In communities across the U.S., from small towns to big cities, there used to be a lot more places like the ol’ neighborhood bar. It was a place you could come after work, to talk with your friends & neighbors about the news of the day, to have a few laughs, and maybe a few drinks.
In those days, you could even talk about politics a little bit without causing a bar brawl. These days, the people in our personal communities are often spread from coast to coast and around the world. And while it’s great to see ‘em on social media, it would be better to have a place where the bartenders knew your name, and you could trust the folks in your community would be there with the latest news and drink or two.
So we’ve created a place like that here – and you’re invited. Come on in, pull up a chair, grab something to drink, and we’ll get up to speed with the news of the day, at The Politics Bar.

The news for today & this week has been filled with craziness, especially with the illegitimate actions of SCOTUS. Thankfully, we’ve got Glenn Kirschner stopping by to tackle the legal stuff, & with Karen & Anita from Tru Blu Politics podcast (and on Patreon too) to handle the crazy stuff.

We love it when Dems win & there was a lot of that last night, as you can see in today’s News On Tap. But all the mainstream media wants is for Democratic voters to fight each other.
