How America Got All F**ked Up - Resurrecting Democracy In America

Democracy died when the Supreme Court turned money into speech. Now Americans are losing faith in elections, some even turning towards fascism. Although most Americans want universal healthcare, the right to unionize, and clean air…the politicians they elected are instead working for their corporate masters. If we are going to resurrect Democracy in America we are going to have to take a deep dive into its history. Thom Hartmann traces the rise of oligarchy from Citizens United all the way back to the confederate police state.

Will These Extremists Infiltrate Our Government?

Wallbuilders is the name of the pseudohistory-promoting company founded by Texas right-winger David Barton. But, it seems, one wall he doesn’t believe in is the one that is supposed to exist between Church and State in America. As disturbing as this might be, Barton now has the ear of the new minted House Speaker, MAGA Mike Johnson, and THAT is truly worrisome.
