It’s Monday in America, time for the World’s Greatest Political Podcast ™ – The LEFT Show. This week, Jeff has JC, and Clarity on to talk about Trump’s Thanksgiving proclamations, Betsy DeVos’s battle against decency, The GOP War on (different) Americans, and Iran’s War on The West. A lot of war this week, it seems. Taylor Swift, though, is a bright ray of SUNSHINE and that’s good.

Jason is back with the second in a new series of The Sidetrack focused on swing states. This week: Michigan. Trump didn’t so much win MI as Clinton lost it by assuming it was in the bag. A “bipartisan” making-deals-with-House-Dems Trump could exploit the hell out of the state’s politics and win. Ick.
