Culture battles galore from the US to Italy while MAGA burns its voters in GA

Culture battles galore from the US to Italy while MAGA burns its voters in GA

Our scheduled conversation with former Dekalb CEO Mike Thurmond got postponed at the last minute, so it was a mad scramble for show fodder today, but ... not too shabby:

  • Ron caught up with with his "amigo," radio consultant Jose Flores to discuss the Bad Bunny-centered Super Bowl halftime show to hear why the performance resonated with Latin Americans near and far.
  • Not enough "culture war?" Now US Olympic athletes have to be careful not to trigger an avalanche of MAGA "snowflakes" with words of concern.
  • Democratic organizer Seth Taylor shared a firsthand experience witnessing the political shift among longtime MAGA voters facing rising costs and economic uncertainties. Ron offered his "win," too - convincing an under-40 white Nevada male friend to register and vote to alter the course of the country.
  • CBS News congressional correspondent Nicole Killian explains the fight over ICE and DHS funding and why it was carved out of a deal to avoid a government shutdown.
  • The focus then shifts to Georgia, where Senator Jon Ossoff drew sharp contrasts at a College Park rally while, in Social Circle, residents push back against plans for a large ICE detention facility promising to strain that city's resources.
