The show’s weekly roundup used to be my favorite news podcast of the week. Over past 1+ years, the show has become very one-note around the surveillance state, eschewing discussion about a multitude of issues. Unsubscribed recently

I was one of the original listeners that came over from the Lincoln project days. For context, I’m an independent from Texas and this podcast was a place where I found community and a balanced experience of information. Listen, I am all for challenging your own views and trying to understand complex issues but over the past year, I can barely make it through an episode without feeling like I’m listening to Trump apologists. This show just needs an honest branding. It’s no longer a study of poli... more

Claimed that the winner of the Michigan democratic primary is part of the DSA. Abdul Al Sayid has stated publicly he is not, and many of his policies as much. He’s clearly for America, universal healthcare, fair taxes on corporations and the ultra wealthy, and so on.
Tragic that the Lincoln project went from fighting the Trump nightmare back to doing the work for Republicans. Disinformation and conflations could mean the difference between winning and losing in the senate, and repeating talkin... more

I appreciate the voices and perspectives from along the political spectrum.Lately there have been a lot of repeat episodes. I appreciate the new hosts. I want to point out one thing: Ron Steslow dragged Heather Cox Richardson specifically. Just disregarded her entirely. I guess because he disagrees? But Politicology comes out of the Lincoln Project, which was calling out Trump, and yet Ron Steslow disregards someone who is doing the same thing, so make of that what you will.
