It's March 1st, 2025 and yesterday will go down in history as the Orange God-King of America officially changed the entire makeup of American foreign policy.
Laken Riley Act is an attack on basic American Rights. AOC is the only Congressperson calling out her own side in it's complicity in passing it. https://youtu.be/lmVq6Pq9RH0
How are Drug Cartels Terrorists? Also a daily run down of the news, and a gift article recommendation about soldiers and warriors. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/01/us-needs-soldiers-not-warriors/681380/?gift=otEsSHbRYKNfFYMngVFweHXtqdoLoO5nd7C-VL7kMXg
The Executive Orders, the Pardons, the shows of civil obedience from Democrats. WE are the opposition. Trans Rights: https://substack.com/home/post/p-155253829?source=queue&autoPlay=false
Wrote a script over the weekend that's officially outdated 12 hours later. The stream of crap is flowing, drip by Plutocratic drip.
The Quislings are still our best bet against MAGA going forward. But they need to take the right lessons from history.
Too many Democrats acting like business as usual, they're the Quisling Party to me now. Same as Republicans are all just MAGA to me. Quislings failed during the brief hearing for Pete Hegseth. Doubling down on what is public knowledge doesn't change him being confirmed. Senator Duckworth surprisingly nails how the entire hearing should have gone.
Why are there so many Billionaires with Apartheid South African ties involved with our elections? And Chuck Schumer says to be silent. I say to be loud. 00:00 South African Billionaires 04:48 Chuck Schumer and Democratic Strategy CONTACT INFO: RecoveryFromPolitics@gmail.com @recoveryfrom.bsky.social
Trump nominates a sex trafficker to AG, A Russian asset to DNI, and a Fox & Friends host to Secretary of Defense. CONTACT INFO: RecoveryFromPolitics@gmail.com @libagrep Xitter @recoveryfrom.bsky.social
No one is having kids in America! And The Orange God-King selects an angry white guy from TV to be Secretary of Defense.
"Polyworking" is a new word for you working multiple jobs instead of receiving decent pay. Trump is going to irreparably damage the Senate. 00:00 Polyworking 05:27 Senate Chaos
Anyone suggesting it's just one thing probably has their own agenda to sell. I think it was a Perfect Storm no Democrat likely would have overcome. 00:00 Introduction 01:55 #5 Shitposting Edgelords 04:15 #4 Bored Men 07:22 #3 Perceptions of Parties 11:57 #2 The Economy 19:14 #1 Racism & Misogyny
Biden and Harris capitulate. Schumer won't even fight. Jeffries says he's looking forward to working with the fascists. RecoveryFromPolitics@gmail.com
Norms and traditions HAVE failed us. ARE failing us. WILL fail us. A year from now I think we're going to wish we had done something while we still could. https://youtu.be/DYEVk2adkXo
Is North Korea sending troops to fight Ukraine? Schools fighting Culture War Conspiracies. Small towns affected by hurricanes attracting conspiracy theorists.
Idaho's inhumane anti-trans law has had the exact affect Christian Nationalists wanted. Passed with help from TERFs, it's wrecking kids. Meanwhile, the Worst Secretary makes a last ditch case to Israel.
South Korean Intelligence says 10,000 Special Forces from North Korea are going to Russia to be used in it's war against Ukraine. This doesn't pass the smell test.
Biden tries a 30 day deadline with Israel over aid to Palestinians. Silencing dissent is on the menu everywhere. And is Trump cutting off a key demographic going after video games? 16:13 Politics Begins 19:32 Silencing Dissent 29:36 Trump vs Gamers
President Biden has failed to change the paradigm on two key issues when the opportunities to do so presented themselves. He has not affected change on the economy or our relationship with Israel. The price for his failure may be a second Trump term.
Pagers and 2 Way radios exploded against alleged terrorists in Lebanon by Israel. I discuss the effects this will have on foreign policy, small and big business, and our supply chain.
I discuss Israel, Hezbollah, and exploding pagers.
A little bit of everything today as I talk about the Right's attacks against Tim Walz military service, Ukraine going on offense, and Israel continuing devastation of Palestinian's Human Rights.
Trump uses Transgender as a slur against Walz. Protests at a Harris rally showcase American's narcissism.
White grievance is at an uptick in the United Kingdom. Much like Brexit, is the United States about to jump the shark along with them again?
