Hey folks,
Joe and I pushed past the surface to talk about what’s actually happening right now — fascism, ICE raids in Chicago, the “No Kings” protests, and what love of country really means when democracy’s on the line. We unpacked the J.D. Vance and Nazi paraphernalia mess, how shame vanished in MAGA politics, and why never apologizing became the new playbook.
It’s about courage, community, and action over performative outrage — the stuff that actually keeps democracy alive.
[00:01:07] Joe opens with love (and an apology!) before we dive into guns, fear, and why being out loud in public life comes with real risks.
[00:05:53] Nazi paraphernalia in a Republican congressional office — and the GOP’s complete moral collapse in defending it.
[00:09:54] Trump’s immunity to shame, how MAGA learned to never apologize, and why that’s their superpower and their downfall.
[00:20:00] ICE raids in Chicago — the helicopters, the fear, and the parents organizing to protect their kids and each other.
[00:28:30] “No Kings” protests, what unity really means right now, and how to show love of country without feeding fascist lies.
If this conversation hits for you — if you want more blunt, hopeful, values-first strategy talks like this — become a paid subscriber. It’s the simplest way to help us build a real community, bring on more guests, and keep the pressure on when it matters. $8/month keeps the lights on and the work honest. [ [link removed] ]
With urgency,
