The latest GOP debate was full of lies & innuendos as was expected. Beyond that, it was a battle of the worst of the worst competing to rule over the rest of the worst. The spoils being the charred, decimated remains of our once great Democracy.

Donald Trump is just the latest in a long line of Republican party crooks! Dean Obeidallah and Thom Hartmann reveal the history of the GOP’s undying love & protection of crime & criminals

Do you really want faceless tech corporations like META, X and Google knowing what you sent in that email to your lover, the passwords to your bank accounts or the websites you visit in incognito mode? Ishan Mehta joins Thom Hartmann to talk about how restoring Net Neutrality could save your privacy.

Donald Trump continues facing the consequences of his crimes. The latest, at the time of this program, is a NYC fraud case.

The GOP shutdown could destroy America’s credit rating. Nobody wants a BAD credit rating!! Certainly not the USA who’s gold rating will be tarnished if the government shuts down due to the GOP’s sturm und drang. Furthermore, the rating could even go negative if the government doesn’t pay its bills on time. The GOP proves once again they can’t govern and they can’t manage money.

Gas prices are about to climb Mt. Everest. And, there is a VERY nefarious reason for it…Thom Hartmann explains.

Robert Kennedy Jr. says, “I’ve always been aligned with libertarians on most issues.” Bobby, of course, isn’t the only one. It’s high fashion across the GOP to claim your Libertarian credentials. First, Ron and then, Rand Paul turned it into a money making scam. Meanwhile, most of the GOP’s ‘Putin Caucus’ love to talk up libertarianism as well…as do multiple rightwing billionaires. Senator Mike Lee has been a self-proclaimed Libertarian for years. It’s clearly visible in the talking points of Republican members of Congress as well as conservative pundits who argue that shutting the government down is a “good thing.” Why? Because, in their view, most government functions are “unnecessary” or (God forbid!) “woke.” So, let’s look at how libertarianism would work in America and how it got here to begin with.”

Fascists like Donald Trump must never again be allowed to hold power or the rights America defines itself by could be put to death…literally. The former president is calling for the demise of his enemies…including a military general who - in Trump’s view - deserves the “death penalty” for publicly criticizing the former president. Seriously?!

Menedez is in hot water but these corrupt oligarchs created a world where corruption isn’t just allowed, it’s called lobbying.

Climate Change is not impossible to solve and, in fact, Earth may already hold the answers. We need to be looking to our planet’s past for solutions to our future.

Joyce Nance, author, comedian, and former call screener at The Thom Hartmann Program is battling cancer and Big Pharma

United Auto workers have more than the boss to take on now. The most anti-labor president in history is set to use UAW workers and the entire labor movement as props. Will American workers remember how Trump screwed them over? Vote Union, Dump Trump…

The bad news is that the GOP is rolling back animal rights protections. But, their cruelty doesn’t stop at puppy mills. These GOP animal abuse advocates are going to cause the next pandemic. Will Captain Trips rise again?

When Abraham Maslow wrote the “hierarchy of human needs,” he may have overlooked a critical point. This overlooked basic human need may, in fact, be so critical to an understanding of human nature that understanding it gives us a revelatory flash of insight into the nature of personality disorders and specifically Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). This is what I call “The Need To Feel Aliveness,” and it also explains why some people have multiple jobs, mates, and lifestyles, whereas others settle into one fixed routine and stay with it their entire lives, apparently quite happy in their stasis.

The GOP is battling over who is the most extreme, who can kill and maim the most, who can cause the most suffering and its a tie…
