#podcast #politics #ElissaSlotkin #Michigan #WorkingClass #FossilFuels #Environment #Economy #California #Emissions #Democrats #MAGA #Trump #GovernmentCorruption #LeftOfLansing Here's the Left of Lansing "Friday Short" for May 23, 2025. It's another edition of, "Michigan Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin Goes Full MAGA!" This week, Slotkin was the ONLY Democrat in the U.S. Senate to vote in favor of ripping-away California's tailpipe emissions standards for cars and trucks--a standard that 17 other states adopted. Slotkin claims to be protecting the interests of Michigan since we're the auto capital of the world. Yet, with climate change hurting her state in a number of ways, wouldn't moving away from the fossil fuels of the 20th Century ensure our economic & environmental survival in the 21st Century? Yet, Slotkin joined MAGA Republicans in gutting this EPA waiver to California that was issued during the Biden Administration. Who's side is Slotkin on? It's not working class Michiganders.  Please, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can! leftoflansing@gmail.com Left of Lansing is now on YouTube as well! leftoflansing.com NOTES: "U.S. Senate vote to nix California tailpipe emissions standard blocks 17 other states."

When Elissa Slotkin narrowly won her Senate seat in Michigan last fall, she was one of only four Democratic senators to claim victory in a state that voted for Donald Trump. It made other Democrats take note: since then, the Party has turned to her as someone who can bridge the red state–blue state divide. In March, Slotkin delivered the Democrats' rebuttal to Trump's speech before Congress, and she's been making headlines for criticizing her own party's attempts to rein in the President and the Republican Party. She thinks Democrats need to start projecting “alpha energy,” that identity politics “needs to go the way of the dodo,” and that Democrats should drop the word “oligarchy” from their vocabulary entirely. Slotkin prides herself on her bipartisanship, and she believes that Democrats must use old-school collegial collaboration in Congress. And, as different Democratic leaders have appeared on The New Yorker Radio Hour in the past few months, discussing what the next four years might have in store, Slotkin tells David Remnick about a different path forward.

Last week, Bill Maher lauded Michigan Democratic U.S. Senator Elissa Slotkin on his HBO show because of her criticism of how her party appears "weak and woke" by the electorate. But other than the fact that Slotkin swears and cusses at times, what exactly is she pushing on a policy front that helps working class Michiganders and Americans? How will her "moderation" help bring people towards Democrats when she's currently supporting a cryptocurrency bill that Republicans, including President Trump, are pushing to please the Big Tech donor base?

Trump's tariffs are hurting the working class, but he and his regime are doubling-down. Then, Pat breaks-down Michigan Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin's new "war plans" for Democrats, and where she says Democrats should stop saying "oligarchy" when attacking Trump.

