VIDEO: Alabama will stay at home, unemployment up big, more investigations into Trump and more on Alabama Politics This Week

—

April 5, 2020

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Alabama Democratic Executive Committee member Lisa Handback take you through this week’s biggest political stories, including:

— Has Governor Kay Ivey finally shut down the state?

— With unemployment exploding, how long will it take to return to “normal?”

— Will Democrats really try another investigation targeting the President of the United States?

Jackson and Handback are joined by Alabama Democratic Party Chairman Chris England to discuss Ivey’s decision-making and the post-coronavirus pandemic.

Jackson closes the show with a “parting shot” at everyone who told us not to wear masks, and making up the lie that they are actually more dangerous than not wearing them, only to now tell us we should probably be wearing masks.
