    Pissed Off Bartender Speed Runs The News - September 11th

    Pissed Off Bartender speed runs the week faster than the RNC Midterm crashes Grindr. This week: Trump attacks Canada by punishing American workers, a virtually useless child tax credit, ICE runs beanies for priors, the White House website drops an online arcade nobody asked for, Dementia Don survives 9/11 all over again, Trumpapalooza kicks off in Dallas, AI is probably going to kill us all or at least make things more expensive and a GOP hopeful goes to felonious lengths to sabotage his opponent. Buckle up. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Guns, Grifters & Grassroots Resistance w/ Robert Arnold

    Welcome to the premiere of TRUTH SHOTS, where political propaganda gets called out with no corporate polish, no party line b******t, and no chaser. In Episode 01, we take aim at Stephen Miller and his bargain bin fascism, investigate how Asmongold feeds right wing radicalization through an outrage machine built for millions, and sit down with Robert Arnold, better known as Defiance13. Robert joins us to discuss Southern progressive identity, responsible left wing gun ownership, political tribalism, voting rights, and his 1,000 mile walk to Memphis. It is an honest conversation about resisting authoritarianism, organizing outside the usual political bubbles, and fighting for people the powerful would rather forget. Subscribe to TRUTH SHOTS, share the episode, and tell us which story deserves the next shot. https://1000milestomemphis.com/ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
