Trump's Cruelty Machine Aug 03, 2025

Pain is policy, and fear is the fuel...

Before this is over, will brown immigrants be the only ones for whom America's freedom becomes a temporary and revocable condition?

Horrified by this Cult of Cruelty? How We Fight Back Jul 30, 2025

Show notes

America is now on a watchlist for the the health of civil society for “sustained attacks on civic freedoms.” We have to turn this around. Did Trump just confess to his Epstein role? Is he treating "the financially-lubricated sex trafficking of women as mere [employment]?" How does a 16 yr old come to work at a spa at Mar-a-Lago? Will Trump pardon Diddy? Does Trump have a special place in his heart for the trafficking and abuse of young women and girls? Democrats did something important for democracy and the mainstream media ignored it. Or are the Dems not fighting loud enough with their message? Are we now living in the age of "Trump traveling terrorism?" If you don't agree with Trump - it's scary to travel.
