The Professional Left Podcast with Driftglass and Blue Gal

Trump takes away a talking point from Illinois Republicans?  They thought he was their friend!  And we spend the rest of the podcast talking about how many people (even the two of us, sometimes!) fantasize about moving to Costa Rica if Trump is re-elected.  More at proleftpod.com  Support the show

Please note:   Due to our country now being a fascist state, there are a few more Eff bombs in this episode than usual.  Blue Gal has some advice for Mayor Bloomberg (and asks him to send her ten grand for it, same as in town).  Driftglass considers going full purity troll for cash and prizes.  And we discuss the unhealed wounds of past Republican failures and what we must do to heal.  More at proleftpod.com  Support the show

The impeachment vote went pretty much as expected.  Mitt Romney is not in the liberal canon of saints, but he did a good.  And Nancy Pelosi did exactly right at SOTU.  More at proleftpod.com Support the show

Time to destroy the Republican Party electorally.  We share a fun liberal prayer from Florida, some political activism from California, and our rage at how Republican Senators are wiping themselves with our democracy.  More at proleftpod.com Support the show

What should we talk about this week, Driftglass?   (Thanks and congratulations to the House impeachment managers who did a superb job this week.)  More at proleftpod.com.Support the show

YAY!  The Professional Left Podcast is ten years old this week!  Join the party!  We review the overarching six news stories of the Trump Era, celebrate with your letters, and fit in a very packed news week.  More at proleftpod.com  Support the show

Good and ready to get rid of Donald Trump.  All the Iraq War pimps are back on television, and it's got DG feeling furious.  Discussion of elections, a case study from Kansas, and the only way to beat fascists is with a voting tsunami.

Coming up with a word to inspire us this year. It's not "War." Pot is legal in Illinois, and a white guy in Wisconsin decides he should run "Black History Month"?

Chuck Todd was trending this week, for all the right reasons, says Driftglass. We review just how hard 2019 was, and still, we have reason to have hopes for 2020. The dangers and promises of optimism, and how both-siderism contributes to the racist voter suppression of The Republican Party.

We note that local media is just as obsessed with Trump voters as the NY Times. How we commemorated impeachment, watched the debates, and survive the threat to the ACA. And your letters. A very happy holiday season and much love to our listeners. You mean so much to us.
