How Conservatives Ruined Marriage16 Sep 202400:27:37

JD Vance wants childless cat ladies everywhere to drop the feminist pretenses and just get married and procreate already! Conservatives across the country are advocating for an end to no fault divorces to try to make divorce harder and, therefore, increase the sanctity of marriage and traditional families. But their plans, which are laid out in detail in Project 2025, will back fire. It's all in an attempt to grasp for more power and undo 50 years of women's rights.

How The Right Rebranded Eugenics09 Aug 202400:29:26

The right, with Donald Trump at the head, has rebranded eugenics for the 21st century, bringing age old bigotry to the mainstream again and saying the quiet part out loud. Immigration, contraception, and more are up for debate in a race to protect America from the "undesirables."

JD Vance is owned by tech billionaires who are members of the New Right and will stop at nothing to dismantle the government and do away with democracy for good. Trump was just the beginning.

Blame THIS GUY For The Awful Supreme Court Rulings This Term24 Jul 202400:33:25

Leonard Leo didn't found the Federalist Society. He's never sat at the top of its leadership. This guy doesn't really DO anything. But he's the man who greases the right palms and has the right connections and everyone who wants to be anyone in the GOP knows they have to get on his good side. He has been involved in every conservative supreme court nominee for decades and is to blame for the absolute h*llscape we're currently living in.

Biden Steps Down: What Happens Next?22 Jul 202400:33:29

President Biden has officially announced he will not accept the Democratic nomination for president in 2024, leaving the party to scramble to regroup just days before the Democratic National Convention is set to begin in Chicago.

How Powerful Is The Vice President?17 Jul 202400:29:42

Throughout history, the United States Vice President has often played a pretty insignificant role, but the power of the VP grew in the 20th century, culminating with Dick Cheney. Lately, VPs have once again felt rather insignificant, but with Trump's latest announcement of his VP pick in JD Vance, someone who has said he would have done what Mike Pence wouldn't on January 6th, who touts much of the same talking points as Project 2025, and who is seen by many as the next generation to carry the MAGA legacy, the question is warranted: how much power does the Vice President even have?

The Most Important Supreme Court Case This Term (It's Not Presidential Immunity)16 Jul 202400:39:26

RIP Chevron Deference--In Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, the Supreme Court made a major power grab while also opening the floodgates of legal challenges that will lead to the dismantling of every federal agency and all their regulations--from aviation safety to food quality and beyond.

How Trump Is Profiting From Being A Criminal03 Jul 202400:29:39

Trump is DEEP in debt for his various legal liabilities, but how is he paying for all of this? Why is the RNC paying his bills? How is he collecting on his criminal cases and taking his followers for all they're worth? How is this all legal??

Why We Lost The War On Drugs30 Jun 202400:43:31

We've been fighting the War on Drugs for over 50 years now, and it's only gotten worse. Even with Obama officially retiring the phrase "War On Drugs" that was just symbolic, we're still fighting the same fight we always have, but not against an even more formidable enemy: the opioid epidemic. And we're losing.

How Ginni Thomas Ruined The Supreme Court04 Sep 202400:24:06

Ginni Thomas, wife of Clarence Thomas, reportedly thanked a conservative religious group for pushing against Supreme Court reform last month. This is just the latest in a decades-long habit of inappropriate (impeachable??) behavior by Ginni Thomas, who's made her entire personality revolve around sticking it to her many "haters."

Why Progressives Are Bad At Organizing (with Rep. Ruwa Romman!)26 Aug 202400:24:01

Project 2025 is a well-organized vision for a conservative future put together by 100 different conservative orgs. Why don't we have anything like that on the left? While Kamala Harris has added much needed excitement to the Democratic Party, my internet echo chambers are still full of progressives feeling more divided than ever.

Election Deniers Are Ruining Democracy14 Aug 202400:17:44

Election deniers in Georgia have made it easier for election officials to vote against certifying election results. This is part of a larger scheme by Trump and his allies to delegitimize elections in America. This is how election denying election officials are ruining democracy.

