Lake Fear. is Kari Really That Scary?

Is Kari Lake the new face of MAGA Republicanism? Who is she? And why are Democrats so fearful of her. Marion McKeone has been out on the campaign trail to witness what makes this candidate so similar and yet so different from those that have come before her. Many believe she will be Trump's running mate in 2024. But could the big Orange guy handle a woman like Kari or will she fall into line and "know her place"?

In second half of the discussion exclusive to Patreon supporters, we look at why the violent break in at Nancy Pelosi's residence has been viewed so lightly by some and so seriously by others, the attempt by the Supreme Court to end affirmative action and laws intended to prevent intimation at the polls as the midterms loom large. Is violence inevitable? Will the results of these elections be accepted by candidates who don't believe the current system of voting is fair?
Finally Marion recommends a brilliant new book on Sam Adams by Stacy Schiff.
(Don't forget to book your tickets for January 6th's filming of my new standup special in Dublin. Marion is going to be there. So should you.)
