Ep 889: Glib-eration Day

In this week's episode, we break down Trump's chaotic new trade war and its immediate devastating impact on the markets. We draw parallels between this administration's trade "liberation" and the Bush-era Iraq War disaster, examining:The fallout from Trump's sweeping tariff announcements that wiped $1.65 trillion from the US stock market in minutesThe mass layoffs hitting public health agencies, senior services, and cultural institutionsHow Elon Musk's DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) is driving record job cuts across the countrySurprising Democratic victories in local elections across Wisconsin and Illinois despite Musk spending millionsThe ongoing SignalGate scandal expanding as more security lapses are revealedLaura Loomer's alarming influence over national security personnel decisionsJoin us in the Cornfield Resistance for our trademark blend of political analysis, righteous anger, and sardonic humor as we document the latest chapter in Republican mismanagement. As we remind our listeners: "Never forget, it was our Republican neighbors, colleagues and family members who did this. This is what they voted for."More at proleftpod.com.We are scheduled to be on The Bob Cesca show on 4/9/2025.Support the show at Patreon.com/proleftpod, or send a letter/contribution to The Professional Left PodcastPO Box 9133Springfield, IL 62791Support the show
