democracy-ish

Do you care about your ailing loved ones in nursing homes? How about your 401K? Private Equity firms have become modern day pirates preying on the most marginalized populations in order to make a buck--and if that isn't terrible enough they are now coming for what is left of the Middle Class. Waj and Danielle sit down with Brendan Ballou author of the new book, Plunder: Private Equity's Plan to Pillage America. In this episode of democracy-ish we pull the curtain back behind these elitist institutions to see what is really at play.

When they continue to tell us who they are how long it be before Americans begin to believe them?!? Waj and Danielle take on this and much much more in todays episode of #democracyish

We have known that Fox (not news) lies to its tens of millions of viewers each and every day, but now Rupert Murdoch admitted as much under oath in the Dominion lawsuit. Recently, discovery was released and in it Murdoch readily admits that his hosts knew the 2020Election wasn't stolen but kept going with the big lie anyway. This week Waj and Danielle go in on Fox and whether this case will finally hold them accountable for their crimes against democracy and the country at large.
