Glenn Beck Special- Globalist TAKEOVER of America's Economy Is Nearly Complete. A gigantic cover-up is under way to mislead the public on the TRUE state of the U.S. economy — and it has massive global implications. After a few years of Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan to fundamentally transform America, we all felt the pain in 2023. This year, however, we have a chance to let our voices be heard. But with a historic number of people heading to the polls in 2024, global elites can't afford to let you know what they're really ushering in: 21st century fascism and Phase II of the Great Reset. Glenn believes that this year, the elites will go into overdrive to grab control and make sure YOU can't vote out their plans. So Glenn heads to the chalkboard to reveal the frightening numbers that the Biden administration doesn't want you to know: Will inflation ever go down? Does the United States still have the strongest economy in the world? Who's really to blame for all the pain? Glenn also explains what the 2023 economic numbers can show us about our future. The foundation for the Great Reset has been set, and Glenn reveals what you need to be on the lookout for NEXT: You will own nothing. You will CONTROL nothing. You will have NO PRIVACY. And it's coming faster than expected.   Watch this Glenn Beck Special at- https://youtu.be/6YvVkYvRRYw?si=dDBCyfkB7g8tOiru Glenn Beck 1.23M subscribers 109,402 views Premiered Jan 17, 2024 #theblaze #glennbeck #takeover ► Click HERE to subscribe to Glenn Beck on YouTube: https://bit.ly/2UVLqhL ► Click HERE to subscribe to BlazeTV: get.blazetv.com/glenn ► Click HERE to subscribe to BlazeTV YouTube:    / @blazetv   ► Click HERE to sign up to Glenn's newsletter: https://www.glennbeck.com/st/Morning_...

Subscribe Today!   Book by Glenn Beck - Dark Future: Uncovering the Great Reset's Terrifying Next Phase (The Great Reset Series) by Glenn Beck.  July 11, 2023 The Great Reset was just the beginning. At important meetings in 2021 and 2022, powerful leaders from government, finance, media, and business who support the World Economic Forum's plan for a Great Reset of capitalism launched a new “call to action” titled the “Great Narrative.” The Great Narrative campaign seeks to use the decay of traditional values throughout the West and new and future advancements in technology—including in the areas of artificial intelligence, automation, the metaverse, robotics, and more—to seize control of economies and societies in North America and Europe. The elites behind these proposals even plan to impact the way people across cultures and the planet understand what it means to be human and to have free will. According to the leaders of The Great Reset and Great Narrative movements, by the year 2030, your world will be fundamentally transformed. Together, the highly influential and often extremely wealthy figures and institutions behind the Great Narrative are building a troubling new framework for humanity, one that has the potential to change life on earth forever. Just as worrisome, the Communist Party of China and Vladimir Putin's authoritarian regime in Russia are adopting technology-centric approaches of their own to control citizens and institutions, both domestically and abroad. In Dark Future: Uncovering the Great Reset's Terrifying Next Phase, New York Times bestselling authors Glenn Beck and Justin Haskins reveal the most important technologies and social and cultural changes that will soon cause an unprecedented level of disruption in the United States, as well as in countless other nations. They also outline the dangers and opportunities associated with these disruptions and provide a plan to protect individuals and families from losing their liberty. How the free people of the world react to the challenges outlined in this revolutionary book will change the course of history for generations to come. In this emerging, intense struggle for the future of humankind, whose side will you be on?

AOC QUITS TWITTER... KINDAhttps://gorightnews.com/aoc-quits-twitter-kinda/https://www.spreaker.com/user/9922149/aoc-quits-twitter-kindaWith all the important news happening in our world today, it's been a while since we've checked in on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. But this story was too good to pass up...AOC quits Twitter: Recently, during a live Instagram Q&A session, one observant follower asked AOC why she hadn't posted on Twitter in a while. AOC responded by saying she was "taking a break" because of "negative comments" that gave her "anxiety" after she got Covid.Back up: You may recall that right before announcing she had Covid, AOC was criticized for vacationing and partying maskless in Florida, while New York [the state she represents] was enforcing mask and vaccine mandates.AOC un-quits Twitter: Less than 24 hours later, she was back on Twitter, breaking her five-day Twitter strike with a post slamming Senator Joe Manchin for telling CNN that Joe Biden's Build Back Better bill was "dead."Also, If AOC was so triggered by social media, why was she staying off Twitter but still using Instagram?...millennials.

