This week’s guest is Brandon Wade. He’s a Democratic Party candidate for Congress in Oklahoma CD2. I knew a kid growing up in Beulah who’s first name was Wade. There’s a guy at work who’s first name is Wade. That’s my excuse for the bonehead mistake of referring to Brandon Wade as “Wade” multiple times in the episode. Oops. Seriously though, Brandon Wade is the kind of grass-roots, working-class,...

It sounds cliche to say Labor Day isn't about the day off work and the picnic, even if it is true. Here's a good reminder of why it's true and why it's more than a history lesson. #labor #resistance #union (apologies to the young lady who I took a selfie with and promised to include in the video, it just didn't fit) This is a public episode.

Whenever the topic of taxing the rich pops up, I’m vexed with how so many middle-class and poor people are against the idea. Maybe if they did a little bit of simple math, they could see why it needs to be done. In this video, I used the billion-dollar Powerball jackpot to help them out with it. This is a public episode.

I was editing and posting a video earlier tonight when I learned about the DNC killing resolution 18. I’ve been struggling for a while on whether or not I should stay in the Democratic Party. The only thing that has kept me here is my sincere belief that our best bet going forward is to rebuild the party from the ground up. Now I’m not sure if that’s possible. One thing is for certain. If Ken Mart...

By refusing to indict Sean Dunn and Sydney Reid, the grand juries have set the example and given us reason to hope. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit resistorvic.substack.com/subscribe

George asks how to tell if a candidate is truly progressive or just wearing the label. Also, how to tell if you should contribute to them. Here’s my take. This is a public episode.

I feel like crap and I can’t promise that I’m in my right mind. That’s my excuse in case posting this video turns out to be a really bad idea. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit resistorvic.substack.com/subscribe

This isn’t my best video in terms of production quality. But it’s an important message that is urgent enough to take a shortcut on refinement. I’ve been saying all along that we need to take back the Democratic Party and return it to the grass-roots. This video talks about an issue that could be instrumental in kick-starting such a movement. PLEASE SHARE IT This is a public episode. If you'd like...

I’ve been under the weather this past week and not as productive. Otherwise, I would have had this one out days ago. This video was inspired by something Steve Anderson said when he was on the Resistor Vic Podcast with me the other day. He mentioned The Business Plot from 1933. Part of me wanted to say I remembered a brief mention of it from high school history. Another part of me said, “that was...

When Trump isn’t avoiding or lying about the Epstein files, he’s trying to make Article 1 irrelevant. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit resistorvic.substack.com/subscribe

Ep 12 of the Resistor Vic Podcast will be recorded live tomorrow night at 8pm EST. It will be live on TikTok and YouTube but primarily YouTube because that’s where my podcast software will link. I haven’t yet had an opportunity to figure out the Substack live option but I’m thinking I should. My guest will be Tom from Dagger Custom Apparel , the guy who makes the Sunflower shirts and sends $10 fro...

I don’t know if this is my best episode or not but I know it’s one of my favorites so far. When I started editing to try and get it down to a 20-30 minute version for free subscribers and a longer one for paid subscribers, I was able to cut about 10 minutes and I’m at just under an hour. One of the goals of my podcast is to expose people to the idea that politics is all of us and not what we see p...

The Trump administration is using psychological warfare against us. It’s time we start using it against them. The occupation of Washington D.C. is a great opportunity to start.

This past week I saw several videos with progressive candidates who are being shut out by establishment Dems at all levels of the party. They’re having a hard time raising money and getting exposure in their communities. Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek. - Barack ObamaThe Democratic Part...
