Abortion rights voters are reshaping politics in the coming political season—starting with a special election to the Virginia State Senate. John Nichols joins the show to discuss this and the most important election of 2023: the open seat on the Wisconsin State Supreme Court.
Also on this episode: Walmart is the biggest employer in America, and the Walton family, the children of Walmart founder Sam Walton, is the richest family in the world. Rick Wartzman joins the show to talk about how the company has raised wages and become more socially conscious-but it provides a case study of the limits of socially conscious capitalism. Wartzman’s new book on Walmart and its workers is titled “Still Broke.”
