1Description
The Mincing Rascals this week are John Williams of WGN Radio, Eric Zorn, Publisher of The Picayune Sentinel, Brandon Pope, of WCIU, and longtime Chicago journalist Cate Plys! The Rascals start off the podcast talking about the protests in Los Angeles against the Trump administration’s immigration policies. What are the major takeaways from the protests? ABC News didn’t renew the contract of correspondent Terry Moran this week after he criticized President Trump and Stephen Miller in a now deleted post on X. Did ABC make the right decision in letting Moran go? Former Illinois Speaker of the House Mike Madigan will be sentenced Friday on federal corruption charges. Do the Rascals believe Madigan will serve prison time? And if so, how much time? President Trump wants to give a $1,000 investment account to newborns born in the U.S.A. What do the Rascals think of this proposal? And of course, the Rascals end the podcast with red light, yellow light, green light! What are the Rascals recommending (or not recommending) this week.
