Simple, digestible explanations of all things American Politics because it's easier to reengage when you know what's going on.
Is America Competitive?
Trump thinks American wages are too HIGH for us to be “competitive”. My question is: Competitive for whom and by what metric?

Women are Furious: A Conversation with the new President of Emily’s List Jessica Mackler
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 2 hodinami
Fixing the crisis America is in is hard, but it’s also simple. We can’t stop talking about reproductive rights because it’s not just about stripping women of the right to manage their own lives and bodies, it’s about the slippery slope we find ourselves on if we accept that government can just take our essential human rights. At the end of the day, it’s not just about abortion, it’s about prece...

Get Your House in Order America: with Democratic congresswoman and Minority Whip Katherine Clark
zhlédnutí 7KPřed 19 hodinami
The Republicans are telling us their plans for America’s future and it is terrifying. The Democrats, in contrast, are vocally offering the opposite. Where the last Democratic House was the most effective in modern American history, passing more legislation passed than any Congress since FDR’s New Deal, the current Republican House has been the least effective, least cohesive since the Civil War...

College Campus Crisis: A Conversation with David Rothkopf
zhlédnutí 2,8KPřed 14 dny
I’ve been watching what’s been happening on college campuses with real uncertainty. I don’t believe we’re getting the full story from the media. Much like the horserace neck and neck BS they’re peddling for the election, I feel as if traditional media is pushing narratives with the protests that don’t tell the full picture and it leaves people feeling outraged or confused. As today’s guest Davi...
They Don’t Care if we Die: with President of Reproductive Freedom for All Mini Timmaraju
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 21 dnem
Today we’re joined by Mini Timmaraju, President of Reproductive Freedom for All, to discuss how reproductive freedom isn’t just about access to the health care of abortion, but about how we think society should function. Do we believe our most fundamental and personal decisions belong to the government, or do we believe they belong to us? At the end of the day, it all comes back to democracy, a...
Presidential Immunity??

SCOTUS just heard a case on presidential immunity. We shouldn’t be here, but since we are, it’s incredibly clear what we need to do.

The Goldilock’s Economy: A Conversation with economist Michael Mezzatesta
zhlédnutí 4KPřed 28 dny
It’s not that everything that’s happened in capitalism is bad, but when it comes to economics, perhaps we should be asking what this endless growth and for whom? Who is all this growth for, and what is it worth, if it really only benefits a tiny silver of our population. What if there was a Goldilocks version of the economy? Where it wasn’t communism, and it wasn’t winner take all capitalism, b...
American Pregnancy

Always great interviews.
He's literally telling you what he's going to do and people will still get mad at Biden and let Trump win SMH. Those people's lives are going to be absolute hell just like everyone else's If they don't get their acts together. Vote against Trump period
The man who bankrupts every business he owns is telling business how to operate. He needs to go to jail!!
I wish he said that regarding healthcare, work week, and vacations.
Don't drink the blue kool-aid.
And millions of brainwashed idiots will vote for this criminal! This country is doomed! Get out while you can!
America has never been all that competitive, isolationism and protectionism have been the order of the day
The conservatives vote against abortion rights, my question is: What if your wife, married daughter, or your married sister have a non-viable fetus. Now she's forced to give birth to a non-viable fetus, and forced to put their lives on the line. And... the newborn fetus is suffering gasping for air, then the newborn going through a horrible suffering death. Until it dies. Are the conservatives really Pro-life, or are they Pro-savagery ?
I hope enough women are mad to turn this around.
As someone who lives in a country (Australia) that has free & affordable healthcare - just flabergasted by the corruption of the USA medical system. Our taxes pay for it rather than subsidising millionaires like USA.
Read 'The Spirit Level' by Pickett and Wilkinson for the actual studies and data that show how our income inequality, the highest of any western democracy, makes our society the most dysfunctional, sick western country as well. Everyone is adversely affected no matter where you are on the income distribution scale.
In Georgia, women did not care as we just had a State Supreme Court seat on the ballot and the Candidate John Barrow for women's rights, and choice did not win!
Ive been trying to exain to folks that our system.prioritozes making money over everything else. Its avtually doomsday funny when folks are like "yeah, what else is there?" Bevause think about a society the prioritizes family and how thatd be dofferent. Or one that prioritizes academia, or health, or the environment (man made and not) and tell me that all of those worlds wouldnt be better. "Competing with other countries" most of OECD is playing a different game...
Thanks to Trump at and t paid one percent in taxes.
Our CEO's wages are WAYY TOO HIGH. The wealthy don't pay their fair share of taxes, CORPORATIONS PAY EVEN LESS. Let's bring back Reagan's tax brackets.... THAT'S A GOOD START.
That is 💯
Yes, a fuck lot better, we can do!!! But one side, ain't playing by the rules.
And whose fault, do you think that is??? Republican lobbying, corporations, looking to boost their profits. There's, your answer………… Leigh, your right on spot, with this one😉👍👏👏!!!
Trump/SCOTUS did this, never forget! Always vote blue
Reduce the salaries of CEOs and other executives along with restoring the taxes to before the loopholes.
yes...lets have the government take over all corporations! communism for the win!
He's delusional...from blonde hair...to his orange Cheetos toes!!!🤦🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️‼️‼️‼️
You have ONE issue. ONE and that's all you care about. EVIL
My wife is from the Philippines a poorer country and they have cheap (10 percent of our cost) health care and top rated hospitals. That is why we are retiring there.
Ladies of America wake up! Get angry and fight against the removal of your rights and attempts to reduce you to property!
thanks for the video
Only ONE Nation, The USA, has an open border taking all of the worlds' excess and unemployable labor. Those that do not work get free stuff from us that pay taxes. Of course subsidizing the illegals is included in product pricing through government fees and regulations.
We will win!!😘💋
This time, may Boudicca kick ass and live to tell her granddaughters about it.
Hot air..no backup data...no defined differences of societal security. Trump in reality
Couldn't people in the Congress and senate start going after like viagra and stuff to make a statement, Or Would that be petty.

