Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, joins to round up the week in news.
Digby joins, jumping right into the genuinely astonishing divide between federal and state-level Democrats’ ability to function as an opposition party, with Democrats in New York, California, and the Midwest embarrassing national leadership when it comes to preparing (or caring) to fight the Trump administration. Parton, Sam, and Emma also reflect on the coalescing of Big Tech and the Heritage Foundation, dissect some of Elon Musk’s deeper desires for collecting Americans’ data, and assess the chokehold the Musk-Trump regime has on the rest of the Republican Party – from the threat of a primary to the active disregard of their voters’ wishes. After touching once more on the impotence of national Democratic leadership (Hakeem Jeffries) in contrast with state-level leaders (Governor Walz), Digby and MR wrap up by diving deep into Trump’s insane authoritarian confrontation with Ukraine President Zelenskyy during a live press conference today.
