People Power Beats Money (feat. Nick Schwellenbach)

Thursday, June 26th, 2025

Today, Republicans capitulated to the lies that spewed forth from the mouth of Emil Bove in his confirmation hearing before the Senate Judiciary Wednesday; Zohran Mamdani defeated Cuomo in the New York City mayoral primary sending another message that people power is strong than the political money machine; the Trump administration is kicking the National Science Foundation out of its offices as HUD moves in; a suspect linked to a Palm Springs fertility clinic bombing has died in federal custody; Representative LaMonica McIver has pled not guilty to the ridiculous charges brought against her by parking lot lawyer Alina Habba; a federal judge has halted Trump’s bid to end collective bargaining rights for federal workers; a judge holds a hearing over bail conditions for Kilmar Abrego Garcia; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.
