“The best new podcast for Democrats. Period.“

Even as witness after witness systematically debunked every Republican defense of Trump’s crimes, the most chilling words came from the White House’s former top Russia and Ukraine expert Fiona Hill, who told the House Intelligence Committee that Republicans perpetuating Ukraine conspiracy theories to defend Trump were, wittingly or not, doing the bidding of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin. But we don’t have to take Hill’s word for it. Putin couldn’t contain his glee later in the week when he thanked God for their efforts.
Plus! Trump gets a head start on his 2020 physical (lie!), Stu and AJ discuss some ways we’re still suffering from Reaganomics, and yes, Trump really needed notes to remind himself to claim that he “No quid pro quo.”
Call to Action: AJ and Stu break down three tips to getting through Thanksgiving without ruining dinner or breaking up the family while keeping your soul intact.
Moment of Uplift: At Stuart’s alma mater, Syracuse University, racist graffiti and harassment has become endemic. That prompted about a hundred students to mount a non-violent protest pushing for the University’s chancellor to agree to 19 demands. Students have already moved the needle significantly and aren’t letting up. The eloquence and power of these young people banding together to bring about meaningful change gave Stu and AJ an inspirational example of what we can do when we stand together to demand better.
This is your country for the week of November 25, 2019.
