The Coalition Of The Decent
On the day President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to announce he’s replacing Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem following controversy over a costly DHS advertising campaign, Ron revisits one of the final “dress downs” Noem got – at hand of Georgia Rep. Lucy McBath. The detention of Atlanta-based quadriplegic barber Rodney Taylor drew McBath’s ire, and rightfully so.
Ron caught up with comedian Steve Hofstetter ahead of his show at Helium Comedy Club in Alpharetta. Together they discussed Steve’s viral video criticizing a Kansas law targeting transgender driver’s licenses, how politics influences his comedy, and what it’s like hitting the road again just weeks after becoming a father.
Back on news of the day, an aspirational Republican state legislator is trying hard to push a year-old bill to inflict punitive damage on cities and counties that don’t handle homeless ness in their midst to the satisfaction of property owners. of course it does nothing to actually solve homelessness and actually makes that task more difficult by stripping financial resources. Democratic lawmakers lined up to say just that.
Lastly, the Texas Senate primary race may be over, but the after-effects could be something for Democrats to have to overcome in order to win that seat in November. So what cost Rep. Jasmine Crockett – racism & misogyny or self-inflicted wounds?