Welcome to, the RED STATES ☺️😄😆!!!
Tax the wealthy.
China in the color revolution took all wealth from the rich....every single bit, they took the farms, the buildings and companies. After 2 generations, those families were at the top again. So its work and IQ that get you to the top. tax is just theft.
Your a Ray of Sunlight Leigh! Keep it Up.👍💙💙
Its been said before but its so ridiculous that Republicans care so much for children in the womb, the minute they are born they couldn't care less about them!
We aren't competitive? Who are we competing with? Ghana? Sudan? Pakistan? He wants us to rush to the bottom
Talk to people, and vote. And again. And again. And again.
Wow ‘tax the rich?’ Groundbreaking insight!
Wealth tax. Now.
How many of your videos are gonna be debunked before you stop lying. Remember under trump when inflation was at 1.6% under biden it went over 9 and now its sitting at 3.4. Ps. If your mad about billionaire businessmen and not multi millionaire POLITICIANS, you sre completely manipulated
Our wages are too high?
She is so smart and eloquent ,thank you ! We all need to hear the atrocity that will come to this country if the orange menace wins !
She has rose color glasses on. Overall wages under joe is down 0.7%. While under Trump it was up 16%
Hahaha. Wages are too high? No, this is about getting more money to the ultra rich. Disgusting liar. Vote 💙 for the people not the billionaires. They are just fine.
I personally am a big fan of lowering wages as far as possible.(not mine of course, I’m essential).No more minimum wage! 😹
Wages are too high from the stable genius who managed to bankrupt casinos, never paid contractors & various workers for work done & let's not forget his lower taxes promise for the middle/working class and bringing jobs to the US.
You're right PG, Trump doesn't know what he's talking about. But by trashing the economy to get elected, his corporate cronies will finance him to keep from paying their fair share of taxes and parity with their pay packages. The average CEO makes 36 percent more than the highest paid employee. And as you know, home prices went up from the corporate buy-out that President Biden said he'd fix but hasn't.
We could start by making the three companies that own all the grocery stores stop price gouging, stop subsidizing oil companies, make corporations pay their fair share of taxes. Quit letting all these LLCs buy up apartment buildings and full neighborhoods and raising rents beyond what people can afford. I see a lot of things that could change besides Donald Trump giving tax breaks to his rich friends. Vote blue 💙🇺🇸💙
Thank You !!!!!!
Literally, 8 year olds aren't able to get pregnant. Kinda gotta start having periods for that. The odds of an 8 year old both being pubescent and getting raped are ridiculously low. I'm pro-abortion and you all need to stop lying - it only brings down the cause.
