About this episode
Jo sits down with Ron Filipkowski, MeidasTouch’s editor-in-chief, ex-prosecutor, and the guy whose X feed you check before your first coffee. The two dive straight into the Texas caper: Democratic lawmakers making a midnight dash out of the state—more Springsteen than C-SPAN—to stop the GOP’s latest attempt to gerrymander themselves a permanent majority. With the chaos playing out under the relentless August sun, Jo and Ron unpack why power grabs, broken maps, and viral misinformation aren’t some Beltway sideshow, they’re the main event and the stakes are everybody’s future. Ron litigates the headlines, calls out the media hacks, and tears into the cynical math of a system built to silence voters. Subscribe and Follow Jo: https://linktr.ee/jojofromjerz Hosted on Acast.
