Here's Episode 146 of Michigan's Premier Progressive Podcast!
00:00-12:20: Haley Stevens Senate Campaign Fails
Pat Johnston opens the show by highlighting a very bad and embarrassing week for Establishment Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Haley Stevens. It shows again how corporate Democrats find progressive candidates more of a threat than the Trump Regime's authoritarianism. Pat talks about how MAGA "Democratic" State Rep. Karen Whitsett proudly voted for the MAGA Michigan House budget that'll hurt Detroiters, and all of Michigan. And now, she's running for the Detroit City Council District 7 seat. But, Detroiters have an alternative to Whitsett. A working class alternative.
12:21-36:30 Denzel McCampbell Interview
Democratic Socialist Denzel McCampbell earned a surprising primary victory over Karen Whitsett for the Detroit City Council District 7 seat. McCampbell and Whitsett will face-off again in the general election in November. Denzel joins Pat on the show this week to talk about his run for the Council seat, and why his campaign is resonating with so many working class Detroiters.

36:31-46:37: RFK Jr. anti-vax insanity
In the "Last Call," Pat covers how Health & Human Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. is creating a national security emergency by restricting the COVID vaccine, and by defunding vaccine research.
46:38-49:15: Ending/Lions
