Workers react to the insurrection

Broadcast on January 7, 2021
Hosted by Chris Garlock and Ed Smith

This week's show:
John Boardman (UNITE HERE 25), Jaime Contreras (SEIU 32BJ) and Mark Federici (UFCW 400) on how DC-area workers were affected by Wednesday's insurrection and how they're surviving the pandemic.
Mara Verheyden-Hilliard of the Partnership for Civil Justice Fund, which is demanding an investigation into the federal and local police planning and response to yesterday's events and Harold Meyerson, American Prospect editor, take a deeper dive in Wednesday's events, including the difference in how authorities handled peaceful BLM protests and the violent right-wing mob as well as the short- and long-term political implications.

Plus: George Mann’s “Donnie Took A Dump All Over Twitter”

Produced by Chris Garlock; engineered by Mike Nasella.
