The mainstream media are finally catching on to the rampant corruption throughout the Trump administration: grifts and gifts that are putting untold billions into Donald Trump’s pocket, much of it from foreign sources. It’s a worldwide, nakedly corrupt bribery scandal with governments, major corporations, law firms, television networks, and billionaires worldwide competing to see who can give Trump the largest bribes.
In Michigan Democrats are focusing on proposed Republican cuts to Medicaid, as new polling shows statewide voter rejection of any cuts to the healthcare program, and a new state reports projects 700-thousand Michiganders losing healthcare coverage as a result of Republican efforts to use Medicaid cuts to partially fund 4.5-billion-dollars in tax cuts for major corporations and the oligarchs. On the state political front: with Haley Stevens running for U.S. Senate a lot of Democrats are looking to be their party’s nominee. We’ll talk new vs legacy media, Michigan politics, and more with longtime political analyst, journalist, and new-media innovator Susan Demas.
Susan is a 24-year journalism veteran and one of the state’s foremost experts on Michigan politics, appearing on C-SPAN, MSNBC, CNN, NPR and WKAR-TV’s “Off the Record.” For nearly five years, Susan was the Editor and Publisher of Inside Michigan Politics, the most-cited political newsletter in the state. She also founded the online news publication Michigan Advance. Susan’s award-winning political analysis has run in more than 100 national, international and regional media outlets, including the Guardian U.K., NBC News, the New York Times, the Detroit News and MLive.
Susan is the newly minted executive editor of “Lincoln Square Media”, one of the fastest-growing news sources on Substack, YouTube, and in the digital arena. Lincoln Square Media is a joint venture with The Lincoln Project. Lincoln Square’s mission is to expose, inspire, inform, lead, and connect — and present the tools not just to fight back, but fight forward for the America we all deserve. Lincoln Square creates podcasts, live streaming, digital and social media, commentary, articles, town halls, public and virtual community gatherings, and strategy calls with people like Rick Wilson, Stuart Stevens, Joe Trippi and Jeff Timmer who have led the biggest campaigns – and won.
