Combat veteran, socialist… Senator? – Everything Law and Order Blog

Matthew Hoh is a disabled Marine combat veteran, a senior fellow at the Center for International Policy, and a member of the Eisenhower Media Initiative whom we have interviewed numerous times before on The Marc Steiner Show. Now he is the North Carolina Green Party’s first-ever nominated candidate to run for the US Senate. “We keep witnessing, undeniably, the brutal reality of a changing world, and a threatened future, from a worsening economic reality for the majority of us, and from the climate crisis for all of us,” Hoh states in his campaign launch video. “This is made possible by a two party political arrangement of War and Wall Street beholden to corporate interests and a law making system of legalized bribery.”

In this segment of The Marc Steiner Show, Marc welcomes Hoh back on the show to discuss his campaign, why he’s running as a Green Party candidate, what opportunities and barriers that presents, and how the struggles for democracy and for economic and social justice depend on breaking the stranglehold the two major parties have on our political system.Tune in for new episodes of The Marc Steiner Show every Monday and Thursday on TRNN.

  1. We need a third party since the two we have are useless but no third party candidate has ever won an election in a century have they?

  2. Host: "…progressive left inside the democratic party…" – that's pretty funny… it's great to see real working class candidates say no to the corporate-run dem party.

  3. North Carolina is extremely corrupt from top to the bottom. You are always going to have drug addicts who abuse medications what they are doing here is making it hard for the elderly and the people who is really sick who needs these meds and now cannot get them due to drug abusers who will just go to something else when they can't get the opioids anymore they'll start shooting heroin that's always available so letting the police tell your doctors how to treat your patients is not a way to solve this problem. Oh this place is so dirty and corrupt our elections have been fixed for years. Our last senator was paying young boys for sexual favors he's dead now thank God but he was the senator here for 30 years I'm sure you've heard of RC sole's he was also an attorney for years everyone knew what he was doing but nobody did anything about it people wasn't voting this guy in he was fixing the elections what ones they didn't pay the vote for him.

  4. Much respect. Matthew Hoh seems terrific, but I disagree that a 3rd party vote isn't a vote for the rightwing… it just is, materially, especially in a red state. I do agree with literally every single position you pointed to + agree with your takes on the dem party like 💯 Still this strategy is a long game but not in the current political environment. Sorry

  5. AT THIS POINT I'M WILLING TO VOTE ANY 3RD PARTY JUST TO BREAK UP THE 2 PARTY SYSTEM. TO VOTE OUT THOSE OLD, OLD, SAME PEOPLE WHO LIVE LONG STILL SEEING THEM HOLDING THE TOP GOVERNMENT OFFICES. THEY DON'T GO AWAY THEY CONTINUE PROTECTING THE SAME DECEITFUL, AMORAL, UGLY, DECADENT, CURROPTED, SPOILED, MISERABLE, FRUADULENT, SHAMELESS, GODLESS, LAWLESS AND BULLY, LIKE, PLOSY, SCHUMER, GRAHM, THAT TURTLE LOOKING CREATURE, AND MANY MORE IN ALL GOVERNMENTAL OFFICES AND ORGANIZATIONS.

  6. I find it amazing that u still stereotype everyone on Jan. 6th! The point of Jan. 6th was to get government to listen! But we see who they pander too! Praising and paying bonds! However, u still continue with the same old story. You don't ever hear anyone who can just be neutral.
