## Resource

Brian is joined by former Chief Counsel to the House Judiciary Committee Julian Epstein to break down the radical shifts happening within the modern political landscape. Epstein delivers a blistering critique of the academic and activist classes feeding today’s Democratic politicians, explaining why an inability to understand wealth creation has led the left to push dangerous "deconstructionist" narratives. From the stunning hypocrisy surrounding Maine candidate Graham Platner’s endless scandals to the left’s shocking lack of moral clarity on Israel, Epstein explains why centrist and independent voters are executing a massive, permanent political realignment.
