NWJ832- The Weekly Wolfson: New Left, Same Tricks

About this episode

Jose Galison and Matt Wolfson discuss the Democratic Party's rebranding efforts and the persistence of identity politics within its structure.

In this week’s edition of The Weekly Wolfson on No Way, Jose!, host Jose Galison welcomes back journalist Matt Wolfson for a no-holds-barred discussion on the current state of the political left. Drawing from Matt’s latest piece in the Libertarian Institute, “Empire with a Humanitarian Face: Democrats Rebrand,” the two explore how the Democratic Party is attempting a fresh rebrand while preserving its core power structures. They examine the establishment’s well-honed tactics for bringing rising progressive stars back into line and analyze the deliberate shift away from overt “woke” aesthetics even as identity politics remains deeply embedded in the party’s DNA. The conversation also highlights key figures such as Zohran Mamdani, Platner, and Gavin Newsom, while drawing clear parallels to past political campaigns and careers like those of Obama and Clinton—showing how the same patterns of messaging, co-option, and image management continue to repeat. As always, The Weekly Wolfson delivers sharp geopolitics and ethnopolitics analysis free of corporate media spin. Don’t miss NWJ832 – The Weekly Wolfson: New Left, Same Tricks. Read Matt's Work…
