- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- With so much happening on the campaign trail, we turn to Jamelle Bouie for his first visit to the podcast. We discuss Donald Trump and JD Vance's attacks on the truth with their harmful comments on Haitian immigrants and their lies about abortion. We look at different Senate races around the country and what they could mean for the next President. And we get into Project 2025 and examine just how far Republicans are willing to let Trump go should he become President again. Spoiler alert: it would be terrifying!

This pod consistently rises above the level of mediocrity.
I might need to raise it in my estimation.
Ya know....for a change...😂
I'M DISABLED SENIOR HALF MY MEDICAL PROVIDERS ARE IMMIGRANTS
I love this guy. This is the first time I've heard Jamelle Bouie speak! Maybe we can get the filibuster done next year when we no longer have Manchin & Sinema. I still hope you decide to return to the Senate, Al. Sanity is always in fashion, especially now.
@BeatTrump ❤ I agree 100%. I'm a new fan of Mr. Bouie. I hope Al has him back again.
MLK on acid? Robinson is more like MLK on bath salts.
I didn't have Leo Kotke played through a phaser on my bingo card.
I’m sorry. You can put any disguise you want on Trump’s face. The physique is a dead giveaway.
I was thinking the same. Hard to hide a 🐋. 😂
I hope his disguise is a clown costume. That would be accurate😂
He looks like a Vogon, and I'm certain that his poetry is horrible.
Not to mention his strange gait.
Isn't it WEIRD that both Trump and JD have immigrant wives?
Weird in that what is good for them is not good for other people. They are obviously full of hot air spreading hate, just like Trump.
Actually JD's wife was born in the States. Her parents are immigrants.
We need immigrant women to fill those jobs that American women will not do.
@@hereigoagain5050You mean marry Republican men? Lol
Wives who moved their entire families over before denouncing chain migration... 💙💙
Al, I'm one of many many people who lost power thanks to Hurricane Helene. It's too hot to sleep, so I'm sitting in my car, charging my phone. I treated myself to a little computer time (even though I'm trying to save all kinds of power) and you popped up! Lots of scary things in your podcast tonight, but a relief for a minute from my personal problems. Of course, America's problems are my problems as well. Thanks anyway. Fascinating discussion with Mr. Buie.
Hope everything is better now. And no problems getting back to normal. I'm praying for all of you on the southeast coast ,inland too!
I feel for you and those affected by the hurricane. I live in south Louisiana and know how awful suffering through that type of storm is for tons of people. Heard my state is sending help. Hope you all get yourselves back on track soon.
Hey out there! We care about you. It will be all right. I was just looking at the stars and wondering how nice the sky would look if we lost power here. Not to minimize your difficulty, but the Earth is still there and America is still ready to help.
Jamelle Bouie is one of the sane folks. I avoid the New York Times however because they are so obviously pulling for Trump to win.
good discussion.
The secret service announcement is more than idiotic.
wait what? That has to be an Al joke....
It’s time. You know. For a change.
Many gracias for that !
It can't be stressed enough that the public needs clear and concise explanations of how tariffs work and who pays what because trump has told millions of people that foreign countries will be paying the U.S. government money for imposing such tariffs. He tells them we will be taxing foreign countries which is so blatantly false and misleading. People are buying what he says because they have no idea what tariffs are or why sometimes they are good for U.S. businesses to compete in the market but not for raising revenue for the government.
DESPICABLE. NOT WEIRD.
Instead of running on universal healthcare - which would have passed if Roosevelt had survived to the end of WWII - we should stress universal citizenship education.
I don't remember having a class called civics when I went through junior high and high school in the 1970s. There was Model UN as an afterschool program, but that shows you how screwed up the UN is - it doesn't tell you how america works politically.
The rumor mill was constantly saying, "Your vote doesn't count" when I was growing up. Nothing was effectively counteracting that, and no one was trying to track down where that nonsense was coming from.
No one is informed that Congress is written into the US Constitution to be hobbled and slow by white, landed gentry, who didn't mind viewing human beings as cattle/rabble/unruly mobs or owning them as slaves.
