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.
After Trump kidnaps Maduro, the NYT takes a stand against swallowing government handouts. Ben riffs. Adolfo Mondragon runs through all of the alleged reasons Trump’s operatives concocted to justify the invasion and kidnapping. Drugs? Please. The Monroe Doctrine? Stop. Restoring democracy?

Adolfo is a lawyer in Chicago and an expert on gangster moves—which this definitely is.
