Weekly Skews - 2/13/24 – Breaking: Joe Biden Old

Tonight, after a Trump Trial Update and a generous point-and-laugh session aimed at Kristi Noem, we dive into the right wing fervor surrounding the left wing fervor surrounding college campuses across this country. Plus some other fun stuff; join us. Support the Show.

Skewers, this week we talk about escalating hostilities in one of the American Right’s most passionate and longest running conflicts: The War on the Poor (with some Trump stuff and miscellaneous dumbassery along the way). Join us.Support the Show.

Skewers, tonight we welcome friend of the show and labor activist John Russell (of More Perfect Union) to discuss the biggest win for Labor in the South in recent memory: the decision by workers at a massive Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga to join the UAW. We’ll talk about what it means, both right now and for the future of working people below the Mason-Dixon Line.Support the Show.

Skewers, tonight we dive into the big Trump Hush Money trial which kicked off in NY just yesterday, and y’all will never believe this but so much stupid stuff has already happened. Also: SCOTUS, the right to protest, and WWIII (among many other subjects). Join us. Support the Show.

Tonight we talk about the new abortion ban just approved by Arizona’s Supreme Court…and by “new” we mean “from the Civil War Era”. The draconian law allows no exceptions for rape or incest and is, generally speaking, really bad and dumb. Also: how the media is helping Trump appear to be more moderate than he is, and much much more. Join us. Support the Show.

On tonight’s episode we discuss, among many other hilariously stupid things, the right’s wholly manufactured panic about a supposed War on Easter being launched by the Biden Administration. Why? Well, a couple of different years-old policies pre-dating and having less than nothing to do with the Biden Administration, of course. Join us. Support the Show.

Description: On tonight's show we talk the recent chaos in the House with special guest, Congressman Eric Swalwell (D-CA)! Also, how Joe Biden used the power of diversity and immigration to destroy that bridge in Baltimore (according to idiots). Join us.Support the Show.

Skewers, tonight we discuss the GOP primary happening in Ohio and the dumbness unfolding therein, with some experts saying that Ohio has become “the Hindenburg of democracy”. So that’s reassuring. Also, Producer Matt’s governor Kristi Noem is doing Texas teeth ads and Paul Manafort is back in the game baby. Join us.Support the Show.

Skewers tonight we talk about the designs of a brand spankin’ new group of far right Christian lunatic men, the many lies of former special counsel Robert Hur, the potential impact of RFK Jr, and finally perhaps the most unhinged State of the Union response in living memory, from Alabama Senator Katie Britt. Join us. Support the Show.

Skewers this week we are thrilled to welcome Tom Schaller and Paul Waldman, the authors of the much debated new book about the threat to democracy percolating in our homeland: “White Rural Rage”! Gonna be a good un!Support the Show.
