After the Supreme Court struck down Donald Trump’s tariffs, he detonated. He targeted justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett, fuming that the ruling was an “embarrassment to their families.” He doubled down on the idea that he has unilateral tar... more

Thank you all for your insightful, independent news. I look forward to it every morning. Your sports-betting ads are certainly pushing me towards an ad-free subscription. The volume of which is too loud and the heavy metal music (and frankly the advertised product) stands in stark contrast to the tenor of the program. Keep on keeping on, and thanks again.
Alright, I’m not a poli-sci major nor someone who can catch up on all the things going on in/related to DC . That being said, I know FTA can mean a few things: Fair Trade Agreement, Fed Travel Advisory…but the contents of each “FTA” episode aren’t necessarily related to those topics. One clue is that all those episode episodes were previously released. But I just can’t come up with other than that the F may stand for Formerly. Help!

I get that it’s the holiday season and you guys need a break from making new content, but as a new listener, it’s ridiculous that I have to scroll through dozens of re-releases to find fresh/relevant content. I’d rather just not have content for a few weeks. Re-releases are lazy and annoying. Wanted to listen but after several minutes, couldn’t find anything that wasn’t an irrelevant rerun.
The idea of that people who vote democratic are unhappy with the Democratic Party is laughable. The Democratic Party is not limited to whom may join. These people who are unhappy are welcome to join their local and County democratic organizations. They can pitch in and help.They can offer their ideas. They can knock on doors with us. They can support. They can influence the work of a local Democratic club. Why are they standing on the sideline? Come, help us. We welcome you to our committees.
I’m a recently converted subscriber. I really like the experts they bring on particularly the military generals, for their honest opinions.
There’s a casualness and honesty that I really appreciate in their shows.
I don’t always listen to their episodes about headlines, because if you regularly read the news, you would know most of these stories. I prefer the deep dives.