This is Stephen Schmidt from the Gazette digital news desk and I'm here with your update for Thursday, January 6. Thursday will be the coldest in a week of cold days.  According to the National Weather Service it will be mostly sunny and cold in the Cedar Rapids area with a high near 4 degrees. A wind of 10 to 15 mph will gust as high as 25 mph with a wind chill value as low as 25 degrees below zero. On Thursday night the low will be -13 degrees, with -25 degree windchill.  With the state's weekly release of COVID-19 numbers on Wednesday, two things became clear: one, the state's number of cases and deaths surged over the past week, and two, the omicron variant of the disease has arrived in full force. In Iowa, 20,075 new COVID-19 cases were reported in the past week, almost doubling the 11,234 new cases reported the week before. Deaths from the disease also saw an unusually high increase to 161 deaths, increasing the death toll from the disease statewide to 8,019 since the pandemic began here in March of 2020. After a few weeks of drops, Iowa's numbers of people hospitalized with the disease jumped back up again to 795.  Iowa health experts told the Gazette on Wednesday that the huge jump is being fueled by the highly contagious omicron variant becoming the dominant strain in the state. Ahttps://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axioslocal_desmoines&stream=top#variant-proportions (ccording to a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report), as of the week ending Jan. 1, the omicron variant made up 77.4 percent of the COVID-19 sequenced tests in the region made up of Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri Officials with the state's largest hospital expect the number of cases in Iowa will peak in late January or early February, noting it's hard to predict the impact. “We're hopeful we'll see that our hospitalizations do not peak to the levels that they were before with delta, and we believe that we've seen that in other areas around the world. We're watching it closely,” said Dr. Mike Brownlee, University of Iowa Health Care chief pharmacy officer This latest strain has the ability to spread much more rapidly than other variants, including the highly transmissible delta variant it just displaced. It also has a shorter incubation period between exposure and infection, enabling the strain to spread much faster than previous variants In a call with reporters on Wednesday, Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley said he sees no possibility Senate Republicans will support President Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan if it ever comes up for a vote. “Republicans probably will not support anything that's $1.8 trillion because we all voted against $1.9 trillion that was passed in March on a party-line vote,” Grassley said during his weekly call with reporters. Grassley said the fact the nation's economy being strong while inflation levels are unusually high has led Republicans, who already are not fans of large social spending bills on the best of days, to resist the idea even more. Lawmakers also will be on edge Thursday, as it marks the one year anniversary since violent rioters overran the nation's capitol building, an incident that still is being investigated along largely partisan lines.

David has been tracking Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan for the last 6 months – and the sticking points have been Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema.  Joe Manchin, in particular, has always been the one senator having issues with Biden's signature bill. He has had issues with the size of the bill, and whether it was going to have an effect on inflation which is something that has already been ruled by many economists as no longer transitory. Jerome Powell, the Chair of the Federal Reserve, has indeed confirmed that inflation is here to stay.  There's been big news out of Washington: Joe Manchin has finally weighed in on whether or not he'll vote for the Build Back Better plan.  After months of speculation on whether Manchin would fall in line with his fellow democrats or not, he has made it known that he won't back the BBB. One of the things Senator Manchin did was check what the Congressional Budget Office had to share in regards to the impact on inflation and other facets of the economy. Even though Jeff Levine (@CPAplanner on Twitter) seems to think that democrats could circle back after the New Year and could bring Manchin back on board, David finds that unlikely.  Senate Minority Leader of the Republicans, Mitch McConnell, said that if Manchin became a Republican he would welcome him among the Republicans — this could cause a debate on whether Manchin is a Democrat at the end of the day. The Trump tax cuts will expire in 2025, and we'll see the same tax rates we saw in 2017. The 12% tax bracket will become 15%, the 22% will become 25%, and the 24% tax bracket will become 28%. Starting in January 2022, you'll now have 4 years (2022-2025) to be able to reposition to take advantage of these historically low tax rates – instead of having the 8 years that were thought to be possible under Joe Biden's BBB tax change legislation. According to David, this isn't great news for those trying to get to the 0% tax bracket. The goal is to stretch the tax allocation out over as many years as possible before tax rates go back up for good. As of today, it looks like that's going to be in 2026. If your listeners would like to get all the heavy lifting done, there's a greater likelihood that they would rise into a tax bracket that would give them “buyer's remorse” (as opposed to being able to stretch out those tax allocations over 8 years). Those who like government restraints would find significant the fact that, despite being paid for under its current iteration, the BBB would add $3 trillion of debt over a 10-year timeframe, were they to extend a lot of the spending initiatives that expired a couple of years into the program. This isn't good news for those who were hoping to stretch the tax obligation out over a longer period of time. David's gut tells him that Biden's signature legislation, his legacy as it were, has one chance to leave his footprint on America. However, it looks like it's just not going to happen. According to prognosticators, Democrats will lose majority in the House and majority in the Senate come midterms in 2022.   Mentioned in this Episode: Joe Manchin's words on Fox News Sunday - youtube.com/watch?v=h61hhGMe_oA

