Don breaks down one of the most disturbing stories yet, the Trump Labor Department’s new “American Workers First” campaign, a glossy AI-powered propaganda push that looks straight out of the 1950s.

This isn’t innovation, it’s restoration. Restoration of a lie. A fantasy of white dominance and conformity disguised as progress. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
