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.
Ben riffs on Trump's insistence that Republicans swear allegiance to his "BIG LIE". And all five members of the newly formed City Council Democratic Socialist Caucus join the show to talk all things politics: Alderman Carlos Ramirez-Rosa, Alderwoman Jeanette Taylor; Alderwoman Rossana Rodriguez-Sanchez, Alderman Daniel La Spata and Alderman Byron Sigcho-Lopez. They explain why they formed the caucus and what they hope to accomplish.
