Kathleen Wells has since 2006 hosted The Kathleen Wells Show, a progressive, political talk program heard on local radio. Also, since 2011 she has hosted The Naked Truth Report on AM radio, exposing how the Democratic Party has undermined freedom, the family, and American values. As a Republican and MAGA enthusiast, Kathleen argues that the Democratic Party (and more than a few Black Democratic politicians) have injured and economically stagnated Black America with their denigration of family values and their support of uncontrolled immigration. Kathleen holds a B.A. in political science from UCLA and a J.D. from U.C. Berkley.
