Donald Trump Goes On Unhinged Attacks Against Mike Pence, Jack Smith And Judge After 3rd Indictment

[@Kit-se3zs]

Michael Moore has a really good point---Trump is _lucky_ to be an American! “That Trump will be tried for his coup attempt is not a violation of his rights. It is a *fulfillment* of his rights. It is the *grace* of the American republic. In other systems, when your coup attempt fails, what follows is not a trial.” --Timothy Snyder, Yale history professor

Also, going soccer nerd here The US Women's team lost because they faced a woman in the Swedish net that went full Tim Howard against Belgium in 2018. While they missed opportunities, they weren't the best team in this tournament. They were put in bad situations by the manager and looked like they played down to competition. They also suffered injuries to some of the key players that were able to paper over the cracks of the team and no one stepped in to fill the gap. It was a series of unfortunate events and they still were inches away from winning that match.

Issue 1 in Ohio may have been triggered by the reproductive rights amendment, but it’s so much more insidious than that. The republicans are basically using the issue of abortion to reflexively get voters to cede their power to the legislature-basically ensuring that the legislature will be the only avenue of getting issues to the ballot. It hurts my head that some Ohioans don’t see it.

Re: Ohio’s Issue 1, It is more than changing the current 50+1 to 60%. There is also the change in petitioning that now has to be filed for 44 counties that would increase to all 88 counties! This would present a huge challenge as many are rural and making contact would be difficult. Another obstacle they want to create is over the petition cure period. Currently if signatures are determined to be invalid, petitioners have 10 days to collect & file more signatures. Under passage of issue 1, petitioners would have to start the whole collection process over again! VOTE NO on Issue 1

Within Utah, Salt Lake City is known for being very liberal.

Until I turned 30 (five years ago), I consistently moved between 2x - 2.5x a year, and could claim residence in 17 American states total + 4 other countries through studying/teaching abroad. Despite that meaning, yes, up until 10th grade, I had never gone to the same school two years in a row, I didn't resent moving. I enjoy seeing and exploring new places, and even as a child I took a very studious approach towards how I compared and contrasted the states, including "the way they teach the civil war" and "if they think y'all is an informal plural form of you" or "uneducated slang by people who dont understand you is already plural". Despite living in all these unique places, there are less than a handful of states I would consider something like a "home state" since when most people ask that, what they DON'T want to hear is, "well, I was BORN in North Carolina, but we lived there less than a year-". Somewhere high on "places that are close enough to home" is Ohio. I only lived there a year, but my dad's family is from the area and I spent many summers there. I even learned how to support The Ohio State Football and, more importantly, The Best Damn Band In The Land. When I lived there, I was much younger and not as politically active/knowledgeable, though my family is conservative Catholics. However, I remember my Catholic school being surprisingly liberal (more accurately, despite this being back the start of the 2000, this catholic school curriculum would have the current toxic sect of "parental rights" advocates absolutely bemoaning how it's so "woke" and "grooming") at leasts in regards to subjects. For instance, all 8th graders had an mandatory "Reproductive Health Education" semester where the teacher made us each stand up and go around the room and say, "penis" and "vagina" repeatedly until we could use these medical terms without giggling (true fact, and also very effective as even today my immediate reaction to hearing these words in any context is, "that's the proper and accurate medical terminology, not a curse word or swear"). Throughout all my different schools in various states I had a grand total of five sexual health courses: 6th grade (seperate girl and boy video tapes about puberty), this one in 8th grade, a short sexual safety course in 9th grade (look we're not gonna show you a condom, tell you how effective the pill is or even mention vasectomies - that's too close to putting responsibility on guys - but we WILL tell you that if you're not willing to wait for the one you love, they would probably appreciate not sleeping with everyone YOU have) and finally a whole semester in 12th grade. A whole semester for what in Georgia is all the sex ed a public school student will get. It basically amounted to four months of being told horror stories of pregnant prom queens, how abortions make you infertile, some scaremongering about how if you're gay or marry a gay man you WILL get AIDs (seriously, the video never said "gay" but it also was obvious made in the 80s and avoided even using the term HIV - seriously feel like it might have still been widely known as GRID when this video waas creative - and followed some men who lived toegther and were filmed roller blading around San Francisco in short shorts together in case we somehow missed the subtext) and any other abstinence only "education" method you've heard of. If you notice that's only four, its because my teacher for that class openly campared "homosexuals" to "pedophiles" and I just walked out and went to the guidance counselor and was told.... You can't skip class because you disagree with the teacher, they have a right to their religious views. So, I did exactly that and failed and then had to retake the course as summer semester so I coild graduate. Seriously. I will always be thankful for that strangely educational Catholic sex ed class. Its where I learned "Actual" vs "Perfect Use" statistics for all major forms of bc, and not nonsense numbers meant to frighten you but actual, accurate statics. They're probably very out of date but I remember the pill's perfect usage effective precentage was lime 98% but then its actual usage was like 90% and my teacher stressed thats why you need ro follow instructions, also always consider using a condom as well since not only does it protect against against pregnancy but also most STIs. They also stressed having empathy for those who end up pregnant or who get sick, and even spent extra time coverjng HIV in order to emphasize that "diseases were not punishments" and we shouldn't judge someone's entire life because of one event. It was so educational compared to what most students get... I once had to turn around on a Georgia Tech trolley to explain to this Mechanical Engineering student why, no, the pill does not protect against STIs and who told you you can't get herpes from giving oral!? How can you be so smart and yet so utterly underinformed. I don't know why Ohio decided that this one Catholic school in the upper part of the state would be the sole school in America that would see fit to provide its entire student body at an appropriate age - 8th grade but even 6th or 7th grade would have been fine, I think - since it's largely prior to the majority of sexual activities but old enough that many of the students will have already been exposed to plenty of "information" on these subjects. It's come in handy countless times, and was always SO grateful I was exposed to real information and facts instead of going into my senior health ed class completely blind with absolutely no prior information covering the subject. Meaning I would have completely lacked the background of factual information, actual statistics and research and even being trusted with scientific consensus. If I hadn't had that, I may have just accepted claims like, "the most common side effect experienced by women after having an abortion was infertility. Something to think about, you may be going because you wanted to wait, because its not a good time, but then you're never able to have children again". I personally hadn't been involved in prochoice activism, but thanks to my actual sex ed years before I knew better than to listen when we wrre told, "women under 25 engaged in extramarital affairs are 9x more likely to have an abortion due to it's 'convenience' That's why pro abortion advocates have to try so hard to destory all the laws there for patient safety, they know that most women use abortions rather than bc because they think murder is convenient" or "70% of young woman will go on to have an abortion, 70%. Women who have abortions are not only more likey to be single mothers with multiple kids, they tend to be in lower paid careers, make less income than young women who go on to have famillies, they tend to remain single and are less likely to end up married, they're more likely to have children from multiple fathers, and they're more likely to turn to substance abuse. Especially thanks to all the guilt most women carry with them, with those who have testified about their experiences talking about how they still dream every year on what would have been the child's birthday to stories about a husband leaving because their new daughter's laugh sounded just like he imagined their first child's. Remember, it's not just about the mother." That class was sp disgusting and also very likely caused a lot of harm. In Georgia, the group most lilely to contract an HIV infection is heterosexual women, and studying AIDS only through the pov of a "gay disease" people get as punishment for being homosexual, just the entire ignorinng of homosexuality at all beyond HIV and being "the same as pedophiles" is shameful for a class meant to be abot sexual education, the pro-life anti-abortion propoganda that both laid the blame almost exclusively with women and then set off to manipulate young girls by both attempting to scare her into behaving (you'll be infertile! You won't get married! The guilt!) But also ignoring that to propgate the sterotype of a "loose" woman who can't keep a man or keep it in her pants. I mean, if anything sitting through my public senior health class was actively uneducational. I will always think of Ohio when I think of sex ed. Come on, Ohio, I know that deep down you actually care about facts and science!

