The Democratic National Committee’s Meeting in Texas

from RealClearPolitics Podcast · host RealClear Media

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss the Democratic National Committee’s weekend meeting in Austin, TX and the internal struggle between traditional Democrats and the party’s emerging socialist wing. Also, they talk about the Democratic Socialists of America celebrating the 100th birthday of Fidel Castro just in time for tomorrow’s Florida Democratic primary. Then, they discuss the online fight between billionaire Mark Cuban and California Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) over the state’s proposed billionaire wealth tax. And, they chat about Governor Gavin Newsom and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer agreeing that “no one” wants to talk about Covid. Next, they discuss the apparent suicide of Jason Arday at age 41, who was the youngest ever Black professor at the University of Cambridge and was accused of plagiarism and lying about his background. And finally, they talk about a mother and daughter at Sunday’s WNBA game between the Indiana Fever and the Atlanta Dream who were instructed by security to cover up the XX-XY t-shirts they were wearing in support of player Sophie Cunningham.
