Supreme Court Rulings Jul 13, 2023

Show notes

Once again our illustrious Supreme Court teases us with some voting rights decisions the American people agree with and then dumps three very contentious anti diversity, pro Christian, anti Constitutional (in the words of Justice Kagan) decisions on us. Where do we go from here? We, along with the majority of us and the majority of our elected officials, have no idea. Can we even fix this court? Sadly, probably not.

Special Edition: Indictment #2 Jun 16, 2023

Show notes

Indicted by the U.S. Justice Department Former President Trump is determined to darken the already dark times in a Republican America where minority politics rules. For Republicans, loyalty to party rules over the established rule of law and the threat to our democracy is as real as ever.

All Our Woes Jun 06, 2023

Show notes

Judy, Liz and Barb talk about a range of issues, most of which make them crazy. The activist Republican (versus conservative) Supreme Court heads the list. Followed by the erasing of our history of enslavement, Jim Crow, the Holocaust, and more and how it's tied to new white supremecist laws in states like Florida and Texas and the banning of books. We talk about rising female syphilis rates. Listen to these topics and more and be sure not to miss our condom discussion through the generations (three).

Special Edition: Lifetime Gag Order Would Be Nice Apr 07, 2023

Show notes

SPECIAL EDITION, The IndictmentWhen money and power are involved “they” get rid of their conscience and accuse 92 year old George Soros of pulling D.A. Bragg’s Black strings. Dog whistle time. Can we please leave a holocaust survivor alone so he can give money to any racial justice PAC he feels like? Judy is expecting a surprise at the trial on the 34 charges, Barb and Liz are hoping but not so sure. We all agree on what we think would be the best sentence: A LIFETIME GAG ORDER.

We All Deserve Healthy Food Mar 06, 2023

Show notes

"So we're about to go back to SNAP benefits that run out after 20 days and require unhealthy eating habits for seniors and single parents and other low income families to survive! Sad that we can't keep these benefits for our country's poorer citizens. And we are glad that our county jail is not like the Harrison County Indiana Jail where jailors act more like inquisitors from the Middle Ages than protectors of citizens."

2023 Take 1 or if you're in Congress Take 15 Jan 17, 2023

Show notes

Congresswoman Brobert won by 546 votes in the Colorado 3rd. Is that a mandate? No. Congressman Santos lied about just about everything. "Who doesn't lie on their resume?" The three of us! Do we really need a congressional investigation at taxpayer expense on school boards that don't allow right wing white supremacists to VIOLENTLY disrupt their meetings to see if they are picking on conservatives? We think not, but, "Let's not get upset until we know more," says Judy.

Sometimes We Feel Like We're In The Twilight Zone Dec 09, 2022

Show notes

Democrats are not "devilcrats" who eat babies. We're just neighbors to everybody. We're just people who want the same things as everyone else. We feel we shouldn't hate each other. We should disagree, there's a difference. Why do Democrats in rural "red" areas feel that they have to hide their political preference? Politics is about good governance. Isn't it?

Post-election Rehash Nov 19, 2022

Show notes

We start off crowing and feeling, "Blessed to have a 'friggin' governor-elect, Josh Shapiro, who is respected and appeals (for now anyway) to a wide electorate. Not to mention, but we do, our new Senator from Pennsylvania, thanks to help from rural counties, John Fetterman. And, we float onto other topics like the possibility of an autocrat elected in 2024? YIKES!

V-Day 11/8/22 Nov 06, 2022

Show notes

You may not hear from us again if you don't get your friends to vote with you Tuesday (or before). So much is at stake. Also, Judy, Barb and Liz talk about misinformation, Russia's agenda with regard to our midterm elections, and doctors leaving states that now ban reproductive healthcare, Judy's nails and our cute purple glasses.
