2747 - Republican Triage; The Fate of Brazil; Next Progressive Fighter w/ Guillaume Long, Mai Vang

It's Hump Day on The Majority Report

On today's program:

Senator Susan Collins and challenger Troy Jackson debate and it doesn't go well for old Kickback Collins. Troy nails shaky Susan on her voting in favor of the War on Iran five times before changing her mind, on her deciding vote to nominate Justice Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, and her record of voting with Donald Trump at a 96% rate.

Guillaume Long, former Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ecuador and senior research fellow at the Center for Economic and Policy Research, joins for a conversation about the rise of the far-right in South America and the elections in Brazil.

Mai Vang, candidate running to represent California's 7th Congressional District, joins for a conversation about her campaign.

In the Fun Half:

Trump is asked by a local reporter in Nebraska what his message is to the ranchers who are struggling to turn a profit as the president chooses to import 300,000 tons of foreign beef.

Davram Stiefler from The Good Liars interviews a Trump voter who cannot think of a single example to back up his claims about everything Trump said in 2024 coming true.

In a debate between candidates running to represent Michigan's 7th Congressional District, Democrat Will Lawrence stymies his Republican opponent over data center support.

Victor Marx, the lunatic GOP candidate for governor in Colorado, responds to backlash over his joking about abusing his wife on a podcast by saying it was fine because his wife is a badass who doesn't leave the house without her tomahawk, night-vision goggles, and grenade.

all that and more.
