  • Why Clarence Thomas Must Be Impeached

    The Supreme Court was in the news this week - both for Ketanji Brown Jackson's confirmation hearings, and new January 6 revelations about SCOTUS spouse Ginni Thomas. Justice Clarence Thomas should recuse himself from cases where his wife was a lobbyist or organizer - but he does not. That begs the question: should Congress impeach?

  • It's All Connected

    It may feel petty to frame the horrors of the war in Ukraine to midterm elections in the United States - but Republicans are trying to use it as a cudgel against the Biden administration. And as MOMocrat Karoli points out: Ukraine, January 6, trucker convoys, and whispers against Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson are "all connected." Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills discuss this week's political news. Part of the DemCast family of podcasts.

  • Can Ukraine Hold On?

    The MOMocrats are in awe of the Ukrainians' courage defending their nation from Russia's invasion - and terrified of what comes next. They also discuss this week's State of the Union address, the February job numbers, and the ongoing investigations into January 6. MOMocrats MOMochat is part of the DemCast family of podcasts.

  • Trump Fought the Law and the Law May Actually Win

    It's Hillary Hysteria over at Fox News - which means that former President Donald Trump is in legal hot water. Again.

    MOMocrats Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills talk about the former guy's very bad week, beginning with being disavowed by his longtime accountants, and ending with his loss in the New York courts -- as well as new revelations about top secret classified documents showing up at Mar-a-Lago. He hasn't been taking it well.

    The MOMocrats also chat about the assymetry of the political media landscape and how Democrats need a better strategy at fighting the culture wars, that San Francisco school board recall, the midterm elections and more.

  • The Gazpacho Police and Classified Toilet Paper

    This week, we learned exactly why Donald Trump was so obsessed with low-flush toilets. But let's keep on talking about Hillary Clinton's emails.

    MOMocrats Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills talk about new revelations on how Trump handled presidential records (and the boxes and boxes retrieved from Mar-a-Lago), the RNC's idea of "legitimate political discourse," and what they learned last weekend at the National Museum of African-American History and Culture.

  • We Want Voting Rights. And Justice for Democracy.
    MOMocrats Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills aren't going to lie: It's been a bad week. The quest to re-enact Voting Rights continues to be stalled in the Senate (thanks to 50 GOP Senators who don't want you to vote and two intransigent Democrats who -- we don't know what their deal is).Inflation continues to rise and Americans are in a sour mood. Few media outlets are pointing out that rising prices are a global issue that can be traced to the pandemic, which isn't helping.And speaking of COVID, the Supreme Court just ruled against the Administration's vaccine mandate for large companies, as omicron cases have filled up ICU's around the country to heights surpassing last winter's peak.If this was a superhero movie, we'd be at the end of Act 3, where the world is about to get blown up. Can we save the day? The MOMocrats talk about where we are, where we are going, and the things that give us hope... such as yesterday's sedition indictment of some of the Oath Keepers who planned the January 6 insurrection.MOMocrats MOMochat is part of the DemCast family of podcasts.
