Summary
It's News Day Tuesday on The Majority Report
On today's Program:
It's Primary Day in Utah, Maryland, New York and runoffs in South Carolina.
If you are available to phone bank for the DSA slate in New York today from 4pm EST until the polls close you can find the information here.
Susan Collins says that she does not regret casting the deciding vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Collins went on to say that Kavanaugh was not the deciding vote in the 6-3 ruling to overturn Roe V. Wade. The problem with that is that the vote was not 6-3, it was 5-4 and Kavanaugh was in fact the deciding vote to overturn Roe v. Wade. Collins' opponent Graham Platner says that the Senator's comments are either a lie or ignorance - both of which are disqualifying.
Rick Perlstein, historian and author, joins to discuss his piece published on his Substack on Alan Greenspan: "Speak Ill of the Dead - Early and Often, Please". For more from Rick check out his tetralogy on the modern conservative movement.
In the Fun Half:
Fox News is very scared of the Democratic Socialists of America momentum heading into this year's midterms.
Former Andrew Cuomo chief of staff, Melissa Derosa calls the DSA parasites that feed off of the democratic party with the intentions of killing it.
Candidate for New York's 13th congressional district, Darializa Avila Chevelier is harassed in the streets by two psychos calling her a "Jew hater".
Donald Trump has tasked the national guard with monitoring for people dipping their fingers in the DC reflecting pool. Multiple have been detained for simply touching the reflecting pool.
The president is speculated to have received an experimental GLP-1.
Department of Energy secretary Chris Wright fumbles his prepared remarks, leading to Donald Trump to interrupt him with "nobody cares".
Tucker Carlson announces that he has left the republican party, igniting rumors that he is running for president as an independent.
All that and more.
