Have you heard the news? Tamika Mallory, a Women's March, Inc. Co-Chair, took a photo with Louis Farrakahn and captioned it by calling him the GOAT. She and the other co-chairs apologized and explained themselves. They did a media tour. Is it enough? And what does all of this scandalous stuff have to do with women's rights?? I go to the Women's March in Downtown LA to see what it is, and what it isn’t. Special Guests: Beth Finn @beth4phl, Co-Founder of the Women’s March on Philadelphia It’s me, Dan. Schmolitics is now taking a people-centric approach to politics. I’m taking the podcast in an exciting new direction: we’re exploring politics and issues by starting from a value. Who is Dan Gordon?

Today we’re talking about net neutrality in California Senator Scott Wiener and Senator Kevin de Leon, the authors of Senate bills 822 and 460, respectively. This story is still developing. Why did SB 822 fail to pass a committee with the original language in an 8 to 0 vote? And what does this say about the future of net neutrality, corporate influence, and California Democrats’ ability to save net neutrality. Thank You: Senator Scott Wiener, Senator Kevin de Leon, and their staffs, Assembly Member Miguel Santiago and his staff.
