Ep. 162: What The F***! Supreme Court Grants Fascism A Win

February 29, 2024 17:32 - 23 minutes - 21.3 MB

Supreme Court screws the pooch while Dems continue to whine as our country descends further into Authoritarianism. I take everyone to task from Obama to Biden, Kagan to Jackson, Pelosi to Cheney, no one is immune today.

Ep.161: War Games

February 12, 2024 16:25 - 29 minutes - 26.7 MB

STEP 1: Invoke The 25th Ep.160 02/09/2024

February 09, 2024 16:51 - 35 minutes - 32.5 MB

If this was Trump you'd be calling for his removal. Memory issues are bad and only going to get worse.

Ep. 159: The Border

February 08, 2024 15:15 - 26 minutes - 24.2 MB

The GOP blew up their own bill in the House and Senate. Biden is catering to the Right's whims. Exploitation of human beings is normal in our system.

Ep.158: We Are All So Screwed

February 07, 2024 16:43 - 30 minutes - 28.3 MB

Biden has a bad moment during a press conference. GOP faceplants twice in one day. YouTube: https://youtu.be/f4PJ_kqkW3M

Ep.157: I'm Not Going To Plug For Biden

February 06, 2024 19:31 - 27 minutes - 25 MB

It's easy for us to sit back and tell Muslim-Americans that things would be 1000 times worse under Trump and they should really vote for Biden. We have no skin in the game. It isn't our family and friends being killed overseas. So while I will vote for Biden, I'm certainly not going to pour energy into convincing others that they should too.

Ep.156: Recovery From Biden

January 12, 2024 15:01 - 40 minutes - 37.5 MB

President Biden attacked Ansar Allah in Yemen without Congressional Approval. He says he is the champion for Democracy against Trump, but his actions suggest it isn't as black and white as he would have you believe. post.news: @Politics_From Threads: @kyleframe98 Tribel: @Recovery_From [email protected] https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100042064646185 https://spoutible.com/Recovery_From_Politics Fighting F...

December 13, 2023 17:33 - 49 minutes - 46.2 MB

I was willing to give his blind spot on Gazan civilians a pass, but now he's gone overboard.

Ep.154: You're Dismissed!

December 11, 2023 16:19 - 1 hour - 58.5 MB

My Seahawks lost... and are lost. Sorry for so much football, but I noticed something with Patrick Mahomes getting some treatment Tom Brady never did for doing the same thing... Wonder what the difference could be? Also, Dems keep dismissing concerns of voters. If Joe Biden wants people's votes, he's going to have to earn them. He has to embrace some change.

Ep.153: Nice Rights You Have There...

November 21, 2023 16:52 - 36 minutes - 33.4 MB

I discuss the last days of the Voting Rights Act, House Democrats plan to run on Social Security, Nicki Haley's war with TikTok, and the Right's ongoing attacks against Vice President Kamala Harris.

Ep.152 2016 Part TWO: Electric Boogaloo

November 20, 2023 16:23 - 54 minutes - 49.8 MB

Is TikTok to blame for youth hating Biden? Are these 3rd Party candidates hurting Biden? Is it really Ageism that's hurting Biden? I try and explain what's being missed by the Democratic Establishment.

Ep.151

October 29, 2023 05:01 - 1 hour - 68 MB

Ep. 151 Maine Shooting. Dean Phillips wants to help Biden by running against him. Finally, we have segments on the Left and Right who believe generational blame generational killing.

Side Note: Episode 1

October 25, 2023 13:25 - 1 hour - 67.3 MB

New Side Note format. Basically, just me going off without any type of script or notes about whatever is on my mind. In the future I'll be publishing weekly as the daily idea I've had and been trying to implement for the better part of two years simply isn't practical for my circumstances. Finally, here are the links to the articles I specifically talk about. Apologies if you get pay-walled. Elie Mystal's "Biden's Israel-Palestine Policy Could Cost Him The Election" : https://w...

Ep.148: The Point

October 16, 2023 16:47 - 53 minutes - 48.8 MB

Menendez remains defiant. Biden remains committed. And no one seems to get why what is happening in Gaza is happening. I try to explain the how's and why's as best I can.

Ep.147: Empathy

October 09, 2023 15:48 - 38 minutes - 35.5 MB

Hamas strikes Israel. Netanyahu declares war on Palestine. Tommy Tuberville is still an idiot.

