Aug 6, 2026 · 1h 18m
Summary
The hosts of the Ruthless Podcast analyze the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America, focusing on Abdul El-Sayed’s narrow primary victory in Michigan. They argue that the Democratic Party has been captured by anti-American, socialist ideologies, citing El-Sayed’s past comments and the influence of figures like Hasan Piker. The episode also critiques Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Sarah Godlewski’s rhetoric on "proximity to whiteness" and discusses the broader threat of far-left candidates in key races.
