Rick Sanchez welcomes Dr. Karina Moreno (PHD) professor of Urban Policy and Planning to further discuss the ever-evolving scandal in LA involving former City Council President Nury Martinez. Sanchez and Moreno agree that while her choice of words was offensive and disrespectful, we must remember that this conversation was secretly recorded and that most people speak negatively about others from time to time when they think no one is listening. While they are both very surprised that this became a national story, Sanchez concludes that when LA's woke democratic community does something like this, it shows how little they know us. They should have let this situation play itself out and let the public vote her out of office instead of forcing her to resign. RSN_S1_E0054 Learn more about your ad choices.

After tons of anger and outcry from the entire city of Los Angeles, former City Council President Nury Martinez has resigned her city council seat. This comes after leaked audio surfaced in which you can hear Martinez and two other councilmembers make crude and racist remarks. The scandal has outraged residents who shut down council meetings demanding more resignations. In the wake of the leaked audio, the CA attorney general has also said they will investigate the L.A. redistricting process and then there is the mystery yet to be solved of who recorded and leaked the audio. Gustavo Arellano, columnist at the LA Times, joins us for how it's all playing out. Next, the inflation rate cooled slightly to 8.2% but is still battering Americans with record high prices. 18 months after President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan, the consensus is that it helped the economy recover quickly from the pandemic lows, but also contributed to the inflation we face today. On the high end, estimates say that about half, 4% of current inflation can be attributed to the rescue plan. High product demand and other factors also contributed, but within days of signing the plan, some prices began to rise. David Lynch, global economics reporter at the Washington Post, joins us for what to know.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Abortion has been the number one topic for campaign ads this year, so we're talking with veteran ad maker https://twitter.com/kgslive (Kelly Grace Gibson), the founder of the women-led https://www.strongerthancomms.com/ (Stronger Than Comms), about how Democrats are pressing their advantage on this week's edition of The Downballot.

Leaked audio has led to a scandal at the Los Angeles City Council. City Council President Nury Martinez, Councilmembers Kevin de Leon and Gill Cedillo, and LA County Federation of Labor President Ron Herrera were all caught in a conversation from last year where they were talking about redistricting and Latino political power and how they could sway it their way, but the conversation quickly devolved into racist remarks made by Martinez about the Black son of one of their fellow councilmembers saying he seemed like a “little monkey.” Martinez even disparaged other Latino groups. Gustavo Arellano, columnist for the LA Times, joins us for all the fallout, Martinez has resigned from her position, but not from the city council. Next, the holiday travel season will be upon us soon and you're already hearing about how you should start planning and buying those flights now as they are expected to get more expensive.

Dawn Gilbertson, travel columnist for the WSJ, joins us for what to watch out for.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
