00:00-15:49: James No-Show/MAGA Shutdown/Detroit Elections
Pat Johnston opens this week's show on MAGA Republican Gubernatorial Candidate John James' refusal to appear at a Republican debate this week. And that's not a big change considering how Congressman James refuses to hold town halls! James supports the Trump Regime/MAGA Republican Government Shutdown that's hurting working class Americans. And Pat concludes the segment talking about some important races in the City of Detroit, including the chance to elect Democratic Socialist Denzel McCampbell on the City Council.
15:50-41:00: William Lawrence For Congress Interview
Progressive Democratic candidate for Michigan's 7th Congressional District, William Lawrence, joins the show to talk about his working class campaign. Mr. Lawrence is working to unseat MAGA Republican Congressman Tom Barrett. He shares his progressive activist background in affordable housing and climate change, and why he wants to unite the working class to gain economic security for Michigan families.

41:47-48:04: Last Call-"Israel-First" Republicans
In the Last Call, Pat calls-out some MAGA Republicans who are showing more loyalty towards Israel's right-wing government than they do for working class Americans. And shout-out to Michigan Progressive Democratic State Rep. Dylan Wegela for speaking the truth!
48:05-50:54: Ending
