Exposing “Moderate” Democrat Matt Mahan
Wed Feb 04 2026
A surprising new name entered California governor’s race this week: San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan. The media and donor class are already branding him as a more “sensible” Democrat, but a closer look shows he’s far from the moderate he pretends to be. David Johnson, chairman of the Santa Clara County Republican Party, joins us to expose Mahan’s troubling record on taxes, crime, and homelessness. Steve also breaks down California’s proposed “mileage tax” and how it would hit working-class families hardest to satisfy climate ideologues. And Susan Shelley joins the show to cover Dr. Oz’s investigation into the LA hospice system, a city councilman on trial for corruption, and the absurd reason Los Angeles stopped repaving its streets.
