The trap of poverty wages. According to researchers, the number of Americans living at or near the poverty line has risen sharply since the beginning of the pandemic. This week, we hear from experts about the plight of poverty-wage workers around the world and the best strategies for combatting those conditions at home. Annelise Orleck Historian Annelise Orleck traveled the world to write a book about  workers who live on poverty wages. What she found gave her a renewed sense of hope and possibility. Elizabeth Lower-Basch Elizabeth Lower-Basch has a long history inside and outside of government figuring out the best ways to assist struggling families. She says that “work requirements” for people on public assistance is exactly not the way to help. Jim Hightower   How Can Democrats Save the Party… From Their Own Leaders?   “It's over.” “Biden's numbers are in the ditch.” “Democrats are doomed.” “Call the priest.”   These are Democrats talking! Even before November's congressional elections are run, many conventional-thinking Democratic operatives are surrendering to a presumed Republican sweep. You don't need a political science degree to know that if you start out announcing that you'll lose, chances are you will. Bill Press "We're in a Bad Place Right Now."

A lot of people believe our politics are broken.  Dr. Norman Ornstein says the fault lies squarely with one political party—and will likely shape the course of the Biden administration. Ornstein is a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), where he studies politics, elections, and the U.S. Congress.  He is a cohost of AEI’s “Election Watch” series, a contributing editor and columnist for National Journal and The Atlantic, a BBC News election analyst, and the chairman of the Campaign Legal Center.  He previously served as codirector of the AEI-Brookings Election Reform Project and senior counselor to the Continuity of Government Commission.  A longtime observer and analyst of American politics and the U.S. Congress, he has been involved in political reform for decades, particularly campaign finance reform and the reform of Senate committees. He has also played a part in creating the Congressional Office of Compliance and the House Office of Congressional Ethics.  Ornstein was elected fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2004.  He is the author of “One Nation After Trump: A Guide for the Perplexed, the Disillusioned, the Desperate, and the Not-Yet Deported,” with E. J. Dionne and Thomas E. Mann, “It’s Even Worse Than It Looks: How the American Constitutional System Collided with the New Politics of Extremism;” “The Broken Branch: How Congress Is Failing America and How to Get It Back on Track,” with Thomas E.

As of Saturday, a dozen Republican Senators had promised to join about 140 Republican members of the House in voting against certifying that Joe Biden has been elected President.  That vote is scheduled for Wednesday. Yesterday, the Atlanta Journal Constitution and the Washington Post released a tape and transcript of a call between President Trump and his White House legal team and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger and his legal team, in which the President said, quote, “So look. All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have. Because we won the state.” ‘I just want to find 11,780 votes.’ This call lasted an hour.  The President repeatedly pressured Raffensperger to overturn the will of the people in GA.  The votes have been counted three times, and the results, like those of all 50 states, have been certified. The President’s attempt to have GA officials change the outcome of the election follows similar attempts to have officials in MI and PA do the same thing. Joe Biden will be inaugurated on January 20, but there is a real possibility that it will not be a completely peaceful transfer of power.  At Donald Trump’s urging, his supporters are assembling in Washington prepared to protest, perhaps violently, the congressional vote on Wednesday and Biden’s inauguration two weeks later. In 2017, a year after Donald Trump’s stunning victory, EJ Dionne and Norman Ornstein, two of America’s most highly respected political observers, along with Thomas Mann of the Brookings Institution, published a persuasive and important book called One Nation After Trump: A Guide for the Perplexed, the Disillusioned, the Desperate and the Not-Yet Deported.  The book includes prescriptions for fixing our electoral system and formulating what they call a new Patriotism, a new Civil Society, and a new Democracy. Today on Midday, with the Trump Administration in its twilight, and with Congressional calls for a criminal investigation into the President after this latest episode, we’ve invited EJ Dionne and Norman Ornstein back to our show to reflect on this unprecedented Presidency, and the way forward for our country. Norman Ornstein is a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, and a contributing editor and columnist for The National Journal and The Atlantic. E.J. Dionne is a senior fellow at The Brookings Institution, a syndicated columnist for The Washington Post,  and a professor at Georgetown University.  He also offers commentary each week on NPR’s All Things Considered. They join us on Zoom… See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The book was number four on the New York Times bestseller list. Also: Would Pence be worse? Jane Mayer of The New Yorker reports—she interviewed more than 60 people in search of answers, including Pence’s mother. Several say he’s wanted to be president at least since high school.