In this less lengthy holiday episode: More vaccine delirium, conspiracy theories, and misinformation with the COVID-19 Omicron variant now the dominant strain in the US representing almost 3/4's of all new cases. A prime example of that goes viral when a post labeling a vaccine warehouse being on fire in Italy get's shared around, despite the building having nothing to do with vaccines. "Moms for Liberty" in Williamson County TN share out some batshit propaganda to parents claiming students will be taught cannibalism, among other things. We respond to a local Knoxville/East TN podcast "Almost in Agreement" that brought up a disagreement with our podcast on their show regarding libertarianism and age of consent. And finally, Joe Manchin single handedly torpedoes Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" agenda prompting Mitch "Turtlehead" McConnell to invite him to the GOP.Links to the articles Omicron Becomes Dominant U.S. Strain With 73% of Covid Cases Fact Check-Video shows fire at Italian Carabinieri barracks not a COVID-19 vaccine warehouse Appeals court lets Biden administration enforce vaccine rules for large employers Mitch McConnell invited Joe Manchin to join the GOP after he tanked Biden's spending plan Bernie Sanders blasts Joe Manchin over Build Back Better opposition

With news that Democrats will likely be caving to pressure from “centrist” lawmakers like Sen. Joe Manchin, shelving President Joe Biden's Build Back Better package, and reneging on their campaign promises to voters, the party's electoral fortunes are looking bleak heading into 2022. If Democrats continue failing to deliver on their campaign promises, what will the repercussions be in states like Wisconsin—a key swing state that played a pivotal role in securing electoral victories for Donald Trump in 2016 and Joe Biden in 2020?Reporting from Wisconsin, TRNN's Jaisal Noor sat down with Robert Kraig, executive director of the pro-democracy nonprofit Citizen Action of Wisconsin, to discuss the steep hill Democrats already have to climb to combat voter suppression from Republicans, to say nothing of the struggle to keep voters from giving up on both parties entirely.Read the transcript of this interview: https://therealnews.com/democrats-are-in-for-a-world-of-hurt-in-swing-states-like-wisconsinPre-Production/Studio/Post-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing radically independent news and in-depth analysis by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer: Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-podSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/newsletter-podLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews

"This is a No." With that short four-word sentence, West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin has announced he cannot in good conscience vote for President Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" legislation. Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is responding by essentially triple-dog-daring Manchin to forget his scruples and change his mind. ABC News panelists are audibly aghast. How will we endure this "threat to our democracy"? Imagine the gall of a duly-elected member of the United States Senate reserving the right to vote anything other than 'Yes.' Oh, the temerity! Oh, the audacity! Oh, the humanity!

