Matthew Hoh (https://www.matthewhohforsenate.org/) joins us to talk about his platform and the big reasons he’s running for U.S. Senate for North Carolina. He’s a veteran of three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, resigning in protest in 2010 as a Marine officer. We get into real fixes on the wars, the economy, healthcare, his experience in combat, the whole gamut. All that’s needed is the will to do these things. Who does that will serve now? Mr. Hoh is a recipient of the Ridenhour Award and a senior fellow at the Center for International Policy.

Now, that Elon Musk bought Twitter, I thought it’d be good to remind people that social media is not just a “business and they can do whatever they want.”

Just out of Facebook “jail,” Abe gets into what some may refer to as a hot take. Are online companies with government contracts in violation of 1A rights when they de-platform, de-monetize or ban speech? Since when are taxpayer dollars to go to contractors, acting on behalf of the government to surveil us, and then ban us from the public square? An earlier episode was entitled Alex Jones Can Still Flush a Toilet. Think about it.

We get into a play by play of how Democratic administrations get away with infinitely more than a Republican administration can. We compare Reagan/Bush I to Clinton, to Bush II, to Obama and finally Trump to Biden. Is anyone noticing how Biden and his policies (with little exception) are merely an extension and acceleration of Trump’s policies? How the so-called liberal can say they’re happy with Biden and the so-called conservative can think Biden is a communist is laughable. All of these observations and points will guarantee that you too can be no fun at parties…

Friend of the show, and medical veteran, Dr. Joe Jarvis (https://americanhealthsecurityproject.org/) joins us to talk about the state of the union in American healthcare. We get into the state by state movements that are happening because that’s how Medicare for all is going to happen. The money is there. 20% of U.S. GDP is spent on healthcare, it’s simply not helping the American taxpayer. In addition to being on the national steering committee for the American Health Security Project, Dr. Jarvis has been practicing medicine for over 30 years and was a state health officer in Nevada. He is the author of the Purple World and the forthcoming the Hurt of My People.

Now that the case for mandates is approaching a fever pitch, it’s safe to say the American Electorate is being had again. Just like g**s, guns, and abortion, mandates are fast becoming the litmus for people. “Do you believe science or are you a Trumper?” is usually how these discussions go. The dirty secret, however, is the so called liberal in the U.S. is every bit as shallow and clueless as their right-wing counterparts. That means you…

The 1972 Munich Olympics was a watershed moment in world history. Black September took 11 Israeli athletes hostage and the result was not as the Germans would have hoped, “nobody wanted dead Jews in Germany.” As a 9 year old boy, I was faced with who my parents were, specifically my dad. It was the first time I had to admit to myself that yes, I was “different.” As life went on, there were a lot of things I had to deal with in this regard. I began to learn that we, as a nation, are the victims of propaganda. American Exceptionalism, however, ignores the victims of imperialism. We’ll be covering a lot of that later but for now, I was 9…

HAPPY MLK DAY! Originally aired a few years ago, I think it would be good to post again. The facts germane to the point haven’t changed. Sadly, the right wing "acceptance" of MLK and the idiotic idea "good protestors" hasn't changed either.

Taken from James DiEugenio’s 2013 book, Reclaiming Parkland, we get into a sort of primer for the uninitiated. There are many aspects to the murder of JFK but one thing seems to be a constant, and that is Lee Harvey Oswald was not a “lone nut,” and the infamous “single bullet theory,” was a fabrication. The Warren Commission had more in common with the Washington Generals than an actual investigation. In addition to the DiEugenio book, we highly recommend Oliver Stone’s Showtime documentary, JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass.
