Episodes

  1. Potential Charges Against Donald Trump

    The U.S. congressional committee probing the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol has sought via hearings this month to build a case that then-President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn his 2020 electoral defeat amounted to illegal conduct. The question in our minds, those that want to see...

  2. Trump's Fake Electors

  3. Ron Desanti's Problem With Math Textbooks

    So, Desantis claims that publishers use math textbooks to indoctrinate elementary school students with "race essentialism," which is how right-wing activists characterize CRT.

    Truth Social was conceived for conservatives as a Trump-approved alternative to Twitter, free of censorship & "cancel culture," but with the added "benefit" of Donald Trump actively participating on the platform.

  8. Wisconsin GOP Leader Refuses to Turn Over Audit Documents

    If you recall some months back, I covered the Arizona Audit perhaps twice, I will try to post the link at the top to that video. This entire nonsense about alleged fraud in our elections was sowed in North Carolina in part by the efforts of Lin Wood and his team of criminal confidants, and…

  16. MTG Says Racism Ended but Now Back in Education

    Marjorie Taylor Greene says racism has ended in this country but is now back via education public schools. If racism has indeed ended, why did Democrats find it necessary to try and pass a Voting Rights Act? Why did Republicans oppose it, and why did they pass voter suppression bills instead?
