THE HOME FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICS
This Week’s Discussion:
Dave's takeaways from the impeachment hearings. The slam dunk case for impeachment, how dangerous is Trump to this country, the Republican criminal organization, and how vast the swamp is under Donald Trump. What the hearings tell us about Democrats and the American public as well. We also take this opportunity to define extortion and bribery for our listeners who may not have an extensive background in criminal behavior. Finally, we give thanks to the bureaucrats for their service, and for making this impeachment possible.
Also, Trump declares war not just on our institutions, the constitution, our values, and the American people, but now the US Navy as well...all on behalf of murderers and war criminals.

Ep. 11.23.19: What Trump Is NOT Being Impeached For!
Saturday Nov 23, 2019
Saturday Nov 23, 2019
In the midst of the overwhelming case for the impeachment of Donald Trump, and Republican talking points about a Democratic coup, we thought it would be a good idea to talk about some of the things that Democrats have chosen not to impeach Donald Trump for. Turns out, the many instances of misconduct that are not subjecting Trump to impeachment make a pretty overwhelming case as well.
As the unprecedented scale of his misconduct numbs us to Trump's continuing misdeeds, it is good to be reminded of some of the myriad reasons we need to save ourselves from him...and his party! We review just some of his crimes, both common and extraordinary. Just some of the threats he poses to this country and to the entire planet. Just a sampling of the threats posed by Trump and his ilk to the future of our children.
And we consider anew that there is no equivalence between our two political parties.

THE HOME FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICS
This Week’s Discussion:
Just in time for our show this week on the evils of the super-rich, finance billionaire Michael Bloomberg may be about to enter the presidential race. Apparently filling the great need in our government for someone to pursue the interests of Wall Street billionaires.
We think billionaires already have way too much power and this week's special episode is going to advance that argument. We do also address some of the big news of the week, which say a lot about how lucrative it is to be rich. California continues to burn with a primary assist from climate change, but a new report says that while many homeowners are being devastated, the rich are making out like bandits. And the Trump administration says it will roll-back rules designed to limit coal plants' ability to dump poisonous metals in our water supply; so even not poisoning children and cleaning up after themselves are too much for the rich.

THE HOME FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICS
This Week’s Discussion:
As each defense of their criminal president gets shot down by one witness after another, Trump's GOP water carriers just pop up with another dishonest defense elsewhere; only to have the lies from their plastic rodent heads batted down again. Yes, we discuss the latest on impeachment.
But first, we deal with some of the latest news. Trump gets booed at the World Series in a victory for--sorry GOP--both free speech and democracy. ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead, an event worthy of celebration, and one which Trump is taking credit for, but actively undermined. A victory for democracy in a North Carolina state court ruling on democracy reminds us how large the war for democracy is. Finally, some reminders this week about our ruling class, as Boeing's CEO testifies in front of congress and says he feels bad about the 346 people he murdered...for more money. And a blast from the past as formerly-imprisoned junk-bond king Michael Milken is back in the news as a beneficiary of the machinations of our Treasury Secretary.
