Policy Disagreements Are Okay. Disagreeing About Democracy Is Not
I gotta be honest, as a new Democrat, I don’t care that much right now about where we disagree on healthcare policy or border policy. We can figure all of that out down the road once we preserve our democracy, once we secure the rule of law. That makes sense, right? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I’m Now A Democrat. And Republicans Are Still A Cowardly Mess
Yesterday, I uttered 3 words I never ever thought I would utter - “I’m A Democrat.” Why? Easy. Only one of our two political parties embraces freedom, democracy and the rule of law. And it’s not my former political party. So to best defeat my former political party, I became a Democrat. And btw…my former party is fighting with themselves again over that “big, beautiful” bill.

It’s A Scary Time To Be A Jew In America
Once again, a violent act of antisemitism in America. Once again, Jews in America were targeted in an attempted terror attack. This is so wrong. No matter where you are on the situation in Gaza, every America must condemn what happened yesterday in Boulder, CO. And every American should stand with our Jewish brothers and sisters.

Elon Didn’t Do A Damn Thing About The Debt. But He Sure Destroyed Countless Lives
After 4 months, Elon is gone. Sort of. And what did DOGE accomplish? A lot of lives destroyed and a lot of starving and dead children around the world. But DOGE has had ZERO impact on the debt. ZERO impact. Also, a final look at my face to face conversation with Maze Jackson, black activist on Chicago’s South Side. Today…what about the black people? Hosted on Acast.

Rahm Emanuel Is Right, and Rahm Emanuel is also Wrong
Rahm Emmanuel says the Democratic Brand is toxic. He’s right. But his answer is Dems must only talk about economic issues. He’s wrong. Also, yes, Trump lies all the time, but Democrats could also learn from him when it comes to accessibility. And…every day, we are disappearing people off of our streets. Without due process. That’s really wrong. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Conversations With Americans: Democrats & Black Men
My face to face conversations with the American people took me to the south side of Chicago and a conversation with a long time political activist and advocate for black people, Maze Jackson. A fascinating conversation, today regarding black men. Also, speaking of men, Trump is the antithesis of a real man. That and more, today. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Today Is Not A Happy Day. It’s A Somber Day. It’s A Day to Contemplate Sacrifice
Memorial Day, 2025. Today is a sad day, a day of remembering lives cut short, cut ridiculously short. Today is about lives not fully lived, love not fully realized, careers not fully pursued, promise not fully fulfilled. Think of those lives cut short today. Take a moment today, during the family celebrations & barbecues, take just a moment and give a thought to and a prayer for those lives cut short. Hosted on Acast.