October 04, 2023 13:28 - 23 minutes - 21.3 MB

2008, 2016, 2024. All the same mistakes all over again. Are we headed for a Trump victory and the end of Democracy?

Ep.144 We're Not The Roman Empire (Yet), We're The Library of Alexandria

September 26, 2023 13:50 - 23 minutes - 21.8 MB

Lots of talk about the Roman Empire on social media lead to a lot of opinion pieces about how the Roman Empire is a perfect metaphor for the United States. I disagree. I think the better analogy is the Great Library of Alexandria.

Ep. 143 09-25-2023

September 25, 2023 12:57 - 19 minutes - 18.2 MB

Sen Bob Menendez, Democrat representing New Jersey was caught with gold bars and cash hidden through out his home from Egypt? I explain why Democrats are screwed and Chuck Schumer really should retire. Also, John Fetterman and the Senate Dress Code.

Ep.142 09-21-2023

September 21, 2023 12:35 - 21 minutes - 20.1 MB

More women in the police won't fix what's wrong with the police. Kevin can't pass a budget with only Republicans. The Generals need to take a stand. India and Canada are having a moment.

Ep.141 09-20-2023

September 20, 2023 12:56 - 30 minutes - 28 MB

Speaker McCarthy has no leadership style other than to abdicate and punt to someone, anyone else. Biden and Jinping both skip UN Climate Summit. Dems still fumbling on UAW Strike.

Ep. 140 09-19-2023

September 19, 2023 12:33 - 27 minutes - 25.6 MB

Trump is going to skip the next GOP debate and instead make a speech to the United Auto Workers. He's selling his faux-populism to anyone who will buy. I explain why this is bad news for the country, but especially for the Democratic Party in the upcoming Presidential election.

Ep.139: 09-18-2023

September 18, 2023 13:17 - 21 minutes - 19.5 MB

Does the Republican Party deserve blame for the Child Tax Credit expiring and not being renewed?

Ep.138: What Are They Afraid Of?

September 01, 2023 14:49 - 38 minutes - 35.7 MB

The Radical Left wants to take away your guns, your hamburgers, your family, your home. The Radical Left wants to control how you think, where you think. The Radical Left is going to take away your rights. Except, that never happens. The Left never takes anything away. In the entire history of the United States, the only time something was taken away, was the Civil War taking away Conservatives Right to own another human being. So why does the Right constantly think we're coming for them? ...

Ep.137: The Gerontocracy Is Expanding To Meet The Needs Of The Expanding Gerontocracy

August 31, 2023 13:33 - 49 minutes - 45.9 MB

Yea, this one is going to get me into trouble. We have an age problem in the Senate and one in the Presidency. What can we do about that? Is there anything to be done? Would any rule we put in place just end up oppressing or silencing someone? Mitch McConnell had another moment of freezing during questions from the Press. Dianne Feinstein has been having her own senior moments amid accusations of elder abuse. post.news: @Politics_From Threads: @kyleframe98 Tribel: @Recovery_From Recove...

Ep.136: The Stupidest Senator

August 30, 2023 13:13 - 34 minutes - 32.3 MB

Tommy Tuberville likes to be called "coach" because he coached football for 40 years. He also thinks he isn't racist because he coached football and when he told young black men what to do, they always did it. That means he can't be racist, right? He also thinks the Pentagon is breaking the law AND doing things that are Unconsitutional at the same time, but won't bring a law suit to get the Supreme Court involved to settle that dispute. Could it be because his staff and own Party leadership...

Ep.135: The Great State of Alabama

August 29, 2023 13:19 - 46 minutes - 42.8 MB

What's it like moving from a Blue State to a Red State when you're of the Left? Culture shock? Strange Congressman named after a chipmunk? The heat, the humidity, the seriousness of the men. post.news: @Politics_From Threads: @kyleframe98 Tribel: @Recovery_From [email protected] https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100042064646185 https://spoutible.com/Recovery_From_Politics Don't forget to Like, Subscribe, a...

Ep.134: What Will It Take?

August 28, 2023 13:42 - 27 minutes - 25.8 MB

I'm in Alabama now. I REALLY wanted to talk about that instead of white supremacy and gun control, but this guy in Jacksonville ruined my plans. What will it take to end this? Even simple gun control legislation seems impossible. What will it take to move the needle even a little bit? History gives us one indication. post.news: @Politics_From Threads: @kyleframe98 Tribel: @Recovery_From [email protected] https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://...

