Chicago journalist Ben Joravsky starts each show by riffing on the news of the day with his celebrated humor, insight, and honesty. Then he talks politics with activists, elected officials, journalists and all sorts of political know-it-alls. We talk Chicago, Illinois, national (lots of national), international and lefty politics. Find The Ben Joravsky Show wherever you download podcasts.
Robert Sarver announces he's selling the Phoenix Suns & Mercury in part because of "our current unforgiving climate". Ben riffs. And Monroe Anderson and Mark Wallace return to examine just three of the lawsuits Donald Trump is facing. Including...the New York attorney general's suit against Trump's company; the attorney general's case against him for taking secret documents out of the White House; the E. Jean Carroll's ongoing defamation suit case against him for calling her a liar after she said he raped her. That's some president you worship, MAGA. Also, Mark reports on the surprising results from Floridan regarding Governor Ron DeSantis.
