Trumped Up: A MOMocrats Interview with Spike Dolomite

May 27, 2025 • MOMocrats • Season 13 • Episode 17

Spike Dolomite is an artist, an advocate, and a fierce and funny writer. We’ve known her since the Obama years, when she was a contributor to the MOMocrats 1.0 group blog. And when she told us she had written a book, we knew we wanted to interview her.

We intended to drop this interview into the second half-hour of last week's podcast. But the pace at which the new regime is authoritarianizing America is so fast and furious, we spent the entire hour yakking about it. So decided to send this one out as a standalone bonus episode.

Donna Schwartz Mills described Spike's book - which summarizes this president's first administration - as a "depressing read." This lively interview is anything but that.