As a standoff between Congress and the White House potentially brings upon a constitutional crisis in this country we talk to political scientist Thomas E. Mann. Guest: Thomas E. Mann is Senior Fellow in Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution and Resident Scholar at the Institute of Governmental Studies at UC Berkeley. He is the author and co-author of several books, his latest is One Nation After Trump: A Guide for the Perplexed, the Disillusioned, the Desperate, and the Not-Yet Deported.

In an 82-minute State of the Union address that was long on introductions and short on new proposals to achieve the bipartisan cooperation the President says he aspires to, Donald Trump repeated his oft-repeated claims about illegal immigration. And, with an ad-lib, he also elevated a questionable claim about legal immigration, and he even attempted some soaring rhetoric as he finished an address that was notable for what it didn’t include as much as what it did. The headline on FoxNews.com this morning was “Trump rejects socialism as expressionless Dems sit unmoved.” The Washington Post editorial board said the speech “reflected endurance if not eloquence.” A Make America Great Again Rally has been scheduled for February 11th in the southern border town of El Paso, TX. That’s four days before the deadline that could result in another partial government shutdown over border security. And former Democratic candidate for Governor of Georgia, Stacy Abrams, made her debut on the national stage, offering a Democratic response to Mr. Trump that was praised by the Post as well as Chris Wallace and Laura Ingraham of Fox. Norman Ornstein joins us. He’s a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, a contributing editor and columnist for the National Journal and The Atlantic, and a co-author, with EJ Dionne and Thomas Mann of One Nation After Trump: A Guide for the Perplexed, the Disillusioned, the Desperate, and the Not-Yet Deported. He joins us on the line from Washington DC.

Michele and Igor speak with Jack Jenkins, senior religion reporter for ThinkProgress, to get the answer.

What is the connection between Republican Party extremism before Trump and the rise of Trump? What kinds of economic and political reforms can best preserve American democracy? What will life after Trump, and Trumpism, look like in the United States? On Episode 19 of the ELB Podcast, we talk with Tom Mann and Norm Ornstein, co-authors with E.J. Dionne of the new book, One Nation After Trump: A Guide for the Perplexed, the Disillusioned, the Desperate, and the Not-Yet Deported.

Just nine months into his presidency, Donald Trump has only begun to form a government. But we already have a new book. One Nation after Trump is subtitled "A Guide for the Perplexed, the Desperate and the Not-Yet Deported." Is it preliminary, even presumptuous to start planning for the country after the 45th president? The book has three authors, EJ Dionne and Thomas Mann -- veteran journalists with the Brookings Institution -- and Norman Ornstein, resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, who joins us today.

J. Dionne Selected Quotes “What I really wanted to emphasize, especially with It’s Even Worse Than It Looks was that we’ve moved from partisanship to tribalism. And there’s a real difference. You can be a strong partisan—view people on the other side of the aisle as worthy adversaries. And that’s partisanship. If you view people on the other side as evil and trying to destroy your way of life, and the enemy, that’s tribalism.”   Other Episodes of Half Hour of Heterodoxy

Mike welcomes back to the show political scientist and American Enterprise Institute Resident Scholar Norman Ornstein. They talk about his latest book: One Nation After Trump: A Guide for the Perplexed, the Disillusioned, the Desperate, and the Not-Yet Deported. Mike and Dr. Ornstein discuss why Donald Trump's victory does and doesn't mean, whether ‘presidential demeanor' really matters, if President Trump's liberties with the truth are that much of a break with the past, if presidents can pardon themselves, whether those on the left calling for the ‘normalization' of impeachment have a point, and lots more.
