Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Alabama Democratic Party Executive Committee member Lisa Handback take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— Now that Joe Biden is president, what should Americans expect from his administration?

— Is former President Donald Trump’s “America First” agenda over, and who benefits from the first actions taken by the new President of the United States?

— Will Alabama actually lose a U.S. House seat because of a Biden executive action that will allow illegal immigrants to be counted for apportionment?

Jackson and Handback are joined by Madison County Commissioner Violet Edwards to discuss the acquiring of federal funding for COVID-19-relate relief .

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” at members of Congress who need to just censure President Donald Trump and move on but who insist on dragging the country through another impeachment for no reason.
