U.S. judge rules DACA program illegal, suspends new applications

A federal judge in Texas said that former president Barack Obama exceeded his authority when he created the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program by executive order. The judge ruled that DACA is therefore unlawful and ordered the Biden administration to suspend the program. Current recipients of DACA will be unaffected for now, but there will be no approval of new applicants, according to multiple reports. The Biden administration is expected to appeal the judge's decision, according to The New York Times.

Being priced out of the Political process

People seem to believe that we are a political podcast. Not true. At least I believe that, we as a people need to train our government to start working for us again. I see so many people today, giving their hard earned money to political campaigns and I wonder for what


The way I See it. Someone donating to a politician is getting caught up in the hysteria politics creates, or their living in a fantasy world in which politicians listen to the donators. 


If someone was to donate $2500 a month for a year, they would have spent $25,000,00 that year. That person will receive no benefit, no meeting, no phone call, Nothing. And even if you donated based on a promise of the politician, at any moment, a PAC, lobbyist, or corporation can come along and donate you out of the process, Getting that meeting, FaceTime, phone call, and influencing that politician in a way, The small dollar donator never could, Essentially pricing me out of the political process that claims to have my best interest at heart. 


So. No. We are not a political podcast. Politicians see issues from a political lens, People from their lens and so what I hope we can do is pull an issue out of the political perspective we’ve been convinced is the way to see everything these days and show Americans that the issue is more then that, It’s a real meaningful opportunity to make a difference to us, If we can get out voice involved. A seat at the table, Leveling the political playing field for all Americans.
