This week on the pod, we were joined by a Virginia mom named Andrea. For years, she thought she hated politics — she says it just seemed like a reason for “people to be mean to each other.” But as last year's election drew closer, she noticed that her friends and family weren't talking about it. Everyone said they were too exhausted after the first Trump presidency.Andrea understood the feeling (who isn't exhausted by Trump??), but she couldn't stand by and do nothing. So she started a TroubleNation group called NoVA Childless Cat Ladies. At first, all they did was write postcards, but she used those get-togethers to talk about their shared values and how they could support marginalized groups in their area. Now, a year later, Childless Cat Ladies has more than 100 members!It feels like we were just here — on the cusp of an election, not knowing which way things will go. If you're feeling a bit of PTSD, you're not alone. This year's elections are getting a lot less press and attention than 2024, but local elections are SO important. From the governor and attorney general of Virginia to school boards and mayors and ballot propositions across the country, we have the opportunity to protect our neighbors next Tuesday.  And, as a bonus, we can kick off a blue wave that'll take us through next year's midterms.If you want to join Red Wine & Blue and Heather Cox Richardson for a virtual Love America Rally on Wednesday 10/29 at 7:30pm ET, you can learn more and RSVP here. For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

Scott Galloway speaks with Heather Cox Richardson, a historian at Boston College and author of Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America, as well as the widely-read Substack Letters from an American. They discuss the ‘No Kings' protests and what they reveal about the state of U.S. democracy, the erosion of moral and corporate leadership, and the redefinition of patriotism in a polarized America. Heather explains how history helps us understand today's authoritarian drift, why civic courage has faded among elites, and how national service could help rebuild a shared sense of purpose.

Heather Cox Richardson has another stupid piece comparing Trump's proposed arch to an ugly federal building. Summary: Trump's arch is anti democracy.https://mcclanahanacademy.comhttps://patreon.com/thebrionmcclanahanshowhttps://brionmcclanahan.com/supporthttp://learntruehistory.com

Republicans in Congress know that what they're doing is deeply unpopular—on healthcare, supporting troops in the streets, and on redistricting. That's why they're basically in hiding, plotting new ways to try to shift the narrative. But because they've given their Constitutional power away to Trump & company, unelected officials in the administration are now making the taxing and spending decisions. Meanwhile, Trump has another monument in the works. Plus, Democrats and the Senate race in Maine, another military strike in the Caribbean, and MTG may be a bellwether of MAGA's future. Heather Cox Richardson joins Tim Miller. show notes Heather on Trump's proposed arch that would disrupt the Lincoln Memorial Heather on how Congressional Republicans have abdicated their power

We are so excited today to share the first episode of our new podcast How To Not Lose Your Sh!t. We've been hearing from women in our community that they want to get involved and make a difference, but they're overwhelmed. They're scared. And we hear you — we feel the same way so much of the time. But we have a theory: what if self-care and politics aren't actually opposites? What if connecting with our neighbors and making real positive change can make us feel even better than a bubble bath or a manicure?This week, we're joined by our favorite historian, Heather Cox Richardson. Heather chatted with us about how she writes her newsletter every day without losing her shit, why our connections with each other are so important, and why she's optimistic about the elections coming up in November.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

Right now we are dealing with a government who have captured all levels of federal power, and are working overtime to keep up their long standing plan to divide us so we don't unite to fight back. Trump wants America to conform to the America he has in his head, but he can't do it alone, so he defers to people like Russel Vought and Steven Miller who want to burn it all down to rebuild the country in their own image. This is something we simply can't allow, but to stop it we're going to have to work together.  As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

Let's be honest: this year has been a bit of a dumpster fire. Here at Red Wine & Blue, we've been hearing women in our community say they're not sure how to make a difference — at least, not without totally losing their shit.So we decided to tackle that question head-on with a brand-new podcast. It's simply called How To Not Lose Your Sh!t and it's hosted by our very own Katie Paris and LaFonda Cousin.Katie, our founder, has worked in political organizing for most of her career. LaFonda, our Chief People Officer, is a wellness expert and yoga teacher on a mission to reimagine self-care. Every week, they'll talk to experts and everyday women who are getting involved, building community, and feeling better in the process.You can listen to our first episode with special guest Heather Cox Richardson on October 1st, with new episodes every Wednesday after that. If you're already subscribed to the Red Wine & Blue podcast in your podcast player, you'll automatically see new episodes each week here in your feed.There are a lot of political podcasts out there already, and a lot of mental health and self-care shows too. What we want to do is reject that binary and explore how getting involved can actually be a form of not only caring for your community, but also yourself. We can't wait for you to join us on a journey through self-care, politics, community, and tackling this difficult moment… together.For a transcript of this episode, please email comms@redwine.blue.

