Interview with Author and Refugee Policy Expert Jim Simpson; Leading Ladies Take Up Cruz/Carly Ticket

Listen to the second hour of our May 1st show, here.  Links to articles reviewed in preparation for the May 1st show, here.

Leading ladies Lorie Medina and Mari Sullivan join Debbie for the second hour roundtable.

The word ‘trumpery’ existed long before 2016–and its definition is stunningly ironic…

The Rapid Fire question of the week:  Should Ted Cruz just get out of the race now?

Lorie says no–and wonders whether there’s a lesson from Jordan Spieth and the Masters…the tournament isn’t over until it’s over–and neither is the campaign.

Mari says no, but thinks an awful lot is riding on Indiana’s primary results.

And Debbie thinks Carly Fiorina’s VP nomination is a factor…

Author and refugee expert Jim Simpson called in to talk about what’s really going on in the multiple refugee resettlement programs.  This is out of control, and clearly destabilizing the country on many levels.  High school testing in 80 languages?

A shoutout to listeners in Columbus, Georgia–Lorie’s husband has deep ties to Ft. Benning!

And now to the ‘woman’s card’…Hillary is literally handing out a woman’s card for her supporters. But the leading ladies are thrilled with Carly Fiorina’s appointment as Cruz’ VP nominee.

Carly’s take on Mike Tyson’s endorsement of Trump is an example of her strength on the ticket.

Trends in media are being upset in this election–because they all seem to have taken a side, so much so that there’s no way to trust the integrity of the reporting.  So new news sites are gaining traction, and old stand-bys–even Fox News–are losing market share.

Bernie Sanders gets taken out by his old neighborhood in Brooklyn.  The Russian immigrants who live there aren’t so excited by socialism–because they know exactly what it feels like to live under it.

Restoring, reclaiming and protecting freedom in America is what this show is all about!!
