  • Eugenics | On the Issues - #53
    Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party practiced Eugenics, killing millions of people in the process. However, what we aren't taught in schools is that they took their ideas from the United States, where this "science" has been practiced since the late 1800s. The allegations made by former Immigration and Customs Enforcement nurse Dawn Wooten, who says a doctor has performed mass hysterectomies on Hispanic women without their consent, are just a drop in the bucket compared to actual Supreme Court rulings that legalized the forced sterilization of minorities and tens of thousands of procedures that were subsequently performed throughout our history.

  • The Electoral College | On the Issues - #52
    If you ever wondered how the Electoral College works, we're here to explain it to you just in time for Election Day. When you vote, you aren't voting for the president; you're voting for someone who will vote for the president for you. This process has failed many times, and it will fail again and again and again. That isn't just our opinion. The Founding Fathers agree.

  • RBG, Despacito, Indoctrination, and ICE - #51
    Liberal Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, also widely known as the Notorious RBG, passed away, leaving a vacancy that the GOP may have the opportunity to fill, leaving the court skewed in favor of conservative policies. Dawn Wooten, a nurse who worked at an ICE facility in Georgia, stepped forward to claim that a doctor there was giving forced hysterectomies to immigrants. Joe Biden plays "Despacito" at an event he attended to try and gain favor with voters in Florida. What do the polls look like now vs. the same time in 2016?

  • Ranked Choice Voting | On the Issues - #50
    Shorter election seasons? More choices on the ballot? Less power for Democrats and Republicans? I wonder why the two-party system hates the idea of Ranked Choice Voting! It's time to break free of major political parties that don't represent the American people in any significant way, and RCV is an excellent way to do that while also breathing life into independent candidates. Let us break it down for you.

  • The Lesser Evil Argument | On the Issues - #49
    For decades, we have been taught that if you do not vote for X party, you're voting for Y party. However, that is a lie. These two parties seem to have a deadlock in most states anyway, so why not vote third party? It's the only way to break the cycle. Also, have you ever considered why these parties are so powerful? We have to get money out of politics. Listen to us make our case.

  • The Lynching of Daniel Prude - #48
    There are multiple sides to every story involving police brutality and the death of a suspect, but the story of Daniel Prude is cold blooded murder, and we are here to break it down for you. On a side note, The Atlantic battles it out with Trump regarding whether or not he called war heroes "losers" and "suckers," Biden claims that Thomas Edison didn't even invent the light bulb in a garbage attempt to secure black voters, and there is even more drama surrounding the USPS and mail-in voting.

  • Richard Spencer Backs Biden - #47
    Trump has been supporting conspiracy theories surrounding Joe Biden and the Democratic party, but does that surprise anyone? He is currently polling better than he did at the same time in August 2016. Maybe that's because Joe Biden and the DNC spend way more time trying to appeal to conservatives than progressives. On "the bright side," they've successfully gained the endorsement of many previous Republican administration members as well as the "coveted" support of alt-right neo-nazi poster child, Richard Spencer.

  • Jacob Blake and Kyle Rittenhouse: What We Know - #46
    One side claims that Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17-year old aspiring police officer, is a vigilante hero who acted solely in self-defense, and the other side claims that he is a white supremacist mass shooter working with an alt-right militia. One side claims that the officers who shot Jacob Blake are vindicated after he allegedly admitted to having a weapon in his possession, and the other side claims that law enforcement had no reason whatsoever to even show up at the scene. Here's the sad reality: blatantly evocative reporting is twisting the narrative of every major news story.UPDATE: It is now being reported that Kyle Rittenhouse called a friend, not the police, after the first shooting.

  • The Minimum Wage | On the Issues - #45
    Ignoring the facts readily available to them, many believe that the minimum wage is not designed to cover the cost of living in a given area, and some even believe that the minimum wage itself should be abolished altogether to allow the free market to work everything out. Let's take a look at the history of the minimum wage and why it exists in the first place.
