Welcome home y’all! On this week’s episode, no big surprises in the Michigan primary election, but both parties are showing significant signs of dissent. The hosts examine what the results mean for the winners of the primary (Trump and Biden) as they look ahead to super Tuesday.  DEI remains under attack. This week the Alabama senate passes a bill that outlaws funding for state-run DEI initiatives. Will black athletes roll tide or bounce? One mayor is on the frontlines of this issue.  Angela delivers an update on the Fani Willis case and the hosts have a spirited debate on the boundaries of professional decorum and ethical obligations in the Fani Willis hearing.  And in Politics Are Everywhere– we got beef with Wendy’s. Wendy’s is planning to institute “surge” pricing like Uber and Lyft, a move that would disproportionately affect black and brown communities.  Thank you for submitting State Of The Union questions!! The hosts will answer as many as they can get to in advance of the speech next Thursday.  We want to hear from you!
