Kamala Harris, the Democrat contender for the U.S. presidency was the most socialist member of the Senate.
Further left than Bernie Sanders, she has more recently been tagged a Marxist.
But is she? In fact, what is she? That is the most asked question amongst undecided voters.

After guesting on podcasts in 2021 & 2022, Rectenwald returns to give us answers to the above, and what a Harris administration would be like.
And, of course, The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
