      We just got home to Canada from Mexico with 2 layovers in the U.S. My husband and I have decided we will stay off of American soil until there's a different government. We initially decided this because we don't want to support a country that is so hostile to ours. But it might help us live longer if this is how unsafe it is getting.

      It's actually true. Reagan started this bull crap in the 80's by firing air traffic controllers when their union went out on strike! He replaced them with incompetent scabs! He cut back on meat and fish inspections. He brought in the chronic problem in America of SALMONELLA in eggs and chicken. Before Reagan, we kept eggs on the counter without danger of salmonella. He drastically cut back in inspectors to save money to pass to his 1% buddies!

      Patel's advancement is one of those classic circumstances people often see in the private sector : advancement through nepotism/cronyism and/or good old-fashioned sucking up and kissing @ss. And Patel has been a very zealous MAGAbro in addition to being ethically compromised. So, in Donnie's book, he's an 'outstanding' choice. And it helps that the Senate GOP has been cowed into subservience....

    RFK really sees me. He gets how unhappy I am on Medicaid with my [checks notes] $4 copays and $0 deductibles. Did he confuse Medicaid with Medicare? Which is a terrifying thought, given that he is probably about to lead every single health-related department in the country. Also, there are only around 3.5 million babies born in the U.S. per year, so there aren't even 10 million babies in the country, let alone 30 million babies on Medicaid.

    I will say…
    Having gone off an SSRI due to non-insurance, it sucked. It was the not a “jonesing” issue, but the withdrawal of not having a balancing drug in my system. Going off a medication that helps me positively regulate certain aspects of my brain chemistry (for the best, btw), IS qualifiedly different than going through a heroin (an objectively harmful narcotic) withdrawal.

If our elected officials can’t do their jobs in these cases, maybe there should be a panel of citizens that question these people. They will collect large paychecks, and make decisions, in our important agencies, that literally affect every aspect of our daily lives.

    We need to build an organization that focuses on direct action. One capable of carrying out boycotts, strikes, and mass protests. The reason why we are in this mess is we haven't done this. Part of the work of such an organization would be educating the masses. We should have been at this at least 12 years ago. Maybe you could do a show about the history of organizing.(The labor wars, the suffragette movement, the anti-war movement, gay rights movement, black lives matter movement, etc) If we don't build such an organization we are doomed. We're getting a late start. Let's go, working people unite !!

    Trump is going to throw out any and all possible faults of this to keep the blame away from him or any of his decisions. I mean the optics are horrible. He is firing all these people, and harassing all these people trying to get them to quit, and suddenly there is a plane crash. In his mind, he quickly goes to "they are gonna blame me" and he can't let the process play out and find out what actually happened, he has to get out in front of it. It really is pathetic.

    SSRIs do need to be tapered, but it’s meant to be done with your psychiatrist or other prescribing provider. That said, opiate withdrawal can be quite ugly. (I worked in a drug treatment program in the 90s.) But staying off opiates can be a lifelong struggle. People need psychosocial support, and medications like Suboxone can help. Tim, would be great if you could have a Board Certified psychiatrist with a specialty in addictions on your show.

    "How communication is right now" is not acceptable, Tom Vietor. It’s blatant racism, and that should never be tolerated at any level. This is why these things continue to happen-because people avoid confronting the truth and downplay unacceptable behavior. If Tim hadn’t pushed back, or if it had been another host, this would have gone unchallenged. As a person of color, we need more hosts like Tim. Thank you for not letting that go. This is one of the reasons I stopped listening to Pod Save America - I could tell they are not seriously affected by this President.

The creator(s?) essentially had a manifesto in the Bitcoin White Paper that railed against "Fiat" currency, banking, and hit just about every other Libertarian/prepper financial-system-collapsing talking point.

    In all of these conversations about the leadership vacuum in Congress, and how there is no one out there fighting, it concerns me that no one mentions Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas. She can grab the attention of the media with the best of them, and unlike circus performers like MTG, she backs it up with facts, knowledge of the law, and fierce intellect. Yes, she's only on her second term, but she and AOC are the future of the Democratic party if they want to win in this nihilistic populist reality.
