REAL Numbers and The Enthusiasm Gap 02.09.2024

Let's look at actual, factual numbers - not polls - but voter registration. The enthusiasm gap is demonstrated in a few different forums. Along with one of the presidential campaigns, the enthusiasm gap is proving to be INSANE! There is also a lot of evidence that down-ballot candidates and their campaigns are now on track to help up-ballot candidates all the way up to Kamala. (, la). But the exci...

Split Screen of GOP In a Nosedive, and the Dems In a Rocket Launch 26.08.2024

We're celebrating the huge success of the majestic DNC and split-screening it with the dark and sorry RNC. The trump party (because there is no longer a Republican Party) is in a hopeless nosedive. But the Democratic Party is launched and entering the stratosphere. Republicans are either unravelling or joining the Democrats at the DNC. It's pretty amazing to behold. Todd Mikkelson - Host, Writer,...

trump's genius continues to hurt him and help the Harris/Walz Campaign. Polls and reality show him losing, and her winning. 19.08.2024

PLEASE speak more, Donald. Even your own followers are getting bored watching you deteriorate and shrink. YOU are now the old guy who can't speak. When both Kamala and Tim Walz speak they gain excitement and momentum. And now we're going into the Democratic Convention. More and more analysts are talking about the possibility of a Harris landslide. Todd Mikkelson - Host, Writer, Researcher, Recordi...

This Is What A Change to a Higher Vibration Feels Like...Donald is Tanking, Kamala is Rising 12.08.2024

Kamala was ahead of her time in 2020. The 5th Dimension was ahead of their time in 1969. Both of their visions are coming to fruition in 2024, and we will all contribute to the power and energy. We will also feel the benefits of this completely new world. Donald Trump is one of the biggest contributors to this final turnover. He is the master of doing the most perfectly wrong thing always. Should...

Turned Back Upright 05.08.2024

Our world has felt as though it's been turned upside-down for many years now. Just in the last few weeks it feels as though it has begun the process of being turned right-side-up again.

The Fever Has Broken 29.07.2024

It was getting more and more scary. We all thought we'd make it through the horrible sickness and be fine afterward. But there's always that doubt that it will work out well in the end. Then your fever breaks. Suddenly you remember how great it feels to just be alive in the same world you were in before the horrible sickness. Our American tragedy of trumpism is finished. He is defeated. The events...

Donald Trump and Project 2025 is STILL fascist. No assassination attempt changes the truth. 15.07.2024

The truth ain't nothing but the truth. No assassination attempt changes that. "Leftist rhetoric" did not bring on this hateful, gun-fanatic, mentally disturbed, registered republican to use a weapon Democrats have been trying to ban for decades to kill the GOP's cult leader. I will stop calling trump a fascist when he stops being a fascist. This changes nothing. We need to keep up our truth-tellin...

The Keys to the White House, Impeachment of Corrupt SCOTUS & Vote Against NAZI Project 2025 08.07.2024

Why would we not consider tried and true information and data? Why do we keep relying on polls that have been completely wrong for many years? Why has no one asked or demanded that trump step aside or drop out of the race? There is a strong and reliable system that has correctly predicted the outcome of every presidential race since 1864...that's right...since 1864. it's right in front of us. But...

Surprise! Debate Boosts Biden While Economists & CEOs Abandon Trump 01.07.2024

Should big decisions be made within minutes after any certain event? Would it not be prudent and smart to let things settle, take some time to reflect, and gauge reactions from others? The stupidest thing Democrats could do is force a replacement for Joe Biden after his - and I'll admit it was an - abysmal performance in this first presidential debate. There is evidence that most of Americans reco...

The Hypocritic Oath 24.06.2024

The sacred oath one must take in order to be a conservative and/or a republican - The Hypocritic Oath. Whether it be passing anti-gay legislation even though you are a closet gay man, or you've payed for your girlfriend's or multiple girlfriends' abortion while you strip that right away from all other women. It is the prerequisite required to become a conservative. We'll also observe the decline o...

Let Trump Be Trump 17.06.2024

Trump is getting out and proudly being himself. The Republican Party is scrambling to clean up that mess. This has been a long week for them. And they've used up almost all of their cleaning chemicals. But they've got another four-and-a-half months of cleaning up after him. He's the elephant in their parade, and they don't have a large enough garbage trailer to scoop up the feces he's dumping on t...

Left Or Reich? That Is The Question 09.06.2024

Donald Trump and other more apt right-wingers have made it very clear that they want to make the United States into something similar to Russia, North Korea, or NAZI Germany. We need to take this very seriously in our consideration of our choices this November's elections. We spend the first half of the show becoming clear on the grim truths of a republican future in this country. The second half...

