Welcome to Majority.FM's AM QUICKIE! Brought to you by justcoffee.coop TODAY'S HEADLINES: A look inside the unemployment department of the most populous state in the union reveals chaos, as millions await payment of their benefits. California’s broken system forces state workers to rely on the same lousy website as the general public for finding information. Meanwhile, New York prosecutors are investigating Donald Trump for bank and insurance fraud. It’s an expansion of the hush-money case involving Stormy Daniels. And lastly: Trump’s never-ending rants against Vote By Mail may backfire on Republicans. At least, that’s the fear of some down-ballot officials and campaign staff. THESE ARE THE STORIES YOU NEED TO KNOW: Tens of millions of Americans who’ve lost their jobs in recent months have no doubt been wondering what could possibly be going wrong inside their state unemployment offices. Thanks to an in-depth report by the Los Angeles Times, we have some answers. California’s Employment Development Department is so overwhelmed that Governor Gavin Newsom has admitted that the backlog of claims won’t be cleared until the end of September. More than nine million claims have been made since March. Of that, nearly one million unpaid claims are in limbo because the state requires more information to process them. Which means all those people who paid into the system and are entitled for benefits won’t get them when they are most in need. Current and former EDD officials spoke not only with the Times about internal problems but with state lawmakers during a hearing last week. One veteran state worker who transfered to EDD to help out with the claims backlog said her training was carried completely online. She was given an eight-hundred page manual and then left to fend for herself with an outdated computer system. Supervisors change every week, and many are reportedly unwilling to help subordinates resolve problems. The worker quit the agency after nine weeks. She said QUOTE I know I’m part of the problem because I don’t know what I am doing. I really feel bad for anyone trying to deal with EDD — particularly if they obviously do qualify for unemployment funds. ENDQUOTE. Another worker, hired through a temp agency for sixteen bucks an hour, said his training was inadequate. Not only that, the computer system was designed in such a way that he could not resolve people’s claims. When issues were sent to other departments within EDD, he could not attach notes to let colleagues know what problems needed to be solved. When people reach a benefits worker on the phone, they are often so frustrated that they are in tears, or so angry that they yell down the phone. Wait times for callbacks from EDD are four to six weeks. Some officials say the reliance on low-paid temporary workers is a leading cause of problem. But even experienced staff who know how to resolve claims say they aren’t empowered to act. Some frustrated EDD workers have advised callers to contact their elected officials if they want claims resolved in a more timely manner. Newsom has assembled a so-called strike team to develop a plan to improve the system, but a fix can’t come soon enough. California isn’t the only state with an overwhelmed unemployment system. In Nevada, the Times reported, three top state officials in the employment department have quit in recent months. The Nevada agency’s interim director left her job in June QUOTE due to threats to her personal safety ENDQUOTE. It’s pitchforks and torches out there, folks. Trump investigated for fraud New court filings show that Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance is investigating Donald Trump and his company for bank and insurance fraud. The new federal court filing argues that Trump’s accountants should be made to comply with a subpoena seeking eight years of his personal and corporate tax returns. According to the New York Times, the filings suggest a broader inquiry by New York prosecutors than they have previously acknowledged. Until now, the Times says, Vance’s inquiry appeared focused on hush-money payments by Trump to two women who said they slept with him: Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal. Those allegations involved less serious criminal charges than the allegations of financial fraud contained in the filings, made yesterday. Prosecutors cited newspaper investigations about Trump illegally inflating his net worth and the value of his companies in order to secure loans and insurance. They also cited comments made to Congress by Trump’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, alleging Trump committed insurance fraud. Cohen made that admission in response to questions from New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Trump’s new lawyers argue that the subpoena for financial records is illegal because, as a sitting president, Trump is immune from investigation. I guess we’ll see about that. "Rigged election" rhetoric backfires State and local Republican officials fear Trump’s constant attacks on mail-in voting may backfire for the party come fall. According to the Washington Post, leading Republicans in battleground states including Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Iowa are increasingly worried about the effect of Trump’s personal campaign to discredit the integrity of the election before it even takes place. Some, the Post says, are trying to create a false distinciton between mail-in balots and absentee ballots. Whereas mail-in ballots are bad, according to Trump, absentee ballots are supposedly more safe and secure. In reality, they are the same thing. Both go through the mail. Both get counted in the same way. Alabama Secretary of State John Merrill told the Post that voters in his state have been deeply confused by such rhetoric. He said feels felt compelled to explain to voters that there is only one kind of mail-in voting in Alabama, and that it is safe and secure. As downballot Republicans promote absentee balloting, the Trump