Quiet, Piggy! (Guest: Mike Musheinesh, Detroit Axle Co.)

from A Republic, If You Can Keep It

On this week’s show… Democrats: Our military’s oath – defend the Constitution. Republicans: That’s sedition! Donald Trump thinks Elissa Slotkin should be executed. Trump sees the Epstein documents parade going in the other direction and runs to lead it…but launches Phase Two for keeping the Epstein files secret. Trump accidentally admits he’s known about Epstein’s abuse of teenagers for more than a decade … now saying that Epstein was a sick pervert and he knew it 20-plus years ago. The Texas gerrymander demanded by Trump gets thrown out by a three-judge appeals panel – with the lead opinion written by a Trump-appointed judge. Want a change in U.S. foreign policy? How about getting some state-of-the-art fighter jets. Or absolution for ordering the vicious murder of an American journalist? And, to top it all off, a black tie VIP dinner at the White House? All it takes is writing big checks, payable to the Trump family. A fringe Republican candidate for Governor has stirred up some hateful anti-Muslim demonstrations in Dearborn.  And the rhetorical temperature is also going up in Hamtramck with another increasingly contentious debate over that city’s mayoral election. Nick Anderson/Raw Story The most recent EPIC-MRA poll shows Michigan voters are angry over the Trump tariffs and what they are doing to the economy. It’s especially important in Michigan, where our top trading partners are Canada, Mexico and China. We’re joined by a Michigan business owner who is suing the Trump administration over the tariffs. Mike Musheinesh has been CEO of Detroit Axle since 2012, taking over from his father Ed Musheinesh, who started the company as a small aftermarket parts shop in 1990. Mike has grown the company into a leading global retailer and distributor of remanufactured and new aftermarket auto parts. Today, Detroit Axle employs hundreds of people in Metro Detroit, and it operates a large online operation to serve customers nationwide. kevinnecessary.substack.com 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
