The Rick Smith Show

PA State Senator Jay Costa @Senatorcosta

Jay Costa: I believe what the Republicans did was not lawful, based on the rules in place. We offered many compromises to get to the point where Sen. Brewster could be seated but Repubs refused.

Dr. Keith Pochick, Physician @keith_pochick

Dr. Keith Pochick: In LA County, they're having to ration oxygen. There was a story in Egypt about a hospital running out of oxygen, & every person in their ICU died within a few hours.

Khary Penebaker: I am glad Jacob is alive; I hope he's able to regain mobility in his legs, but even if he doesn't, I hope he sues them for every penny they've got. There's no way this should sit well with anyone.

Jon Shelton: If Biden's going to be more than a one-term President, he needs to have some kind of a jobs guarantee or he's not going to go anywhere. People need jobs, especially after this pandemic.

Will Bunch, National columnist for Philadelphia Daily News @Will_Bunch

Will Bunch: I think a lot depends on Biden. I'm seeing good things about how the Biden team seems to understand how important this [vaccine distribution] is. Can he make it work in a way that Trump couldn't?

David Pepper, former Chairman, Ohio Democratic Party @DavidPepper @OHDems

David Pepper: When officials talk about infrastructure, I don't think small towns realize it includes them, too. Things like internet, green energy jobs, etc.

Bob Ney, Political Analyst/Former OH Congressman @BobNey

Bob Ney: If you look at what Trump is doing now, vrs Clinton & Gingrich, Clinton & Gingrich were much more cooperative than what Trump is now.

Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Professor/Author @ruthbenghiat

Ruth Ben-Ghiat: This is why I really think we have to look at Trump & the whole thing around him through the lens of authoritarianism. Once there are enough years of propaganda, it takes a true disaster to get people to wake up & realize what he's said isn't true.

Ben Phillips: The 1% knows they have to make up "facts" to tell us. If they just told us the truth, we'd never elect them.

Sarah Burris: I wonder what Tucker Carlson's dissertation is about since he's trashing Dr. Jill Biden's. Oh, that's right...he doesn't have one. She has two Master's & a Doctorate. He's jealous.
