From his humble beginnings as Mayor of Burlington, Vermont to his seat in the Senate, Demoractic Socialist Bernie Sanders has consistently backed the working class, universal health care and taxing the wealthiest Americans. The Vermont Senator joins us this week to talk about the future of Trumpism, priorities for the new administration, and what this upcoming shift in power could mean for transformative, inclusive change.

 

Our team is taking a break for the next few weeks, but not to worry – we’ll have new episodes ready for you come January. In the meantime, stay safe and happy holidays!
