Summary

Bakari is back and live from Chicago, joined on day three by Politico's Jonathan Martin and Ellen Rucker Sellers. Bakari and Jonathan recap the most memorable moments from night two, including the speeches from the Obamas and the performance by Lil Jon. They discuss the imperatives for Vice President Harris and the Democratic Party this week, as well as what Trump's counter-programming might look like. They close with a preview of night three, including speeches from Governor Tim Walz, former president Bill Clinton, and Mayor Pete Buttigieg. Bakari is then joined by a very special guest—his wife, Ellen Rucker Sellers! They dive into the powerful speeches from the Obamas, the balance that Michelle Obama, Vice President Harris, and many other women strike as working mothers, the importance of reproductive rights as a core issue for the Democratic Party's platform, and more!
