U.S. Blues

This month marked an important anniversary in American history: The 1 year anniversary of U.S. Blues. But also some historical touchstone involving planes and buildings. We'll take a (belated) look back at some of the most galling, nationalistic idiocy to come out of one of the stupidest eras in American history--the splashback of which is still raining down today.

Plus, we talk Elder abuse in California, death panels in Idaho, and swole clackers in Trinidad.

Also, big shout out to Riley W, the dude that posterized some anti-mask moron and paid for it with his job. Please consider tossing some bucks Riley's way:

If you're wondering how it's even possible that a right wing nut job could potentially be elected governor of California next week, we attempt to break it down for you. We're talking California recall election on this week's Blues. 

In the ongoing, cutthroat competition to be America's most offensively embarrassing state, Texas just said "hold my beer." We offer some thoughts and solidarity for the women of the Lone Star State. 

Plus, so many Covid deniers died this week, we felt it necessary to spend some time "In Memoriam." Also, sex toys are really expensive, y'all... 

America's foreign policy turds have created yet another splashback. Join us for a recap of how we got into Afghanistan, who really won, and why now is the 2nd best time to walk away right after any other time in the last 20 years. 

U.S. Blues returns from our summer vacation to find rising case counts, anti-mask protests, and *checks notes* murder hornets? 2020 Part Two is in effect and like most sequels, this one is much stupider than the original. Tune in as we take aim at this atrocious timeline with mockery, judgment, and some serious Roy Kent energy. 

The GQP is doubling down on misinformation. It's a cult and the members are willing to die for it. Plus, the bathroom wars continue, QAnon turns on one of its own, and Matt Gaetz finds himself unable to hold an event within 1,000 yards of Disneyland. Remain seated please for another episode of U.S. Blues. 

In which we wave a belated flag for the 4th of July and explore the difference between patriotism and its contemporary GQP death cult variant through the words of the great American philosopher, Matthew McConaughey. 

Also, history buffs rejoice! We take a look at C-SPAN's updated rankings of the American presidents and remind you of why Franklin Pierce was trash. Plus, a look at the totally realistic, not at all fake plan to restore Trump to the White House by next month on a cosmically-inspired edition of the Blues...

For you fans of dystopian fiction, we take a look at a hypothetical timeline where Trump's coup succeeded. Also we find time to twerk on the grave of Rudy Giuliani's legal career, check in with the Supreme Court, talk about the Chauvin sentencing, and hop aboard the Free Britney movement. It' s U.S. Blues, bitch!

We celebrate Father's Day the only way that U.S. Blues knows how: by taking a deep dive into the toxic strict father morality that lies at the sweaty, gravy-soaked heart of conservatism. Plus, we celebrate a new federal holiday and give a big old meh to some of the Supreme Court's handiwork on this episode of biblical proportions.

We discuss Chipotle raising prices, dropping COVID infections and HR 40. It's time for America to really look at the case for reparations. This episode is a shotgun blast of issues that you are not going to want to miss!
