is alive and well on that one bill. but there is also simultaneously the 3 1/2 tri

laura: charlie, the squad has been camped out that what about the rest of the democratic party? is there more of a rift because they are called to extend this and keep people from being evicted? charlie: that has to be my favorite thing about the whole story that democrats are in charge of everything. and when career bush sits on the front steps in protest, she is protesting democrats. democrats control the white house and both chambers of congress. they can do whatever they want to do. if they want to blow free money out of the cannon all over america, they can do that. but they can't. they will not do it. so they will take recess instead of doing it. and tyrus is right. free money is bad. we are taught there is no such thing as a free lunch. there is no free money. it comes from somewhere in washington at its worst with politicians who want to play robin hood. they think they steal from the rich to give to the poor. but in this case they steal from the not so rich giving to the not so poor. then that result is the absolute annihilation of the american dream. you see these peop

but it was the local endorsements i think in the democratic party that go a long way. i think that is what the democrats need to do in 2022. >> even though this was seen as a win for the more establishment moderate democrats, progressives also have had a win this week. this effort led by cori bush on the eviction moratorium, now the white house reversed course under pressure, although it's legally dubious whether it's going to succeed. [ laughter ] but that shows that they still carry a lot of weight. >> there's two big takeaways from that episode. first of all, the squad. so cori bush, aoc, others have shown how they can marshall that power within capitol hill to get policies done immediately as they have this narrow majority in the house and the white house and the senate as well. but at the same time, there will be practical effects from a moderate such as ms. brown winning last night in ohio because we can have the takeaways in these off-year elections for what they portend next year. nancy pelosi has a very narrow majority in the house, and if you're nancy pelosi,

as you are aware, there has been a lot of debate and disappointment among democratic party leadership themselves. specifically, the chairman of the committee has committed to holding a series of oversight hearings on the decision and the implementation of the withdraw stretching into the biden and trump administrations. in light of the controversy, do you think that somebody will have to resign? there is been a lot of talk about current national security advisor jake sullivan. if not him, what are some other potential ramifications that will happen within the democratic party? amb. neumann: i am not going to touch democratic party politics with a 10 foot pole, but i think there are two or three things one could say. it's important to distinguish between the decision to withdraw and the execution of that decision. people can argue both sides, whether we should have gotten out, whether it was time to get out. the way we got out was a disaster. the biggest piece of that failure was that we said we will continue to support the afghan forces and we had no plan in place to do that. in fact,

president biden, sure doesn't seem like progressives have control of the democratic party. >> well, as an ohioan, i think ohio voters are very far from socialism. if you look at the district in which brown and turner were running, that was former secretary fudge's district. before that congressman stephanie tubbs jones. very democratic, black women, northeast working-class folks.

he is doing a terrible job, even leaders of the democratic party, his party would be very happy that he could be leaving, but they are not. they are doing everything they can to keep him in office. they a are going so far as to endorse the job he is doing if you can imagine. imagine the bile they have to swallow to do that, because they are not blind and they see what he has done. joe biden and kamala harris are set to campaign against the recall, no more democracy for you. you have to wonder will the state survive this? will there be a free and fair election? everyone is watching. the cochair of the republican national lawyers association and lives in california. she has for many years. happy to have her on tonight. thanks so much for coming on, california does not get the credit it deserves, it is a 1-party state and they act like it and you have to have concerns of whether this recall election will be free and fair. are you concerned? >> of course i am concerned, tucker, i'm involved in election recovery. i am a member of the republican national committee, we have a team of lawyer

on the establishment side is a local county council member who chairs the county's democratic party. she has aligned herself as a loyalist to president joe biden. joining me now, our nbc news senior political editor. so the race for the 11th district in the cleveland area, it has drawn a lot of national attention from democrats and it's taking a bit of a nasty turn. certainly when you're talking about interparty fighting. take us how -- take us through this. how contentious is this race getting? >> yeah. . watching the tv advertisements airing in this cleveland-akron district are the nastiest democrat on democrat ads i've seen probably since going back

adrian, you are -- you work with democrats. you're with the democratic party. does he have a point? >> well, i think the point that he was making, jonathan, is that elections are not fought and won on twitter. that is just not where the majority of voters spend their time. people like you and me spend a lot of time on twitter, but that's not where the majority of

