Podcast appearances and mentions of tiffany cross

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum define our democracy (what’s left of it). Nowadays it’s popular to say that the USA is a “democracy in decline.” But what does that actually mean when for many of us the system has been failing! Our hosts identify specific areas where our democracy has crumbled and begin to answer the question: exactly HOW and WHY has our democracy failed? This will be an ongoing conversation, and we’d love your input, send us a video! Speaking of ongoing conversations, we hear your pushback to this idea that we ought to stand in solidarity with migrants. In a video we received, one of y’all was also questioning the idea that there could ever be self-sufficient communities for Black and Brown folks. We’ll play that video so the hosts can respond to your criticism. We love being in conversation with y’all, even when we disagree! We invite you to think radically, consult your local communities, and imagine how our democracy can be salvaged–or completely reconstructed??

Trump’s justice department has drastically scaled back its support for anti-crime initiatives. They’ve cut $500 million in grants from 200+ organizations focused on violence prevention. Angela Rye went LIVE to talk about the impact of these cuts on violence prevention in the Black community with two folks doing the work: Rev. Michael McBride (Pastor Mike) is the executive director for LIVE FREE USA, a national organizing and social change network committed to ending the criminalization of people of color, reducing gun violence and transforming the policing and the criminal justice system. He is a national leader in the movement to implement community violence intervention and he serves as the Lead Pastor of The Way Church in Berkeley, CA. Support Pastor Mike’s work at https://livefreeusa.org/ and follow him @impastormike_ Wesley Moore created the mentoring and youth leadership program, Our Brothers Keeper (OBK) in 2016. OBK has provided temporary housing, employment, and skill training workshops for youth and young adults ages 14-25. Before OBK, he started a construction company that focuses on providing temporary housing for youth transitioning out of foster care and families transitioning out of shelters.

If you feel like giving up and tuning out in this political moment–that is by design. Hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum discuss how to stay motivated under a relentless Trump 2.0 and the nonstop news cycle. Our hosts have laid eyes on some Black communities working to become more self-sufficient during these dark times and they want to tell you about them.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum interview Atlanta’s former mayor–and now GA gubernatorial candidate–Keisha Lance Bottoms. And we’ll respond to some of your criticism… Last week we did an episode about migrant rights that some of y’all pushed back on in the comments. Some challenged the notion that we ought to stand alongside communities who, according to some, do not stand alongside the Black community. Moreover, we hear your criticism that y’all want to know what to do and not necessarily just a lecture. We’re here for this back-and-forth, let’s talk. Gubernatorial candidate Keisha Lance Bottoms tells us what she learned from Stacey Abrams near-miss in Georgia, offers a thought or two on the situation at FAMU, and opens up about her strategy to win rural voters. It’s not all about the ATL y’all! NLP will be joining the State of the People tour next Saturday 5/31 in Jackson Mississippi!

Hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum are no strangers to Fox News telling lies. Recently, Fox misrepresented and subtly mocked Mayor Ras Baraka for comparing himself to the biblical figure David while on stage for Angela Rye’s State of the People tour. Angela’s not sure if she should be upset about it and is looking to her hosts for advice. Should we care about what the lying made-for-the-comfort-of-white-audiences news says? Or are we better off ignoring them? Here is the piece that Fox wrote up: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/watch-newark-mayor-compares-self-biblical-hero-wake-ice-protest-arrest-this-our-david-moment And the video clip that they pulled from: https://www.youtube.com/live/G6W67LIzAE4 Find out more about the State of the People tour: https://stateoftheppl.com/ If you’d like to submit a question, check out our tutorial video: www.instagram.com/reel/C5j_oBXLIg0/ Welcome home y’all! —--------- We want to hear from you!

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum speak with the Mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka. The Mayor made headlines last Friday after he was arrested by ICE while protesting a new ICE detention facility in his home city. Mayor Baraka’s arrest comes in the context of Trump’s sprawling campaign of retribution against his “political enemies.” From law firms, to judges, to universities and elected officials–Trump is weaponizing the federal government against anyone he perceives to have wronged him. The legal attacks are often effective even if his administration doesn’t win the case… Today our hosts discuss government retaliation. The chilling effect of these attacks could have long term impacts on free speech, the application of justice, and our ability to govern. Mayor of Newark, New Jersey, Ras J. Baraka is a Newark native, poet, and educator. Under his leadership, Newark achieved a 60-year low in crime, replaced 23,000 lead service lines, and reduced homelessness by 57%. A member of Alpha Phi Alpha, Ras is a lifelong advocate for equity and opportunity. He’s now running a campaign for Governor of New Jersey.

