Very good and concise summary of the insanity and grift of the current administration and its cohorts at the moment. I appreciate your honest overview and hope you are able to maintain your own sanity while you are exposing all this whack-a-doodle craziness being created by your relative. No matter how demented and disgusting he is, it can't always be easy for you to confront a relative's words and miserable behavior on a daily basis. Thank you for standing your ground and having integrity.

I sincerely hope that enough people have the sense to vote for Democrats. Then maybe someone in congress will do their job and rein in the orange goon. He has done enough damage already.

Yet another informative and valuable report on developments in the US (I'm Canadian and live in Toronto). I listen to your podcasts frequently (I've subscribed and made a donation), read your emails, and greatly admire and appreciate all that you are doing for your fellow Americans. As a Canadian, I'm trying to learn from all of this in order to be more effective as a voter and canvasser, etc. in my own country. Thank you, Mary, and team for all you do! Take good care - as best you can.

He has a LOT of nerve taking another $10 billion from us taxpayers for his grift as the "board of peace." BS! Rebuilding Gaza after destroying it is one thing. Making it Rump country is downright putrifyingly disgusting.

I'm proud to be an American, but totally ashamed of Donald Trump. I apologize to Canadians for the stupidity of tariffs and other dumb policies of Donald Dick.

God help us to hang on as long as this madness is upon us. God bless America.

Excellent work to you and your team! The U.S. just won the gold in women’s figure skating!

And apparently Kash Patel is jetting over to the Olympics to watch hockey, courtesy of the taxpayers, to the tune of $75,000.00.

Yep, apparently the orange goon isn't the only grifter.

I tried to listen to donald speak in Georgia yesterday and just couldn't make it through the idiotic crap. Can't make me believe people willingly go in person to his rallies. They must be paid to clap and cheer, the little I heard. Your show helps me calm down with validation of the absurd. donald fleecing of our tax dollars is like a gushing open wound! I picture his goofy smile with the idea he is enriching HIMSELF and still spouting his HATE. Deranged Putin Puppet.

To anyone who's feeling exhausted: Tap into your fury. Exhaustion takes a back seat when fury takes the stage.

Trump Tariffs have been on the books for 10 months, why did it take SCOTUS more than a month or two to make their decision to limit them? What do they know now they didn't know 8 months ago?Their delay has caused $ billions to be tied up, some irretrievable?

Why haven't political and legal actions happened right after ALL the Epstein files weren't reeleased in 30 days? Is redacting done not to protect anyone rightfully or just to cover up? The Gaza international stability force just a fascist goon squad like what many consider ICE? Half our country is uninformed or out to lunch. Many are too busy trying to make ends meet caused by a third of the country getting rich off Tax Cuts for the Rich 4 times since Reagan, 3rd or 4th by the head of the dictatorship in DC. Huge tax breaks for business. Somebody said in the animal world there are for example progressive squirrels and conservative squirrels, so we must assume our country is run by a far right radical fascist squirrel. One who gets his most glee from making others as miserable as he can. It's just an animal farm. The far left is just as dangerous to us as the far right however. The only good that can come of this is enough people may wake up to what happened in Germany in 1933 is exactly what can happen here, only far worse if that's possible. The ethnic groups may be different, but the severe consequences for most of us can be even worse.

The media states the Us to hold nuclear talks alone. Many of us don't trust the POTUS any more than we trust Iran, so other countries should be present to any or all such talks such as France, the UK, Norway. A secret pact can lead to our sons and daughters going to war. The US has what many consider to be a far right extremist government.
