Show Notes

In this episode we’ll discuss the impact mainstream media has on political discourse, and specifically talk about how they can actually make or break campaigns of particular candidates. In the case of Bernie Sanders, we’ll discuss how MSNBC’s relentless attacks on him is actually having a dangerous impact on broader political discourse. Additionally, we’ll discuss the protests in Puerto Rico, why some House progressives let us down, and we’ll talk to U.S. Senate candidate Steven Cox, who wants to take on Mitch McConnell in 2020.
