Coronavirus! Democratic primaries! The Census! And Bernie!

It's just me on this one. 

I open the show with my rant on the coronavirus fiasco and read from my latest piece "All Republicans Own the Coronavirus, Not Just Trump".

Then I get into the bogus Census forms the Republican National Committee (RNC) mailed out in a cheap attempt at raising some cash (and getting a look into people's political leanings), and how important it is to complete the authentic form when you receive it this month.

I conclude with the latest Democratic delegate polls and riff on how Bernie still has a mathematical shot at the White House--despite the corporate media and moderate Democrats' victory lap over Joe Biden's surging success. 

Reading from my piece "Bernie is Not a Socialist–He’s a Traditional FDR Democrat", I break down how the "Socialist" label applied to Bernie is reductive, and how he might be better touting himself as an FDR Democrat since his platform is simply a return to Roosevelt's New Deal.
