Friday, June 27, 2025 - Bernie on Rogan & what happened to "vote blue no matter who?"
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
Bernie Sanders idd what former VP Kamala Harris didn't - he went (back) on Joe Rogan's podcast last week, and it was illuminating to listen to the host - a prior Sanders supporter in 2016 - agree with the progressive Senator on a range of issues - most notably the ridiculousness of a still-$7.25 per hour minimum wage. Now, it wasn't all coziness; Rogan doesn't see an issue with unfettered sums of cash influencing elections, but Sanders had to plenty to say on that - as did I. It's on that subject, actually that libertarian Robby Soave took to a podcast (and transcribed to The Hill) to weigh in, too. He believes Rogan "SHUT DOWN" Bernie on that. But ... did he? ------ Meanwhile, (centrist, deep pocketed) Democrats gonna do what they do ... freak TF out over the term "democratic socialist" in the wake of Zohar Mamdani's NYC mayoral primary. I've some words for them, too. What they're unaware of in their huddling up and discussing where to through their hefty sums of money to in the general is, they're showing why it's so important to GET money out of politics as much as is feasible. Running theme here. So much for "vote blue no matter who," right? ------ Did you see the piece on CBS Sunday morning a week ago? The story of the couple who's moved to Malta to live off their Social Security in comfort? Wow. Just, wow. ------ Patricia Murphy at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution penned a piece outlining Jewish Georgians' weighing in on the AIPAC v Sen. Jon Ossoff snarl. The Senator apparently isn't pro-Israel 'enough' for them, and timely enough with it. Well, it turns out Jewish Georgians aren't all in line with state Rep. Esther Panitch and AIPAC. AIPAC should hear folks like Rabbi (a RABBI!!!) Michael Rothbaum and Dr. Michael Greenwald out.
