As Trump returns to the White House, backed by a coalition of billionaires and blue-collar workers alike, we’re joined by Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). Together, we confront the growing disconnect between Democrats and their working class roots, discuss strategies for advancing progressive priorities in a resistant Congress, and explore what it would take to rebuild a party that actually delivers for working people.

Hey, everybody. Welcome. I came out of my seat on that one. I was so excited to be speaking with you. Welcome to the weekly show pod. We are recording this on the Tuesday. Following the inauguration of the 47th president of the United States, also the 45th president of the United States, Mr. Donald Trump, our guest today will be Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
I'm excited to talk to her because this is shit is changing by the millisecond. Things are executive orders are flying. Oligarchs are tweeting, it's all happening. Everything that was done in this previous administration has been repealed. The Gulf of Mexico is now the Gulf of America. Canada is now officially classified as our hat. I don't know what's changing. We're not in the climate accord.
We don't... America... has announced itself as we don't give a fuck. The mountains have different names. I don't even know what I'm looking at on a map. I feel like it's one of those, when you get one of those maps from like the 19, when England would just go in and just redraw, like, okay, that country doesn't exist anymore. I'm just going to call that, I don't know, Lebanon.
Why don't we do that? Here's Syria and draw a little line. And I don't know. It's going to take weeks to just parse everything. Just what the rules are. Any more about gravity is still in effect, I believe. Or did he executive order that as well? I don't quite know. You're apparently now allowed to shit in the water. Like, I don't know. It's all a blur.
Everything that we thought we knew about the infrastructure and what to call it. America's back, baby. We're back. Not just as a country and a family of nations, but as the nation. We win, you lose. Biatch? I don't know if that's... Whatever that translates to in Latin. That is the new... motto of the United States of America.
