Marjorie Taylor Greene filed a motion to vacate against House Speaker Mike Johnson because he dared to do the business of "governing."

PROSECUTION RESTS, but should they? Tribute to Andrew Howard Karel Cast 24-60

The Prosecution in the Donald Trump election subversion trial has rested, but should they have? Did Michael Cohen and Stormy Daniels really prove the case through a preponderance of evidence? Should that have found someone credible to back up Cohen..although, who, in Trump's inner circle is credible and NOT under indictment? 

Air turbulence kills one, but does that mean air travel is getting riskier?

48 Papers, 23 years…and still people think you are crazy for being plant based. Why aren't you?

Andrew Howard died May 21, 2001, 23 years. A lifetime, and just yesterday. The song Missing You by Diana Ross spoke to me, so I recorded a version for Andrew, For Daniel, for all my friends and pets that are gone. And a great slide show of our lives makes the perfect tribute video.

Department Of Education Extends Key Student Loan Consolidation Deadline To June 30th

It’s disturbing to hear the media talk about Trump’s Day One plans as if he has already won. How we arrived at a place where a person who is wholly unqualified both by temperament and fitness for high office is in a neck and neck race for our highest office is a damning commentary on our collective attention span and lack of desire to educate ourselves about the coming political contest. All I can say is, democracy, tighten your chinstrap. You’re in for a rough ride. Here’s a brief commentary that pulls it all together. I hope you’ll listen.

A Turning Point - Why oh Why

The guest host for today's show is Brad Bannon. Brad runs Bannon Communications Research, a polling, message development and media firm which helps labor unions, progressive issue groups and Democratic candidates win public affairs and political campaigns. His show, 'Deadline D.C. with Brad Bannon,' airs every Monday from 3-4pm ET.

Brad is first joined by Edwith Theogene, Director of Racial Equity and Justice at CAP Action.

The two discuss President Biden's robust whole government approach to equity, his commencement speech this past weekend at Morehouse College, which is predominately attended by African-American students, and how the Supreme Court's SFFA vs Harvard decision has hurt DEI efforts around the country.

Edwith also details 'Project 2025,' a right-wing effort to weaponize a potential second Trump term.
 
Then, Brad Bauman, a Principal in the Raben Group's Strategic Communications practice, talks presidential politics with Brad.
Specifically, he examines President Biden's re-election efforts, and what messaging that Democrats should be using to convince voters to given Biden a second term over Trump.

In her role at CAP, Edwith Theogene leads American Progress’ efforts to develop, communicate, and implement policy ideas that provide a new way forward for a range of equity challenges in an increasingly diverse America, with a particular focus on race and equity.

He previously served as executive director of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, where he oversaw the caucus' legislative, communications, and political operations for over 80 members of Congress. 
The website for the Raben Group is www.Raben.co and Brad Bauman's handle on X is @bradbaumn.

How Project 2025 Would Weaponize a 2nd Trump Term; Messaging Democrats Should Use to Re-elect Biden

Butker, Combs Men Behaving Badly; Should Biden Campaign? Karel Cast 24-59

Sean Combs apologizes for beating a woman on an eight year old video; a claim he denied, called her crazy then gave her $50m dollars to shut up. Butker goes on an anti-gay, Handmaid's tale rant at a college graduation. Why do men these days feel they can just behave as badly as they want? I know.

If you want to save Democracy there is only one choice on the ballot. So why is Biden agreeing to debates and legitimizing his opponent?

JLo and Ben may split, do we always root against love, and if so, why?

Plus my thoughts on Pride Month.
