The Rick Smith Show

Bob Ney: The Postmaster General Louis DeJoy has been accused of interfering with the USPS before. Even he can't mess it up if the USPS gets this $25 billion they need.

Bob Ney: Rick, do you think, with the virus going on, that some Republicans who support Trump will use the postal system? Rick: Yes! That's why Trump said it was okay to use mail-in ballots in FL.

Helaine Olen: I thought Kamala Harris was amazing. She stuck it to Trump, she was charismatic, energetic. I'm more progressive but I do think she was the right call by Biden.

Ray Nowosielski: We want to put "unionism," "labor," & "solidarity" right up there with other progressive movements like Black Lives Matter, climate change, etc. We also want to appeal to Trump voters.

Christine Vaccaro: We did away with standardized testing last year and no one died. If we could reframe education without that piece, and address what teachers can offer... We're one of few professional jobs that require advanced degrees.
