Political Playlist Happy Hour

Contrary to the words of America's Pop Star Sweetheart, The US is in fact gonna do regime change and it's underway in Venezuela. Michael, Anna and Anthony kick off the new year with some fresh takes on the recent US extraction of President Maduro, before shifting their gears towards Jake Auchincloss, the politician on their playlist and according to the WaPo, perhaps the future of centrist democrats. Then, the gang discusses how to talk about Jan 6, and highlight the story of a particularly commendable America Pamela Hemphill seeking redemption for her actions on that day.

On this final Happy Hour before the holiday break, Michael, Anna and Anthony discuss the latest in a tragic weekend filled with all sorts of senseless violence, and particularly how our leaders respond to such events. The gang then discusses Marie Gluesenkamp Perez of Washington, and how to talk about this damning Vanity Fair article on the Trump Administration Cabinet.

On this episode of the Happy Hour, Michael, Anna and Anthony breakdown the latest news surrounding the soon to be expiring ACA subsidies unless Congress gets their act together! We then talk about Haley Stevens, the politician on our Playlist, we discuss how to talk about the Texas Senate race and then we bring you the win of the week in the form of Anna Paulina Luna fighting to ban Congressional stock trading.

On this episode of the Happy Hour, Michael and Anna break down all the latest turbulent news about Secretary of Bro Energy Pete Hegseth and the newly uncovered reporting about his boat strikes. Then, Anna and Anthony welcome back to the show William He, the young founder of Dream For America, a progressive organization he started at the age of 16. Update, he's only still in college. So he's pretty impressive to say the least.

This Thanksgiving week we're truly GIVING with this re-release of our interview with Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL). He's 28 years old, has been in office for 3 years, is a badass drummer and leader of the progressive movement. We chat about his journey into politics via the gun control movement and how he messages so well as a young politician. Enjoy and Happy Thanksgiving!
