Here's Episode 77 of Michigan's premier progressive podcast! Vote on this week's Left of Lansing Online Poll via Twitter or X: Does Social Media help or hurt the political process? On this week's show, Pat talks about how Alabama Republican Senator Katie Britt's ridiculous and disturbing State of the Union response showed how the White Christian Nationalist movement dominates the Republican Party. Pat compares her speech to that of Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's SOTU response in 2020, and the differences could not be starker. Even more, Britt's speech was designed to not just show how women "love kitchen," but it was designed to also stoke fear. That's a reliable aspect in the right wing playbook, and Pat explains how his time in right wing talk radio taught him how fear is vital in the right wing's propaganda strategy. Which then leads Pat to criticize Democrats in Congress for going along with Republicans to vote on banning TikTok. Democrats went along with the Republican xenophobic games to get rid of a platform that connects millions of young voters across the country. Michigan Democrats took over the state legislature, re-elected Gov. Whitmer, Attorney General Dana Nessel, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson because young voters showed-up at the polls in 2022! And we also enshrined abortion rights in our state's constitution! How did that happen? Progressive groups, Gov. Whitmer's campaign, and the state Democratic Party's social media outreach via TikTok! And now, Democrats in Congress want to ban the platform that helps their voter outreach. Make it make sense! Pat's "Last Call" focuses on one of his favorite parts of the weird, warped, right wing world: Cognitive Dissonance.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - Thousands of Christians rallied this week in front of the governor's office in Nigeria's Plateau state to demand action after more than 200 were killed in a series of Christmas massacres. The attacks, which targeted Christian villages beginning December 23 and continuing through Christmas day, left Christian communities in Nigeria's Plateau state reeling. Photos obtained by CNA after the attack showed villagers burying their slain relatives and loved ones in mass graves. According to an evangelical leader who helped to organize the rally, the attacks also left 15,000 people displaced without homes. Among the demands being made by the protestors, they asked for an “urgent humanitarian relief material response by the state and federal government” and for the arrest of the perpetrators of the Christmas massacre, which he called a “genocidal,” “terrorist” attack. The attack marks the latest instance of terrorists targeting Christian Nigerians on significant Christian feast days. Due to continued attacks, Nigeria is one of the most dangerous countries in the world to be a Christian, according to a 2023 report by the advocacy group International Christian Concern. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256487/thousands-of-christians-in-nigeria-rally-to-demand-action-after-christmas-massacres The Black Nazarene procession in the Philippines, one of the largest religious devotions in the world, returned this year to its traditional size for the first time since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, attracting millions of devotees. The procession, known locally as “Traslacion,” sees devotees carry across Manila a replica of a famous life-size statue of Jesus carrying a black wooden cross. Taking place each year in January, this year's event marked a return to the traditional procession after three years of drastic downsizing due to the threat of COVID-19. In 2020, 2021, and 2022 the procession was essentially canceled entirely. In 2023, an estimated 103,277 faithful participated, far fewer than in past years. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256485/black-nazarene-procession-in-the-philippines-draws-millions-after-returning-from-covid The attorney general of Michigan on Monday released the second of seven expected reports of alleged clergy abuse in the state, part of a multiyear investigation into abuse allegations — many of them decades old — against Church officials there. Attorney General Dana Nessel's office announced the release of the report on the office's website. The office said the report involves “allegations of abuse that took place in the Diocese of Gaylord.” The Michigan attorney general is conducting investigations of abuse allegations in each of the seven Catholic dioceses in the state. In a press conference on Monday following the report's release, Gaylord Bishop Jeffrey Walsh said there is no priest or deacon in active public ministry in the Diocese of Gaylord who has a substantiated allegation of sexual abuse or misconduct against a minor. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/256484/michigan-attorney-general-releases-second-report-of-clergy-abuse-in-state Today, the Church celebrates Saint Gregory of Nyssa. In 379 he assisted at the Council of Antioch, which had been summoned because of the Meletian schism. He also asserted the faith of Nicaea, and tried to put an end to Arianism and Pneumatism in the East. It is very probable that Gregory was present at another council, the Council of Constantinople in 383. Between 385 and 386 he disappears from history, but not without leaving a significant number of theological writings. He made significant contributions to the doctrine of the Trinity and the Nicene Creed. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/saint/st-gregory-of-nyssa-112

Hour 3 - Good Thursday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: The Georgia indictment of President Donald Trump and 18 lawyers, aides, and supporters reflects the unfortunate totalitarian tradition of prosecuting leaders and members of the political opposition in mass trials in which defendants have few rights. Nearly three years after the 2020 presidential election, Americans are still learning facts about possible nationwide voter fraud. In Michigan, Attorney General Dana Nessel's office has now confirmed that there was a state investigation into thousands of suspected fraudulent voter registrations, which was referred to the FBI. Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) faced backlash this week from across the spectrum on the political Right after criticizing a woman's social media post in which she professed her reliance on her Christian faith. A Texas woman is behind bars after allegedly threatening to kill U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan – the federal judge overseeing Special Counsel Jack Smith's 2020 election conspiracy case against former President Donald Trump – and U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee.
We're on indictment watch again this week. By the time you are listening to us, Donald Trump could be completing his 2023 "indictment hat trick", this time for his leadership of efforts to steal the 2020 election. In addition to his two already issued criminal indictments, he's also facing a court date in the continuation of his losing civil battle with rape victim E. Jean Carroll … and he might get the indictment grand slam as Georgia prepares to step in.

Roe v. Wade — the Supreme Court Decision protecting reproductive rights in America for half a century — was dashed last week. Abdul sits down with Prof. Kate Shaw, co-host of Strict Scrutiny to answer your questions about the ruling and its implications for reproductive health. Then he interviews Attorney General Dana Nessel of Michigan — a state with a draconian abortion ban on the books — about how she and her colleagues are working to protect reproductive rights in that state.