Find the threats inside America   Righteous wave of justice.     Democrats: Waking Up at Last? In the aftermath of the 2024 election, there's a glimmer of hope that Democrats are finally smelling the coffee. Representative Elissa Slotkin, in a rare moment of clarity, admitted:"Identity politics needs to end… people don't want to be told who they are based on their gender, ethnicity, or orientation."   https://www.dailywire.com/news/dem-elissa-slotkin-tells-her-party-identity-politics-needs-to-end Democrat Senator-elect Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) told her party that “identity politics” needs to end if they want to have a chance to win back voters after losing the White House in 2024 to President-elect Donald Trump. During a Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee briefing with Dem candidates who won their election, the soon-to-be senator from Michigan didn't mince words when talking about why the party lost the White House. “I personally think that identity politics needs to go the way of the dodo,” Slotkin said, per David Weigel in a post on X. She also said that the party should take language “not from the faculty lounge, but the assembly line.”  [SEGMENT 2-2] Common Sense Governing 2 [X] SB – Liberal Democrat realizes that only Republicans help her The comments were similar to ones the incoming senator made during her appearance on MSNBC when asked about the party's recent defeat. “Any party — and I can only represent the Democratic Party — needs to focus on the things that keep people up at night. That's their pocketbooks and their kids,” Slotkin said. “There are a lot of issues out there. But you've got to start with what keeps people awake, and that is kitchen-table issues, economics.” “We gotta stay away … we don't need to obsess about identity politics,” she added. “And by the way, this last election demonstrated very clearly that they don't stand up.”   But Slotkin didn't always feel this way…   Despite Slotkin's comments about “identity politics,” she voted multiple times against keeping men out of women's restrooms and locker rooms, the Detroit News noted. In May 2019, during her first term in Congress, Slotkin voted for the Equality Act, which would, among other things, “prohibits an individual from being denied access to a shared facility, including a restroom, a locker room, and a dressing room, that is in accordance with the individual's gender identity.” It was stopped by Republicans in the Senate, then passed again in 2021, with Slotkin voting for it, the outlet noted. In April 2023, Slotkin also voted against the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, which “prohibits school athletic programs from allowing individuals whose biological sex at birth was male to participate in programs that are for women or girls.” Slotkin realizes now that Americans aren't interested in endless lectures about pronouns. Nor do we want to be indoctrinated on the 57 varieties of gender. We're tired of being told we're bad people if we question the latest woke fad. What do they want? A return to normalcy. A focus on issues that matter—like jobs, safety, and education—not on whether today's buzzword is “Latinx” or “cisgender.” Democrats built a house of cards on identity politics, and MAGA came in with a leaf blower. For years, Leftists overplayed their hand, weaponizing labels and promoting division under the guise of inclusion. Now, even their own party members are admitting that the strategy has run its course. Still there remain the old guard. [X] SB – WaPo's Jen Rubin Pithy Republicans want to kill your kids. Oppose vaccinations. Breakthrough medical research   The real lesson of 2024? Americans are fed up. They don't want bureaucrats with rainbow lanyards; they want a government that works. And if Democrats can't figure that out, they'll keep losing. But hey, at least they'll have their pronouns.        [SEGMENT 2-3] The “Resist” movement v107   Since the re-election of Donald Trump, the Left have soul-searched. But not how most people perform the introspection. The Left aren't necessarily looking for reasons why their message didn't resonate with the majority of the populace, and restore sanity to the country Instead, they plot chaos. In what many consider open treason, many on the Left have declared that they will disobey the rule of law and thwart newly re-elected President Trump in his efforts to fix problems created by Joe Biden and others. Finally, sane policy coming from our government. Policies that protect citizens, while allowing illegals to enter America the right way. Despite Trump's clearly legal policy directives, governors and some mayors have vowed not to honor the law. Actually, I'm glad they are fighting back. Because this fight is long overdue, and it's one they will not win. Overwhelmingly Americans want illegal immigration addressed. And President Trump has the wind in his sails for multiple reasons, the first already given. But aside from overwhelming support from the public, Trump knows how to up the ante, and he's vowed to stop the cartels. And this is no idle threat, as Trump already announced that he will use Tier 1 operators, i.e. Delta Force, and other spec ops. No longer will the NSA and CIA be deployed to spy on American citizens, but instead be used to do the job it was intended to do: keep Americans safe from the real bad guys. This will backfire for the “resistance”. As Trump racks up victories, those fighting hi will lose even more face…             [SEGMENT 2-4] Media triage   [X] SB – Nikki Haley on Charlamagne re: Morning Joe I'd hate to be the media now, and headed into the future. This is one of the reasons I always tell people, I'm not media, I'm OPINION. I don't care what happens in the news, since I will always have an opinion. AI can't reproduce MY SPECIFIC opinion. Since 2016, the media has rightfully been under fire. Trump may not have invented the term “fake news”, but he certainly made it mainstream and believable. I remember the assault on Trump by the media, once he branded them. They hope they could get the term to go away. But a full 8 years later, we use the term more now than we did in the past. Trump used the Left's own tactics against them, as he was relentless in calling the media “fakes”. And they happily participated by lying unapologetically.. MSNBC's Morning Joe show brought in a panel of media types to discuss their demise.   [X] SB – MSNBC Morning Joe panel laments their loss of audience 1 in 5 adults get their news from social media.   They recognize that they are Model Ts in a Tesla world. Dinosaurs waiting on the next ELE meteor to hit Earth. When asked what the solution is, most of the panelists offered none. Writer for the Miami Herald (?), Eugene Robinson suggested that they meet the audience “on their turf”. He's referring to X, Instagram, and others. Ironically, former Twitter, X is dominating in the news business. I predicted this would happen, as Musk got his sea legs in media. As Musk grows, the lamestream fake news media takes no notes. The reason for the success of X is simple: they allow all points of view. But X has on other advantage over traditional media: it allows for millions of voices. Sure, one can follow the “influencers”. But there are many people with small followings who say the most insightful things. Once you find that person, you bookmark them. Now you have added another small voice to your information-gathering network. The problem with traditional media is the egos of the hosts. Almost all are high-paid regurgitators of the narrative set by somebody else. Rarely do they present anything fresh, lest they run the risk of being fired. Their opinions are one and the same. X differs dramatically. Follow an X thread and you will witness creativity beyond belief. Moreover, you will see trends, and a host of other things that help you build your worldview. Traditional media can't respond quickly enough. And it hasn't the sense to deliver something so awesome that people will come even if they know the actual story.   NBA ratings continue to tank.

