Gubernatorial candidate Eric Swalwell's plan for California

Congressman Eric Swalwell announced last month that he was joining the crowded race to replace California governor Gavin Newsom. The Dublin lawmaker enters a fluid contest with no overwhelming favorite. Recent polling shows Swalwell - along with former house member Katie Porter and Republicans Chad Bianco and Steve Hilton - in the 10-15% range, with a small fleet of other candidates struggling to break out of the single digits.Swalwell has been one of President Trump's most vocal critics in the House and served as impeachment manager during Trump's second impeachment. While that visibility likely increases his favorability with Democratic voters, it comes at a cost: he has been hit with allegations of mortgage and tax fraud by Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte. Pulte, an ally of President Trump has made similar claims against two other Trump antagonists, New York AG Letitia James and Federal Reserve Board of Governors Member Lisa Cook. Swalwell strongly disputes the allegations and filed a suit against Pulte on November 25. Looking at the polls, the allegations don't seem to have dented his star with potential Primary voters.Swalwell joined us on Thursday for a conversation about his candidacy, how he plans to address the state's affordability crisis, his experiences as a local official, navigating familial political divides, the temperature in congress, the Democratic Party brand, and much, much more.  Plus - Who had the Worst Week in California Politics?:29 View from the continent2:58 Capitol Weekly update3:55 A Conference on Housing6:26 Eric Swalwell8:57 Affordability/Cost Crisis10:30 A Republican family11:41 "No hat rule in place"12:23 January 613:53 "A day after Trump"17:28 How to rebuild the Democratic brand19:24 What is it like being in congress right now?21:19 The generational shift25:05 How did you break both thumbs?27:06 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

The Aussie market suffered its worst day in about ten weeks on Friday, sliding 1.4% and hitting a four month low as a mix of rate concerns, weak China data and a tech sell-off pushed the ASX lower for a fourth straight session. Tech led the declines with a 4.5% drop, leaving the sector down more than 9% for the week, while the major banks also weighed heavily, including CBA which shed more than 10 percent across the past five days. Energy was the only sector to turn positive late in the day as oil prices bounced after reports of a Ukrainian drone strike on a Russian export hub. China’s latest figures added to the gloom, showing further weakness across investment, property and factory activity. Company news was limited, though Megaport tumbled after a capital raise and DroneShield rebounded slightly from yesterday’s sharp fall. Looking to next week, Nvidia’s results are set to dominate global market sentiment, alongside local wage data, RBA minutes and a busy run of AGMs. The content in this podcast is prepared, approved and distributed in Australia by Commonwealth Securities Limited ABN 60 067 254 399 AFSL 238814.

Proposition 50 passed: What now?

Capitol Weekly Podcast

After a lightning speed rollout and campaign, Proposition 50 passed decisively last week, with voters approving a partisan temporary gerrymander of the state's congressional districts - and handing California Democrats a major win. The new maps will shift district lines and upend the seats of five Republican members of Congress, throwing them into distinctly less friendly territory - if Prop. 50 survives the GOP legal challenge filed the day after the election.  Our guests today are two of the state's foremost redistricting experts, Matt Rexroad and Paul Mitchell. Rexroad is a former Yolo County Supervisor and longtime GOP consultant. Mitchell, a lifelong Democrat, is the state's best-known political data expert, and led the team that created Prop. 50's maps. They name the winners and losers in this epic political battle, walk us through the various legal challenges, and look ahead at what this means for redistricting reform in the long term.Plus: our longest-ever list of Who Had the Worst Week in California Politics. They say that success has many fathers but in the case of Proposition 50 there appear to be even more losers than winners.

Governor Newsom and Democratic allies announced Thursday that they will propose a constitutional amendment — The Election Rigging Response Act — to counter Texas and other Red states' mid-decade redistricting plans. Framing the proposal as a response to GOP efforts to Gerrymander and "rig" Texas' elections next year in order to protect Republican control of congress, the proposal would replace California's current congressional district maps with new maps to be used in the 2026, 2028 and 2030 elections.  The California's Citizens Redistricting Commission would resume mapmaking duties after the 2030 census.Our guest today is California political data and redistricting whiz Paul Mitchell, who was tasked with coming up with the new maps just two weeks ago. Mitchell described the process of drawing the new maps, why the redistricting effort was necessary, and tells us which seats will see the most changes.Plus-  Who Had the Worst Week in California Politics:47 Redistricting1:58 Podcast Schedule3:31 Paul Mitchell and an intense two weeks7:14 The opposition8:16 "Can we do a 52 - zero map?"9:42 "The Commission's work is the Gold Standard"12:34 Comparison to other states' process14:55 Kevin Kiley's proposal16:44 Role of AI in redistricting20:57 There is no perfect map22:47 Which seats are in for a significant change?23:35 "Young Kim gets a great district?"26:15 "There are winners and losers"28:35 It's not about the maps - it's about the fight against Trump29:40 "It is a gross-looking district"32:08 The polling36:23 #WWCAWant to support the Capitol Weekly Podcast?

Founded in 1918, the California Manufacturers and Technology Association promotes policies designed to stimulate economic growth and create jobs. Today, CMTA represents 400 manufacturing businesses in California, which is the largest manufacturing state in the country. Heading up that operation is Lance Hastings, who began his career as a capitol staffer and has a long history with California trade associations. Hastings probably thought that the COVID pandemic would be the biggest disruptor of the state's manufacturing industry in his time, but President Trump's 'on again, off again' tariff policy may give COVID a run for its money.