Florida A&M University is in search of a new president. Several finalists have been put forward, including Marva Johnson, who has strong ties to Governor DeSantis and his anti-DEI, anti-Black history stances. Members of the community spoke out against candidate Johnson, calling her a “political plant.” Will the board of trustees appoint a MAGA-like president or listen to the will of the community? Hosts Andrew Gillum, Tiffany Cross, and Angela Rye will discuss.

A staggering amount of Washington babies are testing positive for drugs. The Supreme Court heard oral arguments today on a case that has potentially significant implications for religious liberty. Elizabeth Warren had a very awkward exchange when a podcaster confronted her about past comments she made about Joe Biden’s mental state. // LongForm: GUEST: Former Washington Senate Candidate Tiffany Smiley on the State Supreme Court ruling in Spokane, trans athletes in girls sports, and Washington’s budget crisis. // Quick Hit: A Texas man who allegedly threatened Kristi Noem and ICE Agents will remain in jail. CNN’s Scott Jennings embarrassed Tiffany Cross.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum host a special guest from the State of the People Tour. Ray Lewis went viral after delivering a fiery speech during a Q&A session at an SOTP town hall. “The only person who can save the streets is someone who comes from it,” he said. We agree–it’s exactly voices like Ray’s that we should be paying attention to in this political moment–and that’s why we’re having him on. Ray Lewis is a former street figure turned powerful voice for transformation and empowerment. He’s built a reputation as a fearless advocate for the hood, the communities he came from. Along with the folks at the Offenders Alumni Association, Ray uses his formidable energies to guide people—especially the youth—away from the path he once walked. We felt his energy when he spoke from the audience on the SOTP tour and had to bring him on the show. Follow @Ray_lewis2 on Instagram. The interview with Ray leads to a larger conversation about empowerment, political engagement, and the need for lived experiences to be at the forefront of driving change. To spark a mass movement, we need to reach the disaffected and forgotten; that’s just the kind of work that Ray does every day.

On our last main episode, Angela Rye pointed out that “apathy” won the last election. Trump won the popular vote with 77+ million votes. However, nearly 90 million voting-age Americans did not vote at all. On today’s SoloPod, Angela speaks with one of those non-voters to talk through his decision. It turns out “apathetic” is the last word we’d use to describe him. Our guest, Reginald Henderson, is an entrepreneur, community advocate, and facilitator from Dayton, Ohio. He is captivated by design, loves to explore and experiment, and appreciates the intersection of beauty and function that is essentialism. Reginald currently manages his family-owned pest removal business: Ladybug Services. Want to ask Angela a question? Subscribe to our YouTube channel to participate in the chat.

Hosts Tiffany Cross and Andrew Gillum ask: what do you think white folks think the meaning of movies like Sinners and Get Out is? Beyond the box office smash hits, films made by Black and Brown creators have shaped the lives of our hosts–and countless folks across the globe.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum discuss one of the United States’ main exports: rightwing populism. While the U.S. is constricting imports from other countries (with serious shortages looming), we continue to be a major exporter of culture, including MAGA culture. We can trace rightwing populist ideology’s spread AND learn a thing or two for our own movements. We’ll revisit a question we posed on a past MiniPod: should our podcast feature conservative guests? Our hosts have thoughts on this one y’all. Tens of thousands of government employees are set to be re-classified as “schedule F” political appointees by the Trump administration. Glancing at Project 2025… This looks like preparation for mass layoffs at the Federal government. Finally, Angela gives us an update on the State of the People tour. She’s on a quest to find the apathetic voters!

