Manage episode 518950135 series 3506872
It's News Day Tuesday on the Majority Report
On today's program:
Chuck Schumer is officially persona non grata within the Democratic party. It is unclear whether the 7 Democrats and Angus King caved on the shut down at the behest of Schumer or in defiance of him but what is clear is his ineffectiveness as Senate Minority Leader.
Former New York assemblyman and current primary challenger to Ritchie Torres for the 15-Congressional district of New York, Michael Blake joins the program to discuss his campaign. For more information on Michael's platform check out Michael Blake for Congress.
Editor-in-chief of Balls and Strike, Jay Willis joins Sam to discuss the Supreme Court's case on the legality of Trump's tariffs. For more on this, check out Jay's piece in Balls and Strikes.
In the Fun Half:
Bernie Sanders has choice words for Angus King's claims that "standing up to Trump didn't work"
Donald Trump promises to give air traffic controllers who kept working amidst the shut down a 10k bonus. I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for that bonus if I were an ATC.
In the same interview Trump opines on turning healthcare into market-based accounts that will make people feel like entrepreneurs. Nothing takes the anxiety away from a health concern like having to negotiate a deal for your care.
Patrick Bet-David and his crew react to Zohran Mamdani's proposal to enforce existing laws requiring slumlords to repair their buildings or risk having their properties seized by the city.
Bill Maher and Cheryl Hines have a real deep conversation about Trump's hatred for war. Even though he has bombed Yemen and Iran, killed almost a 100 people in the Caribbean, threatened regime change in Venezuela, to annex Greenland and Canada, etc.
