Thanks to the award-winning reporting from John Solomon, the Washington Examiner, Breitbart, Red State, Conservative Review, etc., the American people are still able to get the truth. This is investigative journalism at its finest. Sadly impeachment favorability numbers are at their highest level. Help us to disseminate the truth in order to subvert the rogue democrat party in the US House of Representatives. Please share this podcast with everyone you're able to share it with. It is a comprehensive audio litany of all of the unfortunate missteps the democrats and their mainstream media allies have taken in setting up their "Soviet Style Star Chamber" to take out the 45th President of the United States. We are at a crossroads here and now in this nation. It is time for freedom loving Americans in every corner of the United States to stand up and push back against the ongoing tyranny being perpetrated by Speaker Pelosi, Majority Leader Hoyer, and Intelligence Committee Chairman Schiff. Just who in the hell do they think they are fooling? Over my dead body will this continue in the "People's House!" GOD SAVE THE PRESIDENT! GOD BLESS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

Right after the 2016 election, Krystal Ball wrote a HuffPost essay titled "The Democratic Party Deserved to Die." As you can imagine, the post went viral ... and out of it came a new book AND a new political project. The book is entitled Reversing the Apocalypse: Hijacking the Democratic Party to Save the World, and it has drawn widespread praise for its honest assessment of the state of the party AND what to do about it. Here's our review of the book. And here's where you can order it on Amazon Kindle. The new project is The People's House, a project to challenge incumbent Republicans throughout Appalachia and the Midwest. The project is just launching, and you can visit the web site here. In our interview, Krystal Ball discusses her move to Kentucky, the People's House project, and her insights into the party and how to rebuild it. She also spends some time talking about the economic plight facing so many of our citizens, and how automation is going to make their situation even worse, and we take some time to talk about Social Security for All as an answer to the coming loss of jobs caused by automation. This is a wide-ranging and rich interview -- give it a listen!
