About this episode
This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum discuss one of the United States’ main exports: rightwing populism.
While the U.S. is constricting imports from other countries (with serious shortages looming), we continue to be a major exporter of culture, including MAGA culture. We can trace rightwing populist ideology’s spread AND learn a thing or two for our own movements.
We’ll revisit a question we posed on a past MiniPod: should our podcast feature conservative guests? Our hosts have thoughts on this one y’all.
Tens of thousands of government employees are set to be re-classified as “schedule F” political appointees by the Trump administration. Glancing at Project 2025… This looks like preparation for mass layoffs at the Federal government.
Finally, Angela gives us an update on the State of the People tour. She’s on a quest to find the apathetic voters!
