Episodes

Episode 695 | Wretched, Huddled Massess? Nah. Trump Wants Your Rich White Europeans 14.08.2019

Trump appointee, Ken Cuccinelli, rewrites the famed poem by Emma Lazarus. Then he went on CNN and denied saying it even though we have audio. What's more, he claims that the poem was referencing EUROPEANS. We've gotten to a point in the American discourse where the racist parts are said out loud and the lies require zero effort. Let's discuss.

Episode 694 | Trump's Tax Breaks FAIL | The Brutal Fight Ahead for Medicare for All 13.08.2019

We saw it coming a mile away -- and yet, here we are. Trump's tax breaks have exploded the deficit. And now they have the unmitigated gall to be asking for more. And, have you considered the real fight ahead for Medicare For All? Can you imagine how far the filthy rich will go to protect billions -- if not trillions -- of dollars in revenue? Let's discuss.

Episode 692 - Democratic Debate Drama | Why CNN Should Never Host Another Debate 01.08.2019

Episode 690 | America Finally Calls Trump a Racist | Pandering To Racists Cause Economic Anxiety? 22.07.2019

Most of America finally admits Trump is a racist. But there are still a few hold outs who think he isn't actually racist but strategically being racist. What's the difference, and who cares?! Let's talk about the AOC/Ilhan Squad #SquadGoals.

Episode 689 | Jeffrey Epstein Arrested: Low People In High Places | Conservatives HATE Megan Rapinoe 08.07.2019

Episode 686| Est. 1953: America's Long Road to an Unnecessary War With Iran 19.06.2019

Donald Trump is going to wag-the-dog us right into war with Iran. Everything about this possible conflict is unnecessary. And everything about this -- everything that led to this point-- is America's fault. Take a listen in as I rant about how from 1953 to the present, America created its own problems in Iran and now their latest solution is an all out war.

Episode 681 | Republicans Are Neoliberals. Period. 04.06.2019

Fair Warning: I yell a lot in this episode. Check your volume. Episode 681. Listen, I've argued this before but it has to be argued again. Republicans ARE Neoliberal. Neoliberalism is an economic paradigm and has been a constant in America since Ronald Reagan. So if you're arguing that people are pushed to fascism because of Neoliberalism and neoliberalism is constant in both parties, it is highly...

Episode 679 | Placating Revolutionaries: Boomers Got Homes , Millenials Get Social Media 28.05.2019

Capitalism is always finding new ways of satiating the masses -- to keep us from rebelling against the systemic economic plunder that takes place every day. But today it dawned on me that, while Boomers were placated with home ownership, our generation is basically distracted and happy with flexing on social media. Let's talk about it.

Episode 675 | The Establishment is Trying to Out-Flank Sanders on Reparations and He isn't Helping 11.03.2019

Bernie Sanders still doesn't support reparations. This is 2016 all over again except the political establishment has head-faked to the Left of Sanders as though they actually support reparations. They don't. But Sanders has been so bold on other issues that it is frustrating to see him be *pragmatic* only when it comes to reparations. Let's discuss.