I found that out after graduating high school - that should have been in my junior high texts. I had a class in high school called Buying a House. We should have had one for running for congress and passing a bill. Instead, I learned the bill part as a Saturday morning cartoon - along with reminding me about conjunctions. If the species is smart enough to learn about bills being in committee by musical animation, then we should be able to follow how the rest of the government works in a teacher led class.
But both parties want to keep that a mystery apparently so we as "citizens" don't worry our pretty little heads about it. 🙄
I had Civics class in high school. Basically how government works.
In the mid 60's in high school I had Civics class.
I had civics in US history classes in middle-school and high school.
I really love this podcast. These are amazing interviews. A little on the short side, but I’m needy.
That one guy in Nebraska was the deciding vote...maine now is ditching their split...way to go Lindsey Graham
💙
😊🧡💫🕊🫂
And Vance is a Senator supposedly representing ALL Ohioans
Don't listen to polls. They just ask whoever is standing around in the parking lot at the time.
Thanks Al and Jamelle! You know, for Joy and change.
I love ya, Al, but let your guest speak.
One of the Knights Who Say Nyt?
💙💙
I'm hoping Hogan can pull off the upset over property tax dodger AlsoCrooks
Too late. I cancelled my NYT subscription. The opener claimed they can’t call out GOP lies because that would be partisan.
Journalism’s dead at the NYT.
on tariffs the important part was never mentioned .. so if the 'typical' family pays an extra $4000/year .. where exactly does the money go ?? does it make its way into the US treasury ? and then who decides how and where does it get spent .. ? only telling us that it is bad and leaving out the other 'detail' doesn't make it an explanation .. we expect more from this analysis ..
Springfield reminds me of the monorail episode of Simpsons & eating cats reminds me of ALF. Lately, I have been having visions of ALF as the monorail conductor, and ALF is too short to operate the monorail, nor is he smart enough. ALF crashes the train, the train full of dogs that look like ALF 🐕 alf is the original cat eating illegal 👽
MAGA IS EATING BRAINS
1st response is to put the bong down. But on reflection....
It's politically self-defeating to give money to lower/middle income folks because it causes inflation. They quickly forget the benefits (more money) but remember the pain (higher prices), even if the benefits are greater than the pain. Giving money to the rich is politically brilliant because they use the extra money to buy assets. The stock market goes up, voters are happy, and upper income voters remember their benefactors.
Al and team, I haven’t started listening yet but already I am thrilled you are featuring THIS NYT Op-ed writer. They continue to employ one who has deeply failed at being a responsible voice. I am baffled as to how such a person could continue to be given a platform. Yes, I am referring to you, Michelle Goldberg. Off I go to listen to this one which I am sure will be a great one.
Perhaps hes gleaning from his personal experience and Melania actually had another baby but then decided to off it after it was delivered because....well one self centered over coiffed FLOTUS cant look at fashion magazines and care for an Infant too CAN YOU???
I like AL and Leo kotke but your intro is so lame. That whole "for a change thing " - not funny. And really that bit from Leo Kotke is not his best 🙄. Why am I typing this on my little keyboard? Utoob comment section. Kinda a waste of time.
Migrants are willing to do anyting to start a life in America and picking fruit is one of those jobs, a job most American's won't do... So my question is this... If Tr*mp deports 30 million people (give or take), who is going to pick the tomatoes to make all of the ketchup he puts on his food? (and walls)...
Love you Al... Please conside coming back... 💙
If they can't get rid of the filibuster, then they need to bring back the talking filibuster. Make the Republicans have to stand up and read Green Eggs and Ham for 20 hours or more. We'll be able to get legislation passed again.
For a change, this was a great one!
Great show!
20th!
Wow. I've been toying with adding great papers/Atlantic to my subscription accounts. Mr Boille ? just made NYT the 1st. choice.
Mr Jamelle Bouie.
An idea of disquise, for donald, to aide U. S. Secret Service, when he is on the golf course. Recommend donald look and move athletic; have and display golf skills and techniques that reflect 50 years of playing. And, his game speaks for itself. Finally, he's trusted to honor and respect golf rules - and to have a modicum of decency and character.
Put Trump in a pig costume.
