Lee Camp, we break down a fast-moving wave of policy choices that hit everyday workers where it hurts: paychecks, bargaining power, and basic stability. The episode walks through eight major ways the current administration’s agenda can tilt the playing field away from working families, from tax policy and safety-net cuts to changes that weaken accountability and oversight across federal agencies.
We also unpack how labor protections and enforcement can be reshaped behind the scenes—through appointments, funding decisions, and structural moves that ripple out to unions, workplace rights, and the data institutions people rely on to understand the economy. If you care about wages, benefits, organizing, and who actually holds power in the workplace, this segment connects the dots in a way the headlines often miss.
Then we pivot to a “deconstructed” look at the U.S. policing debate—and why so much of the conversation stays stuck on surface-level reforms instead of asking deeper questions about mission, training, and what responsibilities should (and shouldn’t) be handled by armed officers. The segment explores alternative models for non-criminal calls, traffic enforcement, and community support, with an eye toward reducing harm while keeping essential public safety functions intact.
If you’re looking for sharp political comedy with a focus on worker rights, unions, labor policy, economic inequality, government oversight, and policing reform, you’re in the right place. Watch, like, subscribe, and share—and drop a comment with the worker issue or public-safety change you think deserves real debate (not just performative talking points).