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum are TOGETHER IN MIAMI!! This week’s convo kicks off with a listener question: why not move to Africa? But for real, it’s cheaper to live there or open a business–plus there’s a tradition of Black Americans moving to Africa. However, we DON’T want to be moving like white colonizers. The Trump administration has threatened to pull funding from Universities that teach subjects they don’t approve of, like Critical Race Theory and LGBTQ+ studies (so much for the party of free speech). How do we protect freedom of thought in our schools and institutions from a repressive authoritarian government? Reverend Al Sharpton has had talks with Target’s CEO about DEI after a boycott of the company initiated by Pastor Jamal Bryant. Not everyone approves of the Reverend inserting himself into the situation, which begs the question: who gets to call themselves a leader of the Black community? Are we a leaderless movement?? A shout-out to the State of the People Tour which kicks off in Atlanta this week! A special thanks to Angela Rye for showing up to work at NLP today despite being DEEP in organizing mode.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks about Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s alarming announcement about the shocking rise in rates of autism, especially in young boys; Senator Chris Van Hollen's embarrassing failed mission to bring Kilmar Ábrego García back to the United States from El Salvador after his deportation; White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt sharing new information about Kilmar Ábrego García's record of spousal abuse and the evidence linking him to MS-13 gang members; Patty Morin mother of the murdered Rachel Morin reacting to her Democratic Senator paying more attention to illegal immigrant Kilmar Ábrego García than her murdered daughter; Shermichael Singleton pointing out to CNN's Tiffany Cross the new information about Kilmar Ábrego García that should make Democrats think twice before turning his deportation to El Salvador into a cause; and much more.

Gen Z Responds to Roland’s Black Bank of Justice Pt. 1 This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum host a cross-generational discussion with three politically active youths. Our young guests respond to Roland Martin’s statement from last week’s show that young folks are withdrawing from the Black bank of justice without making their own deposits.

Governor Whitmer on Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist AND her visit with Trump. This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum are joined by the Governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer. Governor Whitmer’s term is almost over and the race to succeed her is on. Notably, she has not endorsed her Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist (nor anyone else). Lt. Gov Gilchrist is a friend of the show and the Black community, and so the hosts must ask: what gives? PLUS Governor Whitmer has said she’s open to working with Trump and she was even spotted recently at the White House in a somewhat embarrassing photo. We’ll get to the bottom of her controversial decision to meet with the president; was the meeting productive or was she just used as a photo-op prop? And of course we’ll hear from you!

Andrew Gillum goes LIVE with Gen Z organizer Deyona Burton who shares her insight into how self-care and activism go hand in hand. Burton first made waves in 2020 when she led the effort to change the name of her Florida highschool from “Robert E. Lee” to “Riverside” High. Then, while attending FSU, Deyona Burton rose to national prominence as the Director of Programs for College Democrats of America. Her accolades include being honored at the White House, an impactful TEDx talk, earning the President’s Volunteer Service Award, and being named the 2024 National Action Network’s MLK Youth Honoree. Having contributed to campaigns and worked within offices at local, state, and national levels, Deyona now continues her mission to drive change from Washington, D.C.

Hosts Angela Rye and Tiffany Cross LET IT ALL OUT in this week’s MiniPod. They’ll critique certain Dems (cough cough Senator Booker cough cough), fret over the CRAZINESS of everything, and contemplate the viability of “the system” that is America.

Washington Democrats to make it more difficult and expensive to quit smoking. Democrats also said that a wealth tax is off the table. The Left is claiming that the SAVE Act is tantamount to voter suppression. // LongForm: GUEST: WeHeartSeattle founder Andrea Suarez’s office was defaced with threats: “Kill Nazi Scum.” // Quick Hit: A Texas man who allegedly threatened Kristi Noem and ICE Agents will remain in jail. CNN’s Scott Jennings embarrassed Tiffany Cross.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross and Angela Rye are joined by special guest-host: Roland S Martin (of Roland Martin Unfiltered). Roland is one of the most vital sources of independent news for the Black community; his YouTube channel @rolandsmartin has 1.8 million subscribers and counting. Today’s show kicks off with Trump’s attacks on the Blacksonian (National Museum of African American History) and the massive protests against him over the weekend. A lot of folks are complaining about the Trump administration but we don’t see enough doing; Roland says younger generations are “withdrawing from the bank of justice” without making any deposits. How do we help Black folks battle the apathy and feel their agency? Tariffs–tariffs for everyone! Or not? Let’s be 100% clear y’all: tariffs are a tax that WE will pay. Our hosts explain how tariffs work, why they were put in place, and who benefits (SPOILER ALERT: it’s not us). Male enrollment at HBCUs is hitting historical lows, mirroring attendance at colleges nationwide. This represents a failure to engage men in the educational process that starts well before college. The hosts discuss causes, impacts, and potential solutions. Host Andrew Gillum is out this week. He’s on a field trip with the kids to NASA. Have fun Andrew! And of course we’ll hear from you!

