Kamala Is Brat (Hour 2)
To kick off our second hour, we share a recent speech from J.D. Vance. Years ago, he had suggested that parents of biological children receive more voting power because they “have more stake” in our country’s future. In the last few days, he has doubled down on this stance, which echoes past policies like the three-fifths compromise. This discriminatory practice would imply that people with biological children are more important, with no regard for adoption, fertility struggles, stepchildren, people waiting to have kids, or simply those who don’t want to raise children. We take your calls on this ridiculous idea.
Lately, we’ve been seeing an influx of memes about Kamala Harris. What exactly is “brat,” and what does it have to do with coconut trees? As our resident Gen Z representative, Aaron explains where this support for Kamala has come from and what it means. Our friend Jane Matenaer of Matenaer On Air also calls in to talk about memes!
