Recap and Rant: RHORI Reunion Part 2 and Reviewing Propaganda Memes

It all started so upbeat, a fun recap of the last reunion to dull the senses in a stressful time, taking a moment to enjoy the last episode of a new Real Housewives franchise. Then, opening a thread about JoEllen liking a slew of propaganda memes and being transported back to the harsh, hateful reality of what America has become, at the hands of those who divide us for profit.  Once the menfolk exit the stage, after adding to the conversation and controversy of the season, regrets and hopes are shared amongst the women. The season ends with a customary toast...only for fresh information to hit us via online posts. Between Liz's departure and the discovery of JoEllen and Alicia's online activity, the end of the season suddenly feels both welcome and needed.  "Homophobia is like racism and anti-Semitism and other forms of bigotry in that it seeks to dehumanize a large group of people, to deny their humanity, their dignity and personhood. This sets the stage for further repression and violence that spread all too easily to victimize the next minority group." - Coretta Scott King  All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

Roasting the Broligarchy: History, Corruption, Dissent, and Death in the Brokedown Palace

A summary of over 36 different current events topics that range from birthright citizenship, to Graham Platner's pile of red flags, to the origins of the foundational phrase, "separation of church and state". Along the way are details about Air Force Major Jason Watson and his protest speech from the U.S. Capitol calling for all Americans to join him in demanding that the current administration be Impeached, Convicted, and Removed. Additionally, the latest rush quota from the administration to detain 10,000 people in 5 days that was announced just before the murder of Texas father, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, while on his way to work. Yet, as chaos abounds, we read investigative reports on taxpayer money being used for transporting detainees to multiple locations, no-bid contracts for acquaintances, personal projects at the White House, sending Homeland Security staff to track down people and hand them forms, and holding the first 'Patriot Games' to showcase teenagers when the rest of the Epstein Files are still unreleased despite a court order.

Roasting the Broligarchy: Epstein Dive - The Testimony of Lesley Groff, Part 2

The final pod review of the Congressional testimony of Jeffrey Epstein's longtime Executive Assistant, Lesley Groff, maintains focus on her awareness, or lack thereof, of underage girls regularly meeting with Epstein. Whether through booking travel, corresponding via email and phone, or arranging cash payments and gifts, Congress members ask how she is certain that everyone was an adult. Why didn't she see that changing access codes to apartments was a form of coercion and control? How was being in charge of haircuts and medical appointments for so many young women and girls seen as normal? How does researching, making calls, and emailing about steps to obtain a VISA not confirm her involvement in obtaining VISAS? Why didn't any of Epstein's alarming behavior and ongoing requests raise any flags after he was known to be a registered sex offender who had been accused of abusing young girls? Despite several emails that seem to indicate otherwise, Lesley maintains ignorance throughout, a commitment that is as chilling as it is impressive.   Check your voter registration, find your polling location, or contact your representatives via USA.GOV, VOTE.GOV, and/or the "5 Calls" app.  All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

Roasting the Broligarchy: Epstein Dive - The Testimony of Lesley Groff, Part 1

Jeffrey Epstein's longtime Executive Assistant, Lesley Groff, recently testified before Congress for eight hours. This pod reviews and summarizes the questions and answers, stopping to cite any applicable emails from Jmail.world along the way. Why didn't she think calling different people for his daily massages, and paying them in cash, was odd? What did she see and hear? Why wasn't it a red flag that Epstein had a house full of young women? How was it normal to get photos of foreign women for her to pass to Epstein? What did he say to convince her to stay after his arrest, guilty plea, and sex offender status in 2008? The answers may infuriate, but they also inform.  Check your voter registration, find your polling location, or contact your representatives via USA.GOV, VOTE.GOV, and/or the "5 Calls" app.  All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

Recap: RHORI S1E12, Finale and Reunion Part 1

A legendary finale and an initial reunion installment for the Bravo ages. Seeing the women deal with so many issues on their Block Island getaway was sensory overload in the best of ways. Alicia being thrilled that Billy took initiative to do anything, JoEllen and her husband confronting Rulla and her lil' cheater about the video, and JoEllen trying to make peace with Rulla. Then, the lil' cheater's arrest at the end of the finale was the cherry on top of a season filled with conflict and strife because of his cowardice and denial. Reunion Part 1 showcased the Real Housewives of Rhode Island in all their blue hued glory. Rulla went back to her attempts to blame JoEllen for her problems and failed miserably, Liz went into scary mode more than once, Kelsey and Rosie rehashed their beef about rumors and cliques, and Alicia continued to be an absolute treasure, a real doll. In the end, only exhaustion and a sense of gratitude remained, both for these women, and for a world where they can loudly air any and all grievances.  All opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.