The Trump administration has issued an executive order to remove Black history from the Smithsonian. It targets “woke ideology,” the trans-Atlantic slave trade, and anything else that might make white folks uncomfortable. Yes, we know that LOTS of TRUE history makes white folks uncomfortable. But Trump has more to gain by this Soviet-style erasure than just avoiding scary feelings… Angela Rye goes LIVE to breakdown Trump’s latest Executive Order, “Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History.” Want to ask Angela a question?

Hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany Cross, along with guest-host Elie Mystal, respond to a provocative listener question submitted by Dr. B.J. Brunious. Dr. Brunious saw last week’s episode and, as a Black gay man, was TRIGGERED. He doesn’t know anyone who identifies as “gay” before “Black” (as was discussed last week). He asks how it came to be that some Black folk think that one group’s gains (hispanics, LGBTQ, etc.) mean the Black community’s loss? Isn’t this the same logic used by white people AGAINST the Black community all the time?

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, AND guest-host Elie Mystal celebrate Senator Cory Booker for his 25-hour (!) protest speech. Booker set the record for the longest speech in Congress EVER. Our guest-host Elie Mystal is the justice correspondent for The Nation, where he writes radical truths about our flawed justice system. This former attorney turned thought leader is one of the most hilarious, well-spoken, and pointed progressive voices out there–if you don’t know him, get to! He’s just released a new book, Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is having a temper tantrum; he has cancelled ALL votes on the House floor after he failed to quash a bipartisan bill that would allow new parents in Congress to vote remotely. GOD FORBID Congress make allowances for new mothers. Was the Supreme Court decision that mandated integration a mistake?? Our hosts take a fresh look at Brown v. Board of Education with Elie Mystal and discuss movement building in the Democratic party. Elie explains how a shared history of racist laws and practices shapes this moment, how the left can (and should) adopt certain strategies from the right, and how to find hope even in the darkest times.

Elon Musk was the largest donor in the 2024 presidential election–and now he’s setting himself up to be the main financier of MAGA candidates. Host Angela Rye takes us to a race in Wisconsin for a Supreme Court seat, where Musk is bribing voters and handing out million-dollar checks in unhinged (and possibly illegal) publicity stunts. Meanwhile, in Louisiana, Curtis James Jackson (AKA 50 Cent) dropped a video where he endorsed an amendment to the state’s constitution that would have significantly lowered the income tax for the wealthiest people in the state (such as himself). Despite the deceptive nature of some of these amendments and their deliberately misleading names, voters showed up to hand MAGA the L. Want to ask Angela a question?

Part 2 looks at the Black community's approval of Trump and the Democratic party. New data (brought to us by our guest and President of HIT Strategies Terrance Woodbury) shows the Democratic party losing support from what has historically been its most reliable voting base: Black folks. Meanwhile, Trump’s approval has doubled since 2017. What gives? And where do we go from here? Civil rights advocate Gary Chambers has some answers, as do our hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum.

The results are in: do Black men & women see politics the same way? This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum just have one thing to say: the numbers don’t lie–we finally got a poll of Black People y’all!! With guests Terrance Woodbury, Democratic pollster, and Gary Chambers, civil rights advocate and perennial candidate (you might remember his blunt-smoking campaign ad). One thing the data makes plain: there is a significant difference of values between many Black men and Black women. In a conversation that at times becomes heated, the hosts discuss those differences with their guests. How many Black folks voted this last election? What motivates people to go to vote OR not? How can Democrats adjust their strategy and messaging to appeal to the (often disillusioned) Black community? President of HIT Strategies Terrance Woodbury has been conducting the polls and has some crucial answers. AND we have to cover Trump’s recent executive order that gives the federal government more control over voting registration. If it clears legal challenges, the changes will make it more difficult to register to vote, a classic GOP voter suppression strategy. And of course we’ll hear from you!

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum talk about the single most powerful force in Washington DC: the special interests. Why is it that our political leaders so often act in opposition to the will of the voters? There is an industry of lobbyists and special interest groups that donate unlimited amounts of money (thanks Citizens United) to fund our politicians' campaigns, gain access to their offices, and influence their decision making. On today’s episode our hosts de-mystify the D.C. machine–who do our politicians REALLY work for? We’re looking at you, BlackRock. Check out who donates to YOUR representatives at www.opensecrets.org/ Speaking of the influence of special interests, Palestinian Mahmoud Khalil has been separated from his family and jailed for protesting the war in Gaza while he was a graduate student at Columbia University.

