The second term is underway and the country is awake to the new center-left America. But conservative elites can’t stand it.
Tonight on “The Ed Show” at 8p/11pET on msnbc, Ed Schultz welcomes Katrina Vanden Heuvel, Editor and Publisher of The Nation, to discuss Barack Obama and the official end of the Reagan era.
Then, President Obama lays out the progressive agenda for his second term. Ed will ask Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) how Democrats will carry out the president’s plans.
Of course, none of it means anything if the Obama agenda can’t get through the Senate. Senator Jeff Merkley (D-OR) joins us with breaking news on filibuster reform.
Republicans can’t win elections with their policies, so Reince Priebus and the gang are hard at work rigging the Electoral College system. Ed responds to the latest stunner from Virginia with Joan Walsh, Salon’s Editor at Large, and author ( “What’s The Matter With White People? Why We Long For A Golden Age That Never Was”), and Democratic Strategist Bob Shrum.
One of the best golfers in the world is losing it over his tax rate. We’ll fact check Phil Mickelson’s ridiculous claim.
And in the BIG Finish, it’s been four years since Wall Street greed brought the country to its knees and no one’s gone to jail! PBS’ “Frontline” correspondent Martin Smith previews a new documentary that tries to explain why.
It’s going to be another essential @edshow tonight at 8p/11pET on @msnbctv.
