Podcast Episode 92: The Unpopular Front
Solo this week, I cover an update on the Satanists saving Abortion rights; and essays exploring the current Popular front that has developed since summer to beat both Trump and the radical Left, and historically how this strategy backfires for progressives anyway. In the 2nd Half I talk to Richard Moser, a retired labor organizer with a lot of experience who shares his views on the situation and what the near future holds for the Left and people power. Warning: Connection issues lead to my audio in the 2nd half being bad. Richard and what he has to say is clear though.
