Ed Elson is joined by Kathryn Anne Edwards to discuss what the midterm results reveal about the state of the economy and what voters were really expressing at the ballot box. They explore how Democrats can address some of the country’s biggest challenges, from affordability and housing to health insurance, inequality, and data centers. Kathryn also shares her views on wealth taxes, why prosecuting white-collar crime should be a priority, and what she believes the Democratic Party’s broader mission should be.
