Biden picks another legal fight with AG Bailey, DEI ruins farming, Michael Markey runs for US House
On the second episode of the podcast, Amanda Head talks with Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey about his legal efforts to thwart President Joe Biden from being able to sneak in a new student loan debt forgiveness plan before the 2024 elections. The Attorney General said this pending program, “is a redistribution of wealth from cultural elites who decided to go to college and take out loans.” General Bailey went on to say Biden’s new plan is ‘unconstitutional and illegal’ and that he’s going to put a stop to it again, going as far as saying he would, “hold them [the Biden Administration] in contempt of court if they won’t obey the lawful orders of the United States Supreme Court.” General Bailey also gives an update on other important court cases like Murthy v. Missouri (formerly Missouri v. Biden), as well as on his suit filed against Media Matters.
Later, Amanda Head talks with William Trachman about how the push for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within educational institutions has potentially ruined community farming at the University of California at Berkeley. The former Trump-appointed Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Office for Civil Rights for the Department of Education, now, General Counsel for Mountain States Legal Foundation talks about the importance of his complaint against the school, and why, “all public institutions, including universities, respect the equal dignity and rights of all Americans, regardless of skin color or any other protected class.”
Finally, Amanda dives into the world of campaign politics with a Republican Congressional candidate running in a targeted U.S. House race in the battleground state of Michigan. Michael Markey Jr. of Grand Haven bills himself as a “disrupter, father, and entrepreneur.” He and Amanda dive into the importance of securing our border and ensuring no American has to live through what Laken Riley and Ruby Garcia’s families had to. Although in a somewhat crowded primary which will be decided by West Michigan voters on August 6th, Markey is edging out his competition along the campaign trail and is hoping to replace former Obama Justice Department official and incumbent Democrat Congresswoman Hillary Scholten.
