TUNGKOL SA EPISODE NA ITO
Debbie Wasserman Schultz decided to run in Florida’s newly redrawn 20th District instead of her old seat—and Elijah Manley, one of the primary challengers taking her on, joins the show to make his case. We discuss why he thinks seniority isn’t the same as results, his own background growing up homeless after the 2008 financial crisis, why he’d have picked Abdul El-Sayed over Haley Stevens in the Michigan Senate race, and why he sees himself as part of the same progressive wave winning primaries in Colorado and New York. We also get into the crowded primary field working against him, and why he still thinks he has a shot at beating Wasserman Schultz on August 18.
Right Now with Perry Bacon: a twice-weekly show diving into U.S. politics, democracy, and the authoritarian threats facing America. Each episode, Perry strives to go beyond daily headlines and actually connect the dots to what’s happening in America.
