Harvey Kaye, Professor Emeritus of Democracy and Justice Studies at UWGB, and our favorite Delano Democrat joins us for the full hour.
First, is there a glimmer of unity among national Democrats? All Senate Democrats- Fetterman with some nudging- signed on to a one sentence resolution denouncing President Trump's pardons for those who violently assaulted Capitol Police on January 6th, 2021. Not much, but it's a bit of unity.
However, our main focus for the day is- big surprise here- what lessons we can apply from FDR to today's political and economic world. Harvey's been ruminating on FDR's call for 'militant liberalism' lately, so we break it down. Turns out it's not about making us adhere to strict uniform codes or schedules, it's about enabling and empowering the common people. That sounds nice, can we have more of that please?
