    The attempts by the former president to overturn the voting results in Georgia have led to Trump and 18 others being indicted in Fulton County Georgia. Some of his closest advisors both in and out of the government have joined him in this state indictment that had the intent of robbing thousands of Georgians of our legitimate votes. This is the third major indictment of a person who refuses to face reality and has convinced millions to join in a world refusing to accept he lost the election by millions of votes and a large plurality of the Electoral College.

    Our podcast topics centered on three themes. The tragic wildfire in Hawaii, especially Lahaina with its horrific loss of life. And the continued legal battles facing the former president.

  • Memorial Day and More

    Our podcast leads off with a discussion and salute to those who have served in our Armed Forces and honoring those who died in that service. The main topic after that was how our government has become so dysfunctional, especially at the national level. Over the past 6 years we have had a president who minimized a world wide pandemic that took over 1 million American lives, a Supreme Court justice that does not follow even the minimal ethics required of them and a very minimal GOP House majority that prefers pain for the majority of Americans rather than more taxes on the very wealthy.
