Big Tech has been digitally surveilling us and collecting our personal data for years. Now supercharged by AI they have thrown in with the American Fascists to infiltrate the government, including the military. The good news is the Tech Bros are not really that smart. www.charlesbursell.com

The Bezos wedding is peak 21st Century Gilded Age, SCOTUS hands over the keys to the kingdom, and the Very Bad Bill enables the king, unless we can stop it. Call Congress now:  202-224-3121   www.charlesbursell.com

Chucky Bucky and Uncle Chuck watch  Jeopardy! together. A listener calls in to complain. www.charlesbursell.com

The madness of the Iran nuclear dustup brings into harsh focus the need for a worldwide people-to-people democracy movement that shuns so-called 'leaders' and reduces the power of profit and borders, eventually abolishing them altogether.    www.charlesbursell.com

Netanyahu operates The Orange Menace to conduct his criminal war, while Congressional Repugs' make him King in order to pass the wildly unpopular agenda they've been trying to slip past voters since they were little Birchers.  www.charlesbursell.com

Hey Democrats, do your job or get out of the way for those who will. Also, nobody except numbskull neocons favor Netanyahu's illegal war, and political violence is not only immoral, it's downright stupid.  www.charlesbursell.com

The week was particularly violent, both in the real world and in the cosplaying Chickenhawk In Chief's fascist reality TV show. Still dangerous, the Regime is backpedaling while the resistance ascends.     www.charlesbursell.com

Show Notes: The Resistance has room to grow. Don't ask, demand. American Fascists are miles ahead of their Twentieth Century counterparts. The press fails to cover Hegseth and covers for him. The Regime's ideological purity test includes a pro-Capitalist pledge. Turn off the video, audio is superior. Harvard's free online classes. How to unplug the Tech-Bro Monarchs forever: abolish money.   

Some needed context in the cold and lawless attack on immigrants: The Regime bolsters its cruel authoritarian project, who the police swore to serve and protect, for-profit media lies, the discipline of nonviolence, the difference between protest rallies and direct action, and corporate Dems usurp the resistance.  www.charlesbursell.com

LA protesters stand up to ICE, Elon Musk's political rapid unscheduled disassembly, the German Chancellor schools the Orange Clown in front of the world, and in a victory for due process, Kilmar is back on US soil to face down trumped-up charges.   www.charlesbursell.com

The big bill is as bad as you've heard – transferring wealth to the rich while gutting essential health and safety regulations – and much, much worse: like guaranteeing certain death for hundreds of thousands who rely on subsidized health or international aid. Oh, and it "legalizes" American Fascism. Think I'm exaggerating? Read the bill. Then kill it. www.charlesbursell.com

The MAGA pod people, a sad collection of dorks and bastards who rely on hate and lies to hold power, have snatched the Iowa Senator. Plus: Gaza is one giant war crime, a moral victory for West Point, and free thinking may not be what you think it is.    www.charlesbursell.com

From Gaza to Ukraine to the latest Orange Menace mayhem, imagine how each story would be different if we lived in a real democracy. And then, let every decision you make, and every action you take, demand that democracy.    www.charlesbursell.com

Several years (from the 90s to today) of questionable audio bits, improv, tests,  and outtakes swept off the cutting room floor and tossed into a goofy collage episode. Enjoy! 

The Big Abomination Bill gives 25% of total tax cuts to the Super Wealthy (top 0.1%) and 66% to the Just Plain Wealthy. The Working Poor will LOSE a thousand dollars a year they already don't have. The good news: They will probably fail spectacularly. The bad news: ICE is still the F-ing Gestapo.   www.charlesbursell.com

To prove a point, this episode has an intentionally provocative title to see if it results in more clicks, illustrating one of the problems with so-called "new media" on the socials. Also: we discuss the latest headlines, the Trump Doctrine and… really, is he gay?   www.charlesbursell.com

Corruption and incompetence still define the regime even as they seem to be riffing wildly on policy. Will enough Americans resist, or will they trade their freedom for a place in the new authoritarian  bourgeoisie.   www.charlesbursell.com

To the war mongers we are cannon fodder. To the money mongers we are the dead eyed, docile workers of Metropolis. Throw yourself on the gears. Strike! Boycott! Stop the fascist machine. Shut it down.   www.charlesbursell.com
