I’m Glad It Happened. Because The World Now Knows Trump Stands With Putin
Trump stands with Putin. He always has. But because that’s such a horrible truth, most of the world has understandably had a really difficult time accepting that truth. Until Friday. Friday made it crystal clear for all to see. And now the world knows that, as long as Trump is in the White House, America is not on the side of the free world. So damn sad. Hosted on Acast.

Yes, Trump Lies When He Speaks. But Democrats Avoid Speaking
Democrats need to learn from Trump. Trump puts himself in front of a camera every day. Because this is all just a show to Trump. And Trump had always been about the marketing. That’s it. And when he’s in front of the camera, he lies. All the time. But Democrats have missed the boat here. They’re still playing by the old, cautious politician rules. They’re afraid of the open give and take. That’s gotta change. Fast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

James Carville Is Wrong. Dead Wrong
I’m so sick and tired of the old establishment media putting these old establishment Democratic consultants on to bestow us with their old establishment wisdom. Fuck that. These guys are out of touch and Democrats need to stop listening to them. Democrats shouldn’t “roll over and play dead right now as Carville said. They should fight. Hosted on Acast.

What Should Democrats Do? Run To The Left Or Run To The Center? A Conversation
I sat down with progressive writer and thinker Jeet Heer to discuss what Democrats need to do to pull together an anti-Trump majority and win again. Trump didn’t win by a lot, but Democrats have real issues and need to make real decisions. Jeet and I don’t really agree on the direction Dems must go, but we agree Dems need to win. Because MAGA is a real threat to this country. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Trump Is Making America Less Safe & Less Secure Every Single Day
Because Trump believes our FBI, and DOJ, and Military, and intelligence community are all the enemy, he’s put people in charge of these agencies & departments who want to destroy them. From Trump’s perspective, it makes all the sense in the world. But from America’s perspective, it makes us way less safe and less secure. But we shouldn’t be surprised. He told us he’d do this.

I’m An American. I Have A Right To Call Elon Musk A Dick
Earlier this week, JD Vance criticized our European allies for getting weak on protecting free speech. Two days later, JD’s administration sent a threatening letter to a Congressman hinting at a DOJ investigation into his criticisms of Elon Musk & Trump. This is ugly government free speech intimidation. Hey JD, what about free speech in America? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Don’t Blame Trump For Lying All The Time. Blame His Supporters
Trump lies almost every time he opens his mouth. And I stopped saying shame on Trump for lying a long time ago. Now I say shame on his supporters for allowing Trump to lie to them. Trump’s lying is on them, not him. And btw, We Americans will never get back a healthy democracy if we don’t demand a semblance of truth from the politicians who represent us. Hosted on Acast.