>> there is still a progressive win in the democratic -- democratic party, it still has quite a bit of power particularly in the house of representatives where speaker pelosi's margin is slim. and then progressives, if they were aligned to could throw a serious monkey wrench into her plans. that said, the progressives in terms of actually voting in the house, they have been pragmatic and pretty realistic about what can get through the house and potentially get through the senate and what can't. you've got to say that the election yesterday was certainly a telling blow. a big blow to the progressive nina turner to get her elected. she is a fiery, well known, and perhaps too abrasive to have one that seat. she brought out the fight in jim clyde burn and a lot other members of the congressional white caucus. you saw the result. >> if it was a telling blow a.b., and i think a lot of people would agree with eugene on that. does it tell us how much immigrants like joe biden? how tired they are of extremism's? and so for a while, they just want to take a breath and go moderate? what does it t

party is calling for defunding the police when she is the star of the democratic party. >> the revelation she has private security it proves the point that cops are so necessary. to defund the police movement is the most ill advised idea ever. it's absolutely rebounded negatively against those proprosed and it's absurd on its face. that's why she has private security. her constituents need what she has. this is so important: there is a ghetto civil war. there are so many guns on the street. these gang bangers and the dope business are the most toxic environment you can have. st. louis and baltimore and detroit, kansas city and memphis. buffalo. nuark, chicago. they are in denial. var to recognize that the constituency are imperilled by a statistic that young black men are dying from homicide more than any other cause. what is she talking about. >> who will sleep on the steps of the capitol for the victims of all of these crimes? >> everything that geraldo said is important. when she talks on behalf of these people, this is for them. it's theatre. it's a vessel for her to gain power. this

to the democratic party. and the, and the democratic party mil. yeah, the democrats weaponized the me to movement, they used to devastating effect against red cavanaugh. it was a very powerful weapon that was brought to bear. and now it's been brought to bear on one of their own is acutely embarrassing to have cuomo, who was a cheerleader for the me to movement down to fall the him to the movement. and i think these, these, these accusations are backfiring, people are going to be very careful if for bring in charges like this again. and this whole episode leaves a very bad taste and everybody's mouth. yeah, the scandals running chromos harassment case became even bigger after a group fighting sex abuse got involved and none of this surgery might expect the leader of the times up charity is now resigned after coming under fire for her ties to the new york governor. controversy is her a organization actually supports victims of sexual harassment. you deserve more than just that. you are showing others that no o

this is really the divide of the democratic party. many say why change the horse in the middle of the race, many people agree fed chair jerome powell has done a good job guide in the country economically, the monetary policy through the pandemic, but at the same time, this is a chance for the biden administration to reshape what the chair, what the entire really bored of the fed looks like and potentially a nod to progressive left. you could see more pix that represent america, little more diversity. lisa: and talking about issues between the democratic party, i want to veer over to new york state for a moment. andrew cuomo, the governor, has come under a lot of calls to resign following sexual harassment claims and he has been very quiet. what is the latest? how much are people talking about in the lease -- about that in d.c.? annmarie: people are talking about it in a sense that every democratic leader in washington, d.c., including the president of the united states from the east wing, asking the governor of new york to resign and

and i think it's because he's become a distraction to the democratic party. so there's right and wrong and then there's the politics, as always. and both signs point to it's time for the governor to go. >> here the reason that i bring all this up. i think that is absolutely valid, mara. but charlie, the reason i have to bring up these other cases is that the model that has been created in american politics right now, four powerful men in politics in particular, hollywood and other -- after a while you can shift people out. and you did see me too begin to move people out. but the thug it out strategy, donald trump has 26 known accusers and his -- the attitude of his party was, so? madison cawthorn, there are women who work on the hill right now and have to pass him in the hall every day who dealt with him in college and know what he was like and don't feel comfortable. and the party's like, so? matt gaetz is accused of trafficking a teenage girl. and the attitude is, so? and so my thing is how do you even foresee cuomo being incent sized to do what eric greite

