You always have the most interesting people on your show. Another good one today.
Also, I don't think any of the people you mentioned know what shame is. They're just heartless and cold. It's still hard to believe these things are happening.
I do hope you’re right Trish but I have my doubts.
I read in the Military News that when TFG & his GOP Nazi Party went after General Milley not one person in the military stood up for him. That kind of silence speaks volumes.
I have no reason to believe the military will honor their oaths to protect the Constitution from “enemies both foreign and domestic” anymore than the republicans giving the orders honor their oaths.
WTP don’t even have an Opposition Leader let alone an Opposition Party. All these small protests we have all over the place aren’t going to stop them.
We are in a Civil War and until we all start acknowledging that and quit pretending using a corrupt system to fight corruption will ever work our democracy has no chance💔🇺🇸😔
Cracks me up when pundits are “what happens IF he ignores courts”
Geezus stop it!
It’s not IF it’s WHEN and it’s already happening. If the courts cld stop this they would’ve. Instead they handled him w/kid gloves allowing one ludicrous appeal after another costing us millions of dollars (talk about waste$$$$) and allowing him to run out the clock avoiding ANY ACCOUNTABILITY FOR TREASON
If law was still a thing in America—we wouldn’t have a 34X convicted felon in the wh supported by an entire prty of liars cheaters alcoholics drug addicts pedophiles INSURRECTIONISTS…. you know the lowest of our species running the cntry
IF the democrats were ANY match for a russian backed GOP NaziCoup we wouldn’t be here right now
WTP need a prty of fighters NOT flip flopping choir boys afraid and/or incapable of thinking outside the “Box of Corrupted Norms” grrrrrrrrr
You are absolutely correct! We are watching our country sink to the bottom and hoping that what we are witnessing is NOT really happening. We must get off the couch and actively stand up against the attacks on democracy. You can NOT handle Trump with kit gloves!! Our members of congress can't do it so maybe it has always been the people's fight when you get right down to it!
Hi Jim, great show! Fantastic discussions and questions. I feel like this, your new medium as an independent journalist, is the best thing thats happened in these very hard times.
Thank you so much for your work. Every time I watch your show and read your writing, I feel better, smarter, saner. In my view you are a classic journalist living to find the truth. I cant tell you how much that means to me. You help me keep the faith! Thats a lot. Thank you so very much.
I look forward to your “live” Substack every day. I work , so have to watch later. I followed you on CNN and was gobsmacked when they screwed you over. But this is sooooo much better! Your guests are well informed and so enjoyable to watch/listen to. I learned so much about VOA today! Thank you for your integrity and perseverance in bringing us the accurate news of the day. You are are true journalist.
Another great show Jim, keep up the good work! I was happy to hear Rep Brendan Boyle has been mentioning Substack to older members of Congress, they really need to get with the program for the Democratic party. Also, since so many of us have deleted Twitter please tell other Congress folks to become more active on BlueSky. Thanks so much!
This format is so refreshing in that the conversations and information feel as if they are evolving from the topic into additional depth of the topics. And you are doing it seamlessly, Jim. It really seems to suit your demeanor
How do you know that Trump is not going to replace the voice of America with his own Truth Social Voice that would go out to the world and hosted by Trump directly???
Wow I didn’t think of that. It’s not outside the realm of possibility, considering the White House already puts his Truth Social posts out as statements labeled “Truth.”
I wonder if there are any plans to do a type of Alt-? to repost these important documents and historical memorabilia about our veterans. These need to be brought back by people who have access to these documents/photos.
Congress has not and is not able to do anything so how does anyone think that will help VOA.
Let Kari lake "tinker with it"?? GOOD LORD What a horrifying thought! If they use it, it will be propaganda. A strategic asset for them is what it will be.
Right now one screen shows a "preview" of what's to come with multiple patriotic emblems, fireworks, etc similar to the new white house page when it came out.
In addition the term, "was doge-d" is not funny and sad to hear. I will not use the acronym myself and there should be a different term already instead of validating their crap.
NOTHING is funny here with any of this and I am tired of hearing laughing while talking about it. C'mon man. I love substack but I fear it is changing in an uncomfortable direction.
You are right DR. it’s not funny at all. What I meant, but should have said more artfully, is that Lake needs to learn about the organization she inherited. She has been mouthing off about an agency she knows absolutely nothing about.
I do think that on this issue, calmer heads will prevail. There is enough bi-partisan support for this - and it is already making its way into the courts.
Just want to say that I’m 70 years old and I, too, have given up on “Main Stream Media”. Substack has been a godsend!
I couldn't agree more Kathie!
This show was very informative. Thank you for letting the guests actually speak and make a point that cannot be done in a sound bite.
You always have the most interesting people on your show. Another good one today.

The Military may not follow him, he may be surprised. He has screwed on the Veterans, the young military may see that as a big mistake.

Then he'll recruit the J6 insurrectionists and others like them to carry out his dirty work.
I hope you are right Trish

Is VOA able to become listener supported ?
How do you know that Trump is not going to replace the voice of America with his own Truth Social Voice that would go out to the world and hosted by Trump directly???
Wow I didn’t think of that. It’s not outside the realm of possibility, considering the White House already puts his Truth Social posts out as statements labeled “Truth.”
Hell, DEI wasn't even around when the flat was raised at Iwo Jima!!!!!! Have you no shame is right!!!
I wonder if there are any plans to do a type of Alt-? to repost these important documents and historical memorabilia about our veterans. These need to be brought back by people who have access to these documents/photos.
Jim, awesome program, keep going we love you.
All of the programs since I subscribed have been fabulous. Keep up the awesome job. I do not get my info from local or national channels anymore!
Congress has not and is not able to do anything so how does anyone think that will help VOA.
