This week on Ladies of Another View, the hosts welcomed Jo Bogner, a conservative now living in Washington State, who gave a powerful inside look at the intense political shift happening on the West Coast. The show opened with the explosive story of Seattle’s new socialist mayor-elect, Katie Wilson, who celebrated on X that her $230,000 salary now allows her to stop relying on her parents for childcare—even as she pushes aggressive socialist policies like government-run grocery stores. The hosts broke down what her election means for Seattle and how it mirrors the rise of socialist figures such as New York City’s Zohran Mamdani.
Bogner spoke honestly about the challenges of being a conservative in a deeply left-leaning region, comparing Washington’s political culture to the common-sense values of North Dakota. The show also referenced journalist Brandy Kruse, who has shifted away from liberalism and now exposes what she believes is the dangerous direction Washington State is heading.
The conversation dug into the bigger question: Why does the political left keep embracing socialism? The hosts featured blunt comments from Senator John Kennedy and powerful warnings from Yeonmi Park, a North Korean defector who sees alarming similarities between socialist rhetoric in America and the propaganda she escaped.
The episode then shifted to a major national controversy involving six Democratic lawmakers who appeared in a video suggesting military members can ignore “illegal orders.” Stephen A. Smith’s fiery commentary called out Senator Mark Kelly for encouraging troops to disobey commands based on political disagreements, stressing the importance of the chain of command in a stable nation.
The show ended on a nostalgic, upbeat note with memories of the classic hidden-camera series Candid Camera, adding a touch of humor to wrap up a hard-hitting episode.
