    Republicans say childless Americans should have fewer rights

    Republicans say childless Americans should have fewer rights

    Republicans love to claim they're the part of "family values" and that they're the true constitutionalists in the room. But this week their messaging revealed their true colors like never before.
    From JD Vance saying childless people should have less of a say in our political system, to his bizarre claim that childless cat ladies are running the country, to his insinuation that Kamala Harris' role as a step parent was less than and not real parenting - the GOP VP nominee has been a walking clown show all on his own.
    But he's been joined by others in his party who have attacked LGBTQ familes, plus a large number of Republican Senators who are working to give socialists at the FTC and "experts" at the CDC the ability to tell parents how their kids can use the internet. 70 Senators have signed onto this legislation, known as KOSA, that not only strips parents of their rights, it also allows the government to censor free speech online and collect massive amounts of data that put all of our futures and privacy at risk.
    All in all, Republicans just had their most anti-family week of all time

    Project 2025: the good, the bad, and the hysterical

    Project 2025: the good, the bad, and the hysterical

    Never has a white paper made so much of a splash as the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025. Since when do normal people even hear about such things? This week, I comb through what's actually in this thing, who is behind it, and how much people need to be concerned about its contents from a sane and centrist point of view.

    Candace Owens Goes Full Holocaust Denier

    Candace Owens Goes Full Holocaust Denier

    In politics, the best policy is usually to keep your enemies close - you often need your opponents in order to get things done afterall. But as the grifter class on the right sinks lower and lower, there's also a need to police your movement and ensure those representing it aren't doing more harm than good. 
    Such is the case with Candace Owens, whose recent fall from grace has included some very inflammatory remarks about the holocaust. This week, Hannah digs into her history of flirting with anti-semites, and discusses the true impacts of her work.
    Plus, Hannah gives a full breakdown on one of the most important policitical decisions of the past decade: the overturn of Chevron deference. As fake news flies about this SCOTUS deicision and its results, Hannah explains how this is actually a tremendous win for the American people.

    Justin Timberlake goes to jail, and Julian Assange gets out

    Justin Timberlake goes to jail, and Julian Assange gets out

    Justin Timberlake is a grade A asshat and gets arrested for drinking and driving. Shocker. But should drinking and driving laws even be on the books? And, in a monumental week, Julian Assange is FINALLY FREE after 12 years of persecution by the US government for doing his job as a journalist and reporting our war crimes. Plus, a bad SCOTUS decision says the government can keep censoring you on social media. And, is the clean girl aesthetic a slippery slope to alt-right nationalism?

    Republican politicians scrub "life begins at conception" from their websites as Evangelicals vote against IVF

    Republican politicians scrub "life begins at conception" from their websites as Evangelicals vote against IVF

    The Southern Baptist convention took a massive vote against IVF this month and in response hypocritical Republican politicians are desperately trying to distance themselves. But can you believe "life begins at conception" and support most forms of IVF? I dig in.
    Plus, I take JD Vance to task for a recent mornic immigration post, Cardi B weighs in on the draft, and Condoleezza Rice drops a massive mic on our education system. Lastly, TPUSA throws yet another cringe event.

Based

Hannah and Brad never disappoint to hit on the key topics and address them in a way that you can appreciate.

Getting worse not better

I used to love this show but Hannah needs to take a step back and realize she is incredibly condescending she is in her delivery. She is really starting to sound quite elitist. Not a good look and it is becoming unbearable to listen to.

Brad PILLOW canceled‼️
