As Trump prepares to take office and pardon the January 6th insurrectionists, filmmaker Jon Long talks about his powerful movie, Fight Like Hell, with Julie
Trust in legacy media is quickly disappearing (if it hasn’t evaporated already), and it’s because of for-profit, self-inflicted wounds, cough, Washington Post, cough. Media institutions are compromising their integrity to avoid antagonizing power (here’s looking at you, ABC News). Julie looks at the broader implications, showing how the normalization of abnormality (here’s looking at you too, Trump and MAGA) has alienated readers and viewers. What’s the next frontier? Listen to find out!
Democrats better start flipping the script on Republicans. It's time to be let voters see who they truly voted into office by drawing a stark contrast between us and them. Julie explains why bipartisanship is not the way to go and why allowing the GOP to fall on its own sword is the best strategy for Democrats to come back from the cold.
Donald Trump, the MAGA Congress, and the Trumpy Supreme Court, -- there's no one to blame for the Democrats' failure to regain win but the Democratic Party itself. Four years ago, there was an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol and the man who incited it is taking back power, along with the enablers who once denounced him. Julie explains what the Democrats need to do to dig themselves out of the hole, to rise up, and to win the battle against the MAGA machine.
