—

October 20, 2019

Dale Jackson and Dr. Waymon Burke take you through this week’s biggest political stories, including:

— Is the war of words between U.S. Representative Bradley Byrne (R-Fairhope) and U.S. Senator Doug Jones (D-AL) a proxy war for President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden?

— Will Alabama Democrats ever end their infighting and unite as a party?

— Are congressional Democrats ever going to actually move on impeachment or is this all theater?

Jackson and Burke are joined by former Madison County Democratic Party Chairman Tom Ryan to discuss the Alabama Democrat’s civil war.

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” where he talks about the plan to finally address the issue of prison crowding in Alabama.

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 am weekdays on WVNN.
