Um Civics: "Shit’s Terrible" The Marie G. Paradox
Episode 65
Tuesday, 24 February, 2026
This week on Um, Sir, we take a deep dive into Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez. The vibes, the votes, the “I’m not like other Democrats” energy, and ask the question: who exactly is this for? From SAVE Act support to ICE funding to car analogies that never quite land, we unpack the rural vs. Seattle narrative, Blue Dog politics, and what it actually means to represent working people without throwing your own base under the bus. It’s nuanced. It’s spicy. It’s a little exasperated. And yes… shit’s terrible. Note: She did, in fact, end up voting against the Save Act the very next day. Did she see our "bang" reel on Instagram?
