Audio: Congressional Candidate Tony Trupiano

Audio: Interview With Congressional Candidate Tony Trupiano


By David Swanson

Here's a 30-minute mp3 file of an interview I recorded earlier today with Tony Trupiano, the former national radio host who is now the Democratic nominee to throw Bush-follower Thaddeus McCotter out of his seat in the U.S. House of Representatives where he fails to represent Michigan's 11th District.

While I support Trupiano and encourage others to do so, in this interview I ask him about positions he's taken that I find troubling. In case you don't have time for the whole interview and want to skip ahead, here are some topics discussed, in order:

Tony describes the support he's received from around the country, including over $200,000 with an average contribution of $27.

Tony discusses a recent debate with his opponent and the newspaper coverage found here, and here.

Impeachment.

Immigration.

Jobs.

Health care.

Iraq.

Veterans.

The peace movement.

Iran.

Stolen elections.

Give him a dagger, and he was bound to use it. More

Ramzy Baroud: The Palestinian Cause Belongs To The World

Once upon a time, the ‘Arab-Israeli Conflict’ was between Arabs & Israelis. Over the course of many years, however, it has been rebranded. The media is now telling us it is a ‘Hamas-Israeli Conflict.’ But what went wrong? Israel simply became too powerful. More