With the Senate now adjourned for the holidays and Joe Biden's “Build Back Better” social and climate package stalled if not dead (Senator Joe Manchin went on Fox News yesterday to announce he won't support it)*, Biden's remaining agenda is now at the mercy of the 2022 midterm election year — a perilous time to get anything enacted. So what should be Biden's and the Democrat's first priority when the Senate returns in January? I'm sure Biden still wants his Build Back Better package passed. But it's more important that the Senate now make voting rights its priority.Republican state legislatures will soon begin drawing partisan congressional maps that federal legislation could outlaw. Several states have already changed election laws in ways making it harder for people in minority communities to vote and giving Republican legislatures greater power over election outcomes.To be sure, any new national voting rights legislation depends on altering the senate filibuster so that the fifty Democratic senators (plus the Vice President) can pass it. (Senate Republicans have made it clear they won't support any voting rights legislation.) Hence the necessity of senate Democrats agreeing to carve out voting rights from the filibuster (back to Manchin again). I want to emphasize the urgency of this. Since the 2020 election, the foundations of our democracy have been gravely weakened. Just last Saturday, three top retired generals warned of a potential civil war in 2024 unless action is taken soon. Saving American democracy requires stopping three powerful forces on the way to destroying it.The first is Trump's big lie that the 2020 election was stolen from him. It's now believed by some 60 percent of Republican voters. The lie conveniently fits with the Republican Party's insight that demographic trends work against it unless it shrinks the electorate.The second is big anger spread by the media, especially Fox News and Facebook. It's boosting their ratings and revenues by inciting divisiveness, racism, panic, and paranoia. As a result, it's undermining the trust that democracy depends on. The third is big money from large corporations and wealthy individuals. It's inundating political campaigns, supporting one-sided issue ads, and bribing lawmakers on both sides of the aisle to support measures that will further enrich corporations and the wealthy and block measures that will cost them.The big lie, big anger, and big money reinforce each other because they all depend on Americans believing that democracy is rigged against them. And, to a shameful extent, it is. Urgent steps must be taken to counter all three.The first step is to set national voting-rights standards in light of Trump's Big Lie. Senate Democrats must enact the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act as soon as possible in January, when they have a chance to prevent even more Republican state efforts to suppress votes and take over electoral machinery. If they fail to do this, they will be complicit with the Republican Party in using Trump's big lie to shrink the electorate.Trump and his Republican co-conspirators must also be held accountable for their attempted coup in the months after the 2020 election, leading to the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Hopefully, the House committee now investigating it (with the crucial and courageous participation of Republican Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger) will report its findings early in the new year. Timing is essential. Republicans must not be allowed to delay the committee's work. If they take control of the House next year they surely will shut the committee down. Armed with the committee's findings, the Justice Department must take legal action against Trump and all lawmakers implicated in the attempted coup. Even before the committee reports, the Justice Department should impanel grand juries to weigh the evidence in its possession. The second step is to constrain big anger instigated by social media, Fox News, and other outlets. There are two ways to do this without undermining freedom of speech: Revoke Section 230 of the Communications Act, which now protects digital media providers from liability for the content posted by their users even if that content is harmful, hateful, or misleading. There is no continuing justification for this legal protection, particularly at a time when the largest of these providers have become vast monopolies. Create a new “fairness doctrine” requiring that all broadcasters, including cable, cover issues of public importance in ways that present opposing perspectives. This will be difficult to enforce, to be sure, but it would at least affirm the nation's commitment to holding broadcasters to a higher standard than merely making money.  The third step is to get big money out of politics. The current Supreme Court won't reverse the Court's shameful decision in Citizens United vs. FEC and related cases. A constitutional amendment allowing the government to limit money spent on campaigns is extremely unlikely. But campaign finance reform is possible by matching small donations with public dollars. This was in the original For the People Act and should be added to the Freedom to Vote Act.These are the minimal essentials for containing the big lie, big anger, and big money. All three steps are urgently needed. There is no time to waste. Biden, Democrats, and any remaining principled Republicans – along with the leaders of nonprofits, universities, labor unions, major foundations, grassroots organizations, racial-justice and environmental advocates, and business – must wage a war to save American democracy. This war must start immediately. Nothing else we do for America is as important. Nothing else that needs doing in America is possible unless we do this.  What do you think?__* I can't resist opining on West Virginia senator Joe Manchin's motive for announcing yesterday he won't support the “Build Back Better” social and environmental package. He delivered the deathblow on Fox News Sunday (after refusing to take Joe Biden's phone call presumably asking him not to make the announcement).The reasons Manchin gave are absurd on their face. He must know that.He said he's worried about inflation and the national debt. But Build Back Better would be paid for with tax increases on big corporations and the wealthy — so it won't have any bearing on inflation or the debt. More to the point, its sticker price of $1.75 trillion covers 10 years, during which the Congressional Budget Office projects $288 trillion worth of economic output. So a Build Back Better plan of $1.75 trillion would amount to roughly 0.6% of gross domestic product — or slightly more than the 0.5% of GDP Americans spent last year on tobacco. And that doesn't begin to cover all the benefits to the economy of investing in K-12 education, childcare, and so on. Manchin also claimed he's worried about the impact of the latest COVID surge on the economy. But if COVID slows the economy, that's even more justification for federal spending that strengthens social safety nets. And even more reason to support a program that could possibly stimulate the economy in the short run. He said he can't face his constituents in West Virginia without renouncing “Build Back Better.” But on a per-person basis, West Virginians would be among the biggest beneficiaries of the legislation in all America. One out of four West Virginians over 65 have no natural teeth, for example — the highest rate in the nation. Biden's original bill provided dental benefits under Medicare.So what's really motivating Manchin? Four possibilities:West Virginia is a coal state, and Manchin doesn't want to do anything that might dampen coal production (the bill has a number of environmental measures). Possibly, but Manchin must know there's no long-term future in mining coal regardless of what happens to this legislation. There are far fewer coal jobs left in West Virginia than there are jobs in health care. The legislation would, however, help West Virginians transition from coal to new and better jobs. And help them survive in the meantime.He's self-dealing. He owns stock valued at between $1 million and $5 million in Enersystems, a coal brokerage firm he founded in 1988? Last year he made half a million dollars in Enersystems dividends (roughly three times the $174,000 salary he made last year as a senator).He's takes bribes. He collects more campaign money from coal, oil, and gas companies than any other senator. (In June, Exxon lobbyist Keith McCoy told the Greenpeace investigative unit that Manchin participated in weekly meetings with company operatives.)He loves the power and attention. Who ever heard of Joe Manchin before the Biden administration? A minor-league Democratic senator from a small, poor state suddenly has the national spotlight and has become the biggest spoiler in the Democratic Party.Frankly, your guess is as good as mine.

Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin sent shock waves through the Democrats in Washington by announcing on Sunday that he will vote no on Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" legislation.  Manchin said the debt and inflation are just too high right now to look at socialist spending being pushed by radical Democrats. Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and others on the far left blasted Manchin and called for Biden to ignore the legislative process and do things himself.  Meanwhile amid high gas prices, massive inflation, a border crisis, and more, Joe Biden's poll numbers and approval ratings continue to fall. #BobbyEberle #JoeManchin #IlhanOmar

[00:30] Targeting Trump (18 minutes)Yesterday, the January 6 Committee moved to hold Mark Meadows in contempt for ignoring the Committee's subpoena (never mind the existence of the committee is unconstitutional). In response, Rep. Jim Jordan told Democrats, “[Meadows] has done more work with Democrats than probably any Republican. … But your lust for power … is so intense, you don't care.” Targeting Mark Meadows is just a stepping-stone to the ultimate target the Communists want to destroy: Donald J. Trump. [18:25] The Cost of ‘Build Back Better' (5 minutes)How much will Joe Biden's “Build Back Better” actually cost? The Congressional Budget Office gave its analysis of the bill yesterday. They concluded it will add $3 trillion to the deficit over the course of 10 years. [23:00] Adverse Reactions to the Vaccine (14 minutes)In one week—from November 26 to December 3—354 Americans died as a direct result of the coronavirus vaccine. Vaccinated athletes like soccer player Sergio Aguero are ending their athletic careers due to heart conditions. Airline pilots are dying at record rates in the year of the vaccine. When will the world realize how dangerous and unhealthy the “cure” is? As we have said from the beginning, the cure is worse than the disease. [37:45] Bible Study: Setting a Godly Example (16 minutes)Herbert W. Armstrong wrote about those who have God's Spirit within them, saying, “If the Spirit of God is in you, you will be plain and simple, you will put on no airs. … You will be humble. There won't be self-confidence. There will be faith in God, instead.” This is the kind of godly example Jesus Christ set when He was on the Earth. This is the kind of example God wants all of us to set in our Christian lives.

On today's Breitbart News Daily podcast, Facebook/Meta admits they define "fact" as "opinion." Thanks for finally admitting it! MSNBCCOMCASTUNIVERSAL stands on the soon-to-be-graves of dead tornado victims in order to push Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" agenda. Amazon and Jeff Bezos are in trouble for allegedly unsafe work conditions that have apparently lead to many deaths from the tornados, meanwhile the world's richest man keeps wearing cowboy hats and launching penis-shaped rockets with celebrities  aboard. Woke corporations are "investing" in Vice Pres. Kamala Harris's open borders agenda. And student loan payments are back on the stove, indicating that Bidenflation might be even worse than we thought. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is bucking the Brandon Administration by trying to send illegal aliens to Delaware and Martha's Vineyard, MA. Plus, updates on the expanding boycott of Kellogg's, the Jussie Smollett hoax and the male UPenn swimmer, Lia Thomas, who's breaking all sorts of women's records and reportedly bragging about it. Our guest today is Pastor Michael Foster, author of "It's Good to Be a Man"; we talk about how an emerging masculine renaissance could be good for males, great for society and could even benefit females as well.