Why Groceries Are SO Expensive (And How Trump Will Make It Worse)25 Sep 202400:23:33

JD Vance blamed Kamala Harris for $4 eggs this week (they were actually $2.99). But one thing he's not lying about is that grocery store inflation is very real. How did we get here? Why is our food system so monopolized? And which candidate will ACTUALLY address the issue of price gouging at the grocery store?

How Republicans Will Steal This Election30 Sep 202400:23:48

Republicans and Donald Trump are already laying the ground work for election deniers to question the results of the 2024 election, which hasn't even happened yet. Through nearly 90 frivolous lawsuits, plus all of Trump's lies, they're sowing the seeds of doubt ahead of time to make their job after the election even easier. This is how Republicans will steal this election. Please vote in November so this doesn't happen!!!

Helene Was Just The Beginning If Trump Wins In November07 Oct 202400:21:28

The destruction from Hurricane Helene is just beginning to be calculated, with over 230 lives lost and billions of dollars in recovery ahead. Republicans and Trump are using this storm to politicize FEMA, the administrative state, and, yes, even immigration. But it's all a distraction from the fact that their own policies led to this level of disaster. And a second Trump presidency would only seal the deal.

All The Lies From The VP Debate02 Oct 202400:24:59

This one was painful to watch, y'all. And the most disturbing thing is not Walz's flubs but actually how well JD Vance can articulate Trump policies in a way that sounds vaguely palatable. This is likely a taste of what's to come from a Republican party seeking new leaders to move beyond Trump. And it's scary.

Christian Nationalist "TheoBros" Want To Take Over Government23 Oct 202400:23:34

A network of ultra-right Christian Nationalists that make the Moral Majority look like child's play are working to take over the US government and JD Vance is their perfect Trojan Horse. These men want the rule of law to be based on the 10 commandments, to rescind women's right to vote, and to finally create "one nation, under [one] God." This is some Handmaid's Tale realness that is giving un-American theocracy. And they are lapping up everything JD Vance is saying.

Habeas Corpus Has Already Been Suspended For Some29 May 202500:20:18

When habeas corpus, the right to challenge your detention, is suspended for some of us, that creates an opening for the writ to slowly be denied to more and more of us. While Stephen Miller announces that the Trump administration is "looking into it" and Kristi Noem can't seem to define it, we are all left to watch as the writ is blatantly eroded, despite judicial rulings and precedent.

'Big, Beautiful' Medicaid Cuts, Explained21 May 202500:18:37

The House GOP and Speaker Mike Johnson are fast-tracking a Big, Beautiful reconciliation bill that is over 1100 pages long onto the House floor. The bill would represent the largest cut to Medicaid since it was created in 1965 and could lead to loss of coverage for millions of Americans, in part due to new work requirements that would add onerous red tape to the program.

Trump Takes Aim At Sanctuary Cities05 May 202500:24:42

You might have missed a couple consequential Executive Orders last week in the mayhem of our current news cycle.

1. Call Your AG (Blue State Defiance)

2. Protest (50501 or Tesla Takedown)

A 4 year old US-born child with stage 4 cancer is the latest target to be deported without due process, along with two other US-born children and their undocumented mothers. Trump officials blame the mothers, because of course. PLUS: Congressional Democrats might (??) be ready to put up a fight, civilians get armed, and law students fight back.

This Court Just Put The Trump Regime In Its Place | News You Missed18 Apr 202500:23:02

All the news you missed this week, including: Trump has set his sights on watchdog groups and nonprofits, seeking to punish them by removing their tax exempt status. Also, Kilmar Abrego Garcia meets with Senator Van Hollen in what is almost certainly a photo op meant to downplay the severity of the conditions in CECOT. Also, the Supreme Court has agreed to hear arguments in the birthright citizenship case, which should give us all cause for concern!!

The Constitutional Showdown Has Arrived16 Apr 202500:26:41

With Judge Boasberg finding probable cause to hold the Trump administration in contempt of court and Judge Xinis, who's presiding over the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, eyeing sanctions as well, there is no doubt that the Trump administration has openly defied court orders at this point. What remains unknown is what happens next. We are all watching with bated breath to see if the Trump administration respects any judicial authority at all, or if we have reached a point where judicial orders no longer hold any sway over the regime. Something tells me it will be a secret, but also bad, third thing.
