Summary

John talks about North Carolina State Rep. Tricia Cotham who switched parties to become Republican and then voted for an abortion ban. He also discusses Speaker Kevin McCarthy who is still in negotiations with president Biden on the debt limit. Then he welcomes back Joe Sudbay with good news/bad news. They talk about Biden invoking the 14th Amendment to resolve the problems regarding the debt ceiling, Senator Diane Feinstein's deterioration of health, and state election results. Next, Elizabeth from D.C. calls in to tell her tale of shouting down Senator Ted Cruise during the vote of the Equal Rights Amendment. And to wrap it up he chats with Dr. Tracy Pearson about the debt ceiling crisis, the Rudy Giuliani sexual assault lawsuit, and Ron DeSantis' DEI Bill.
