from The Rick Smith Show Hosted by Rick Smith

On this episode of the Rick Smith Show, Rick digs into the latest jobs numbers revision with Sara Estep, economist at the Center for American Progress, who explains what the data reveals about the sinking Trump economy and the widening struggles for working families. Together, they uncover how the administration’s rosy rhetoric hides deep economic pain. Later, Jill Manrique, Executive Director of Chicago Jobs with Justice, joins the conversation to discuss grassroots responses to Trump’s so-called “Operation Midway Blitz” and how workers are turning backlash into organizing strength to confront authoritarian attacks and reclaim power in their workplaces and communities.
