Gary, Lyn and Dee discuss news of the day and current events.  We finish our round-up of new laws and regulations going into effect nationwide since the start of the new year.  New laws across the country deal with voter ID, employment policy (not just minimum wage raises,) policing the police, paid family leave, school […]

Gary, Lyn and Dee discuss current events and topics of the day.  So many topics, so little time.  Tom Steyer, Democratic billionaire behind the impeachment movement, has bought 535 copies of ‘Fire and Fury.’  He plans on sending them to every senator and representative in Washington, DC.  We talked about new rules and regulations going […]

Gary, Lyn and Dee start discussing the Appropriations Bills put out by Congress so far this year.  Total savings for the eight bills equals $19.7 Billion.  This sounds like a lot of money, but we haven’t gotten any figures on final bills for Defense or Entitlements.  The Agricultural Appropriations bill would cut $876 Million dollars […]

Gary and Dee discuss the new level of hate that this Republican administration has brought forth.  Yes, we’ve always had those who would discriminate against others, but now they are emboldened.  What does it say about a presidency when the manufacturer of Tiki torches does a better job distancing themselves from White Supremacists, than the […]

Gary and Dee continue the discussion on  Teaching in America today.  We compare the pay of teachers to babysitters and child care centers.  We’re getting a real bargain here.  We can afford to pay our nation’s educators more.  We discuss how many colleges staff their departments with adjunct professors to avoid having to employ full-time […]
