The Mincing Rascals this week are John Williams of WGN Radio, Eric Zorn, Publisher of The Picayune Sentinel, Cate Plys, former staff writer at the Chicago Reader and political op-ed columnist at the Sun-Times and Tribune, and political pundit Marj Halperin. The Rascals start today’s podcast talking about the pro-Palestinian protests that are happening on college campuses around the country. What do the Rascals make of the protests, and the impact they might have on the 2024 election? Marj wrote an Op-ed in the Tribune about the new Bears stadium proposal. The Rascals break down what else we need to know about the proposal. Also, what are the Rascals thoughts on Mayor Brandon Johnson being told to stay away from the funeral of slain CPD officer Luis Huesca? The Pritzker administration will expand coverage of weight-loss drugs for state government workers. Do the Rascals believe this is a good investment? South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem revealed that she killed her dog because it was behaving poorly during a hunting expedition. Do the Rascals believe this will end her political career? And finally, what’s the latest on the Trump trial?
