Aug 25, 2026 · 1h 35m
Summary
The Ruthless Podcast hosts Josh Holmes, Michael Duncan, and John Ashbrook critique Democratic Socialists of America leaders like Gustavo Gordillo and Grace Ryan for their privileged backgrounds and hypocritical claims of working-class solidarity. They argue these wealthy, Ivy League-educated activists are "frustrated aristocrats" using government power to redistribute wealth rather than building value themselves. The episode also celebrates the successful Freedom 250 IndyCar race in Washington D.C., praising President Trump and Roger Penske for the patriotic event.
