In this week's 51/49 segment, James discusses the Democratic Party’s shallow vision of this idea of "restoring decency", "a return to normal", and "restoring the soul of the nation".

As we head into the Joe Biden / Kamala Harris administration, all the talk about decency, empathy, and protecting the most vulnerable in our society seems to be nothing more than empty platitudes.

Using a social media post representing the neoliberal coastal elite Democratic base, James dives into the hypocrisy of the Democratic Party's ruling elite and their attempt to gaslight the entire country to believe they stand for something other than more neoliberal corporatism and imperialism.
