  • President Pelosi, If You’re Nasty! - Bros for America
    President Pelosi...as in President Nancy Pelosi?

    One thing is clear after the most recent episode of Bros For America, the new progressive political podcast by advocacy group Bros4America: These guys are #stillwithher. Big time. And they don't give a f**k if you hear or care.

    "The one Bernie Sanders supporter who listens to our podcast just turned it off," quipped co-panelist Rance Collins. Collins joined moderator and Bros4America Co-founder/Editor-in-Chief Alex Mohajer, and co-panelist Thomas McAbee in offering a unanimous unofficial endorsement of and call for Hillary Clinton to run for the presidency in 2020.

    If she doesn't?

    "If I can't see a President Hillary Clinton, then I'm going to see a President Nancy Pelosi," Collins laughed, though hardly joking. Among the many potential repercussions of the forthcoming "blue wave" is a new Speaker of the House. Indeed, current House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is poised to retake the position, which she previously held from 2007 to 2011, once again becoming third in line to assume the presidency in the presidential line of succession should Trump and Vice President Mike Pence resign their office or be indicted with federal crimes. She will become only the second female Speaker of the House, second only to herself.



    Pelosi has become the stuff of conservative lore, and few political figures are as despised as she is by the conservative, and lately progressive coalition(s).

    The San Francisco liberal was the first female Speaker of the House from 2007-2011, and has been responsible for a large slate of legislative achievements. (She is considered to have played a vital role in securing the votes needed to pass the Affordable Care Act.)

    Collins proceeded to egg on Bernie Sanders supporters with his pro-Clinton endorsement, joking that the Clinton love would surely scare off the sole Bros4America Barnard Sanders voters. The comment was a slight at third-party and independent voters who, since the election, have taken to criticizing long-time members of the Democratic party like Pelosi (D-Calif.) instead of directing their ire towards regressive GOP policymakers and leaders.

    The unofficial Hillary endorsement should come as no surprise. Bros4America did actually begin as Bros4Hillary, after all. Nevertheless, the passage of time and growing pressure by Hillary haters to move on may have created an urgency and identity crisis in some people, here at Bros we only speak the truth:

    Hillary Clinton deserves to be president, and she should run in 2020.



    "I can't believe how giddy this is making us," Mohajer said as the mere suggestion of a Clinton 2020 run rendered the three panelists for this episode unable to make it through fits of hopeful laughter in what was meant to be a more serious breakdown of the week's latest events and developments in the Trump/Russia story. With the House Committee's Republican members unceremoniously and abruptly closing their investigation, and with the Trump Administration firing anyone with even a modicum of firsthand knowledge that might be used to corroborate allegations against him, the week's bombastic events all come down to one thing.

    "This all about Mueller," Mohajer opined. "The hiring shake-ups, the belligerent distractions....this is all about Mueller."

    Either way, HRC seems to be ruffling feathers. The Bros aired this following sound bite of Hillary Clinton savagely shooting down Ivanka Trump's reported ambitions for the White House.

  • RANTT Media Founder Ahmed Baba Talks Kim Jong Un, Trump and Putin
    RANTT Media founder Ahmed Baba joins Bros4America co-founder Alex Mohajer and co-host Daniel Fusselman on this week’s Bros for America podcast to discuss Unpresidented, his weekly column for RANTT Media. the independent online news media organization Baba founded in late 2016 in response to hyper-partisanship and the rise of fake news in the current media landscape.
    “The Secretary of State has been rendered useless. Rex Tillerson is literally just traveling around the globe giving handjobs for oil.” – Alex Mohajer, Bros for America podcast. 
    The conversation ranged from Kim Jong Un and the shocking announcement that Trump has agreed to meet with the North Korean dictator in May, to speculation as to whether or not the Trump Administration would need to start using Craigslist to fill vacant staffing needs in the White House as another round of high-profile exits rocked America this week.
    March 13th is Bros4America co-founder Alex Mohajer‘s 33rd birthday, and all he wants for his birthday is to elect Conor Lamb to the United States Senate in the special election happening in Pennsylvania’s 18th congressional district on Tuesday. “There would be no better birthday gift this year than for Conor to pull this off on my birthday,” Mohajer said during the broadcast.
    This year, Mohajer plans to protest Donald Trump, who will rear his head at a Beverly Hills fundraiser for his 2020 campaign in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
    The hot topics discussion this week covered the gamut, from Jeff Session’s racism and absurd priorities as the Attorney General to Kim Jung Un’s end-game in the upcoming purported negotiations with the Bigly Negotiator himself.
    #SHITHOLEOFTHEWEEK
    Second runner-up: Gary Cohn. Donald Trump’s senior economic adviser, who couldn’t be bothered to resign the Trump Administration when his boss was voicing his support for white nationalists during the Charlottesville riots last year, has reportedly reached his breaking point over Trump’s announcement regarding tax tariffs.

