from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts

Well, we know Ronnie D's running (even if Twitter's audio feed wasn't); it's the support that he and Trump combined get that's so troubling. For a group of self-professed patriots and lovers of country, it's just odd they go with "dividers" instead of uniters. Also odd that Elon "free speech" Musk aligns in any way with Governor Ron "Book Ban This," eh? Even Amanda Gorman's "The Hill We Climb" is a no-go in a Florida school, thanks to Ron's (ahem) "leadership." I'm joined today by Craig Harrington, research director at Media Matters for America. The idea was to discuss media coverage of the debt ceiling (made-up) crisis, and we do get to it; but it's hard not to note the one-year anniversary of the Uvalde mass school shooting massacre, and also the death of an icon in Tina Turner.
