The Mad Mod Pod

The Mad Mod Pod - Episode 4, Part 1 (Trump caused the Iran war and he can't spin his way out of it.)

Today on the fourth episode of The Mad Mod Pod with Ken Thompson, we cover how Trump got us into another Middle Eastern war, how Iran's blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is a quagmire of Trump's own making, and how we have been depleting our munitions for a war we didn't even plan to fight.A Ken Thompson Media Production.

The Mad Mod Pod - Episode 3 (America's immigration system is broken because MAGA Republicans want it to be broken.)

Today on the third episode of The Mad Mod Pod with Ken Thompson, we cover how inevitable it was that the campaign promise of mass deportations carried out under a second Trump term would be unlawful in practice and fascist in its enforcement, along with Trump's other fascist desires like trying to nationalize and corrupt our democratic elections in order to avoid facing any accountability. We also discuss Barry Goldwater and how the Republicans from the Nixon era had a spine and put country over party, something today's Republicans (House Rep. Thomas Massie aside) have apparently no intention of doing.

The Mad Mod Pod - Episode 2 (The government shutdown and saving ignorant voters from themselves.)

Today on the second episode of The Mad Mod Pod with Ken Thompson, we cover some of what makes the issue of affordable healthcare and the ACA tax subsidies a worthy and useful fight for Democrats, all as Republicans and Russell Vought try to gut the Executive Branch during the shutdown. We also discuss why any real attempt to negotiate with today's MAGA Republicans is a fool's errand, because they no longer can be trusted to adhere to any agreement they later find to be politically problematic for them.
