Manage episode 509694498 series 3312413
The Mincing Rascals this week are Jon Hansen of WGN Radio and Block Club Chicago, Eric Zorn, publisher of The Picayune Sentinel, Austin Berg, Executive Director of the Chicago Policy Center and The Last Ward, and political pundit Marj Halperin! The Rascals start the show this week talking about federal agents marching through downtown Chicago. Is there a long-term goal that the Trump administration is hoping to achieve by bringing these federal agents to the city? President Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth spoke in front of military officials yesterday. What were the Rascals major takeaways from the rally? Next, the government shutdown after Congress failed to reach a funding deal. Who is to blame? Does anybody really care? Also, the Rascals talk about the future of the Democratic party. Who will lead the party through these next few years and into 2028? And finally, it’s time for the red light, yellow light, green light. What are the Rascals recommending (or not recommending) this week?