“After years of hypocrisy and bungled forecasts of doom, the budget deficit no longer provokes panic,” economist Max Sawicky recently wrote in In These Times. “The elites need a new bogeyman, otherwise Congress might actually spend us into happiness. Now, the new monster in the closet is Inflation.” With all eyes on President Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan, which would entail massive and sorely needed social investments in education, healthcare, childcare, clean energy, and more, a familiar chorus of budgetary hand-wringers has emerged to argue that such social spending is the cause of increased inflation. As Sawicky argues, that's nonsense.In this segment of The Marc Steiner Show, Marc and Sawicky break down the current levels of inflation and discuss the political motivations behind the moral panic over inflation, which is essentially a new form of old-school deficit hawkery. Max Sawicky is an economist, writer, and senior research fellow at the Center for Economic and Policy Research; he has worked at the Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations, the Economic Policy Institute, and the Government Accountability Office.Tune in for new episodes of The Marc Steiner Show every Monday and Thursday on TRNN.Pre-Production/Studio: Stephen Frank, Dwayne GladdenPost Production: Stephen FrankHelp us continue producing The Marc Steiner Show by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer:Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-pod-mssSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/nl-pod-stGet The Marc Steiner Show updates: https://therealnews.com/up-pod-stLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews

The framework of President Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan, released last week, would provide about $550 billion for green energy investment. In this week's Tax Credit Tuesday podcast, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Novogradac partner Tony Grappone, CPA, discuss the implications of that potential legislation for renewable energy developers. They discuss what questions developers are asking about the current framework and what they should be doing now, supply-chain issues that have arisen since the COVID-19 pandemic and possibilities in repowering existing renewable energy properties.

Democratic leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives are signaling we could see a vote on large portions of President Joe Biden's Build Back Better agenda this week, including much-anticipated infrastructure measures. Progressives and moderates within the Democratic party say they are arriving at an understanding on those measures, as well as a number of social policy tenets of Biden's agenda. For transportation stakeholders there is a sense of urgency, as the infrastructure bill includes a five-year federal highway policy update. To avoid funding disruptions, the authority of the country's premier highway law was extended through Dec. 3.

Richard Dixon talks about the Alabama Senate filing six anti-vaccine mandate bills, a new study showing that those who are vaccinated spread the Delta variant of COVID at the same rate as the unvaccinated, radio format changes, the Western diet is tied to cognitive decline, Joe Biden's Build Back Better plan failing in Congress, the #BSQotD, and more!

After the promise of major legislation that would rival the impact of FDR's New Deal, Joe Biden's Build Back Better agenda has been sucked dry by corporate America and their pawns in the Senate. Instead of massive new programs to help children, parents, students, the elderly and all us by dealing with the climate crisis, Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema appear to have brought the $3.5 trillion bill down to some crumbs. And rather than having it all paid for by taxing the wealthy, they may be putting a halt to that plan, as well. This is a monumental disaster that will not only hurt the American people, but will once again expose the Democratic party as weak, feckless, and still in the grasp of Wall Street, the pharmaceutical industry and the usual special interests. Turnout for the 2022 midterm elections will be suffocated and the Republican party will feast on the Democrats' stupidity and ride back into power on it (with Trump waiting in the wings in 2024). Mike's joined by a great journalist and former Bernie speechwriter, David Sirota, to talk about where things stand and discuss the need for progressives in congress to HOLD THE LINE and not support these bills moving forward unless items like Paid Family Leave, Medicare Expansion, and taxing the ultra-rich are put back in.

Mixing things up today with Chad Benson guest hosting the Three Martini Lunch along with Jim Geraghty of National Review, the guys get a little crazy by starting with the Crazy Martini and a discussion of the White House framework for Joe Biden's Build Back Better agenda.For round two, Jim and Chad order up the daily Good Martini, celebrating the difficulties that the government is having with the enforcement of the vaccine mandate.Saved for last round today, the Bad Martini is served up with a discussion of recent GDP numbers and the possibility of a recession.

