Really interesting to see the Vice President cast that vote before dawn. Well, certainly she leaves the u. S. Senate and she has to be back in that chair to break the tie. This isnt the first time youll see her breaking ties in an effort to try and pass the president s covid relief package. Look, this was a major moment on the senate floor, and they started this entire process yesterday at 2 30 in the afternoon. Then they had 15 hours of what is known up here as a voterama.

Hardy. Tonight, we are in tara hot in the museum. Let me introduce you to one of our guests with us throughout the program tonight. Earnest free bird is a debs biographer. Its been 85 years since debs died. Why would we care about him . He was one of the most important labor leaders and in a crucial time of conflict between labor and capital. He was the central figure in the socialist movement at a time when it was a viable and growing part of the american political culture. Is he interesting as a snapshot in time . Where does he have a Lasting Legacy . Like many Third Party Candidates he and his fellow socialist managed to move the conversation and import directions that have affected the development of american democracy ever since. In that regard, he is of his time, but also having a long impact. Well have time to delve into some of the elections more deeply later on.
