“I got a word for JD Vance, you better hide behind that sofa cause we’re comin’ for you.” -Congresswoman Dina Titus

A story that needs more eyes is… the quiet happenings of Republicans working to push or open the door for Democrats to vote for RFK Jr. with a bigger plan in mind. Guess we need to get the bear story in front of those eyes too, huh? -Maddie

Something I can’t stop talking about is… women literally miscarrying and having ectopic pregnancies and not being treated despite a FEDERAL law that’s supposed to ensure treatment so that they’re not on their deathbeds. -Maddie

Something that popped across my radar was… this easy to use, easy to share guide for how to register to vote in Iowa. Registering to vote and voting is different in every state, so having something to walk you through the process is always a W. -Maddie

A TikTok I can’t stop thinking about is… this one comparing Walz versus the other ticket i.e. providing perspective. It really is wild that it’s as close as it is considering all of the heinous things Trump has done and his partner-in-crazy wackadoodle shit… oh 2024, what a timeline to be alive in -Maddie

If I were to do an olympic sport it would be… soccer, it would be soccer. Really guys?? We knowwwww this is going to be it -Maddie

A story that needs more eyes is… one that Katie Couric is actually shining a light on, which is CBS replacing Norah O’Donnell, the anchor of the CBS Evening News with two old dudes. Like did we not just see the Biden is too old sitch put into a positive direction by swapping in a younger candidate?? The news networks that are so desperate for younger viewers should take note. -Sammy

Something I can’t stop talking about is… Trump having his panties in a twist about crowd sizes. It’s giving middle school birthday party vibes. ick. -Sammy

Something that popped across my radar was… this issue area that might actually be solved by people being… petty? Basi Trump had said in Nevada he wanted to get rid of taxing tips. The GOP said kayyyyyy let’s go, and introduced a bill. Kamala then said yea, let’s do this shit. Biden also said, send it my way kiddos. And now Trump is whining saying “copy cat” instead of thinking “yay we could do something that would put more money in hardworking people’s pockets.” -Sammy

A TikTok I can’t stop thinking about is… this Kamala x Walz from the window to the walls remix that’s catchy yet educational?? So 2024. -Sammy

If I were to do an olympic sport it would be… I’m not going to say breakdancing. Hmmm who has the cutest outfits? Like what sport really brings it? The tennis players maybe? -Sammy

ON THE POD: FASHION X POLITICS

An interview with Vermont State Rep. Mary-Katherine Stone

The much requested return of Vermont State Rep. Mary-Katherine Stone on the pod is here with this eppy, which is a blast and a half. We chatted all-things political fashion, our fave spots to thrift, and so much more. In the midst of primary season and changing tides in Vermont politics, we also talked about the concept of passing the torch and building the bench. Tune in via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.

ADD TO THE DMS

Makin’ there way from DM to DM

Eating a sandwich, apparently, can be demure and mindful. Couldn’t be us, but we respect it.
This rural white gun owning man discusses why he’s all in for Kamala and keeping the government out of our doctor’s offices and bodies.
Kamala Harris has a favorite curse word. And it’s this ;)
Oh, I’m sorry, did you think we were over the breakdancing at the Olympics? Not a damn shot.
The most accurate depiction of how we were feeling in June versus feeling now would be illustrated by this.
Thot daughter or gay son? HOW ABOUT BOTH BECAUSE THEY BOTH ROCK <3
Tim Walz got caught in 4K and we kind of love it because it’s giving girl dad.
It’s petty but it’s funny… Trump has a type and this is it.
