  • Chuck you are 100% wrong about more party(s)

    Chuck,

    Your theorem that we need more party(s) is bad math and dangerously wrong with our current Constitution.

    My head explodes when I hear well educated people that should know better say more party(s) are the answer; WITHOUT addressing the need to make sure the winner is a majority of the vote winner i,e., 50% plus a feather. This is a critical point always overlooked or just ignored by the pied pipers of the more party(s) gang.

    Having more party(s) will make matters worse.

    It allows p... more

  • Liberals live on Earth 2

    As someone who voted against Trump twice, the lunatic left pushed me into voting for Trump. Guess what? Not a single regret 💯

    Let’s be clear…..

    The Progressive Wing of the Democratic Party don’t give a Ef about Goode & Pretti getting smoked in Minnesota. They’re just “Tools for the Revolution”

    If the Democrats don’t throw the Progressive Wing under the bus, this country is cooked. How do you think Nick Fuentes got so popular? The Progressive Fatigue is Real 💯

  • ICE

    You still think ICE shouldn’t be abolished? Who in this administration will rein it in? Three more years of this will lead to more murders and mayhem.

Full Episode - Trump’s Coalition Is Fracturing As Iran War Unravels + Who Is Responsible For The Death Of Roe?
Q: What made you choose the murder mystery framing for Killers of Roe?
Littlefield says the framing helps humanize a long, complex history by focusing on the behind-the-scenes people and the sequence of events that led to the Dobbs decision, making a difficult topic more accessible.
Interview Only w/Brad Carson - AI Needs Serious Regulation & Serious Regulators
Q: What should the regulatory approach to AI look like at the state vs. federal level?
Support for state-level experimentation with a light-touch federal framework that allows common-sense guardrails and adaptive regulation over time.
Interview Only w/Brad Carson - AI Needs Serious Regulation & Serious Regulators
Q: Why is there tension around funding in the current political environment around AI regulation?
There is money flowing from a small circle of donors influencing AI regulation, which raises concerns about who shapes policy.
Interview Only w/Brad Carson - AI Needs Serious Regulation & Serious Regulators
Q: Tell me about Americans for Responsible Innovation and who's funding it.

Interview Only w/ Amy Littlefield - Who Is Responsible For The Death Of Roe?
Q: What ownership do abortion rights advocates take for how Roe fell?
Most acknowledge flaws in legal rationale but emphasize that the fall was primarily due to years of organized anti-abortion political power, strategic framing, and the built grassroots infrastructure that shifted politics over time.
