Hi, I'm Andy Levy, former Fox News and CNN-HLN guy and current cable news conscientious objector.

I'm a former libertarian who now sits pretty comfortably on the left.

Hi, I'm Danielle Moody, former educator and recovering lobbyist.

But today, I'm an unapologetic, woke commentator on America's threats to democracy.

And I'm producer Jesse Cannon, and I'm here to make sure things don't go too far off the rails.

We're here to have fun, smart conversations with some of the most knowledgeable and entertaining people

in politics, media, and beyond.

Our goal is to try and make sense of our current crazy world, our new abnormal, and hopefully

even make you laugh through the tears.

What a great show we have for you today.

New Jersey Attorney General Matthew J. Plattgen joins us to discuss his office's lawsuit

against the Trump administration's attempts to end birthright citizenship, as well as

arrived together a statewide program-paring law enforcement with mental health professionals

to improve crisis response.

Then, journalist Hamilton Nolan, author of Hammer, Power, Inequality, and the Struggles for

the Soul of Labor, joins us to discuss his essay, The Land of Greater Fools, which explores

how scams and grifts have come to define America's political and economic landscape.

But first, let's have some fun.

So, Danielle, the theme of today's show is

Father Knows Best. Oh, shit. Because what we are seeing is very clearly something that you and I

have been talking about for a while, and other people have to. The Republican Party wants to turn back the clocks to the 50s. And as we've said before, you can argue as to whether that's

1950s or 1850s, and you could make a good case either way. But we'll stick with 1950s for now.
