We start with some personal news: Blue Gal's father passed away on January 9.
In other news, she's leaving Crooks and Liars after 18 years for a day job with health insurance—thanks to Republican healthcare f*ckery. The podcast continues twice weekly, just dropping later in the day with Driftglass handling all the prep work.
Then we dive into why Trump's regime is doubling down on violence and lies about Renee Good's murder by ICE. We explain how decades of right-wing media have convinced MAGA that a massive Liberal Conspiracy controls everything, and Trump is finally "actualizing" all those lies—from ICE brownshirts in Minneapolis to raiding reporters' homes to threatening the Insurrection Act.
But then there's Trump's broken promise on the Epstein Files.
Plus: local Republican parties are trapped between a MAGA base demanding loyalty and horrified independents whose votes they need.
