On June 18, Trump’s Justice Department issued a memo claiming that federal disability laws don’t require state level integration, guidance in direct conflict with the 1999 Supreme Court Olmstead decision. This memo must not stand. Time for Congress to codify into law the Olmstead decision. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A lot of talk these days about certain people who “hate” America, and the right is going to town on certain elements of the left that clearly don’t like America. And there are folks on the left who despise what America is. But nobody hates America more than someone who loses an election and refuses to accept the results. No one hates America more than someone who opposes our founding principles. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

My younger socialist friend and I chatted again this week, focused especially on the problems of homelessness, addiction, and mental health, what to do, what not to do, what if anything government should do. We agreed that letting these folks hang in public spaces isn’t the answer, we looked for a better term than “institutionalize.” Neat conversation Hosted on Acast.

From the moment he was sworn in, he’s been stuffing his pockets with money and his family has been stuffing their pockets with money…to the tune of billions. We’ve never seen anything like it. He singlehandedly fucked up the economy, he illegally took this country to war, and he’s desecrating the people’s house. And along the way, he’s personally enriching himself. He doesn’t care about you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I sat down with Brian Karem, longtime political journalist & reporter to try to make sense of where we’re at - what’s Trump really up to? Is Trump really all there? Why has today’s media utterly normalized him? And…what the heck is the Democratic Party doing/and where are they heading? Interesting conversation. Hosted on Acast.

A conversation with Genia Simkin, who runs samizdatonline.org, an organization dedicated to getting independent reporting into the hands of people who live in countries where the government controls what information people are allowed to see. It’s difficult work, but it’s an important, necessary cause. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trump threw a 250th anniversary State Fair in DC this weekend and nobody showed up. I mean nobody. It’s super easy to make fun of, but the whole thing is sad. Trump has ruined our 250th. He’s humanly incapable of unifying this country. And so the American people will celebrate our 250th not as one unified country. But as a divided, siloed, balkanized country. Hosted on Acast.
