The Warning Signs Are Everywhere

Mike examines a series of developments he sees as warning signs about the direction of the country, from socialist candidates winning Democratic primaries to growing concerns over immigration, assimilation, and the influence of radical political movements. He questions how Angie Nixon managed to defeat the heavily funded Alexander Vindman in Florida and what her victory says about the broader appeal of the Democratic Socialists of America. Mike also takes aim at Texas Senate candidate James Talarico over his comments about the Carmelo Anthony case and the role of race in jury selection, arguing that the remarks raise troubling questions about the politics of identity and justice. Plus, Mike breaks down another controversy surrounding Darlene Graham Nordone's Senate campaign, including a hot-mic moment that suggested her handlers don't want reporters asking anything too difficult.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