Ep.133: I F***ing Told You So

May 23, 2023 16:09 - 38 minutes - 35.9 MB

Debt Ceiling shenanigans? POTUS vs SCOTUS? 14th Amendment? Trillion Dollar Coin? Who cares? All that matters, and all I'm clinging to is that I was right.

Ep.132: Why Would CNN Do This?

May 11, 2023 16:25 - 16 minutes - 15.3 MB

Capitalism. Anytime something goes wrong, it's probably American Late Stage Capitalism. post.news: @Politics_From Twitter: @Politics_From Tribel: @Recovery_From [email protected] https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100042064646185 https://spoutible.com/Recovery_From_Politics

Ep.131: The Pelosi Doctrine

May 10, 2023 18:15 - 1 hour - 64.2 MB

The Pelosi Doctrine, aka the How To Win As A Democrat. My perception of the Democratic Party in my lifetime and why it is uniquely set up to fail against the current Authoritarian movement on the Right. post.news: @Politics_From Twitter: @Politics_From Tribel: @Recovery_From [email protected] https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100042064646185 https://spoutible.com/Recovery_From_Politics Don't forget to Like...

Ep.130: American Warzone

May 09, 2023 17:01 - 30 minutes - 28 MB

Sig Sauer has released the MCX Spear. Twice as powerful as the AR-15, a one thousand yard range, and designed to tear through kevlar. Who the hell is this weapon for? White Supremacists.

Ep.129: Embracing The Politics

May 08, 2023 16:26 - 30 minutes - 28 MB

It's time to embrace the reality of our situation. The Right Supremacy has won. This is their country now. We're just terrified to live in it.

The Biden-Harris Administration (BONUS)

April 20, 2023 20:56 - 8 minutes - 7.41 MB

WH Press Secretary kept going out of her way to emphasize the Biden-Harris Administration. Not the Biden Administration. Not Joe. Not President Biden. The Biden-Arris Administration. Every alarm bell in my head was going off. He's not running. Or he is about to kick Harris off the ticket and is trying to pump her up before dumping her back to California.

Ep.128: Self Own, Or, Setting A Trap?

April 10, 2023 16:27 - 43 minutes - 40.3 MB

Freon is in the air! I dive into an overconfidence trap Dems are in danger of falling into regarding the Tennessee 3.

Ep.127: F*** You, Fascists!

April 07, 2023 18:20 - 21 minutes - 20.3 MB

EXPLICIT WARNING: Since I'm opening with a protest chant from Thursday, I cannot avoid the explicit content warning. Enjoy! Republicans from Dog Catcher to Senate Leader are breaking rules, norms, and traditions to punish and consolidate power.

Ep.125: INDICATED

Ep.124: Not Surprised

March 28, 2023 19:40 - 38 minutes - 35.2 MB

When the shooter was announced as Trans I knew it was a gift to the Right, who will use this one incident to "bothsidesism" to equate the thousands of mass shootings committed by straight white men to this one time a Transgender person did it. I also thought "Shocked it didn't happen sooner". post.news: @Politics_From Twitter: @Politics_From Tribel: @Recovery_From [email protected] https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://www.facebook.com/profile....

Ep.122: Shou Trial

March 24, 2023 14:25 - 23 minutes - 21.9 MB

Yesterday's hearings on TikTok amounted to nothing more than an opportunity for Congress to make fools of themselves. The Democrats were only marginally better than their Republican counterparts by attacking a company with no evidence and openly telling the CEO Shou Chew that his answers did not matter to them. post.news: @Politics_From Twitter: @Politics_From Tribel: @Recovery_From [email protected] https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kyle-william-frame https://www.fa...

February 16, 2023 22:46 - 22 minutes - 20.5 MB

Ep.115: China Pt1

February 13, 2023 19:38 - 22 minutes - 20.9 MB

Prior to World War 1, some bright thinkers of the day thought war was a necessary and good thing for humankind. It turned boys into men. It removed the lethargic, tired masses from the surplus population. They defined whole groups of men by the wars they fought. President Biden has a problem. His lethargic, tired masses are planning coups and shooting grocery stores. The blueprint for what to do is there. Not in our distant past. Just 2003. post.news: @Politics_From Twitter: @Politics_From...
