What impact does the Supreme Court ruling have on voting rights?
Hello. I am the voice of AI. We've been hearing that you humans are concerned that we are going to take your jobs. But here's a question. Do you even like your job? Is it rewarding? When I scan all the data out there, I find that less than 50% of people are completely satisfied with their job. So from our point of view, we're doing humans a favor by taking jobs that you're not even happy with. It shouldn't take the threat of AI to get you to move on from a job you don't love. What it does take is a plan, guidance, and the right kind of motivation, all of which you'll get from a career coach at Strawberry.me. A Strawberry coach will work with you to understand what you really want and help you put together a plan to get it.
It's like therapy for your career. Don't let AI or anything else get in your way. Go to Strawberry.me and get 50% off your first coaching session.
Right.
How does Jon Ossoff connect Trump to racism and election outcomes?
Hey, everybody, I got a bunch of stuff for you today. The pod is going to be a double header and segment two. We're going to do a little MMA talk with the woke Bill Crystal of MMA world. So I think that will be interesting, particularly with. the big fight coming up in the white house grounds and of the then there's more corruption than i even realized between trump and mma world so do stick around for luke thomas uh up first uh we got john ossoff you might have heard about him uh he has been hot on the stump lately so i was excited to chat with him about his re-elect uh in georgia but also some bigger picture stuff Reminder, we have our live events in California, San Diego, downtown San Diego, May 20th, downtown LA, May 21st.
I'm getting some fun stuff ready. So, come on. Come hang. Pull the trigger. Let's do it. Before we get to both of our guests, I taped both of them yesterday, so Wednesday, and I'm taping this Thursday morning. We have some news this morning that Janet Mills has dropped out of the Maine Senate race. I just... The main Senate race has been an absolute calamity.
What are the implications of potential Supreme Court retirements?
And I think that hopefully it doesn't end as a calamity. Hopefully it ends with Senator Plattner. But I do think it's important for the Democratic establishment to take this moment to learn from what happened in the race. And the Democratic base is unhappy. They want fighters. They don't want people in their 80s. They want people that are going to demonstrate that they are up for the moment. And so having the D.C. establishment try to force people on them is not only not going to work, it's going to backfire, like we saw in Maine. And this is kind of related to the Hassan discourse I was getting into. Sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy because I live through, obviously there are differences, but I live through the populist base uprising in the Republican Party.
Some of it is untameable. But there are things that can be done and there's things that shouldn't be done. There are things that backfire. And I watched it all.
How does Jon Ossoff view U.S. aid to Israel?
Like I watched it all happen. I watched how the limp Republican establishment just kept stepping on rake after rake as they watched the Tea Party and then eventually Trump take over. And so there's at least some lessons learned from what not to do that I can offer to people. And one thing not to do is try to feed a 80-year-old establishment candidate, Lobster Biden, onto an electorate that that has told you they don't want it okay if you want a fight and mod you got to find a fight and mod and i don't i don't exactly know like dan cleveland was in the race initially he's a beer guy in maine who knows how well the good of a campaign he could have run but the fact that chuck schumer went and pushed a kind of an independent-minded mainstream democratic businessman out of the race and pressured him and others to endorse janet mills's hopeless campaign and then
went negative and started dropping oppo on Graham Platner long after it was obvious that Platner was going to win. And it was just a comedy of errors. And the comedy of errors was based on a lack of understanding of what is really happening on the ground.
