Podcasts about Democratic Party

A Michigan Democratic Senate primary becomes the starting point for a broader conversation about the ideological direction of the Democratic Party and whether activist movements on the left are reshaping its future. In the aftermath of primary results, Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson examine what they see as growing influence from democratic socialist and progressive candidates in key races around the country. The discussion expands beyond Michigan to races in New York, Colorado, and Wisconsin, where the hosts argue that emerging political figures and grassroots movements are challenging traditional Democratic Party leadership. They also debate how social media, younger voters, and changing political coalitions are affecting both major parties. In this episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson discuss the Michigan Senate primary featuring Abdul El-Sayed and Haley Stevens, analyze the rise of democratic socialist candidates in several states, react to comments from Van Jones about political change inside the Democratic Party, examine proposals for publicly supported grocery stores in New York City, and debate what these developments could mean for future elections and the broader American political landscape.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Abdul El-Sayed, who is running for the Democratic nomination for Senate from Michigan, is a very sick person, full of hate. He is on record supporting driver's licenses for illegals, opposing cooperation with ICE, and says America was founded on slavery. Slavery actually existed all over the world when America was founded: Black tribes sold other Africans to Europeans. Slavery exists today in Africa - where Islamists kill and capture Christians in Nigeria -- and in the Middle East. Women are treated horribly in the Middle East, North Africa and Pakistan -- all Islamic areas. America fought a Civil War and amended our Constitution to rid this country of slavery. Nirvana has never existed anywhere, but the America of today is as close as it has ever come. Meanwhile, issues like universal healthcare are falsely cast as civil rights to advance a Marxist agenda that expands “democracy” and “rights” while threatening programs like Medicare and opposing enforcement against illegal immigration; supporting candidates like Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan would harm both the state and the country. Also, Sen Chris Van Hollen is a radical nut job, Jew hater, and Israel hater. Van Hollen defends Democrats against communist labels by citing Republican attacks on FDR over Social Security. What did FDR do? FDR created internment camps of 120,000 Japanese Americans, refusing to sign a bipartisan anti-lynching bill to protect Southern votes, imposing Jewish immigration quotas during the Holocaust, and enacting socialist policies including industrial trusts and price/wage controls that prolonged the Depression, arguing socialism redistributes rather than creates wealth. Later, Wisconsin Governor candidate Francesca Hong views Thanksgiving as racist and posted in 2021 that Americans should cancel it. This is the problem with insufficiently patriotic immigrants welcomed into the Democratic Party's big tent. In breaking news, authorities arrested a man Sunday at President Trump's Los Angeles-area golf course after he appeared to monitor security preparations two days ahead of a fundraiser there. The man, who was taking photos and video, carried a 16-round magazine with ammunition in his pocket; a loaded pistol was recovered from his car. He was charged with allegedly carrying a concealed firearm and possessing prohibited ammunition. The arrest was announced by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department as Trump prepared to arrive for a Republican National Committee fundraising dinner at the Trump National Golf Course in Rancho Palos Verdes.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the 2026 midterms kicked into high gear Tuesday as voters headed to the polls across five states, with Michigan's marquee Democratic Senate primary leading a slate of closely watched contests. The contest between Rep. Haley Stevens and former public health official Abdul El-Sayed has become the marquee race of the night, drawing millions of dollars in outside spending and attention from top Democratic figures. The winner will face Republican Mike Rogers in November in one of the country's most competitive Senate races and a contest that could help determine control of the chamber.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton talk about the Democratic Senate contest featuring Abdul El-Sayed and examining how the outcome could provide insight into the national appeal of progressive and socialist candidates beyond deeply blue cities such as New York and Los Angeles. They argue that Michigan and Wisconsin serve as political testing grounds for whether increasingly far-left Democratic candidates can succeed in competitive swing states. They also talk about how the Democratic Party is moving further toward socialist and identity-based politics. Clay and Buck analyzed several emerging Democratic candidates, including Michigan Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed and Wisconsin gubernatorial hopeful Francesca Hong, framing both as representative of the party’s progressive wing. They debated whether these candidates would strengthen Republican chances in key battleground states or whether they reflect a broader ideological shift within the Democratic electorate. The conversation repeatedly returned to the question of whether ideas that resonate in major urban centers can translate into statewide success in politically divided states. Clay and Buck discussed the ongoing controversy surrounding the WNBA, Sophie Cunningham, and transgender participation policies in women’s sports. Clay discussed growing attention surrounding his satirical proposal to launch the fictional “Nashville Balls” WNBA franchise, a team composed entirely of biological males identifying as women. The concept was referenced by multiple commentators and media personalities, including Megyn Kelly and others, who argued that the hypothetical scenario highlights concerns about fairness and competitive balance in women’s athletics. Clay and Buck described the proposal as a form of political and cultural satire designed to underscore what they view as contradictions in current sports policies. An extended interview featuring Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who discussed his Senate campaign, the state of the race, and his Democratic opponent, Texas State Representative James Talarico. Paxton addressed polling that suggests a competitive contest, argued that many Texans are still unfamiliar with Talarico’s policy positions, and contended that Democratic fundraising networks and out-of-state donors are heavily investing in the race in hopes of flipping a traditionally Republican Senate seat. Clay and Buck described what they called “race communism” as a driving force behind many modern progressive policy proposals. Throughout the hour, Clay and Buck discussed concepts such as systemic racism, criminal justice disparities, racial identity, and social justice activism, arguing that contemporary progressives increasingly analyze virtually every policy issue through race-based frameworks. Francesca Hong’s references to “proximity to whiteness” and racial identity politics received particular attention, with the hosts debating how those ideas resonate with voters in political battleground states such as Wisconsin.

