6/23 Corey Pein & Matt Christman: Republican Ghouls Set To Kill For Tax Cuts

June 23, 2017

Writer Corey Pein (@coreypein) and Matt Christman (@cushbomb) of Chapo Trap House join the show today.

Reaction to the grotesque cruelty of the Senate “health care” bill. How this administration signals a retrenchment of capital.

Why we need to view the ongoing grotesque assault on the poor through a camera obscura of irony. Matt outlines the “sewer socialists” of Milwaukee in the 1910s and 20s. How class analysis has been blunted. Matt recommends the 2015 Green Room.

On the fun half – Mitch McConnell wants to kill disabled people, activists in wheelchairs get forcibly removed from McConnell’s office, Shelly Capito listens to constituent about how BHRA cuts will kill her daughter, and your calls and IMs.
