Millennial Review

In this shorter solo episode Trevor discusses his view of Bernie Sanders, the team Bernie Sanders is building, what it means for 2020. 

In the 10th installment of the Millennial Review we took a closer look at would-be-Ted-Cruz-replacer, Beto O'Rourke. 

Topics Include: 

Beto's first day fundraising totals, what they mean, what they don't mean, and what we need to know going forward to really make sense of those numbers.

Beto's genuine and undeniable charisma, its limits, and what it means for a potential Beto candidacy/presidency.

A closer look at his really conservative record in congress. Some finer points, opposing "the means" of DACA, continued support for lenders at the expense of consumers, wishy-washy at best on issues like Medicare-For-All and the Green New Deal. 

The very real problem with Beto's political ambition or lack of principles, whichever it is, they're both bad.

And much more!

In our first patron only edition Trevor looked at fascism, what it is, how it works, how it spreads, and the people who fall victim to it. 

It's a really in-depth look at some of the darkest forces in contemporary American politics. With recent events, specifically the New Zealand mosque killings, understanding these forces is more important than ever.

In the latest installment of our series on the candidates we took a deep dive on Andrew Yang and his proposal for a universal basic income. 

Topics Include: 

- Andrew Yang's very detailed diagnosis of the coming automation crisis and he's one of the few candidates talking about it. 

- Andrew Yang's few unique policy proposals outside the universal basic income and why forcing a discussion around the UBI is good. 

- The many, many, serious problems with Yang's UBI and the fundamental difference between Yang's plan and leftist visions of the UBI. 

- A lot of discussion surrounding why Yang borrows from the likes of Milton Friedman and tries to wrap it up as Noam Chomsky. 

And much, much more!

In the ninth installment of the Millennial Review, we take a long look at Joe Biden's record. 

Topics Include:

- The start of his career using racist fear mongering as one of the few Democrats opposed to "forced busing." (His words, not ours). 

- Joe Biden's long history of anti-abortion legislation and rhetoric. 

- His terrible handling of the Anita Hill hearing and horrible treatment toward Anita Hill specifically. 

- Joe Biden's avid support for the 1994 crime bill which exploded prison populations even more and was passed once again using racist fear mongering. 

- His long history of cozying up to financial interests, including credit card companies and big banks. He served as point man on efforts to reform bankruptcy which hurt consumers with credit card debt and student loans. 

- And much, much more!
