Description

The State of the Union is not good -- Harold Meyerson of The American Prospect on the president's speech Tuesday night -- and whether "socialism" is as big a negative for Americans as Trump thinks it is.
Also: as of October, 2018, California had filed 44 lawsuits against Trump, and more are expected for 2019. We talk with Manuel Pastor about climate, immigration and the future of California v. Trump.
Plus Elizabeth Kolbert, Pulitzer-prize winning author of The Sixth Extinction: An Unnatural History, on Trump, climate and endangered species.