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Dr. Jodi Dean, Professor of Political Sciences at Hobart and William Smith Colleges and author of “Comrade: An Essay on Political Belonging” to discuss Mark Zuckerrberg's involvement in reinstating an anti-abortion video proclaiming falsehoods about abortion, how this video feeds into patriarchal conceptions of women as only child-bearers and child-rearers, and the complexity of the liberal critique of social media as “causing division.”In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by T.J. Coles, Postdoctoral researcher at Plymouth University in the UK and regular CounterPunch contributor to discuss the US history of training the Ethiopian military and how it fits into what's happening there today, the role of so-called peacekeeping missions in recent Ethiopian history, the militarization of the infrastructure of society, and the role of AFRICOM in Ethiopia.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Jalil Muntaqim, an activist, former political prisoner and Black Panther and author of ‘We Are Our Own Liberators' to discuss the In The Spirit of Mandela International Tribunal jurists finding the United States guilty of genocide against Black, Brown, and Indigineous people, the charges of racist violence that support this verdict, the next legal steps after this verdict, and the drive to build a people's movement around this verdict.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Gloria La Riva, coordinator of the Cuba and Venezuela Solidarity Committee, to discuss the gutting of Joe Biden's Build Back Better bill by corporate Democrats and the capitalist class, the stark contrast between the US handling of healthcare and the pandemic and Cuba's healthcare system, the violence that the US has exercised against Cuba, and the ongoing attempts by the US to destroy the Cuban revolution.

Democratic party leaders have been working to reach an agreement and finalize a deal on President Joe Biden's “Build Back Better” plan. The White House got on board with a proposal from Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren and others to prevent large, profitable corporations from paying nothing in federal taxes. Sen. Warren joins AC360 to discuss the latest on negotiations and says she's feeling “optimistic.” Plus, FDA advisers voted to recommend Pfizer's Covid-19 vaccine for children ages 5 to 11. Dr. Peter Hotez is the co-director of the Center for Vaccine Development at Texas Children's Hospital. He tells Anderson Cooper “we learned this summer that Covid-19's a very bad actor” in children of that age group and that's why we need the vaccine.

Lee Stranahan, co-host of The Backstory on Radio Sputnik, joins us to talk about the breaking news of an FBI raid at the Washington, DC home of Russian billionaire Oleg Deripaska, who has had ties to former Donald Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, whether this raid is in connection to this and continuing efforts targeting Russian oligarchs, and how Russiagate is still alive and well in the U.S. Mark Sleboda, international affairs and security analyst, talks to us about Russia suspending its observer mission to NATO after 8 of its diplomats were expelled after allegations of spying, what sort of diplomatic engagement did Russia have in NATO prior to this incident, what impact this decision could have in relations between Russia and NATO countries, and what this means for other countries like the Ukraine and China. We also talk about the extradition of Venezuelan envoy Alex Saab to the United States and the continued siege of the U.S. against Venezuela.Amanda Hall, campaign director for Dream Corps JUSTICE, joins us to talk about a recent academic study from the University of Chicago that conducted a wide ranging meta-analysis which concluded, among other revelations, that continued incarceration does not serve as an effective crime deterrent, and that in fact, could actually increase recidivism.

Ra Shad Frazier-Gaines, founder and chair of the Black Caucus of the Young Democrats of America and founder and chair of Black Progressives, joins hosts Michelle Witte and Bob Schlehuber to talk about the continued failure of the Democratic Party to pass Joe Biden's Build Back Better agenda, the continued backlash to America's two-party system, and the dirty money influencing the Virginia gubernatorial election.

Author Magdi Semrau recently wrote an article for The Editorial Board arguing that the media is badly misleading the public on Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" plan, and explaining some of the massive political consequences that we could see. And the Democrats have not only let it happen, they've actively seeded their own problems. Magdi joins the show to walk us through a major media distortion happening right before our eyes, and what Democrats can do to salvage the situation.

We start today by talking about the Left's rabid desire to get Joe Biden's "Build Back Better" spending package passed. Several activists followed Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema into a restroom to harass her for having reservations about the bill. Then, we discuss another proposed bill from a Democrat that would require vasectomies for "inseminators" once they have three kids or turn 40. The best part is, they really think it makes some kind of profound point about the "tyranny" of pro-life legislation. --- Today's Sponsors: Annie's Kit Clubs have an amazing selection of hobbies to choose from: crocheting, knitting, cardmaking, jewelry-making, quilting, & sewing.