Ever since last year's election, suburban women have had more questions than answers. How are we supposed to deal with the firehose of information that's coming at us all the time? Can we believe what we read in the news or on social media? And, most important of all, why is all of this happening?That's why we made “Okay, But Why.” Because these days, good information can be hard to find. And no matter what anyone says, facts are not political. If Americans all had access to the same information, we'd probably agree on a lot more than we think. These resources aren't going anywhere – you can still scroll back in your podcast feed to listen to old episodes, watch them on YouTube, or read about them on our website. You can send an episode to a friend and use it as a starting point for a meaningful conversation.Now that we all have a little better handle on why the news is so crazy, there's another pressing question to answer: how can we make a difference without losing our shit? So in that spirit, we're launching a brand-new pod that's simply called “How To Not Lose Your Sh!t.” It'll be hosted by Katie Paris, the founder of Red Wine & Blue, along with LaFonda Cousin, our Chief People Officer, yoga teacher, and wellness expert.Because let's be honest, we're all kind of losing our shit right now. But there are ways to feel better — and ways to make the world a better place — and it all starts with community.The trailer for our new pod will drop tomorrow and the first episode (with special guest Heather Cox Richardson) will come out on Wednesday, October 1st.

Tucker Carlson has remained in the headlines over the past week, appearing on The Charlie Kirk Show on September 19 to reflect on the late Charlie Kirk's faith and influence on cultural and political activism. Carlson took on a guest hosting role during the episode, sharing personal stories, discussing resilience after controversy, and emphasizing the recent surge in citizen engagement ahead of the coming election. His comments highlighted not only his personal bond with Kirk but also touched on the broader political climate, referencing the pain of media smears and the transformative impact of public pressure on news personalities.Carlson's own media ventures are moving forward. Following the successful launch of his independent online outlet after leaving Fox News, there have been new developments involving his business partnerships. Red Seat Ventures, the Fox-backed digital company that helps independent creators like Carlson, continues to expand its influence in the podcast and YouTube creator space, aiming to find new voices that could shape the future of conservative commentary. This investment has strengthened Carlson's platform and provided more resources for his ongoing projects, as reported by Variety and Deadline.Carlson is also being discussed as an influential figure in right-wing media and politics, with ongoing debates about his role as an independent power broker outside the constraints of cable news. His influence remains a point of contention in conversations about the future of conservative media, amplified by the growth of his alternative channels and his ability to attract large audiences even after his departure from mainstream TV. Notably, figures like historian Heather Cox Richardson have mentioned that Carlson would likely be a target in any future attempts by political opponents to counter conservative media influence, further underscoring his status as a lightning rod for debate.Following the recent controversy over comments made by Jimmy Kimmel regarding Charlie Kirk, Carlson's sphere has also intersected with broader media industry reactions. The backlash led to ABC suspending Kimmel's show and political actors weighing in on the boundaries of acceptable commentary, with some conservative voices closely aligned with Carlson celebrating the move as an overdue reckoning for mainstream media.No new legal disputes or investigations involving Carlson have surfaced in the past several days, and his media focus has been on remembrance, commentary, and strengthening his independent presence rather than engaging in litigation or regulation battles.Listeners are encouraged to stay tuned for further developments as Carlson continues to help shape debates on media, culture, and politics.

It can feel like all is lost under Trump 2.0, but America has faced extremely dark chapters before and come out on the other side.

