Jan 6th: We Don't Need No Stinkin' Commission

Crimes, from treason to murder, were committed that day, and crime-fighters need to locate and prosecute the traitorous, treasonous criminals America needs and deserves to find out what happened on and in the time leading up to the January 6th attempt to overthrow our country.

Is Genocide for Political Purposes Treason?

This bizarre conspiracy theory now threatens democracy itself - can it be stopped? News that the Johnson & Jackson vaccine can cause blood clots in about one in 1 million women under 50 has exploded across the social media world. Republicans, along with countries that hate America, are smiling. A fellow who runs a couple of communities on a popular social media site called into my program yesterday saying that the vaccine news had caused an "absolute explosion" of vaccine denialism. People who'd been on the fence are now outright opposed to getting the jab. And Trump and the GOP are making hay with the announcement.

Oligarchs Con White Bois

Republicans and "white nationalists" are playing with fire in their efforts to end democracy.

A really good first-quarter haul for a freshman member of Congress who’s actually getting things done would be $250,000 to a half million dollars. Greene blew the doors out. But why?

Joe Manchin: Want American Businesses to Invest in West Virginia?

Raise their corporate income tax rate! Most Americans, when they hear that President Joe Biden wants to raise the corporate income tax to 28% to pay for his infrastructure plan, think that means that every business in America is suddenly going to be hit with some kind of surcharge. That couldn’t be further from the truth.

Radical Republicans Reach Out From the Grave: Congress Must Expel Some Members and Punish States

The 14th Amendment gives us tools that haven’t been used in over a century. Four days after President Donald Trump and several members of Congress incited an angry mob to attack the Capitol and overturn an election he’d lost by over 7 million votes, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi sent a note to her Democratic colleagues. She called for Vice President Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment, to begin a new impeachment process, and wrapped the memo up by saying “Your views on the 25th Amendment, 14th Amendment Section 3, and impeachment are valued as we continue.”

GOP "Cancel Culture" has its Guns Blazing Against Democracy

Their target is anything that isn’t white, male or associated with a gun So let me get this straight. Republicans tried to cancel democracy in Georgia, and got called out on it. So now they’re trying to cancel Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines. All of this, according to Fox News, has something to do with “left-wing cancel culture.”