Racism, Race-baiting, and Why Is It All About Race Anyway? Our hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany cross weigh the age-old question: can Black people be racist? Well first it depends what we mean when we say “racism.” Moreover, why is it that every time someone tries to point out structural racism online, some troll just has to accuse them of “race-baiting”?

Shutdown or Shut Up: Why Won’t Dems Fall in Line? Reflecting on Bloody Sunday This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum have a call to action: fast from Target. Pastor Jamal Bryant has called for a fast of Target stores, a 40 day boycott that started on March 6th. The company has rolled back DEI initiatives despite being one of the largest employers of Black Americans. Our hosts check on the progress of the fast and discuss how to minimize harm. A government shutdown is looming, funding runs out at midnight this Friday unless Congress can pass a new budget. Republicans want to pass a stop-gap measure called a “continuing resolution,” a slimmed down version of the current budget that would put off decisions on a new budget until the Fall. They need Democratic votes to get it through the Senate. Is there any reason Democrats should comply? While the new Education Secretary Linda McMahon lays off 50% of the Department of Education’s workforce, Trump sends threatening letters to universities. Citing civil rights laws, the Trump admin says it will pull federal funding from schools that allow pro-Palestinian protests. We’ve just passed the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday, when civil rights marchers fighting for the right to vote were attacked by police while peacefully marching across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama. How far have we come since then? And of course we’ll hear from you!

Hosted by Angela Rye and Roy Wood Jr., and co-created by Joy Reid, this is the three-hour primetime event of a 24 hour (!) livestream dubbed The State of the People that aired Tuesday March 4th. You’ll hear from members of congress such as Maxine Waters, Jasmine Crockett, Ayanna Pressley, Maxwell Frost, Yvette Clarke, Lisa Blunt Rochester, and more. Activists such as Brittany Packnett Cunningham, LaTosha Brown, Bishop Leah Daughtry, Dr. Wes Bellamy, and Quentin James. And so many others–Gary Chambers, Pastor Jamal Bryant, Tamika Mallory, Governor Wes Moore–you gotta see it to believe it.

The Forming of the Revolution was Televised! The Opposition Gets in Formation at SOTU This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum offer some counter programming to Trump’s “State of the Union” address. On the same days as the speech, Angela Rye along with Joy Reid and others gathered an incredible lineup of Black leaders for a 24 hour livestream, dubbing it The State of the People. Rather than responding to the propaganda, this prolific gathering offered an alternative path forward, choosing to see this moment as an opportunity, not just a setback. Get inspired and energized, watch the full stream on NLP’s YouTube channel and at stateofthepeople.media There was some DRAMA during Trump’s SOTU though. Rep. Al Green was escorted out after he brandished his cane and shouted at Trump, and a cohort of Democrats walked out on their own, led mainly by Black Women of the progressive and Black caucases’. We spoke with representatives on their way out, including Maxwell Frost, Ayanna Pressley, Jasmine Crockett, Maxine Waters, and more. Finally, it looks like the Target boycott had a little bit of an effect. According to Similarweb, Target web traffic was down 1.0% to 4.7 million on Feb. 28 compared to the previous Friday's 4.8 million and traffic on the Target app was down 10.9% to 3.5 million users compared to 3.9 million the previous Friday.

Fox News host Jesse Watters accused Atlanta Pastor Jamal Bryant of racism for statements the pastor made about Black Trump supporters. Specifically, Black Trump supporters who threatened the pastor’s life (or at least his bodily freedom) at a White House event. NLP hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum clap back.

Why Cuts to Medicaid & SNAP Will DEVASTATE America. Should Dems Skip the SOTU? This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum brace for the long night (shout out GOT fans). House Republicans passed a budget framework that includes massive cuts to Medicaid and SNAP benefits, plus huge tax breaks for the wealthy. Trump is literally going to war with the poor. It’s not hyperbole to say that millions of American lives are at risk. Meanwhile, big shakeups at MSNBC mean there is even less representation in cable news these days. We grieve the loss of Joy Reid’s show, The ReidOut, and ask: would boycotting cable news be more harmful or helpful? Should Democrats show up to Trump’s State of the Union address? With Trump dismantling our democracy and the GOP pushing for devastating cuts to the social safety net, attending this yearly ceremony may just be a bad look. Lastly: WE WON!! Our first NAACP Image Award is in the bag, we won in the outstanding news & information podcast category. It’s all thanks to you, our NLP fam. THANK YOU!!! And of course we’ll hear from you!