most progressive members of the democratic party have. how do you read what happened? jonathan: the more progressive wing doesn't hold sway when it comes to these special elections. i am reminded of tip o'neill sang all politics is local. we have a tendency to nationalize every congressional race, every local race, and forget about the fact that the people who are running are not running national races. they are running local races. when you look at the race, you have to remember that president biden won that district with 79.8% of the vote, and so you have one candidate who is the local chair of the democratic party, and another candidate who has said some unspeakable things about what it would mean to her if she voted for joe biden, so you put that out there and thinking she would actually win that race, i think that was laughable. david: i am about to nationalize it. you go back to 2019. aoc is riding high, the green new deal with the pty appears it is shifting rapidly to the left. i recl one of the presidential debates, people re aski

far left of the democrat party run the show, which is why we're standing here today contemplating a $4.2 trillion spending spree to permanently expand the size of government. mr. president, we don't yet know all the details of the democrats' budget-busting spending legislation, but what we do know is not encouraged. in addition to taxes that will burden hardworking americans and hurt our economy, democrats are con policemen indicating a new welfare benefit with no work requirement. lots and lots of free stuff like two free years of community college. elements of democrats' most extreme socialist fantasy, the green new deal, amnesty for individuals here in our country illegally, funding for tens of thousands. yes, tens of thousands of new i.r.s. agents. a tax cut for blue state millionaires and billionaires. and more. and by the way, on that point, mr. president, it's really ironic for me to hear democrats come down here and talk about republicans wanting to cut taxes for rich people when this proposal in this legislation, 50%, 50% of the tax cut by doing away with the cap on deducti

i'm talking about within the democratic party. that's a tough place to be, and makes it all but inevitable, either he'll resign or get forced out through impeachment. all the cuomos, they have a propensity to dig their heels in. even though the writing is clearly on the wall for him right now, it is still the case that he doesn't apparently see it. so could he decide, even though the rational thing would be to finally kind of acquiesce here, could he drag this out and try to fight the fight and drag others down with him, that's, i think, not impossible. but i think it's, you know, the end is in sight now. the question is how governor cuomo decides to go down, and i don't think there are going to be many people around him. one of the few people that will be around him, i think, is his brother chris cuomo, and you know, we knew about this chris cuomo thing. he got in trouble at cnn when some of this came to light early in the story. this isn't exactly new. i think a lot of people will raise questions. i don't think there's anything

and the democratic party, it is no laughing matter for the democratic party. we are looking at a republican takeover of the house and potentially the senate as wellin an election like 1944 in 2010 which were disastrous for my party pre- >> people remember that. they were never the contract with america and to lawrence's points, you see inflation, you cannot buy a used car right now. the price of beef and gas are skyrocketing. those of the things that hit people close to home. >> of the southern border a million among 17, 20% covid positive that is the kind of issue that could take the democrats to the south, southwest and westbury. >> that's what happens when you elect president no courage of all of these people progressive they want to write on the note card when the president does not have a grasp on the issues facing the country. this was a very selfish of the democratic party. they could've had someone inspiring, someone who knew the issues. this could be the new future of the democratic party instead they put the old guy up there and decided to write on t

and it's the republican party that's driving the latino community into the democratic party's arms. we're happy to take them. but you've got people coming from countries where they had bad experiences with socialism, people coming here with a strong ethic, big faith background. you have to work hard as republican party to repel this many voters who some of them naturally should be voting for you. so it's not that the democrats are bringing people here to vote, it's people are coming here to work and republicans have been so nasty, and hostile, they're driving away voters that they could have. this demographic change could help either party or neither party, but it's helping democrats because of republicans. >> go ahead. >> if i could just add, to your point, i think we should all go into these next several years with eyes wide open. tucker carlson is making an argument that a lot of people are eating up and will eat up. president trump's rise and his popularity within the republican party and in this country is still based on white resentment of the kind of demographic change that t