James Blair is with me today to discuss all things battleground states. Early voting from Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina are looking very good for President Trump. James is bullish on these states and believes the data supports a victory at hand. The turnout in Nevada has been phenomenal and the "blue wall" has all but been torn down. As Baldwin and Slotkin both run pro-Trump advertisements, the message is the know they're losing. In Michigan, Trump has been endorsed by the Muslim community, as well as auto workers and black voters favoring Trump. Brett Favre is set to join Trump in Wisconsin this week and Pennsylvania is ripe for the taking. As the data from these states looks so promising, there are some tier-two states in play as well. James gives us the low down on New Hampshire, Minnesota, Virginia and New Mexico. Trump is set to be in Albuquerque this Thursday and James thinks some of these tier-two states are certainly in play!

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- While speaking with Politico, Camila Thorndike—Harris Campaign's Climate Engagement Director—revealed that Kamala Harris does not support the expansion of land leases for fracking, and the subsequent expansion of domestic energy production. Earlier in the campaign, Harris had emphasized the expansion of fracking leases via the Inflation Reduction Act, alluding to the idea that it would be a policy she supported moving forward. Notably, while running for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination in 2019, Harris had called for an outright ban on fracking. Thorndike's revelation now marks the third alteration of Harris's position on fracking. Can Pennsylvanians believe anything she is saying on this subject? 3:25pm- While speaking at a Latino Roundtable in Miami, Florida, Donald Trump couldn't believe that his political rival Kamala Harris was taking the day off from the campaign trail despite the presidential election being just two-weeks away. He hilariously stated: “I can't get over it…She's lazy as hell.” 3:40pm- Democrats in Swing States Are Now Running Away From Harris. In a new report from Alexander Bolton of The Hill writes: “Democrats running for the Senate in ‘blue wall' states that will be critical to determining the outcome of the 2024 election are running away from Vice President Harris, signaling that they are hoping to win over some of former President Trump's voters to keep their seats. And Democratic candidates in those states have been careful about criticizing Trump during the high-stakes debates. They have focused on policy and their own records without taking many—or any—shots against the Republican nominee.” Bolton notes that Democrats Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA), Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), and Senate Candidate Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) are distancing themselves from Harris. He writes that Slotkin “has sounded like a Republican at times, talking about her home on a ‘dirt road' where no electric vehicle would dare go. She has flashed Trumpian rhetoric about how Japan and South Korea ‘ate our lunch' in the 1980s by being a step ahead of U.S. automakers in promoting fuel-efficient vehicles.” You can read the full article here: https://thehill.com/homenews/4945815-democratic-candidates-avoid-harris-blue-wall/ 3:55pm- Rich reads hate mail from listeners—and Matt wonders why he was attacked too!

Michigan TV stations are raking in the cash with campaign spending well over $200-million, fueled by close races for President, U.S. Senate and congressional districts and control of the state legislature. The Harris campaign reports it has raised a staggering $1-billion in 7 weeks. Michigan is also getting massive personal attention from the national campaigns, with candidates and surrogates making campaign visits on an almost daily basis. Republicans are hoping concerns over electric vehicles will put them over the top in Michigan, with both JD Vance and Mike Rogers calling for reneging on a federal promise of $500-million for upgrading Lansing's General Motors downtown assembly plant. Rogers is battling a new carpetbagger charge with the revelation that the house he claims as his home doesn't even have an occupancy permit And in the Bizarro World that is Donald Trump, the week's four strangest developments: The Kremlin confirms Trump sent COVID test equipment for Putin's personal use even as Americans were unable to get tested Republican governors and U.S. Senators praise the federal response to the two hurricanes in direct contradiction of Trump's claims; President Biden calls Trump a liar It turns out Trump's $60 “God Bless the USA” Bibles are being printed in China And when Trump said on a podcast that he's a very truthful person, the podcast host breaks out in laughter Slotkin, Rogers spar in Michigan U.S. Senate debate.

