Tickets aren’t being sold, hotel rooms aren’t being filled, local restaurants are now downgrading their plans. Donald Trump had made the United States so hated & toxic, the world is staying away from this Summer’s World Cup. MAGA, MAGA. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I couldn’t stop. I started going off on JD Vance, on Trump & his band of arrogant jerks attacking the Pope, on how the Democratic Party needs to get its act together, and on what we all need to do to win overwhelmingly in November. I just couldn’t stop. So it went on for 50 minutes. A rant. A righteous rant. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

People in the Trump administration continue to brag about how they’ve dramatically decreased legal immigration. And in fact, the numbers show they decreased legal immigration way more than they have illegal immigration. Also…disagreement should not mean hate. Also, a true act of heroism. Hosted on Acast.

Almost everybody Trump is deporting does not have a criminal record. They are brown and black immigrants who are here and work hard. And Trump deporting them is devastating our economy - from farms, to restaurants, to…nursing homes. Yep, if Trump gets his way tens of thousands of elderly Americans will lose their caregivers. So damn wrong and cruel. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more...

The President of the United States was up all night posting crazy shit. Including a meme of himself as Jesus Christ. It may sound weird, but I don’t blame Trump for this. I blame all his supporters & sycophants. They’ve taught him to believe that he’s God, that he should be worshipped. This is on them. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I sat down this week with Jason Estevez, Democratic candidate for Governor in Georgia. We talked about the Democratic Party, his campaign, what voters are looking for these days, and how Democrats can best be successful and win. He’s a really cool dude. Real. Normal. What the party needs. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Mark Rutte, NATO’s Secretary General, was asked yesterday about Trump’s public threat to kill every single person living in Iran. He wouldn’t comment on it. Instead, he flattered Trump. How are bad men able to do bad things? Because good men are too afraid to act. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Every war Iran fights is a holy war, I mean, that’s what that Islamist theocracy is and does. Well, it turns out our current administration is all about holy wars too, and it turns out, Trump launched his war against Iran as a holy war, in the name of white Christian nationalism.

This morning, he made a public threat to end Iranian civilization tonight. Anyone surprised by this has not been paying attention. We have a madman in the White House. And as long as my former party remain cowards, the madman will remain in the White House. The rest of us are called to resist him at every turn and defeat him and my former party in every election.

Trump’s Easter morning post was deranged. And he once again threatened to commit war crimes. But it was just the latest thing this senile sociopath has done. And he continues to do things like this bcuz we hold him to such a low standard. We treat him like a child. The American people have to decide character matters again. And they may not decide that ever again. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/pr...

I sat down with long time venture capitalist and author & producer Ted Dintersmith to talk about all things education, AI, who needs to go to college and who doesn’t, math, and his new book coming out next week “Aftermath: The Life-changing Math That Schools Won’t Teach You.” Fascinating conversation.

We ARE dangerously divided. We’re at the point now where most Americans hate the people they disagree with. Consider the people they disagree with to be their “enemy.” So…are we even willing to listen to each other anymore? I’m gonna take this next year to find out the answer to that question. It’s called the Hope, Not Fear Project. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Not at all a surprise, Trump’s war is a fucking disaster, he doesn’t know what he’s doing, he’s looking for a way out, so he’s going to claim “victory” and make the rest of the world clean up after his mess - make the rest of the world open up the Strait of Hormuz, the strait that he closed. This has been what Trump has done his entire life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more informat...

Evil. What other word would you use to describe a President of the United States who denies most disaster relief requests from Democratic-led states. No other President has ever done that. No other President would ever think about doing that. Well, Trump is actually doing it. That’s just good old fashioned evil. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A famous musician is going to tour all year this year to raise awareness against Trump. And another celebrity, upon learning this, called the musician a “douche.” That’s messed up. Automatically thinking the worst of and hating the people we disagree with is why our democracy is teetering right now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I sat down with Rachel Janfanza, founder of The Up And Up, to see where Gen Z is at 14 months into Trump’s presidency. Interesting conversation and a number of surprises. Gen Z does not care for either political party. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Every day, the military and Trump’s advisors show him a 2-3 minute video of us blowing up shit in Iran. They show him a video, no written briefing of the war, of only the “good stuff.” They treat him like a child. This is so dangerous. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It’s the largest fee fraud in the history of America’s immigration system…the U.S. government collected over $1billion in immigration fees and then refused to process the applications. No denials. No refunds. Nothing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We’ve not been here before. An American President who initiated a war and, because he lies as he breathes, the American people really don’t know what’s going on in this war. They have to go to sources other than the president to get at the truth. Obviously, this is a bad and dangerous place to be. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
