Here's Episode 108 of Michigan's Premier Progressive Podcast!
Visit MichiganVoting.org for voting information.
00:00-19:07: Trump's Fascism/Rick Snyder's Sad
Pat Johnston begins the episode talking about how Dear Leader Trump's former Chief Of Staff, John Kelly, called his former boss a fascist. And even though Trump has praised Hitler, the MAGA Republican Party continue to rush to his defense. That's why the story of Trump calling deceased U.S. Army soldier Vanessa Guillen an "F-ing Mexican," is celebrated within MAGA circles rather than reviled. Pat also talks about former Michigan Republican Governor Rick Snyder's crusade to help MAGA Republicans take control of the state house. Snyder, who spent years painting himself as a moderate "nerd," is proving there's no difference between he and MAGA. That's what Pat's always been saying!
19:08-36:55: Sam Inglot of Progress Michigan
Sam Inglot, Executive Director of Progress Michigan, joins the show to talk about the importance of getting people to the polls this election. Pat and Sam talk about that while the presidential race is important, the down-ballot races are just as vital. Elections for who takes over Congress, the state House, and the State Supreme Court are important to Michigan's future when it comes to the economy, social justice rights, union rights, LGBTQ+ rights, environmental justice, clean energy economy, and more. Plus, Sam also shares how the ultra-right wing Heritage Foundation's "Project 2025" will attack Michigan's rural and farming communities, as well as the more populated areas across the state. Please, make sure people get to the polls! Visit MichiganVoting.org for voting information.
36:56-42:41: Last Call--Democrats Losing Gen Z Men?
This week's "Last Call" deals with a post declaring that the Democratic Party is losing male Gen Z voters, and they've got to do more to reach them. Pat wonders how, exactly, are Democrats supposed to reach this voting bloc, which is supposedly voting more MAGA.
42:42-45:29: Ending/UM-MSU Prediction
