Cruise Like A Butterfly, Crash Like A Bee

Wear a seatbelt when you listen to this…


We return after a week off to bring y’all the madness. The Dr.
Seuss estate has decided to cease publishing 6 of the author’s
books that they deemed unfit for the times, & the right wing
has lost it, invoking “cancel culture” like always. We discuss
this, as well as the 8 Democratic senators who voted with the
Republicans in efforts to keep $15 federal minimum wage off the
American Rescue Plan.


The GOP has voter suppression fever (again)! They’re showing
where their priorities lie with bills in 43 states to make voting
harder, with their tactics designed to target the working class
& especially people of color, in a desperate measure to hold
onto their power. In the midst of this, we discuss the For the
People Act, which aims to expand voting rights & protect them
on a federal level. Other topics include Piers Morgan’s tantrum
over Meghan Markle, President Biden speaking against workplaces
pushing against unions, & investigation into Elaine Chao’s
corruption.


On “Amendment Time,” we complete the Prohibition saga with the
21st amendment. This amendment repealed the 18th amendment, the
only one ever to do such a thing, & made legal once again the
sale, transportation, & manufacture of alcohol in our
country.