Random thoughts in my brain. Mostly about the election. Trump, Harris, etc.
White Supremacy, Project 2025, a Religious Cult Running the Courts and a King who doesn't seem to believe his own rhetoric.
Vice-President Kamala Harris is having a moment! Also, Project 2025 is stepping up.
What do you call someone that has unlimited resources and is immortal? The Supreme Court yesterday has coronated two new entities in American life. And we have no saviors.
Joe Biden had a terrible debate. While his staff tries to deflect blame to CNN, or an off night, reports suggest he isn't 100% outside of 10AM-4PM.
WaPo writes a Sunday article about the decline of a small Pennsylvania town. I ask the harder questions about their politics and Project2025 implications. Also, why doesn't the media ever ask politicians "What's next?". https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2024/06/23/rural-america-shrinking-population-pennsylvania/ Note: I mention posting a Xitt from Rep. Chip Roy of Texas in the podcast. Due to technical difficulties, I could not post it in video. @chiproytx on Jun21, 2024
SCOTUS has several high stakes cases left. Each has potential to be chaotic.
Every story I see is about Democrats, their hubris, their stubbornness, and their inability to grasp reality. https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4723312-white-house-accused-of-scuttling-democratic-support-for-ethics-bill/ https://www.axios.com/2024/06/19/biden-faith-campaign-mike-donilon-2024-election
I'm voting Biden in November, but think the argument that Trump would be significantly worse on certain topics is laughable. https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/2024/03/covid-19-is-still-a-threat-so-is-bidens-cdc https://zeteo.com/p/a-saudi-nuke-biden-is-about-to-give
There is a fundamental misunderstanding within the Democratic Party.
The Hill reporting Biden is going all in on Florida in an attempt to flip a Red state Blue. Why this reminds me of Hillary Clinton's failed 50 State Strategy.
South Dakota Governor commits political seppuku. Nazis march through Charleston... again.
Pro-Palestine protests happened over the weekend and the response has been about what you'd expect. YT: https://youtu.be/mnLyeY_S94E
Biden self owns on the border and possibly gifts Trump with $200 Billion dollars! Also, Arizona Supreme Court is giving Alabama's a run for it's money in the Dumbest American Court competition. YT: https://youtu.be/HPtkJ0j5eAo
Mayor of Kyiv, Vitaly Klitschko, says Trump might be 'good' for Ukraine. It isn't his opinion, it's social media's disgusting response that has me riled up. YT: https://youtu.be/Rs-udgVFpLg
Trump wobbles on Abortion. Lefties point to hypocrisy. Cons act betrayed. MAGA? They don't care. Also, Trump says he wants immigrants from "nice countries" like Denmark, Switzerland... YT: https://youtu.be/7MMtWBwKgl0
Biden threatens conditional aide to Israel and achieves results. What took so long? Also, Biden vs The Supreme Court: Student Loans Pt 2! YouTube: https://youtu.be/Q1DudqF_USE
Supreme Court screws the pooch while Dems continue to whine as our country descends further into Authoritarianism. I take everyone to task from Obama to Biden, Kagan to Jackson, Pelosi to Cheney, no one is immune today.
Trump talks about ending NATO. How did we get here? Mostly because of George W Bush. YouTube: https://youtu.be/avUZXxUO5TY

If this was Trump you'd be calling for his removal. Memory issues are bad and only going to get worse.
The GOP blew up their own bill in the House and Senate. Biden is catering to the Right's whims. Exploitation of human beings is normal in our system.
Biden has a bad moment during a press conference. GOP faceplants twice in one day. YouTube: https://youtu.be/f4PJ_kqkW3M
It's easy for us to sit back and tell Muslim-Americans that things would be 1000 times worse under Trump and they should really vote for Biden. We have no skin in the game. It isn't our family and friends being killed overseas. So while I will vote for Biden, I'm certainly not going to pour energy into convincing others that they should too.
President Biden attacked Ansar Allah in Yemen without Congressional Approval. He says he is the champion for Democracy against Trump, but his actions suggest it isn't as black and white as he would have you believe. post.news: @Politics_From Threads: @kyleframe98 Tribel: @Recovery_From RecoveryFromPolitics@Gmail.com https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100042064646185 https://spoutible.com/Recovery_From_Politics Fighting Fascism is a full time job!
