Does it seem like the old gatekeepers of the Liberal "Blogosphere" are losing their minds? Oh, the "blogosphere" was a media era where people posted their diaries on the internet about how much they hated George W. Bush. The individual diaries were called "blogs" short for "world wide web logs." You, know, like a "Captain's Log." Yes, I'm aware this is an Arby's but I shan't order until I finish what I'm saying....

Rod Blagojevich

Felix Biederman

Felix Biederman (Chapo Trap House), Ramsin Canon (Chicago DSA), Adrian @Blagojevism and I talk about the storied life of Illinois Governor Rod R. Blagojevich. Rod in many ways was the last of his generation, a white ethnic political scrapper who made his bones under the old Chicago political machine. When that machine turned neoliberal, he was offered as a sacrifice to show that corruption had finally ended in the Prairie State, making way for bloodless middle-managers like Rahm Emanuel.  Blago is a complicated character, rife with contradictions. To understand Blago is to understand the changing of the guard in Illinois politics.    Produced by Dan Black.

With the release of The Irishmen, there's much talk about the legacy of Jimmy Hoffa Sr. The Washington Post published an op-ed that praised the top-down, cutting corners style of Hoffa.  This got me thinking about how we beat the top-down bureaucrats in the Chicago Teachers Union in 2010. There are two choices unions have: be member-driven, or be leadership-driven.

She explains the unique issues that sex workers face in a time when all work is precarious. Sex workers who are not in a position to stay home face harsher working conditions from customers, bosses, and law enforcement.  Marla, by not working, will owe her club "back rent" for simply being employed. Marla shares how she and her fellow sex workers are finding solidarity remotely in these uncertain times and how allies can help fight the stigma and push for policy reforms that will allow sex workers rights like all workers deserve.