Today, they discuss Kamala Harris confirming she and Joe Biden had no major policy differences, Harris getting some tough questions frfrom "60 Minutes", and Republicans gaining ground in three critical Midwest Senate races. Oh, and of course Jim has a couple of thoughts about the New York Jets firing their head coach.First, they react to Kamala Harris telling the ladies on "The View" that "there's not a thing that comes to mind" when asked whether there was anything she would have done differently than President Biden. She also says she was a part of every major decision Biden made. Jim says this completely ties her to Biden's unpopular record and he is stunned she didn't come up with a single difference.Next, they applaud Bill Whitaker of "60 Minutes" for asking Kamala Harris tough questions and good follow-up questions, especially on the Biden administration's handling of the border crisis. Jim and Greg also critique Harris's word salad responses, as she tried to deflect blame onto Republicans while struggling to defend the administration's failures on immigration.Finally, Jim and Greg discuss the momentum shift in three key Senate races. With only four weeks left in the campaign, Republicans are gaining ground in Wisconsin, Ohio, and Michigan. Wisconsin is now considered a toss-up, Ohio polling shows a dead heat, and Michigan is within the margin of error, signaling that the GOP could make critical gains in these battleground states.Please visit our great sponsors:BetterHelphttps://betterhelp.com/3MLVisit the 3ML website for 10% of your first month.  Zbioticshttps://zbiotics.com/3MLUse code 3ML at checkout to save 15% off your first order.

Richard Slotkin has written some of the more important books explaining the way Americans have created myths to justify slavery, repression, and empire, including "Regeneration Through Violence," "The Fatal Environment," and "Gunfighter Nation." His new book, "A Great Disorder," summarizes his previous ideas and take us to the present, with significant analyses of American from Reagan to the present, with ideas about the way Reagan and Bush in particular brought back the idea of the frontier and the cowboy to exploit and protect it. In our latest episode, we discussed with him the Obama years, his failure to tell a compelling story, and the culture wars and intensification of gun culture in response. And we spend a lot of time discussing Trump's use of old myths about violence and white supremacy to create a Confederate restoration project.

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Richard Slotkin, cultural critic and historian, professor of English and American Studies at Wesleyan University, to discuss his recent book A Great Disorder: National Myth and the Battle for America.  First, they run through updates on day one of the DNC, Harris' candidacy, Donald Trump's ongoing meltdown, Iran-Israel conflict, anti-trust, labor action, SCOTUS' stance on trans rights, COVID infection rates, and pro-Palestine protest, before diving into the role Palestinian and pro-Palestinian perspectives will play at the DNC. Professor Richard Slotkin then joins, diving right into the concept of the “national myth” as the use of history and narratives of the past to rationalize the present and its ongoing crises. Expanding on this, Professor Slotkin walks through the role of social and economic insecurity in spurring the need to make sense of a moment, before stepping back to touch on how malleable these mythologies can be, with the same stories often taking on multiple perspectives that can be used and presented differently to affirm various, frequently conflicting, contemporary ideologies, parsing through the various myths of the American Revolution, Civil War, and the “Good War: (WWII), and how they have been employed throughout history. After expanding on the utility of these mythologies, particularly within the context of the US economic and legal systems, Professor Slotkin brings Sam and Emma into the modern era, outlining the grounding mythologies of the MAGA movement in the Lost Cause and the Second Amendment, and how Democrats can (and might be) learning how to use these mythologies to their benefit as Conservatives do. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch JD Vance call out the problem of “Ethnic Enclaves,” unpack profits, price gouging, and inflation, and dive deep into Walz's impressive early performances at Harris' VP pick, and what he can tell us about the potentials for Harris' candidacy. Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh meltdown over Tim Walz's gastronomical preferences, plus, your IMs!

Clay interviews the eminent historian Richard Slotkin about America as it approaches its 250th birthday. Richard Slotkin is an emeritus professor of history at Wesleyan University in Connecticut. He is the author of many books, including two groundbreaking studies of violence on the American frontier. His latest book, A Great Disorder: National Myth and the Battle for America, attempts to place the current crisis in the basic narratives of American history: the myth of the Founders, frontier myths, the myths surrounding the Civil War and World War II; and the myth of American exceptionalism. As we approach our 250th birthday, can America find a way to craft a new consensus narrative of who we are and where we are headed? Or are we doomed to disintegrate into two or more Americas that see the other side as evil or un-American?
