Yung Miami’s “Spend Dat” is the hit of the summer, a song that glorifies scamming. Does music like this set a bad example for the Black community or do older generations just need something to complain about?

Plus, our hosts debate if the Democratic “big tent” is big enough for socialists after the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) takeover of NYC’s primaries. Will socialists sabotage Democrats in the midterms? Heads up y’all, this one gets heated!

Join hosts Angela Rye, Bakari Sellers, and Andrew Gillum for episode 138 of Native Land Pod.

FYSA HEADLINES

1. SCOTUS finished this session with everything from Trump’s executive authority to birthright citizenship. Folks are asking why so many opinions at once?

2. 50 Cent will perform at Donald Trump Jr.'s members-only MAGA club on July 3rd.

3. Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson announces the establishment of "The Office of Gun Violence Reduction."

4. Former NFL star Chris Johnson on Good Morning America opens up about his ALS diagnosis.

5. The Trump family’s crypto gains have topped $2 billion. That’s about the same amount of money that investors in Trump’s crypto ventures have lost.