campaign and the Republican National Committee are fighting the expansion of mail-in balloting during the coronavirus pandemic. But some Trump advisers have warned him he is going to far in attacking mail-in ballots as rigged. RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel and deputy campaign manager Justin Clark have all reportedly encouraged Trump to promote the use of absentee ballots. Nevertheless, Trump has shown no signs of backing off his rhetoric about the election being rigged. Both Vice President Mike Pence and Attorney General Bill Barr have also warned about what they claim is an increased risk of fraud with mail-in ballots, though they’ve offered no evidence. At least seventy-seven percent of American voters will be able to vote through the mail in the fall, according to the Post. A Monmouth University poll of Georgia voters taken late last month found that sixty percent of Democrats are at least somewhat likely to vote by mail in the fall, compared to only twenty-eight percent of Republicans. Glen Bolger, a Republican pollster, told the Post that in one swing state he studied, only fifteen percent of voters planning to cast ballots by mail were Trump supporters. Maybe Republicans will actually listen to their leader, and sit this election out. And now for some Quicker Quickies. According to Vice News, Amazon warehouse workers shut down a distribution center in the San Francisco Bay Area for several hours on Saturday. Demands by workers in the apparent wildcat strike included extra pay to cope with the cost of living and additional safety measures during the pandemic. A group called Bay Area Amazonians parked a caravan of cars in the warehouse lot, blocking delivery vans from leaving. Bravo, bellissimo! Spain’s former king Juan Carlos will soon enter a self-imposed exile, he said in a letter. The decision comes after revelations about his entanglements with secret offshore funds linked to Saudi Arabia. The letter didn’t say where the scandal-prone former king will go, but his decision is expected to take some heat off of his son, the reigning King Felipe. The Nation magazine reported yesterday that the Department of Homeland Security are targeting antifascist activists and attempting to link them to foreign powers. An intelligence report obtained by the magazine showed the Department built dossiers on several American citizens, including their social security numbers, home addresses, and social media accounts. Targeted individuals included Brace Belden, a journalist and labor organizer who fought against ISIS in Syria alongside a left-wing Kurdish militia. Belden responded QUOTE, the US government has been spying on and smearing communists for a hundred years, but they usually have the decency not to call a Red an anarchist! ENDQUOTE. At least four people planted mystery seeds that were mailed to addresses in more than a dozen US states from China. The US Department of Agriculture warned people last month not to plant the seeds, fearing invasive species. But not everybody heard the warnings, which went viral on social media. In some cases the seeds failed to grow. But one man in Arkansas said the seeds grew into a plant with orange flowers that produced large white fruit. The USDA is reportedly uncertain what the thing is, though it resembles a squash plant. No magic beanstalk, sorry. That’s all for the AM Quickie. Join us this afternoon on the Majority Report.

Transcript (uncorrected) Day 91 Sunday and Uncle Pedro has been doing his weekly Zoom meeting, he likes to surprise the regional Governments, just to remind them all he is the one in charge. So he has brought forward the date when Spain will open its borders to everyone except Portugal, so on Monday 22nd June the Lockdown will be over, for now and so will this Podcast, I still have the story to tell about one of the stupidest things I did some years ago. I will keep that for later in the week. But you can’t have a Podcast about Spain without mentioning the Spanish Royal family and in particular the former King of Spain, Juan Carlos de Borbón. It must be remembered that Juan Carlos although swore allegiance to Franco as soon as Franco had popped off, Carlos started the transition to democracy back in 1975, which, with one or two hiccups along the way, seems to have served Spain well, although there are some who would wish that Franco was still in charge. My Aunty Isobel who had a large portrait of Franco in her sitting room in Luton, She eulogised the man. She used to say things like, “when you come to Spain you will find no crime, because the General has eradicated it,” My late father used to describe Aunty Isobel’s rantings about how great Spain is under Franco’s rule as, bollocks, - he was very fond of that word, as are the Spanish, I often hear the word cojones used in everyday Spanish slang. Where we would say I couldn’t give a toss, the Spanish say they couldn’t give tres cojones, we might say I swear on my mother’s grave, the Spanish say Me corto los cojones, - I would cut my own balls off. Finally we say you will die laughing, the Spanish say descojonada , laugh your balls off. Sadly, King Juan Carlos hoping that he might be remembered as the great architect of Spain’s transition to democracy is overwhelmed by his terrible reputation as a corrupt old philanderer. He had been accused by an old German socialite – Fräulein Sayn-Wittgenstein of not only giving her a good old philander but of using her to squirrel away money in secret overseas assets. He also took the Fräulein on his secret trip in 2012 to Botswana to hunt elephants, most people are going to find it hard to like a man, let alone a King who in this modern age would think that was an OK thing to do. I have to say our own Royal Family quite like killing animals for sport as well, but I think Prince Philip would stop short at bagging an elephant, .. I think? He didn’t do very well with his trip to Botswana and managed to break his hip, which is how the scandal came about. But on previous