We had a big night of primary results and while we still have more updates to come in California, we’ve already learned a lot and have an updated rating in the Iowa Senate race. We also talk about some big wins against the Trump crime family and, as it turns out, Americans really don’t like rampant corruption from any party and that is reflected in Trump’s ever sinking approval ratings.

I’m excited to share this interview because I love to highlight the great work being done by local organizers who make a big impact. Charlie Homer was introduced to me by a listener who wrote in to let us know about the organizing against Citizen’s Bank and their support of ICE detention centers. He is a key organizer in the De-ICE Citizens Bank campaign.

Today we recap another crazy week in which a US Senator was tear gassed by ICE agents, a corrupt craven criminal Trump sycophant is the Republican nominee for Senate in Texas, and more redistricting battles end up backfiring for Republicans in South Carolina and Alabama. And we are less than a week away from our California Primary with major implications for control of the House!

As primaries across the country are in full swing, we talk about the most blatant and craven act of corruption and self dealing in the history of our country. Trump’s approval rating hits the 30’s and he’s trying to rake in all that he can to appease his base and try to keep them from talking about the Epstein Files.

Today, Trump’s approvals keep sinking deeper into the toilet as he heads to China for a summit amidst the backdrop of his failing war of choice. Meanwhile here in America, we are fighting back against the egregious redistricting push by Republicans in the wake of SCOTUS’ Callais decision.
