High-Speed Trains Coming to Maine??? | in the clear episode 184
President Biden:" We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to position Amtrak — and rail in general — to play a central role in our transportation and economic future. To make the investments that can help get America back on track. That’s exactly what the American Jobs Plan will do." Advocates for expansion of passenger train service in Maine believe this is their time. The potential of the railroads owned by the taxpayers of the State of Maine hold the promise of an advanced passenger train system that will deal with Climate Change, boost economic equity and move Maine into a more prosperous and sustainable future. There is a good reason the Legislature is addressing so many good rail bills this year. Preparing for expansion of passenger trains, every legislature since the 1980s has taken steps to accomplish the goal. This year the 130th Maine State Legislature can take this over the top. There is a detailed service plan with recommendations for passenger train service to Lewiston. LD 991 An Act…., will complete that plan and evaluate the economic impacts in jobs and housing in the communities selected for train stations. (since they did not etc.)The Amtrak Downeaster passenger operating along the coast to Brunswick is where the state owns 55 of 100 miles to Augusta, Waterville, and Bangor. LD 227 Will provide state and local decision-makers with information on this valuable transportation corridor and the likelihood it too can be restored for passenger trains. State ownership of railroads in the west, 55 miles Portland to Nh, in the East with the 40 miles from Bangor to Acadia and 88 miles into Eastport are included in other important rail bills. The opportunity to match federal funding has never been closer. There is no time to waste. Neither Washington nor the Climate are going to wait. Maine has done its homework, it owns the railroads. Maine knows how to run a successful passenger train service. It is time for rail in Maine.

The lies regarding election fraud have gotten completely out of control to the point corporations are being affected by these lies. Now voting machine companies are eying to get financial payback for all the lost business they have received because of the negligent reporting from right-wing media moguls. Where can Fox News go from here? Will they be able to last now that one third of their audience has been lost?

Gamestonk: 99% of People Are Laughing | in the clear #163
It is a sad day to know that 46% of Americans do not believe mainstream news outlets. That being said, I cannot blame them when we have witnessed a week of bootlicking trying to defend the billionaire class against the Redditors who are destroying in the Gamestonk War. Listen to us give advice to billionaires as they lose billions of dollars for reasons that I wish I could make up.

Gamestonk: Robin Hood Patch 1.1 | in the clear #162
If you ever played a glitchy video game, you may have encountered a patch to make said game less glitchy. That is typically a good thing. recently Robin Hood (own by Citadel who also owns Melvin Capital) released a patch that made the stock "game" easier for the veteran players who win all the time and harder for the new players who realized how the stock "game" worked. If a game developer did that to their player base, you might guess that the developer would be heavily scrutinized; and you would be absolutely right! Join in on this fun adventure as we tackle what it means to be a stonk expert these days.

The prodigal child of the neoliberal Democratic Party returns to be showered with eventual praise as years of neglect on America's infrastructure will, almost certainly, be addressed during Biden's term as president. these changes will occur regardless of who the secretary is, but it sure would be great to set up the establishment's favorite young honky-dorey neoliberal for the hand-me-down success to run for President at some point in the future.

The Establishment Attacks Yang for His Stance On . . . Circumcision. Why? | in the clear #155
The establishment is already coming after outsiders seeking major offices. Andrew Yang is likely to cast a mayoral bid for New York City, which is a large enough municipality to apply a lot of his forward-thinking ideas. However, the establishment is not all that happy or excited about Yang, and have decided to address some early criticisms against Yang. What are they going after Yang for? Is it policies related to automation, or monthly dividends, technological growth, or something infinitely more interesting to talk about? Nope; they're talking about baby dicks . . .

Biden: A President We Didn't Deserve (Or Want), But We'll Take Him! | in the clear #154
Fascism lost! WOOOOOO! Now we can go back to standardized Neoliberal leadership! YAY! In all seriousness, while this upcoming administration will have its multitude of issues that we at "in the clear" will certainly address, yesterday marks a major achievement for Democracy. Defeating Trump's attempt to steal the election via voter suppression and by force is a first step to repair so much of the damage caused by his administration. And, while no progressive is excited about this administration, progressives, for the first time in a long time, will have the ear of people in power. We will not achieve everything that is part of our agenda, but we will be able to apply more successful pressure to neoliberals and the flawed capitalist system to the point our message will only grow stronger with every new voice that gets added to the cause ©2020 Commoner Public Radio Network.

Left vs. Right: Why is it so hard to reach across the aisle? | in the clear #151
America is finally coming to an understanding that the polarization of the two major political-ideological divides are so out of sync with one another that people are no genuinely debating what is the current reality we exist in. How do you convince someone who truly believes that Communism has taken over this country? How can you have a productive dialogue with someone who believes Joe Biden is a Chinese puppet? For the most part, the Capitol Riot has proved the right-wing, as a whole, no longer fact-checks their own stances anymore. Belief without hubris is a dangerous formula, and that is the formula of everyone who stormed the Capitol to overthrow the government.

With Trump impeached a second time for insurrection charges we cannot forget that 147 Republicans are still in favor of subverting the will of the people to elect Joe Biden and are in favor of the fascist coup.
