Ep 44: The Politics of Being Unpopular - Featuring Brandon Johnson

On this week's filibuster, Jemele fires back at right wing critics who are outraged over Cracker Barrel changing its logo. Jemele is then joined by Chicago mayor Brandon Johnson, who has faced and met many challenges since being elected two years ago. Among them, Mayor Johnson discusses what it will take to keep the Chicago Bears in Chicago, as the Bears are also considering a new stadium home outside of Chicago. The mayor also shares how he is navigating Donald Trump’s attacks on Chicago, the rising tension between Chicago residents and migrants, and what he has done to lower the number of homicides in Chicago. And finally, Jemele has a special message for the newly-engaged couple, Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
