2769 - Schumer & Jeffries On The Ropes?; The Socialist Blueprint w/ Bhaskar Sunkara, Ben Burgis

It's Monday and that means another Majority Report.

On today's program:

As a whole new class of Democrats head to Washington D.C., the debate over party leadership heats up.

Scott Colom, the likely Senator from Mississippi, says he is concerned that the Democratic leaders from both the House and Senate live in the same city. Colom also called out the Dem leadership for neglecting Mississippi, saying that their lack of investment in the state tells voters that they don't care about them.

California first DSA-backed U.S. Representative, Angela Gonzalez-Torres, says that as of right now she would not support Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker of the House.

Bhaskar Sunkara and Ben Burgis join to discuss their book they co-authored along with Mike Beggs, The Blueprint: How Socialism Can Work in the Real World

Bhaskar Sunkara is president of The Nationmagazine, founder and editorial director of Jacobin.

Ben Burgis is a Jacobin columnist, an adjunct philosophy professor at Rutgers University, and the host of the YouTube show and podcast Give Them An Argument.

In the Fun Half:

Ezra Klein, who is an ass, claims that Abdul El-Sayed, Peggy Flanagan and Angie Nixon all underperformed in the midterms. Klein's analysis was obviously determined before election results were even finished.

Newly elected U.S. Rep. Victoria Broderick (D-TN) discusses how she flipped a seat with no help whatsoever from the party.

JD Vance tries to joke about the midterms but fails miserably because he is an ass with no sense of humor.
