Here's Episode 141 of Michigan's Premier Progressive Podcast!
00:00-19:06: Epstein/Corporate Authoritarians/Nessel Goes After MEDC
Pat Johnston opens by illustrating how Dear Leader Trump's decision to not release the Epstein Files shows how the elite, untouchable, oligarch class are always out to protect themselves. We saw that happen in real time when Dear Leader signed the MAGA Murder Budget into law. It's a major giveaway to the corporate class, such as providing tax write-offs for buying private planes. Very working class, indeed. Pat applauds Michigan AG Dana Nessel for going after corruption inside the Michigan Economic Development Corporation.
19:07-44:00: Ivan Diaz, Democratic Socialist Candidate For MI State Senate Seat 29
Democratic Socialist Ivan Diaz, who's running for the Michigan Senate Seat in the 29th District, joins the show to talk about his campaign, and why he believes Now is the right time to represent a transformative working class agenda for his district. Pat and Mr. Diaz discuss his agenda, how to reverse MAGA Republicanism, how to reverse neoliberal policies, and how Democrats can best reach the working class. They also talk about where Democrats fell short in Michigan, and how he'll convince voters that Democratic Socialism serves all people.
44:01-50:00: Last Call-Populism Wins
The "Last Call" argues how Americans are in a populist move, but while MAGA Republicans offer fake-populism, Democratic Party leaders and consultants refuse to back populist economic policies.
50:01-52:54: Ending/Tigers
