## Resource

I breakdown a recent Op-Ed about AOC in the New York Times, her plan to win back working class voters, how the Democrats have lost the working class over decades, the progressive movement's part in this departure, and I also analyze the campaign of Kat Abughazaleh, an anti-establishment primary challenger & what clues this gives us about the progressive movement in the Trump 2.0 era Follow me on X: EvanwchFollow me on Instagram: EvanbarkerIGFollow me on TikTok: realEvanBarker
