Summary

James and Al decimate the insanity of the incoming Republican congress with a strong defense of immigration and President Biden. Then, they welcome Princeton’s Julian Zelizer to discuss the many myths in our collective memory going from the Revolutionary War all the way to the so-called Reagan Revolution that continue to define the way we think about our country and our politics.

Email your questions to James and Al at [email protected] or tweet them to @politicon. Make sure to include your city, we love to hear where you’re from!
