Here's Episode 80 of Michigan's premier progressive podcast!
This week, Pat takes the Michigan Republicans to task, and the handful of right-wing Michigan sheriffs, who stood on stage with Donald Trump this week in Grand Rapids. Trump showed-up in our state to exploit the death of Ruby Garcia, who was shot and killed by someone she knew. The alleged killer is an illegal immigrant, and that's all Trump wanted to focus on. No, he didn't address domestic violence, which is exactly what this is! No, he didn't address gun violence. And even though Trump said he talked with the victim's family, the family said he didn't talk to any family member! Plus, Trump didn't want to remind everyone how he torpedoed the Republican immigration bill in D.C.! It was about stoking anger and fear to his base while offering NO solutions.
And shame on all of those sheriffs for being part of this political rally, filled with racism and lies.
In the "Last Call," Pat takes a Lansing columnist to task for declaring that abortion rights won't be a key issue in the 2024 election.
