How Did It Get There?”: Socialists, Heat Dome Panic, And The Florida Butt-Cocaine Defense

The 7 AM hour starts with immigration, Colorado, and the growing power of Democratic Socialists. Sean cites reports of large-scale immigration arrests, then moves to Colorado, where Melat Kiros defeats longtime Rep. Diana DeGette in the Democratic primary for the 1st District. The crew plays Kiros’s comments linking the September 11 attacks to American foreign policy and debates the difference between criticizing foreign policy and sounding like America had it coming. Callers and the crew dig into how the Democratic Party moves from liberal to progressive to socialist, with Sean warning that the shift is no longer fringe. Manny Rutinel’s win in Colorado’s 8th District becomes another warning sign because that district is much more competitive. The crew connects low-turnout primaries, DSA organizing, Harry Enten’s Senate math, Maine’s Senate race, and mail ballots after Election Day into a larger argument about why Republicans should not get comfortable. The hour then gets lighter and stranger with Reagan Cox’s Florida butt-cocaine case, her alleged “intimate encounter” explanation, and the crew’s disbelief at the defense.