so a rising star in the democratic party, now stepping down. all right, thanks so much christmas. salumi ly 1st there in new york, on the news that new governor andrew cuomo had just announced his resignation as governor of the state of new york. nor plenty more reaction on that breaking news story to come in the us. no doubt, but we'll move on for now. the united nations has held a briefing on to me and more nationals who have been arrested on charges of plotting to kill me and mas you and ambassador cho mo ton, who was appointed by the deposed civilian government. has openly criticized the military hunter since it sees power in february, man was military responded by saying it had nothing to do with it, but they are demanding his removal. in my view, commander in chief appear determined to fully defy. he's great on power. with the latest caretaker of our mind announcement also with the formal i knew me and of the election. we solid from last year with the declaration of the commander in chief to be the prime minister of the country. and i fea

>> sean: our villain of the day of the day is from the rhode island democratic party writing about lindsey graham's break through case of covid, saying it's wrong to hope he will die. let not your heart be troubled. laura ingraham, they are so nice on the left. just kind and sweet and loving? >> laura: when i had my health challenge. i was on the phone with you and you were on the radio show. we were joking how many people want you dead? i can't even count. >> sean: i remember that. if i didn't have a sense of humor i would crawl under a rock. >> laura: they're the humanitarians and we are the hard-hearted ones. get your translation book to interpret their comments. unbelievable. i will pick up where you left off. i am laura ingraham and this is "the ingraham angle" from washington tonight. as the "angle" predicted last year, you may remember, biden would never be strong enough to it stand up on the squad. boy, today we were proven right again. i have a hint for you. it's bad news if you are a landlord. a well known imuneologist did some of the early research on the covid vaccines and says

he is on a political island tonight, he has virtually no support from within his own party, the democratic party, president biden obviously is calling for him to resign. so to lose every member of the new york congressional congregation, many of the leaders of the new york state legislature and as you just noted, impeachment proceedings are due to begin in due course and quickly in albany. so he may be forced out of office but he is not taking the hint and resigning gracefully as most democratic leaders would like to see him do. in a way he's acting very trumpian, this is the same way that donald trump handled so many controversies in his presidency. he denied any wrongdoing again and again and again and hoped people would forget instate and office and continue to pluck away and charge ahead. that's what cuomo is trying to do in new york, and it may not work however, because again, we should underscore that he is an isolated political figure tonight. has no support in his party. >> yamiche you asked the president about prosecution for cuomo, talk about the relationship over the years. wasn

the democrats with the party, they ganged up and voted for the same democrat. it was almost, and they grabbed the speakership away from the majority and ended up not happening and they're getting the speakership and he is a more moderate republican than the person that republicans have been trying to get. congress is really important because this breaks the pattern of airing dirty laundry on the floor and this is right as the civil war is starting. the republicans come into town. they decide not to have a caucus, but what the leaders agreed to do is that there will be a ballot, whichever republican gets the most votes, and the second, the republicans will vote for him. it's not a majority. that strength player and the son of one of the printers who we saw a few decades ago, and enough people who voted for blair changed their votes so he gets the majority and no multi-ballot affair and that knocks the legs out from under multi-ballot affairs. so from that time forward the question becomes after the civil war whether the caucuses will hold on the floor. the first

party, likely the second in control of the democratic party in terms of a standpoint, the speaker of the house nancy pelosi asking for him to resign. you had the two senators from the state, schumer and gillibrand reiterate or underscore their call, and i think the one person in karl hasty was mentioned earlier, the speaker close to him signals there might be a shift in his position, we will have to wait and see. the one politician in new york we are still waiting to hear from is eric adams who is likely to be the next mayor of the city. the question that i think that the politicians are going to have to answer is the public opinion question. governor cuomo answered a lot of it today. he is immovable. things like is he immovable. will those legislators in the state house and state senate in new york, will they be able to withstand public opinion if it shifts against him? because it appears that the governor has made a decision, at least from his statement today, that what we know today and it's likely that civil and criminal charges will come. if they do, we will be having a differen

