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.

If the news seems extra chaotic in U.S. politics right now, it's not just you. From the Right’s attempted election theft, to Trump's war in Iran, to Republicans pushing Trump’s ballroom, it’s all confusing & frustrating. Still, it's important to stay involved & informed - which is why THE Dayna Steele is stopping by.

It's Monday - and Jody is back! Which is great for us, since there's a lot of news to talk about. We’ll talk about the Confederacy rising up again, the Right's war on women, Trump's failing war in Iran, & more. Plus, Brooklyn Dad Defiant is also back tonight. Grab a drink & join us.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Thanks to the unjust Supreme Court, the bad old days may be back, electorally. But good Americans are ready to stand up & fight back. Two more of our friends are in the bar to fill in for Jody tonight, Richard Chew & John Fugelsang (Notice - it takes TWO men to fill in for one woman).

Some days it's harder than others to talk about the news - for example, on days when the illegitimate Supreme Court effectively neuters the Voting Rights Act. It helps to go through the news when you're joined by smart & funny friends, as we are tonight as Charlie Pierce & Bob Cesca stop by the bar.

It was a busy weekend - & more news happened than just a disrupted media party in DC. Tonight, we’ll talk about the WHCD incident & why they can’t legitimately use it to push for that stupid ballroom. Plus Trump's war in Iran, the Restricting Wars, & more.
