THE HOME FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICS This Week’s Discussion: We discuss that the "leader of the free world" suggested injecting disinfectants as a possible solution to a deadly global pandemic.  (Then we discuss the fact that we really had to write that sentence.)      We note some of the latest Trump moves to eliminate facts, reason, science, and oversight from the US government, with the help of his criminal organization (the GOP). Speaking of tools, GOP governors prepare to open their states, while GOP cult followers and religious zealots (ie, tools) are told to protest against public health measures, and do so, at tremendous cost to public health. Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Moscow Mitch continues to fight the Civil War, attacking as fiscally irresponsible the blue states that feed his own, even while his criminal organization diverts Cares Act money to themselves and to wealthy contributors. In sum, the GOP continues to show that thousands of dead Americans and billions of stolen relief are a price it is happy to pay for electoral victory.    Dave continues to offer his thoughts on how recent events should inform us on weighty public issues. Today, it's about freedom, loyalty, and patriotism. (And maybe a few other words that mean the opposite of what they are supposed to.)   *Also available on Spotify, iTunes, and Stitcher-Please SUBSCRIBE   THE HOME FOR PROGRESSIVE POLITICS Forward Nation Radio with Professor David Leventhal    If you love what you heard, Like Us and share on Facebook - Instagram - Twitter