SEASON 3 EPISODE 101: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and replaced him with a junior officer he brought back from retirement whom HE claims once wore a MAGA cap in his presence. Then he fired the Judge Advocate of the army, the Judge Advocate of the Navy, and the Judge Advocate of the Air Force. What you have been told by news organizations – even ones that still have good reporters – that this is part of the Trump Racism Orgy. The fired Joint Chiefs Chairman Charles Q. Brown is black. The Chief of Naval Operations was a woman. Their identities are cover stories and red meat for the Trump cult. Trump looked at the top lawyers at the Army, Navy and Air Force, the ones who would tell him, no, you can’t have the Army shoot civilians, and you can’t have the Navy blockade Vancouver and Greenland and the Panama Canal, and you can’t bomb the next Democratic convention… and he fired them. At least six different reporters and commentators on the military beat said the same thing. Firing the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs is bad and a red flag. Firing the T-JAGS, the Judge Advocates, the lawyers who tell you when something you are going to do with the military is illegal… can mean only one thing… you are planning to do something with the military that is illegal. You fire the people who would SAY it’s illegal and replace them with people who would say it ISN’T illegal. There are degrees of nightmare ahead. They all amount to different versions of Trump's plot to permanently take over the government by using the military. B-Block (26:20) THE FIRING OF JOY REID: Yes, firing her is racist and maybe worse yes it is designed to keep out people who might think differently and it is designed to reward professional political salespeople like party chairmen and press secretaries. But most of all, since they also fired Alex Wagner, it means that four women of color have solo hosted prominent shows ON MSNBC and all four of them have now been fired. C-Block (58:00) SPORTSBALL CENTRAL: I could not have been more wrong about hockey's Four Nations Faceoff. But at least I wasn't as wrong as Wayne Gretzky, now under deserved attack in Canada as a remorseless Trumpist, and rapidly becoming The Man Without A Country. (1:11:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Senator Thom Tillis begins to suck up to Trump. Jared Polis, "Democratic" governor of Colorado, should resign. So too should Phil Murphy, "Democratic" governor of New Jersey.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley on Reparations and Democratic Party Strategy. Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley does not mince words; if you are not a part of the resistance then you are a part of the problem. In this interview with hosts Angela Rye, Tiffany Cross, and Andrew Gillum, this progressive Democrat outlines her frustrations with her own party and what she believes that fight against Musk and Trump should look like. Part of the fight is not giving up on the Black agenda! Amidst this assault on DEI, Congresswoman Pressley and some of her colleagues have put forward a national reparations bill.

With all the litigation attempting to stop Trump, Musk and DOGE–this week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum ask: do these court cases even matter? We like to think that there are three co-equal branches of government, the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. But ith one of his latest executive orders, Trump has made it clear that he believes his word is the law. So even if the Supreme Court rules against him, will he respect that ruling? Elon Musk says that DOGE is going to hand out $5,000 checks to taxpayers after they make huge cuts to the federal government. Is this how Republicans win the messaging war, by cutting us a check while they sell our government for parts?

NLP Hosts CLAP BACK to Kendrick Super Bowl Haters Hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum ask: how is it that some Black folk become so heinously anti-Black?

The House is on FIRE! Democrats React to COUP feat. Congressman Frost. This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum address the Trump/Musk power grab, which has swiftly become a constitutional crisis. Joined by Representative Maxwell Frost (Florida-10), the hosts have some tough questions about what Democrats are doing to limit Trump and Musk’s overreach. Why did they let a plain clothed, skinny white man keep them out of the Department of Education?? Congressman Frost, a former activist and first Gen Z congressional representative, thinks he knows EXACTLY what Democrats must do. Why is this a constitutional crisis? Well, in defiance of the congressional “power of the purse,” Elon Musk’s DOGE continues to consolidate power, and in defiance of court orders from the judiciary, Trump’s executive orders (like the federal funding freeze) are in full swing and having real world impact. The executive branch is staging a coup, usurping power from Congress and the courts, and threatening the balance of power that has maintained U.S. democracy for 250 years. Let’s talk about it!

Vote for NLP in the NAACP IMAGE AWARDS at https://vote.naacpimageawards.net/ An email has gone out to 3 million+ federal employees–virtually the entire federal workforce–offering them a buyout to resign.