37:00 1) Bernie still would have been a better candidate 2) watching the Republican politicians consolidate against trump will just make the Trumpers support him more because they will feel vindicated in their conspiracy

Can I get a Lovett reaction to the Montgomery Riverboat Brawl… I’d love to hear your guys takes. I have not stopped laughing for the last day or so😂

On the Hannity debate, I can't believe you three missed the point that Hannity wants revenge for Newsom kicking his butt when he went on his show.

Jail might be what he wants (at least a short stint). I would say massively increasing fines. Start with a million and double it every time he makes a threat.

[@audreywellham2413]

He wants jail to sell more bs to his clan. He wants to use it to make money. He’s so used to manipulating everything related to his narcissistic pathological behavior. Most are not equipped to deal with that amount psychological defects. 🙏🏻🇺🇸⚖️🧢

@Techlax43 Threats are not free speech, you abject moron.

​@Techlax43 he was told by the judge to NOT THREATEN, INTIMIDATE, ETC. But he did. Consequences are the answer...a big fine is an option...being jailed is the other. If it were anything else...they would be sitting in a cell waiting for trial. Positive vibes from New Hampshire, remember to be kind to each other and yourself during these trying times.

He is a wanna-be dictator and he’s being frighteningly successful so far - so many people are already completely brainwashed 😩

“There is apparently some connection between dissatisfaction with oneself and a proneness to credulity. The urge to escape our real self is also an urge to escape the rational and the obvious. The refusal to see ourselves as we are develops a distaste for facts and cold logic. There is no hope for the frustrated in the actual and the possible. Salvation can come to them only from the miraculous, which seeps through a crack in the iron wall of inexorable reality. They ask to be deceived. What Stresemann said of the Germans is true of the frustrated in general: ‘They pray not only for their daily bread, but also for their daily illusion.’ The rule seems to be that those who find no difficulty deceiving themselves are easily deceived by others. They are easily persuaded and led.” ~Eric Hoffer

As pointed out in the Pod, in 2016, Trump lost Iowa and then ending up winning the primary rather easily. If Trump wins Iowa in 2024, it's over. Candidates will drop out and Trump will only further consolidate the Republican primary vote.

Good episode

[@iamheatheranne]

Gavin's response to DeSantis's debate demands is perfect. Gavin will kick his ass even tho DeSantis has a leg up.

[@lauramiller6106]

Great episode. Isn't the Flaw in Gary's plan that accepting a pardon is an admission of guilt? Also, don't pardons have to be for specific crimes? Wouldn't that mean that Biden has to admit to a crime? Thanks.

[@bonniehoke-scedrov4906]

Governor Chris Christie is coming up in the polls. I'm a little surprised none of you have mentioned him. I'm a Democrat, so Biden has my vote. But, among the Republican candidates, Christie is the only one who sounds intelligent and presidential. Another benefit is that he's absolutely unafraid of Donald Trump and could debate circles around him if it ever comes to that. I would actually like Christie to become the Republican nominee. I could rest easier if that were the case.

One day Trump will have turned to dust and just blown away. Sooner the better.

Left out the real possibility of violence against witnesses, jurors, or the court. Trump should be billed for the added security.

I feel it's worth pointing out the cult of personality that is surrounding trump right now, I don't think he can be treated as just another candidate unfortunately

Ron DeSantis thinks we all are stupid. We see his word salad and his reluctancy to answer questions directly. Ron has no style sense. Remember the white boots during Hurricane Ian.
