Here's Episode 96 of Michigan's Premier Progressive Podcast!
00:00-20:56: Why Not Whitmer for Vice President?
While she has steadfastly refused to be Vice President Kamala Harris' own pick for VP, some of us wonder, "Why Not Whitmer?" Michigan Advance's Editor-in-Chief, Susan Demas, joins the first segment to discuss how and why Michigan Governor Whitmer would be such an asset for the Democratic ticket this Fall. We also cover some of Whitmer's liabilities as well. But ultimately, Susan and Pat believe Governor Whitmer's experiences, and progressive resume, are something Democrats can learn from across the country.
20:57-39:40: MAGA & Tech Fascism w/ Jared Yates Sexton
Writer and podcast Jared Yates Sexton wrote an important piece on the marriage between MAGA and Tech Fascism on his Dispatches From a Collapsing State" substack page. Jared's also part of the Muckrake Political Podcast, which helps bring a little order to these crazy political times. Pat and Jared talk about how the tech oligarchs, like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, are the new robber-barons of this time, and why they see Trump and J.D. Vance as a conduit to their anti-democratic goals.
39:41-45:54--Last Call on Min Wage Victory!
The Michigan State Supreme Court rules this week how a Republican move to block voter-driven proposals to raise the minimum wage, and for paid family leave days, was unconstitutional! Pat explains why this is a major victory for Michigan workers, and for the entire state!
45:56-49:00: UAW Endorses Harris/Ending