The Pecker Knows What The Pecker Knows 03.06.2024

Like we predicted last week, we are now talking about trump as a convicted felon. What's next for him? It's quite surprising! Don't want to give the best parts away. This episode is full of nothing but best parts. The traditional media outlets want you to be afraid of what's to come. Sure enough they are talking about how trump becoming a convicted felon hurts Biden and the Democrats. How stupid d...

Loose Holiday Edition 27.05.2024

We're talking about last week, and this coming week. It's a holiday weekend so we're unscripted. But we've put a lot of time into what experts are saying about the verdict and jury decision coming up this week in trump's first trial. Listen for that synopsis. Also, last week Nikki Haley turned her back on her supporters. Wow. Let's discuss just how un-American, vile, but mostly stupid that is. AND...

Let's Stop To Smell The Roses 20.05.2024

We've been the frogs in the slowly boiling water for many years now. It got so hot we almost jumped out of the nearly boiling water. But then it began to cool back down. It's been cooling down slowly for a few years now, and we also haven't noticed that because it's been so slow. Let's take some time to analyze some important things. Let's take some time to stop for a bit. Let's stop to smell the...

Worm Eating the Whole GOP Brain 13.05.2024

Let's get this straight. Yes, the prospect of trump winning this election is scary as all f**k. BUT...he just simply ain't gon'win. Yes, the prospect of him trying to make another Jan 6 event happen is scary as all sh*t. But he doesn't have that kinda power no'mo', and all the organizers and leaders of that are in jail. It's ok to feel like things are getting - and in fact already are - BETTER. We...

Didn't We All Used To Be Against Killing Puppies? 06.05.2024

We cover the hard decision of leaders whether to shoot the cute puppy in the face, or to shoot the cute puppy execution style. Also whether the size of the hands of the Commander in Chief is still the main concern of a hopeful VP for the GOP ticket. What does the "Don" think of his supporters?...(nothing) We remind ourselves of the reality of the coming election results. Don't let them make you fe...

Doom and Despair Intervention 29.04.2024

Getting too brought down and brought into despair by the doom scrolling? That's just what the evil authoritarians want. This is an intervention. Put that device down. Let's talk about reality...yes...reality. You have the power to be rid of the despair and doom. Let's do this together! And, yes of course we will still be making fun of the un-electrified brain matter of the GOP and their leader, (t...

Walking Into Trial Pecker First 22.04.2024

Ain't nothin' stoppin' this first criminal trial of our first (well actually our fourth) criminal former POTUS. And he is bringing the entire republican party down with him...because they're allowing him to. The republican party will be extinct this November. But you already knew that. Even before this criminal trial that could bring about an incarceration of donald trump, justice may have been al...

trump & MAGA Need to Lie to Win (in blackface) 15.04.2024

Put on your blackface and start lying, or we won't win this election. What we want to do after we're elected is opposed be the vast majority of Americans. So we have to lie to the voters, or we won't win. It's as simple as that. And as your republican presumptive nominee, i will be making it as uncomfortable and difficult for you to get elected as possible. ALSO! The republican party is on the ver...

It's Getting Hankey All Up In Here 08.04.2024

Billionaire math never maths. These "billionaires" are always trying to change valuations for different reasons, launder their money, lie for different reasons. They lose track of their lies, and the math does not compute in the end. Even the "bonding company" that put up the bond for trump is getting called out. Maybe more fraud indictments? And trump's lawyers lied to the appellate division in t...

Trump Does His Own SNL Skit 01.04.2024

He's more absurd than actual comedy. He's more funny than any SNL skit. SNL tried to do a skit on this subject and it was less than half as funny. trump is a joke. He's not running a campaign. Every word out of his mouth loses voters and money. When people are exposed to Biden he gains voters. When people are exposed to trump he loses voters. Alabama just had a State House seat turn blue.........B...

The Trains' a Comin' 25.03.2024

If you're thinking that trump and the GOP is just going to get away with it... the train is not going to be stopped. The train's'a'comin'. And it ain't just one train...

You know we can hear you, right? 18.03.2024

Personhood Ends at Birth? 04.03.2024

Does the Republican Party really thin they're going to gain more voters by proclaiming that a human being is only a human being BEFORE they're born? I dunno. It seems they've lost all perspective on how to gain voters. This would mean they've also lost all perspective on how to relate to American citizens. Their party leader is a mobster who's wanting to use mobster tactics to intimidate jurors in...