because you have to say in a sense that's a big part of the future of the democratic party. so you can't go that far. they have to be very careful in how they do this. >> meantime, a.b., we should also mention ohio's other big primary last night and the trump-backed republican one. there had been a lot of talk about him losing his grip on the party, or at least that it was slipping in terms of endorsements, that some republicans were saying, i wish he would stay away, stay out of these house races. is his grip really slipping? >> no. we had a bad week in texas last week when his candidate lost but he certainly was happy with the results last night. and every time the republicans say -- and they do it quietly all the time -- he's going to go away, his power will wane, his hold on the party is temporary, and that's something donald trump retains this grip that makes candidates and electives in the republican party are afraid to back off with him. he may be more of a liability than a strength, but they cannot get out from under him. >> a.b. stoddard, eugene robinson, thank you

democratic party is still that way today. that is why you see the dramatic shift where it is the left-wing party used to have an advantage with people without college educations whereas now, people without educations in the working class are bizarrely voting for the right wing party. i think that is a deep tragedy. the whole point of liberalism is to be championing the lease advantage. but if you are dominated by people with college degrees and getting the votes of people without them, you've sold out the people you're supposed be representing. as long as the left-wing party still looks the way it did post 1972 and is dominated by identity politics rather than the good all left-wing unions and the working class whether joe biden is president or not, it is still a boomer party and boomer politics we are living in. host: the 117 congress will have 31 millennials in it even though in 2019, millennial's the majority population. what -- where they're not warm up one else in congress? -- why are there not more millennials in congre

so this andrew cuomo thing that sent shock waves through the democratic party nationally. didn't that. well, i mean. >> this is someone who was writing i year ago with the way he was dealing with covid-19 is probably the leadership providing a beacon of sanity. but this also goes to show how fragile, you know, political lives are and when you point, you can be a great leader in terms of the one thing. but if you transgress another that shows what kind of i go see your character as an individual, then. well, you know me to come comes knocking and. rightly so in this instance with 4, with soon to be former governor cuomo. but other than the fact that, you know, all eyes are on these 2. >> and all eyes are these 2 governors and the most populous states right. what what is one impact the other where they have to do with each other because cuomo situation is totally different some situation. >> really is none other than they were both governors who at high profiles in the past year for the way they dealt with that and with deadly pandemic and brought their states back. that's a

if you're the democratic party of new york, when do you need him out? you need him out when the calendar says '21, not '22. >> democrats don't need this to be an ongoing story. it's not just a new york story. it's a national story. so i think that's why you see mario cuomo -- >> andrew. i've been doing it, too. >> he has not one democratic defender. that's the difference between clinton and others. there are no democrats defending him. >> he's a particularly callous kind of abuser. it's one thing to be it. it's quite another -- both are terrible. but it's quite another to be on the forefront to have the most aggressive legislation, the most aggressive language flanked by hollywood actresses, you're the standard-bearer for what is right in america, and then to have this come out. >> jake, some interesting insiders who have been very much prominent on the me too movement have gotten caught up in this. this has dealt a credibility blow for some of these folks. >> absolutely. i think what's most stunning is just the chuck schumer, all of his longtime politi

when you look at the democratic party, who else can fill that role right now? he really is the eshelman. and he is an old man, and he is doing great, but that's a very fragile position for the democratic party to be in. so we organizing themselves so they appeal to the economic concerns, appeal to people's ability to make a living, as opposed to lecturing them about what words they can use and whether they should constantly be assessing other people's race as the most important thing about them, when it really isn't. >> andrew sullivan has been our guest tonight. the book is here in my hand. it is called "out on a limb: selective writing 1989-2021." it is out tomorrow. buyers of it should be ready for the ride. andrew, always a pleasure. thank you so much. >>> coming up, what's been described as code red for all our humanity. em isn't working at it's best taking metamucil everyday can help. metamucil psyllium fiber, gels to trap and remove the waste that weighs you down. it also helps lower cholesterol and slows sugar absorption to promote healthy blood sugar l
