 Hello and welcome to Behind the News. My name is Doug Henwood. Unlike American political parties, Behind the News adheres to its fundamental structures, which means two guests in two segments today. We'll hear from the UAW's Brandon Mancia about J.D. Vance and the GOP's alleged pro-worker turn, and then from Adam Hilton about the nature of our party system. So much of the news these days makes your head spin, which presents great challenges to those of us trying to get behind it.
