Host, Bennett and Co-host, Ashley, dive deep into today's most controversial topics with a strong perception when it comes to being on right side of history.
Episode 8 begins with a clip of Democratic firebrand, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez berating house republicans for using religion in the most backwards way possible, tip of the hat to AOC on this one. Fantastic job!
Segways into a conversation in which we discuss how much money has been spent so far in this Democratic primary with the help of 2 billionaires running for the nomination. We also compare the money spent in the 2020 Dem primary to 2016, 2012, and 2008 to give a better perspective of the scale to which money continues to influence our elections...today.
The hosts also discuss an article by The Intercept in which they sound the alarms on a Tennessee-based DNC member backing an effort to use so-called superdelegates to select the party’s presidential nominee — potentially subverting the candidate with the most voter support — is a Republican donor and health care lobbyist.
Bennett goes off about how frustrating it is to be a progressive within the Democratic party because it seems a lot of their actions goes contrary to that belief.
