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.

It's a 'Family Show' at The Politics Bar tonight - just Jody & Shawn with some of your comments & voicemails - and of course, today’s News On Tap, which is filled with hope & celebration, along with stupidity & halfascism. From Juneteenth & the Obama Center, to loser Trump's humiliation by Iran, we’re talking about all of it. Join us!

On a day with such stark contrasts in the news - a choice between the losers, cowards, & corruption of the Trump/Vance regime, or the hope & progress of the Obama coalition - it's always helpful to talk with your friends to keep your head straight. So we're glad John Fugelsang is stopping by the bar tonight. Grab a drink & join us!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Grampy Trump made a huge fool of himself today at the G7, with his mumbling & stumbling about the Iran memo. We’ve got the details (what details there are) in today’s News On Tap.

One of our favorite podcasters & rabble rousers, Cliff Schecter of Blue Amp Media, is back at the bar tonight!

It was a weekend of collective joy - especially for Knicks fans like Brooklyn Dad Defiant, but also NHL fans, World Cup fans, and fans of Trump’s name getting ripped off the Kennedy center.
