VIDEO: Vaccines for kids in Alabama schools, race for governor a hot topic, SPLC targets Mo Brooks and more on Alabama Politics This Week

—

June 27, 2021

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and political consultant Mecca Musick take you through Alabama’s biggest political stories, including:

— Should Alabama school systems be engaged in recruiting kids for vaccinations without parental consent?

— Are all of Governor Kay Ivey’s potential challengers easily dismissed after one acknowledges she can’t be beat?

— How happy is U.S. Representative Mo Brooks (R-Huntsville) to see the Southern Poverty Law Center attacking him in the middle of a GOP primary for U.S. Senate?

Jackson and Musick are joined by Mobile’s FM Talk 106.5 FM radio talk show host Sean Sullivan to discuss the issues facing the state of Alabama this week.

Jackson closes the show with a “Parting Shot” directed at President Joe Biden and his self-defeating suggestion that the military has F-15s and nuclear bombs as a talking point about seizing weapons from law-abiding Americans.

Watch:

Dale Jackson is a contributing writer to Yellowhammer News and hosts a talk show from 7-11 AM weekdays on WVNN and on Talk 99.5 from 10AM to noon.
