Where is the Democratic Party?

from Velshi Hosted by Dr. Michael Osterholm, Norman Ornstein, Jason Stanley, Hala Gorani, Ali Velshi

With the Republican Party simply being a vessel for Trump and his authoritarian inclinations, it’s more important now than ever that the Democratic Party rise up and defend our democracy. But whether its national leadership is unwilling, or simply unable, to do so, they are largely not meeting this moment; the chaos unfolding at the CDC is a flashing red warning about the politicization of public health in America. But there is a critical lesson we can learn from recent history; and as the war in Gaza reaches day 694, Israel has now begun the initial stages of its operation to take control of Gaza City and more than 500,000 Palestinians are experiencing famine.
