    It’s Up To Democrats To Make Republicans Pay A Big Political Price For This Big Ugly Bill
    Jul 3 2025
    The big, ugly bill is gonna pass. And the wealthy will get huge tax breaks, and working class Americans will lose health care and food assistance, immigrants will be cruelly harassed, and the debt will increase by trillions. Republicans must pay a political price in 2026 for what they’re doing right now. But it will be up to Democrats to make that case.

    Understanding Gen Z: A Conversation
    Jul 2 2025
    I sat down with Rachel Janfanza, founder of The Up and Up, an organization dedicated to young voters in America. Fascinating conversation - what does Gen Z care about? Where are they at politically? How do they want to make a difference? Good stuff, give it a listen.

    It’s A Big, Ugly Bill
    Jun 30 2025
    Senate Republicans today look to advance a bill that gives tax breaks to the wealthy, cut health care & food assistance to the neediest among us, and adds trillions to the debt. How is that a beautiful bill? It isn’t. And…you can’t say you believe in freedom and say that billionaires shouldn’t exist. You just can’t.

    The Republican Party Embraces Fascism, And People Think The Democratic Party Is Messed Up?
    Jun 27 2025
    Everyone seems to continue to just beat up on the Democratic Party, pile on how messed up and problematic the Democratic Party is. Ok. The Democratic Party has issues, but my former political party is an authoritarian embracing cult that’s given up on democracy and ignores the rule of law. So…WHICH party has issues?

    Trying To Figure Out What’s Really Happening (with Mike Madrid)
    Jun 26 2025
    I sat down with one of the smartest political minds I know, Mike Madrid, to get at what happened in NYC Tuesday, what’s happening with the Democratic Party, what’s happening to our American institutions, and where this great experiment in democracy is heading. As only he can do, Madrid offered fascinating insights.

  • Democrats Are Having Their Tea Party Moment

    Democrats Are Having Their Tea Party Moment
    Jun 25 2025
    We all make too much out of off year and special elections, but this much is clear by now: the Democratic Party base is angry, fed up and feeling ignored by their party establishment. And they’re letting their party establishment know it. And hear it. This disruptive dynamic sounds so familiar to this former tea party guy.
