    AG, you are like a praying mantis mixed with a mongoose when it comes to keeping up on our leadership class. What do you think about the idea of expanding the U.S. Congress? It was capped in 1929 during a corrupt time (by corrupt Republicans) in our nation. Isn’t it time to undo this “century of sadness” and to reestablish representative democracy?

    About 525,600 minutes in a year, but over 700,000 people to represent, so not even a minute per person, even if your representative was robo-cop or ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Refried Beans | GUILTY (feat John Fugelsang) | 5.31.2024 Friday, May 31st, 2024
Q: What are your initial thoughts on the verdict and its significance for the rule of law?
The hosts express that the verdict represents a victory for accountability and the rule of law, while acknowledging ongoing political ramifications and the potential impact on public trust and future legal proceedings.
SCOTUS Sanctioned Racism (feat. Ericka Kopp)
Q: Can you tell us about your opponents and what makes you different from your Democratic opponents in this primary?
Ericka Kopp explains her platform as the most expansive progressive agenda in the field, with a strong emphasis on accountability, town halls, and a rigorous approach to impeachable offenses and ethics reform, positioning her as distinct from other candidates who may be more conventional or less focused on accountability mechanisms.
Refried Beans | TACOs And Gumbo (feat. Adam Klasfeld) | 5.29.2025 Thursday, May 29th, 2025
Q: What is the core issue Judge Leon addresses in the gumbo ruling?
The core issue is whether the executive order targeting Wilmer Hale constitutes a nakedly retaliatory and unconstitutional action, warranting striking down the entire order rather than allowing partial amendments, because the vendetta against the law firm undermines due process and First Amendment protections.
Trump Goes After Carroll (feat. Emma Davidson, Sarah Higginbotham)
Q: What role do anti-SLAPP protections play for survivors, and why is campaign-finance reform part of the picture?
Anti-SLAPP protections help survivors tell their stories without facing defamation lawsuits, enabling more reporting and accountability; campaign-finance reform is crucial to prevent abusive individuals from weaponizing funds to harass or silence survivors and to ensure accountability is not undermined by money in politics.
Trump Goes After Carroll (feat. Emma Davidson, Sarah Higginbotham)
Q: What are the key reforms the National Women's Defense League is advocating for to prevent harassment in Congress?
A multi-pronged approach including stronger ongoing harassment training, faster and safer reporting processes, third-party oversight to reduce conflicts of interest, ongoing transparency and evaluation, and policies that move beyond token measures to actual protections for survivors.
