PM Show Hr 2 | The Dems Knew About Swalwell But Cared More About Winning

The episode opens with a deep dive into Congressman Eric Swalwell's suspension of his California gubernatorial campaign amid multiple allegations of sexual assault. Host Michael Berry argues that the Democratic establishment, aware of Swalwell's past misconduct for years, orchestrated his removal not due to moral reckoning but strategic necessity—fearing a loss in California, a critical state for Democrats. He claims the party would rather sacrifice a candidate than risk losing power, citing the earlier replacement of Joe Biden with Kamala Harris as precedent. The discussion then shifts to President Trump’s foreign policy, particularly his aggressive stance on Iran’s Strait of Hormuz toll booth, and his economic strategy of imposing 100% tariffs on Chinese cars, which he claims has boosted American oil production and energy stocks. A satirical segment mocks the politicization of milk, with a fictional NPR-style piece suggesting 'white milk' is a symbol of white supremacy, highlighting cultural absurdities in progressive discourse. The episode concludes with a nostalgic reflection on Tiger Woods’ 1997 Masters victory, celebrating his transformative impact on golf and the sport’s global popularity, while also empathizing with his chronic pain and personal struggles, arguing that his driving offenses are not crimes of violence but symptoms of deeper suffering.
