Lucy Flores on Emily's List's not so pro-choice choices, Keith Ellison, and being a troll warrior
Outspoken pro-choice advocate Lucy Flores, who still faces death threats for revealing having had an abortion at the age of 16, was backed by the influential pro-choice PAC "Emily's List," the two times she ran for Nevada State Assembly. But when Flores ran for Congress this year, they decided to back her primary opponent. Why? Spoiler alert/ hint: she didn't back Clinton & isn't a millionaire. Speaking of the political establishment, Flores talks about why she's been tempted to leave the Democratic Party, the new direction she hopes it moves in, why she wound up endorsing Keith Ellison for DNC chair, and how the murder of her two older brothers, the departure of her mother, and her trouble with the law as a teenager influenced her life and her politics. Plus we anoint Lucy a troll warrior.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