As California continues to struggle with issues like homelessness, high-speed rail, and crippling taxes, it's hard not to wonder what the future holds for the Golden State. In this episode, we're joined by Ramin Ekhtair, host of Ramin Real Talk on YouTube, as he shares his thoughts on the state's decline and what needs to be done to turn things around. Ramin discusses how California's policies have led to a decline in population, with many young people leaving the state in search of better opportunities. He also touches on the issue of NGOs and how they're bankrupting the state while making problems worse.

The 2026 midterm elections are heating up, and this week's primaries are shaping up to be a wild ride. On this episode, we dive into the latest developments in the Democratic Party's shift towards socialism, and how it's affecting the country. From government-run grocery stores to the rise of socialist candidates, we're exploring the implications of this trend and what it means for the future of American politics. The Democratic Party's shift towards socialism is a topic of much debate, with some arguing that it's a necessary response to the failures of the current system, while others see it as a threat to American values and freedoms. We're discussing the latest news and developments in this area, including the rise of socialist candidates like Abdul al-Sayed in Michigan and Zara Mumdani in New York City. These candidates are pushing for radical policies like government-run grocery stores and the abolition of the electoral college, and it's sparking a heated debate about the future of the Democratic Party. We're also talking to Senator Rick Scott about the latest developments in the Senate, including the Save America Act and the importance of securing our elections. With the midterms just around the corner, it's a critical time for lawmakers to get to work and address the pressing issues facing the country. But with the Democrats' shift towards socialism, it's unclear whether they'll be able to put aside their differences and work towards a common goal.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Glenn discusses the atrocious shooting that occurred at an In-N-Out restaurant in Twin Falls, Idaho, that left several people dead and multiple wounded in critical condition. While the media is focused on the perpetrator, who died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Glenn focuses on the heroism of a bystander who distracted the gunman from shooting more innocent people. Glenn reacts to Bill Maher's latest takedown of the socialist takeover of the Democratic Party, which left Maher's audience shocked when Maher read the actual statements of the Democratic Socialists of America. Glenn exposes the Wisconsin Democratic gubernatorial race normalizing radical “sewer socialist” cost-of-living talk with radical allies and an extreme platform that goes far beyond practical governance.

An incumbent mayor of Los Angeles normally faces smooth sailing for reëlection, but for the Democrat Karen Bass her term has been marked by criticism of her handling of last year's devastating wildfires and the city's ongoing homelessness crisis. The city-council member Nithya Raman was a former ally of Bass who now faces her in a November runoff election. Raman is aligned with the Democratic Socialists of America, and she talks with David Remnick about her frustration with Democratic leadership, which she says is  lacking “urgency around the issues that I felt mattered most, and, in some ways, a moving away from the direction that I felt L.A. needed to be moving.” Further listening: “Mayor Karen Bass on Marines in Los Angeles,” an episode of The New Yorker Radio Hour   New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

Michigan's Senate seat is a must-win for Democrats hoping to take control of the Senate in 2026. The midterms are reflecting a surge of energy behind left-leaning Democratic candidates—sometimes known as the Mamdani effect—challenging their party's establishment and its tarnished image. Abdul El-Sayed, a former health official, firmly supports Medicare for All and the abolition of ICE. He's ahead of his moderate Democratic rival, Haley Stevens, in most polls. But that has some Democrats worried that El-Sayed is too radical to win the general election in a state that narrowly voted for Trump in 2024. El-Sayed talks with David Remnick about being “radicalized in medical school,” the trap of expressing righteous anger as an Arab candidate, how Robert F. Kennedy's anti-science views have taken such a hold on the public, and why AIPAC and other lobbying groups have spent sixty million dollars opposing him in this election.   Further reading and listening:  “Michigan Is the Next Big Test for the Democratic Party,” by Jason Zengerle “Can the Democrats Get It Together?,” by Amy Davidson Sorkin “Governor Gretchen Whitmer on COVID-19, Trump, and the Accusations Against Joe Biden,” an episode of The New Yorker Radio Hour The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.