  • Pulse Nightclub Survivor Brandon Wolf; Congressional Candidate Dr. Jason Westin (D-TX)
    On this episode of Bros for America, our weekly political podcast, moderator, Whoopi Goldberg doppelgänger, and Bros4America co-founder/Editor-in-Chief Alex Mohajer is joined by regular panelists Thomas Mcabee and Daniel Fusselman for a lively discussion about Donald Trump’s unwillingness to pursue any new sanctions against Russia, his newly announced tariffs which will place a tax on the trade of certain metals, and shocking news this week that 30 members of his administration lost their security clearances, including his son-in-law Jared Kushner.
    SHITHOLE OF THE WEEK!
    This week’s three Shithole of the Week honorees include faux journalist Caitlin Johnstone, a Medium writer and a foreign-national – NOT an American – who has pledged to interfere with upcoming American elections to disrupt Democrats. The Daily Beast affectionately refers to Johnstone as an “alt-left wing nut,” but we think of her as a foreigner who has publicly announced her intentions to meddle with our elections, and any self-respecting American should take her to task, not give her a platform or support her work. This includes frothing-at-the-mouth looney tunes like Jimmy Dore, the comedian turned political pundit who actually hosted Johnstone on his radio show to give her a platform.
    Frankly, we’ve had just about enough of foreigners interfering with our elections.
    Listen in to find out which others earned their rightful position as Shithole of the Week.
    THIS WEEK’S GUESTS

    Joining the podcast this week is Brandon Wolf, a survivor of the 2016 Pulse Nightclub Shooting in Orlando, Florida and Vice President of The DRU Project whose moving story of survival and activism has been given renewed attention following the recent Parkland, Florida shooting. He is back in the activist spotlight, joining his voice to the growing chorus of incensed Americans who are demanding reasonable gun safety legislation.

    Our second guest is Dr. Jason Westin, a cancer
    doctor from the 7th Congressional District in Texas who is running for Congress on a progressive platform and who was motivated by the disturbing outcome of the 2016 presidential election. Folks who are impressed with
    Dr. Westin can vote for him in the Texas primary that is coming up this Tuesday, March 6, 2018.

  • March For Our Lives with Special Guests Philip Germain and Chrissy Watson
    On this episode of the Bros 4 America Podcast, the panel welcomes special guests Chrissy Watson and Philip Germain, organizers of the March for our Lives – Los Angeles rally happening on March 24, 2018. Like many young people across America, they are responding to the #NeverAgain movement, lead by the grief-stricken high school students at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.
    Last week, an 18-year old gunman, equipped with semi-automatic assault weapons which he had legally purchased and modified, opened fire on and killed 17 of his classmates in what would become one of the deadliest mass shootings in American history, and frighteningly the 18th school shooting to happen in 2018 ALONE. But rather than become merely another statistic, the students fought back, hard, inspiring a movement that is aimed at toppling the National Rifle Association and it’s stranglehold over politics once and for all.
    Those inspired by the movement included Chrissy Watson and Philip Germain, two of the organizers of the March for our Lives – Los Angeles march that will correspond with the national march on Washington D.C. this coming March 24, 2018.  While Germain, 20, describes a breadth of political experience at his ripe old age, Watson explained that she’d never really become involved before. Until now.
    “I just decided to create the Facebook page for an LA event [to show support for the march on Washington D.C.],” Watson told the panel on the Bros 4 America Podcast. “I had no idea that it would end up snowballing into us partnering with the Women’s March and [other major organizations.]”
    When the event began to gain traction, she decided she should actually organize the event, not just wait for someone else to take the reigns. A client manager at a digital marketing company by day, Watson had no idea when she created the Facebook page March for Our Lives Los Angeles that it would unlock a passion for standing alongside these incredible students to make a change.
    Watson stressed the importance of civic engagement and activism, and called her fellow young people to get involved at any level 0r to any degree.
    “Activism can be any thing you want it to be. It can start with a tweet,” replied moderator Alex Mohajer, the self-professed ‘Whoopi Goldberg’ of the program.
    Watson’s partner in the effort, Philip Germain, is a 20-year-old Political Science major who has already cut his teeth in the political world. He runs his own non-profit, CA25 United for Progress,  which works to register and inform young people in California’s 25th Congressional district (whose current Republican representative in the United States House is none-other than repeat offender Steve Knight, and who Bros4America is also currently working to unseat).

