Episode 46: Sam Inglot of Progress Michigan on GOP's moral and ethical rot
Episode 46, Jul 20, 2023, 02:15 PM
Here's the 46th episode of Michigan's premier progressive podcast!
I start-out this week talking about taking the battle to the right wing forces in our state. I illustrated why state Senator Mallory McMorrow's "We will not let hate win," speech went viral. It resonated with millions across the country because McMorrow did what so many of us want to see from Democrats: fighting back. In Michigan, progressive Democrats did fight back, take over the state government, and are now making the lives of millions of people better by reinvesting in them. And that's why the right wing is trying to recall five Democratic state house representatives.
I then have a talk with Sam Inglot, executive director of Progress Michigan. We cover state Attorney General Dana Nessel's announcement of charging the 16 Michigan Republican officials who tried to act like fake electors in their attempts to steal the 2020 election for Donald Trump. We also highlight how we're expanding voting rights in the state, and some of the other work Progress Michigan is doing both across the state, and on the local level.

The "Last Call" further illustrates how the right wing Michigan GOP continues to double-down by trying to add more guns in their quest to... quell our gun violence in our state?
