On the Rick Smith Show, Rick speaks with retired Army Major and NC-9 Congressional candidate Rich Ojeda about Trump’s controversial executive order criminalizing flag burning and the President’s unsettling decision to deploy National Guard soldiers into U.S. cities. Ojeda underscores the dangers these actions pose to constitutional freedoms and democracy. In the second half, economics professor Matías Vernengo joins the conversation to examine the firing of Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook and why expanding working-class representation on the Fed Board is vital to ensure economic policy reflects the needs of ordinary Americans instead of only corporate interests.
