Eight weeks ago, I jokingly imagined a podcast where scholars could (expertly) hate on historical figures. Almost 100,000 people thought it was a good idea.
I am so incredibly excited to announce that the first episodes of my brand new show This Guy Sucked will be released March 20th!

Joann had a sprawling retail footprint and was a victim of the slow US decline toward cheaper, more disposable clothing, but they also suffered a blow during Trump's first term. Trump's 2018 tariffs increased cost of imports and US equivalents were too expensive for customers.

Kaine: "The president has two Republican houses. If he wants to cut the budget, he's go majorities in both houses. He could just work with them to do it the lawful way...that he's not doing that means he doesn't have confidence that the GOP leadership will go along with the extremity of his actions"

FEEDBACK: A viewer wrote about our decision today to detail the violence against police by the Coloradans pardoned by Trump for J6. We did it because many Coloradans back the Blue. And it should be on the record for when those J6 attackers run for office in Colorado. #copolitics

Every decent police officer in this country should be up in arms about this
Sergeant Gonell @sergeantaqgo.bsky.social sent me this picture. This is his call log. Each call is an automated Dept of "Justice" notification saying "The defendant you testified against is being released from the dept of corrections."
Each defendant assaulted him.

Easiest layup question in media today: ask Republican elected officials if Trump should have pardoned the January 6th folks who violently attacked cops that day.
