If there are any podcasters out there who are interested in having an historian talk about things like how to fix the Electoral College and make it consistent with American democracy; or what the American Revolution was really all about let me know.
Anyone who seriously wants to end the oligarchy that dominates our political system needs to focus on dismantling the two-party system. The oligarchy and the two-party system are one and the same. I hope Bernie and AOC are paying attention to this fact.

It drives Jonathan Turley crazy when I remind everyone that he is just Mike Lindell with tenure. So, please make sure not to amplify this message.👇

Thomas Zimmer’s point explains why we MUST end the two-party monopoly in our democracy. The center-right will merge with the fascists rather than risk losing control over the Democratic Party. The center-right is NOT the majority of the party, but the control most of the money.

Anyone who seriously wants to end the American oligarchy must be prepared to do the following:
1. Dismantle the two-party monopoly on our democracy; and
2. Establish publicly funded campaigns across the board for all federal, state, and local offices.
Otherwise, you’re just paying lip service.

CNN just reported a new app called ICEBlock, and MAGA is furious – it tracks ICE officers, so people can see them coming, and escape before being illegally deported. Trump and Kristi Noem do NOT want anyone knowing about it: ICEBlock.

My latest: Jasmine Crockett is clear choice to lead Oversight Dems
I told you I wouldn’t pick sides in this race because I don’t have a vote. Then I realized it’s up to all of us to make sure our party gets this one right.

Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

Both the Republican Party and Democratic Party are dominated by authoritarian capitalists (ACs) the difference is that Republican ACs are more ruthless, brutal, and are willing to resort to fascism in order to win than Democrats. If push comes to shove Democratic ACs will join with Republican ACs.

We need to have a national conversation about ending the two-party system that so severely limits our democracy. It allows for the oligarchs to dominate our democracy, and the two-party system concedes control to the oligarchs. Expanding democracy is the antidote to authoritarianism.