  • Donald Trump Celebrates His Worst Week Ever On Presidents Day
    Happy President’s Day, y’all!
    This week was a doozy. But it wasn’t just Donald Trump’s no good, very bad week. (Though to be sure, it was the worst week in America since Donald Trump’s inauguration.)
    It was ours.
    The Bros for America Podcast is back with an all-new episode on this President’s Day. On a day meant to be a celebratory reflection on the successes and impacts of our former presidents, this year the sentiment (at least for the Bros) was that this is no longer unacceptable:
    Another mass shooting has roiled America. This time, those lucky enough to escape being one of the 17 people murdered at the hands of a white nationalist teenage mutant ninja war hawks, were gifted with the distinct privilege of having their President blame themselves for the loss.
    The White House referred to the tragedy as a “reprieve” from its own scandal-laden spectacle of a clown-car show.
    DREAMERs did not get any long-term relief from Congress for the expiring DACA program, which allows for children that immigrate to the United States through no fault of their own to be able to legally obtain citizenship. The deadline to pass a clean DREAMER bill is now March 5, 2018, though passage of such a bill.
    On the plus side, Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference with the 2016 presidential was elevated this week as news broke that 13 Russian nationals were indicted in the grand jury investigation.
    On the other hand, the media is barely reporting on American-led airstrikes that left 100 men dead in Syria – including a few Russians (whoops.)
    Shitty weeks like the one Americans just endured are a good reminder of why the #Resistance must hold strong.
    Our intro voice-over winner this week was done by Bros for America listener Bernard Crowden from Los Angeles, CA.  Interested in voicing intro for our podcast? You could be next! Send us a note at [email protected] with the subject line “Bros for America Intro Voice Contest” and give us 50 words on why you should be next!
    Bros for America: The Podcast is executive produced by Alex Mohajer and is co-hosted by Mohajer, Rance Collins, Daniel Fusselman, and Thomas McAbee. The theme music is “It’s Always Too Late To Start” by Chris Zabriskie. The show is produced using Audacity and is powered by BluBerry/Wordpress.

  • Four Progressive Millennials Get On A Call To Talk Politics

    The political landscape in America has changed. For some, the writing on the walls was apparent for some time. For others, like the four gentleman who congregated on a telephone call to talk current events and politics, the shift happened beneath their noses, and when the shit hit the fan, they were thrown off their heels.
    For two years, I, Alex Mohajer, Thomas McAbee, Daniel Fusselman, and Rance Collins campaigned for Hillary Clinton as Bros4Hillary. We made an imprint. We got to meet Hillary Clinton. It sparked a career in political journalism for some of us. But we were bound together by one truth: we were progressives. We were dudes. We were millennials. And we represented an otherwise totally ignored segment of the electorate: people from those demographic groups that love Hillary Clinton.
    For the first time since the 2016 presidential election, all four of us sat down to talk some real, honest-to-god politics.
    It’s true. We are all alternating co-hosts of the Bros4America podcast with myself serving as your faithful Whoopi Goldberg. And while we each happen to be politically progressive, millennial-aged men, not a single one of us voted Bernie Sanders.
    (You’re deep in Hillary country now.)
    “What?! Then you’re not real progressives,” we can practically hear every frothing-at-the-mouth blow-hard Bernie Sanders salad-tosser saying as they furiously masturbate over their PAID $HILLARY sub-reddits while plugging in the details of a Hillary Clinton book signing protest into their IPhones, conveniently ignoring Donald Trump as he guts America.
    Only fitting that the bros ruminate and spend a little bit of time looking at the purist left wing faction of the Democratic Party (which it turns out, are just Republicans), and the frustration with sensible, progressive people who are trying to get forward motion in government but are met with people who obstruct even as they share the same goal.
    The Bros4America Podcast is executive produced and moderated by co-host Alex Mohajer. Joining the panel as co-hosts are Daniel Fusselman, Thomas McAbee, and Rance Collins, with special thanks to Matt Garrett and Bros4Hillary Co-founder Nelson Melegrito (the original Bros4Hillary!) The theme music is It’s Always Too Late To Start by Chris Zabriskie. The Bros4America Podcast produced and mixed using Audacity and distributed by WordPress and BluBerry. Thank you to freeconferencecall.com, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, and all of our listeners at Bros4America (forever Bros4Hillary).
