46 - Working Class Politics in Pennsylvania & The Inflation Swindle ft. Paul Prescod

CEOS vs the deep state and demons. 

Paul Prescod (@Paul_Prescod) is running for state senate in Pennsylvania, support him below. Why the state senate? Education, healthcare, green jobs/just transition. How the left addresses violent crime.

Also, Xiomara Castro's victory in Honduras and the 2009 coup.

And a classic GEM segment on the current inflation panic.
