Will Biden make the rail Workers whole after stiffing them? Ted Cruz & Lindsey Graham make a mockery of military vaccine policy. GenZ will be the force in politics for the foreseeable future. Irresponsible Senators Ted Cruz & Lindsey Graham put our military at risk with their vaccine stance: Senators Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham show that they would stop at nothing to appease the bottom feeding in their base using the vaccine issue. Gen Z Voters Are a Force for Progressive Politics. Can Politicians Keep Up?: Young voters are repelled by the far right, but that doesn't mean they'll always show up for squishy centrists. The midterm elections took some time to sort out. But one thing was made clear quickly: Gen Z voters are a force to be reckoned with—for both parties. That's a lesson elected officials need to start taking now—from this year's lame duck session to next year's divided government. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://a

New Zealand Prime Minister destroys a sexist reporter. Graham & Cruz object to vaccines in the military. The Senate is deceiving the Working class. The Colorado basin faces catastrophe. Sexist reporter mic-dropped by New Zealand PM at presser between two young female Prime Ministers: Jacinda Ardern, New Zealand Prime Minister, embarrassed a reporter for his sexist remark at a presser between her and the young female Finland Prime Minister Sanna Marin, a mic-drop moment. Experts Warn ‘Doomsday Scenario’ for Colorado River Basin Possible in 2023: “The problem with massive projects like Lake Powell and the Glen Canyon Dam,” said one climate journalist, “is they were engineered for a climate that no longer exists.” The catastrophic chain of events that water and power authorities are working to prepare for amid the desertification of the Colorado River basin would amount to a “complete doomsday scenario,” harming water and electricity supplies for millions, according to new reporting from The Washington Po

Democrats cannot allow Republicans to hold the country hostage with the debt ceiling. Bernie Sanders comes out swinging for rail workers. Lame-Duck Dems Must Lift Debt Limit, Advocates Say as GOP Doubles Down on Social Security Threats: "Democrats must do whatever it takes to defeat Republican attacks on our earned Social Security benefits," said one advocate. "That means raising the debt ceiling this year, before Republicans take control of the House." Progressives on Wednesday warned that time is running out for Democratic leaders to take Republicans at their word regarding slashes to social safety net programs, as U.S. Sen. John Thune indicated the GOP will use a potential fight over the debt ceiling next year as leverage to push cuts—unless the Democrats act now to raise the debt limit while they still control the Senate and House. SHAME! Executive & Congress may sacrifice rail workers to further enrich corporate America: All our rail workers want is humane working conditions along with pay commens

LIVE on KPFT 90.1 FM: All our rail workers want is humane working conditions along with pay commensurate with the value of their work. Yet our President & Congress is willing to force them to submit to the corporations. We spoke about antiseptic slavery during our last Politics Done Right program.

I try to be sensitive on every issue but believe this to my core and will continue to try to make my case. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support

Massive Demonstration of Support for Lopez Obrador in Mexico City: AMLO was elected in 2018 and heralded as the Bernie Sanders of Mexico. Hundreds of thousands marched with Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador on Sunday in a massive demonstration through Mexico City to show their support for Lopez Obrador. We willfully submit ourselves to the new bondage,

LIVE on KPFT 90.1 FM: It is easy to be pessimistic in these times where most have acquiesced to an insidious form of bondage I refer to as antiseptic slavery. I am optimistic that grassroots action is the answer. I have written ad-nauseam about the fraud that is our healthcare system, education system, and economic system as a whole. But the wealthy, the plutocracy, and the oligarchy have a huge megaphone. It is well-funded by a ruling class that presents a beautiful face of philanthropy as they hurt us behind the scenes using many of our institutions. An informed grassroots movement using geometric progression is our big megaphone. Let’s activate it. Let’s use it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support

Anand Giridharadas does a great expose on billionaires. Adam Kinzinger strikes a note on Kevin McCarthy and much more. Billionaires Like Elon Musk Are the Most Dangerous People on Planet Earth: The best hope of averting climate disaster may well be wealth taxes that significantly reduce the wealth and power of the super-rich. Watching Elon Musk reveal himself in recent weeks to be the world's richest buffoon has certainly been entertaining. However, it could lead to the conclusion that billionaires are silly but harmless—which is far from the truth. Yes, they are often silly. But they are rarely harmless. Indeed, they're among the most dangerous people to walk the earth. Adam Kinzinger does not think Kevin McCarthy will last as Speaker of the House: Adam Kinzinger was not kind to Rep. Kevin McCarthy.

Bill Barr, Paul Ryan, and many others illustrate Republicans' cowardice that is costing us lives as their masters continue to rule them like puppets. Adam Kinzinger: Liz and I are not courageous Conforming Republicans are cowards: Adam Kinzinger appropriately deflected kudos for doing the right thing. He pointed out that Trump MAGA Republican sycophants are cowards. Trump's Attorney General Bill Barr slashes his former boss but would vote for him again: Former Trump Attorney General Bill Barr shows the spineless hypocritical power-hungry cowards unable to detach from a treasonous ex-president. His Firing Line interview on PBS with Margaret Hoover was telling. Shame on the GOP: It wasn't the good guy with the gun who saved lives it was the good one without: Former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance & Former FBI Special agent Clint Watts point out that the GOP is all wrong on their solution to our gun policies. These 'STRONG MEN' are at the heights of Republican hypocrisy amid their ongoing support for Trump:

Philadelphia DA has a message for GOP. Chuck Todd tags Pence, and it will hurt later. Justice Thomas aiming for a SCOTUS-sanctioned divorce :)? It is the Right who are extremists. Chuck Todd’s interview will haunt Mike Pence- Constitutional Rights for the unborn & forced births: If Democrats and Progressives do it right, they will tag Mike Pence’s interview to every Republican Presidential candidate. Host to Justice Thomas on marriage laws from the bench: There’re better ways to divorce your wife (FUNNY): Justice Clarence Thomas, as we all know, had to go a step further after conservatives overturned Roe. He had a concurring opinion that many scholars believe put same-sex marriage and interracial marriage in jeopardy.

Drop the false indoctrination. It is not Progressives and the Left Wing that are the extremists. It's the Moderates and the Right. Let me prove it to you. Progressives, the Left, are not the ones that are extremists. After all, the policies they support are the policies that most Americans say they want. They are vilified as extreme because both Republicans and Corporate Democrats understand that their policies mean the pilfering by the corporate sector and the wealthy will be attenuated. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support
