In part two, I'm thrilled to talk with Elizabeth Guzmán, the new Delegate representing Virginia's 31st District. She is a fellow immigrant, strong woman of color, and unapologetic progressive who defeated an eight-term Republican incumbent to become one of the first Latinas ever elected to the Virginia State House. And I discuss #MeToo, Rob Porter and the White House's shameful handling of domestic violence allegations against him.

In part one of this episode, I'm joined by John Nichols, National Affairs correspondent for The Nation, to discuss a recent string of unlikely Democratic victories in traditionally Republican districts, from Wisconsin to Alabama. How we can build on this momentum and carry it forward? I also reflect on the government shutdown and how Democrats should be standing strong for Dreamers.
