    The Daily Blast: The Alito Flag Scandal Just Got Worse. What’s the Next Move for Dems?

    The Daily Blast: The Alito Flag Scandal Just Got Worse. What’s the Next Move for Dems?

    Earlier this week, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito refused to recuse himself from hearing Jan. 6-related cases amid controversy over an upside-down U.S. flag outside Alito’s home that’s associated with Donald Trump’s “Stop the Steal” effort. Then, on Thursday, Chief Justice John Roberts denied Democrats’ demand for a meeting, adding to the imperiousness around the conservative justices and making the Alito scandal look worse. We talked to Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, a senior member of the Judiciary Committee, about what he called the “omerta” code for right wing justices—and whether it’s time for hearings into the Alito mess. Listen to this episode here.

    The Daily Blast: Inside Trump-MAGA’s Secretive Plot to Come After Your Birth Control

    The Daily Blast: Inside Trump-MAGA’s Secretive Plot to Come After Your Birth Control

    Donald Trump recently said he’s “looking at” imposing restrictions on contraception if he is elected president, and even promised a concrete policy. Then he quickly walked it back. But certain constituencies on the right have not given up—far from it. We chatted with Politico reporter Alice Miranda Ollstein, co-author of a great new piece detailing the blueprint that Trump’s MAGA allies are developing for him to restrict birth control through executive action, about how far this could get if he regains the White House. It isn’t pretty. Listen to this episode here.

Alternative to legacy media

For those who want to understand what is actually happening in America. Yes, the frank truth scares me, and I modulate intake so that I can process it emotionally, but knowing/understanding is the critical first step. We must work together to build safety, peace, and stability into our communities.

Bravo, Noga!

...26:44 April 3, 2024, “I’m curious, from the three of you, what do you wish Joe Biden had done?” Noga Tarnopolsky asked David, Eddie, and Meir Kahane’s own Rosa Brooks regarding U.S. policy in the Land of the Chosen People of the Kahane Master Race. The Pundits’ responses were, at best, mediocre if not downright pathetic. Bravo, Noga! Bravo! Encore! Encore!

Right?

Please stop saying “Right?” Over and over. This is now a national epidemic, as awful as vocal fry. It sounds insecure, needy of reassurance, bush league, and beneath the intelligence of the show.
