    Lots to be Happy About

    Lots to be Happy About

    This is my first episode after COVID, and there is quite a bit to be happy about.  A marriage equality bill has been passed an awaits the President's signature.  Brittany Griner is on her way home today!  The mid-terms are mostly a win for Democrats after Raphel Warnock was reelected.  Gas prices are down and hopefully inflation follows!  Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast!  Be sure to like The Jim Policast on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!

    Mid-Term Results

    Radicals, Radicals, Radicals!

    Radicals, Radicals, Radicals!

    In this episode, I talk about the scare term "Radicals", and how it played into the midterms as well as the pollical climate.  Just because people have far left or right views doesn't mean they are radicals.  It means they have a view that isn't common, but isn't very extreme.  However, if you listen to the fear mongering, these far leaning individuals are radical extremist.  I think we need to get back to understanding that differences in opinions does not mean other are radicals.  Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast!

    Back From Time Off

    Back From Time Off

    Hello, everyone!  I am back from some time off.  I was not expecting to take that much time, and I am sorry about doing so unannounced.  Between me losing my voice after attending a professional sports event and not much going on in US politics due to the midterms, I let one week turn into three.  However, I'm back and I will have a new episode up tonight! Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast!

    Term Limits

    Term Limits

    In this episode I talk about term limits.  Will they work as intended to end politician corruption and apathy?  I don't think term limits will work in most governing bodies.   They would limit the person from getting anything done.  There are better ways to get rid of corruption and apathy.  Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast.  Be sure to like The Jim Policast on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!

    Biden's Cannabis Announcement

    Biden's Cannabis Announcement

    In this episode, I talk about Biden's cannabis announcement.  The announcement is a step in the right direction, but more will need to be done to legalize cannabis.  In Texas, Governor Abbot announced there will be no expunging of cannabis crimes in the state.  This is not a surprise coming from the Republican Governor.    Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast.  Be sure to like The Jim Policast on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and new to Tribel!
