Episode 148: Last Gasp of Democracy | Lance Mason and America First
Tina and Hillary cover Ohio judge Lance Mason and the rise of America First.
Tina’s Story
Lance Mason served in the Ohio House and Senate before his appointment to the Cuyahoga County Court. BUT his violent actions move him from the bench to the defendant’s table.
Hillary’s Story
The America First Committee began as an isolationist group in early 20th century. BUT its anti-Semitic and racist attitudes are still being used by the GOP today.
