Brian Tyler Cohen has emerged as one of the most influential, progressive voices in America.
His recent interviews with Governor Gavin Newsom and Minnesota Senator Tina Smith have gone viral and reveal a Democratic establishment that might finally be sick and tired of being bullied by Trump’s increasingly violent, authoritarian appetites and is willing to fight back.
Over the weekend, a Republican voter and Trump supporter, Vance Boelter, engaged in political assassinations of Minnesota Democrats and had a hit list of nearly 70 targets. In response, Trump promised to escalate and expand his war against immigrants to other blue states. Republican officials like Senator Mike Lee have spent the past few days mocking Governor Tim Waltz, and Don Jr. tried to gaslight the world by falsely saying that transgender activists represent the biggest domestic threat to America and not right-wing, white supremacist terror groups.
This weekend has proven, yet again, that the conservative movement is officially lost in a hermetically sealed bubble of conspiracy theories, lies, and grievances. However, the majority, the rest of us, still believe that vaccines save lives, the Earth is round, and Trump lost the 2020 election. We have the numbers and we must act like it.
In this 45-minute conversation, I talk to Brian about how the majority can assemble and organize against an increasingly violent, fascist, Trump regime, aided by a complicit GOP, that is playing for all the marbles. We also discuss the strategy of reaching out to former Trump voters and how much political purity should stand in the way of political victories. Finally, we talk about feckless Democratic leadership and how they must respond to meet the moment and the people.
Give us a watch!
