Is there anything wrong with Democratic leadership being so devoutly…secular? Jon sits down for a conversation with Texas State Representative James Talarico, who put becoming an ordained minister on hold to run for US Senate.

Plus: why Democrats should take responsibility for the growth of Christian nationalism.
