Bernie And Sid

Anthony D'Esposito, Former Congressman & Inspector General for the United States Department of Labor nominee, joins Sid to discuss the delay in his confirmation as Inspector General of the Department of Labor, blaming Senate obstruction, particularly from Chuck Schumer. He expects progress in early September when the Senate reconvenes. The conversation shifts to redistricting and election law changes in New York, which D’Esposito criticizes as Democratic attempts to rig the system by shifting local elections to even years to boost turnout. He emphasizes the GOP’s focus on retaining and expanding their local majorities in Nassau County, highlighting candidates like Bruce Blakeman and Ann Donnelly. On the topic of Trump pardoning George Santos, D’Esposito strongly disagrees, stating Santos is solely responsible for his actions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