occasions he had managed to kill one of these magnificent beasts and there is a picture of him standing next to a dead Elephant. At the time in 2012 he was the Honorary President of the World Wildlife Fund, I mean you couldn’t make this kind of thing up. In his younger days Juan Carlos loved nothing better than riding his Harley Davidson motorbike around Spain on his one King mission to philander as many eligible Spanish girls as he possibly could. He loved to ride along the hairpin bends, as they were then of the old coastal road that passes by the bottom of our estate here near Salobreńa, indeed some of the Kings friends from Almuńecar are still alive today and remember him travelling the coast on his own and without any security, well it was a different time. Now according to our friend Carmen he would pull up outside our estate and take the Canada, goat road down to the tiny secluded beach below us, park up his motorbike there and give some poor local girl he had met a good philandering. Then after jumping her he would jump back on his motorbike and disappear back to Madrid. The popularity of the King, amid the accusations of corruption and playboy lifestyle, tarnished the monarchy in Spain and made them quite unpopular. But suddenly, as things often happen in Spain, the King decided to abdicate in 2014 and was replaced by his son King Felipe the sixth of Spain. He is married to Letizia a former news journalist and a very glamorous Queen in the mode of Princess Diana. In dramatic contrast Felipe has set an example of a modern monarch, he is married to a former TV news journalist, they lead an understated life. A couple of months ago in a massive snub to his father Juan Carlos, he renounced his personal inheritance from his father, worth millions of Euros but coming from a secret offshore fund with ties to Saudi Arabia. Felipe has said he wants to renounce his inheritance along with any asset or financial structure who character is not in accordance with the law. A modern Monarchy for a new modern era, something that Spain badly needs in a time of the new normal and the exit from the Lockdown.

Dustin' off the Degree - Cults The word cult has a lot of meanings. For example, in archaeology describing something as cultic, just means that it was a religious site or artifact because in its original meaning, cult just means worship. At its most academic, all religions and religious groups are cults. However, if you use it like this to describe modern groups in conversations with almost anyone, you're using it wrong. On the other extreme, there are cult classics, TV shows, movies, comic books, etc that develop a cult following. Nobody actually worships the Firefly TV series, but it has developed a large following and quite a few dedicated fans. Many of groups we've talked about recently are considered cults by many, but I have avoided using it because how it's most commonly used is a pejorative for weird groups, but there is a meaning that is actually pretty well accepted, or at least unlikely to cause confusion. Generally cults are: New religious movements, arising since the mid 1800s High degree of devotion to a single leader Novel beliefs Deviate from social norms Isolate themselves from society Aggressively proselytize Separate members from friends and family Concepts like mind control as being a cult thing is really meaningless, because that's what all religion does, so if it's a cult, what they do is mind control and if it's not, then it's just discipleship. NEWS Spain's new atheist Prime Minister spells trouble for the Church On June 2 Pedro Sanchez became the new Spanish Prime Minister. What's most notable is he got this after his predecessor was kicked out over corruption. He's also an atheist. When he took his oath before King Felipe there was no Bible or crucifix, as was tradition, but the president of the bishop's conference still blessed him. Of course now the Catholic church is scared. He's campaigned against state funding of the Church, he wants to remove religious symbols from public institutions, and separate schools from religion. His party wants to advance gay rights and legalize euthanasia and the new foreign minister wants to reexamine Spain's treaty with the Vatican. The Catholic church is calling this an “aggressive secular agenda”. Ireland to vote on removing blasphemy as an offence Legalizing abortion wasn't the end of constitutional reforms in Ireland. They will hold a referendum in October to remove blasphemy from their constitution. Next up will be a reference to a “woman's life within the home”. Boy Scouts still won't accept atheists Boy Scouts of America National Executive Board Resolution Reaffirming Duty to God "WHEREAS the Declaration of Religious Principle in Bylaws of the Boy Scouts of America states that: "The recognition of God as the ruling and leading power in the universe and the grateful acknowledgement of His favors and blessings are necessary to the best type of citizenship and are wholesome precepts in the education of the growing members. No matter what the religious faith of the members may be, this fundamental of good citizenship should be kept before them." Congressional Leaders Aim To Slip Johnson Amendment Repeal Into 'Must-Pass' Bill This Year Ralph Reed is the chairman of the Faith and Freedom Coalition and told the Road to Majority Conference that he's working with the Republican leadership in the Senate to put a repeal of the Johnson Amendment in a must pass bill this year. This was tried in the House version of the 2018 Omnibus, but that portion was ruled as being out of order by the Senate parliamentarian. Politics hijacked the SBC Mike Pence spoke at the Southern Baptist Convention where there were 10,000 people present. He took the opportunity to basically turn it into a campaign rally. Many people there gave him lots of applause and many, including the new president of the SBC, were offended by him politicizing their religious convention. DISCUSSION - Think of the children
