US House Democrat Dean Phillips

It's all aboard and full steam ahead as the Democratic National Convention kicks off in Chicago. Across the world, U.S. allies -and antagonists- will be watching carefully to get a measure of Kamala Harris' policies and grip on the election. Few could have foreseen the twists and turns that led here, but Democratic Congressman Dean Phillips got pretty close. An early skeptic, he expressed concerns about President Biden's age and ability to run and win a second time and even decided to challenge Biden by running against him in the primaries earlier this year. He joins the program from Chicago. Also on today's show: Jaha Dukureh, Founder, Safe Hands for Girls; Liz Goodwin, Congress Reporter, The Washington Post Learn more about your ad choices.
