It was an action-packed weekend, especially for those who hit the theatres - though there was plenty of political drama too. From Trump's Iran mess, to Republicans' Max Miller mess, to Todd Blanche’s bs change to the insurrectionist slush fund, we’ve got a full ‘News On Tap’ tonight. We’ve also got Brooklyn Dad Defiant stopping by. Grab a drink & join us!
It's been a long, weird week - but today’s “News On Tap” tastes like change. From the polls & politics, through to the media, Americans clearly want something different than we have now. We’ll talk about it & recap the week with Karen & Anita from Tru Blu Politics podcast (and on Patreon too). Grab a drink & join us!
While today’s “News On Tap” looks great for Democratic voters of all kinds, elected Republicans are terrified, with plenty of good reasons. From Trump's Iran quagmire to the disastrous Republican economy, we'll talk about those topics & more with our friends Richard Chew & John Fugelsang. Grab a drink & join us!
As you can read in today’s News On Tap, U.S national politics right now is mostly about theatre – but there are still piles of very real problems that Trump & Republicans are ignoring. We'll talk about 'em though with our friend Bob Cesca. Grab a drink and hang out with us here!
Even though it didn’t make it into today’s News On Tap, Trump did sleep through Lindsay Graham’s funeral today Meanwhile, his failures in the Iran war & the economy keep piling up, as Democrats kept piling on each other in their uncivil war. We'll talk about all that & more with Kimberley Johnson & Jared Rizzi. Grab a drink & join us!
Today’s “News On Tap” shows we could have a blue wave this fall - or a total washout. Plus, Trump stopped bombing Iran so he could bomb at the White House Correspondents Dinner - which was more embarrassing for the media than Donald. Plus, Comic Con, movies, & more with Brooklyn Dad Defiant. Grab a drink & join us!
Today's News On Tap tastes a little like good folks are turning the tide. So if you’re feeling Donald & Republicans getting panicky, just as Democratic voters start uniting, we’re feeling it too. It’s a perfect time to have Carolyn Fiddler, along with Karen & Anita from Tru Blu Politics podcast (and on Patreon too). Grab a drink & join us!
If you look at today’s News On Tap, you can see where the real divide is in America, even if most in the mainstream news media can’t (or won’t). We’ll talk about that, about how much Republicans love war, & how Democratic voters are more united than you might think. Plus John Fugelsang’s here for all of it. Grab a drink & join us!
Today’s “News On Tap” tastes of halfascism & loneliness - because clearly Trump & his minions don’t have any real friends. From Trump's quagmire with Iran, to their failing war against democracy, everywhere they are, it’s failure. Thankfully, our friend Bob Cesca stops by the bar tonight to talk about all of it. Grab a drink & join us!
As you can see, today’s “News On Tap” is a bit messy - Trump's losing war with Iran keeps dragging on, the economy keeps getting worse thanks to Trump & Republicans, & the mainstream news media keeps failing. Still, there are reasons for hope - including our friend Hal Sparks, who will be here tonight. Grab a drink & join us!

In communities across the U.S., from small towns to big cities, there used to be a lot more places like the ol’ neighborhood bar. It was a place you could come after work, to talk with your friends…
In those days, you could even talk about politics a little bit without causing a bar brawl. These days, the people in our personal communities are often spread from coast to coast and around the world. And while it’s great to see ‘em on social media, it would be better to have a place where the bartenders knew your name, and you could trust the folks in your community would be there with the latest news and drink or two.
So we’ve created a place like that here – and you’re invited. Come on in, pull up a chair, grab something to drink, and we’ll get up to speed with the news of the day, at The Politics Bar.
