The PoliticsGirl Podcast: Daily Summaries Delivered
by Meidas Media Network, Leigh McGowan
American Democracy is not promised to us and, with all the forces working against it, saving it will take a level of work most people aren’t ready for. The Politics Girl Podcast is here to give people a reason to care and a reason to fight. Our goal is to inspire. To instill in people a true understanding of what this country COULD be, if the right people were fighting for it, and what it WILL be if they don’t. It’s a political podcast yes, but more than that, it’s a podcast about America’s potential, where one passionate, and slightly mouthy, immigrant attempts to motivate the country to become what it promised to be but, so far, has yet to become. You’ll leave more knowledgeable, more engaged, and more sure that you, personally, can make a difference to the future of American democracy. Everyone’s got a little time for that right? We’re in a fight for our country. We sure as hell better know what we’re fighting for. xo

Pass the Torch! : A Conversation with Run for Something’s Amanda Litman
We can no longer wait to be saved. It’s time to step up and save ourselves because Democratic leadership isn’t going to do it - if anything they need to be encouraged to pass the torch, because at the end of the day voters don’t vote for policy or even party, they vote for candidates they believe in. We need to be electing those people to local and state office now, so we have them in the wings for federal office later. Run For Something’s Amanda Litman reminds us not to give up hope. That what we’re dealing with is bad, and fighting back will be hard, but it’s not impossible and, if we do it right, we can change everything.

We’re Giving These Guys Money?! : A Conversation about the Presidential Slush Fund with Liz Oyer
Liz Oyer talks to us about the president’s outrageous corruption and the complete distain he and his allies have for the American people and the rule of law. This billion dollar slush fund of taxpayer money his own personal lawyer has created for him along with the addition of total immunity from the IRS to ever hold him, his businesses, or his family accountable for tax evasion in perpetuity, has to have even president’s most ardent supporters questioning what’s going on.

Can We Vote Our Way Out of This? : A Conversation with Authoritarian Expert Ruth Ben-Ghiat
Ruth Ben Ghiat reminds us that unless we want America to become a white, christian ethno-state, we need to be engaging now. Now is the best time as the administration sets everything on fire and people start to feel the pain. According to Ruth, we’re actually ahead of the curve in terms of resistance, so we need ramp it up, if anything overcompensate with positive action. Autocrats want us to feel helpless and hopeless, but we’re not. Getting out of this mess is going to be an uphill battle, but it’s not a lost cause. In fact, if we play our cards right, we might even be able to build something way better than we had before.

I Don’t Understand What America is Doing! - A Conversation with Joanna Johnson
Why are we at war? Why are they trying to trick us into thinking the economy is good as if we don’t pay our own bills? Why do they keep taking the White House keep taking on unnecessary renovations in DC rather than paying for things his citizens need like cancer research and food stamps? Are we seriously taking a full detour back to segregation and simping for billionaires? Finally, why is Obama meeting with Mark Carney?

The Return of Jim Crow: A Conversation with the ACLU’s Sophia Lin Lakin
Don’t think for a moment that the dismantling of the 1965 Voting Rights Act stops with disenfranchising Black voters. Once Republicans are finished suppressing Black votes, women are next, gay Americans will follow, and then they’ll come for the working poor. Nobody is safe once if the powers that be are allowed to dismantle democracy. Dismantling the voting rights act isn’t a Black issue. It’s a EVERYBODY issue and everybody needs to ACT LIKE IT.

The Boy Wants A Ballroom! A Conversation with Joanna Johnson
We don’t know if the shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner was staged. What we do know, is that everyone involved acted incredibly strangely before, during, and after, and within an hour of the event there was a calculated onslaught of propaganda from the White House press room to the entirety of the right wing internet around the necessity of Trump getting his ballroom. And if you don’t think that’s weird…you’re not paying attention. As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

Men Behaving Badly : A conversation with Arielle Fodor
Between the on line Rape Academy, where men taught other men, and shared videos, of how to drug and rape your wife, to the constant drip drip drip of the Epstein files where everyone involved (except the woman) is walking free, to the recent fall from grace of California gubernatorial candidate, and Democratic front runner, Eric Swalwell, every day feels like a fresh new attack on women - how we’re perceived, what we’re good for, what laws we get, and how powerful men abuse us daily and get away with it.