Is Trump becoming “the demented dictator”? That's the question driving the latest episode of Shrinking Trump, as clinical psychologists John Gartner and Harry Segal sit down with Dan Rodricks, the legendary former Baltimore Sun columnist, to unpack Trump's disastrous press conference where he unveiled a plan to seize control of the D.C. police. Be sure to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts: Our site Subscribe on iTunes Subscribe on Spotify Subscribe on Amazon Music Subscribe on iHeartRadio They paint a vivid picture of Trump's recent media blitz, from declaring eight separate states of emergency to deploying troops in Washington, D.C. Rather than stemming crime—which has actually declined—these moves feel like a staged spectacle, a bid to manufacture chaos and justify an authoritarian grip. Heather Cox Richardson and photographer-writer Rex Huke chime in to call out the mainstream press for glossing over Trump's erratic behavior. Too often, anchors chase sensational sound bites instead of pressing for real answers, reducing cognitive warning signs to fleeting headlines rather than treating them as red flags. When Trump turns his fire on Baltimore, he distorts a city on the rise into a caricature of dysfunction. Gartner and Segal contrast his fear-mongering with ground-level reality—neighborhood revitalization, falling violent-crime rates, and community-led renewal—showing how he weaponizes urban struggles to stoke division. Pointing out possible signs of cognitive strain in our leaders isn't a cheap political attack—it's a civic responsibility. By naming these stunts for what they may be—symptoms of mental strain—we open the door to honest dialogue, inoculate ourselves against manipulation, and reclaim our democratic norms. Tune in to Shrinking Trump on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your shows. Arm yourself with the language to see past the façade and call out authoritarian playbooks whenever they emerge. In a world drowning in noise, psychological clarity just might be our most powerful defense. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Trump's cognitive decline was on full display when a reporter asked him a simple question about how long detainees would have to stay at the so-called Alligator Alcatraz facility in the Florida Everglades. Trump asked the reporter to repeat the question and she did.Trump then launched into a nonsensical rant that had noting to do with the question that was twice asked. Watching this change makes clear that Trump wasn't unwilling to answer the simple, twice-repeated question, but rather was unable to understand and answer the question.

President Trump claims Israel and Iran have agreed to a ceasefire, just hours after Iran retaliates with strikes on a key U.S. air base in Qatar. Then, what continued hostilities would mean for the oil market. And Trump floats the idea of regime change in Tehran. Susan Glasser, Dave Weigel, General Barry McCaffrey, Justin Wolfers, Bharat Ramamurti, Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani and Heather Cox Richardson join The 11th Hour this Monday.

Jojo from Jerz brings together legal heavyweight George Conway and historian Heather Cox Richardson for a candid, unscripted conversation about the chaos of June 2025. With Trump launching strikes on Iran, Congress sidelined, and the world on edge, Jo, George, and Heather cut through the noise to ask: How did we get here—and what happens next?George & Heather swap stories from their Harvard days and dig into the psychology of Trump's power: Why do smart people keep caving to him? Why does the GOP keep bending the knee? And what does history tell us about strongmen, performative politics, and the collapse—or survival—of democracy?From the performative presidency to the dangers of unchecked executive power, the trio breaks down the legal, historical, and human stakes of this moment. They talk about the Supreme Court, the role of institutions, and why—when the rule of law is on the ropes—the only thing left is for people to get out in the streets and fight for what mattersSubscribe and Follow Jo:https://linktr.ee/jojofromjerz Hosted on Acast.

We are at an inflection point. A chill is sweeping the country. We ignore it at our peril. The warning signs are everywhere. Alaska GOP Senator Lisa Murkowski says, “We are all afraid.” Massachusetts Democratic Governor Maura Healey says, “The fear is real.” New York Times columnist Masha Gessen writes, “America's Police State Has Arrived.” A Columbia University dean told students, “Nobody can protect you. These are dangerous times.” Conservative PBS commentator David Brooks calls for “a civic uprising to fight back and adds: “We have nothing to lose but our chains.” Dissent is being criminalized. People are being deported without any kind of due process. Court rulings are being ignored. Democracy, civil liberties and free speech are all under attack. What can be done to reverse cowboy authoritarianism in America? Recorded at the University of British Columbia.

The mainstream media has let us down, so now more than ever we need to support those doing independent work. The extremists have been able to shape the mindset of the majority of this nation because the far right invested in their voices. Give people like me a chance to fight back.

We are seeing in real time what it looks like to turn a democracy over to an oligarch, namely the unstable guy from South Africa who thinks he's going to be emperor of the universe. It's also authoritarian for that one unstable guy to threaten members of congress with job loss if they vote to provide hurricane relief or to rebuild part of the interstate highway system. Plus, the need for a pro-democracy media ecosystem, the difference between liberal and left, and the terribleness of the William McKinley era. Heather Cox Richardson joins Tim Miller. show notes Some of Heather's books: “Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America" "Wounded Knee: Party Politics and the Road to an American Massacre" "West from Appomattox: The Reconstruction of America after the Civil War"
