Back 2 Brunch

Jay looks up ‘US midterms’ on Wikipedia and then is joined by Roger and Erica to talk about the crushing Republican defeat, the role of populism in the Democratic party, and the DSA’s enormous boost with at least 105 races won and some still being counted. After libbing out and getting back to brunch, we discuss what to do next (hint: it's the labour movement). We also talk about Brazil and the shockingly effective ‘Janonist’ electoral strategy used by the Lula camp.
