Bernie 2020 is officially here! As a result, we’ll talk about his campaign launch, Trump and the media’s reaction to his launch as well as other 2020 presidential contenders including Amy Klobuchar and her unbearably boring CNN town hall, Tulsi Gabbard’s interview on ABC’s ‘The View’ and Andrew Yang’s discussion with Joe Rogan about free college. These topics (and more) will all be talked about on this episode of the podcast, so buckle up buckaroo, because Bernie’s back and everyone’s feeling the bern again!

Ilhan Omar broke a cardinal rule in Washington D.C. this week: she criticized AIPAC’s influence on politicians. The aftermath was a total meltdown by members of both parties in Congress over her comment supposedly being “anti-semitic,” with calls for apologies and resignations dominating political discourse this week. The reality, however, is that she’s absolutely right about their influence on politicians. We can say that and also acknowledge the need to protect the Jewish people—not to be confused with the pro-Israel lobbying firm, AIPAC—from actual instances of hate and bigotry (which is often perpetuated by the very individuals that were quick to call her out, ironically). Additionally, we’ll talk about Trump’s hot take on climate change, Howard Schultz’s CNN town hall, Ro Khanna’s defense of net neutrality, Tulsi Gabbard’s progressive foreign policy vision, a new warning from scientists about diminishing insect populations, and more.

The current crop of 2020 Democratic Party presidential contenders—for the most part—all seem to support Bernie Sanders’ Medicare for All proposal, but whenever they’re pushed on specific details, they’re inadvertently revealing that they’re not actually serious about it. Sherrod Brown flat out just doesn’t support it, Elizabeth Warren—like Kamala Harris—suddenly supports “many paths” to Medicare for All, Cory Booker won’t get rid of the filibuster in order to fight for it, and Howard Schultz… well, he’s Howard Schultz. We’ll talk about why Bernie Sanders is the only 2020 candidate that’s serious about getting Medicare for All. Additionally, we’ll talk about the net neutrality legal battle, Michael Moore’s take on 2020, Trump’s endorsement of religion in schools, and more!

All throughout the week we’ve been bombarded by smugness and condescension from some of the wealthiest elites in the world; starting at the WEC in Davos, where billionaires laughed at the idea of a 70% marginal tax rate. To top things off, former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz floated the idea of a “centrist independent” presidential run in 2020; and on top of that, him and his friend (another billionaire) Michael Bloomberg teamed up to tell the peasants we can’t have Medicare for All. It’s time we eat the rich.

Multiple Democratic Party presidential candidates have announced their candidacy for the presidency, but along with these announcements comes revelations about their records and how “progressive” they’ve been throughout their careers, as they now pretend to be Bernie Sanders lite. So with that being said we’ll look at the past record of Kamala Harris as well as Joe Biden’s borderline extremist “tough on crime” stance he held in the late-‘80s. Additionally, we’ll talk about how Tulsi Gabbard’s campaign reached out to the show in order to lend some clarification to questions we raised in last week’s episode about her record. We’ll also talk about Bernie Sanders’ upcoming presidential campaign, the Supreme Court’s cowardly position on Transgender rights, and more. Enjoy!

Bernie Sanders hasn’t even announced his 2020 campaign yet, but that hasn’t stopped vultures in the mainstream media from looking for any and all reasons to attack him. Chuck Todd salivated over recent stories that were unfavorable to Bernie, and a pseudo-woke comedian attacked him for being an “old white man” (Ew!). Also, when it comes to more 2020 news we’ll talk about Kirsten Gillibrand, Kamala Harris, and Cory Booker’s ties to Wall Street as well as the criticisms Tulsi Gabbard has recently received. These topics and more will be discussed in this episode, enjoy!

A reality television star has been President of the United States for two years now, and on his 2nd anniversary the government is shutdown due to a prolonged temper tantrum from the 72 year-old manchild. In addition to the sheer petulance of the President, the planet is suffering due to his aggresively anti-environmental deregulatory agenda. We’ll talk about those stories and we’ll also discuss the ongoing crusade against Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and you’ll get a look at what to expect with regard to the 2019 legal battle over net neutrality. Enjoy the program, people!

2019 is here, but it feels like 2016. Why? Because we’re already seeing a repeat of what happened during the 2016 Democratic Party primary; the same smears against Bernie Sanders by the establishmet and media bias we’re all too familiar with. In this episode we’ll talk about that as well as how the 116th Congress is off to an abysmal start, Elizabeth Warren’s rough start to her presidential campaign, and key differences between Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. Enjoy the show!

It's that time of year again, which means old traditions—such as Fox News' 'War on Christmas' segments—will continue for younger generations. In this special episode, Mike will wage a war on the idea that there's a war on Christmas by shining a light on the stupidity that has been coming from the right during the holiday season. Enjoy this special episode, happy holidays!

2020 is coming… or more specifically, Democratic Party primary season is upon us; and as a result we’ll be talking about some of the most prominent news stories leading up to the launch of the 2019 campaign season. We’ll talk about CNN’s nonsensical 2020 power rankings—which they call “definitive” (lol)—and we’ll talk about the revival of the Bernie Bro myth ahead of Bernie Sanders’ 2020 campaign. We’ll also talk about public broadband, the Green New Deal, Trump’s corruption, and a lot more. Finally, we’ll close the show with our 4th annual THR Award show, where viewers get to crown our Scumbag and MVP of 2018. We’ll also close this jam-packed episode with a video compilation of some of the biggest news stories of the year along with some words of motivation as we head into 2019. Enjoy the show, everyone. Happy Holidays, we’ll see you in 2019!
