In my latest conversation with Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) on the MeidasTouch Network, we got into everything—from the economic gut punches hitting working-class families under Trump’s failed policies, to the MAGA movement’s brazen betrayal of veterans, and even the GOP’s shady attempt to ram through a crypto bill with what appeared to be a carveout for Trump’s own corrupt dealings.
As Senator Gallego pointed out, Trump voters—especially Latino men—are waking up. They were sold lies about jobs, family, and opportunity. Now they’re watching as Trump floats reopening Alcatraz and praises a dystopia where immigrants have no due process and no trials. Latino support for Trump is cratering, and Gallego made clear why: They’re the first to be fired, last to be hired—and they feel the economic pain first.
When I asked about the economy, Senator Gallego went deeper than Wall Street spin. He laid it out plainly: these aren’t investors watching stock tickers. They’re truckers, factory workers, waiters. And they know exactly when the bottom is falling out. GDP is shrinking, wages are stagnant, and costs are climbing. The “Art of the Deal” can’t pay the rent.
But it gets worse. Trump’s administration isn’t just economically incompetent—it’s outright hostile to the people who’ve served this country. Senator Gallego, a Marine Corps veteran himself, was crystal clear: Trump’s team is the most anti-veteran administration in history. From gutting the VA with unexplained workforce cuts to floating the absurd idea of renaming Veterans Day to “World War II Day,” Gallego didn’t mince words—“how stupid are you to even think about that?”
And then came the crypto grift. Gallego exposed how Republicans tried to force through legislation with exemptions that would’ve let Trump and others self-deal on the sly—profiting off unregulated stablecoins while pretending to protect investors. “You can’t try to f*ck us and say, ‘deal with it,’” Gallego said. That’s the raw truth.
We closed by talking about housing, energy, and the future. Senator Gallego is focused on the real stuff: affordable homes, expanding clean energy, including nuclear, and making government work for people again, not billionaires and meme-coin scammers.
I hope you enjoy this interview. To hear more conversations like this, remember to add the MeidasTouch Podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and if you’ve done that already, consider leaving a 5-star review. Thank you for spreading these pro-democracy messages and supporting independent media.
I'm a US Puerto Rican American My Dad fought for this country so
my two sons I would never vote for somebody like Donald Trump ever and my kids too they would not vote for him or anybody like him
If you can make sure they teach their friends because this is the problem Trump is trying to make our history go away, and there are many like you or your dad that have served this country and they deserve the highest level of respect, but they're not getting it. And the big part of it is these goons are trying to erase history of anybody that wasn't European white having any kind of heroic qualities or anything like that it's insane. they even scrub the Tuskegee airmen website in Arlington. I believe trying to cover up things that is just blatantly wrong. I don't care what nationality anybody is. We shouldn't treat anybody like that. This country was made great because we work together as a team regardless of our politics.
Completely agree! We have Memorial Day in one week, July 4th in a little over a month, and we need to talk about all the connections we have. I have a grandfather who fought in WWI, my dad and uncles in WWII, and many cousins who are veterans of Afghanistan and many other places - all Mexican Americans. I plan to make a lot of statements about that. 🇺🇸🙏🏻❤️🩹
Senator Gallego is a patriot. Latinx and veterans should never vote for a racist traitor. I can't wait until he and Schiff impeach the orange menace again: https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/adam-schiff-poem-democracy
I cannot understand how he could have voted to confirm any of Trump's nominees for any reason, especially claiming someone else could be worse!
I agree!! I was going to ask if they asked him why he voted for an election denier for Amb to China.
Inexplicable! The odious David Perdue is an antisemitic election denier and got 16 Senate Dems voting to confirm him! All Dems in Congress need to unite in voting NO to everything on the Trump agenda. All we can do now is join together in solidarity to oppose everything he and the MAGAs want!
It is easy to stand up for RIGHT and DEMOCRACY. Gallego and Kelly, also from Arizona, have not. If you want to be a MAGA DEMOCRAT, quit asking Progressive Democrats for $200 to fight Trump. Neither need money. They need a backbone!
Senator Gallego voted to confirm an election denying Trump nominee last week. It's really frustrating me that even independent meadia like Meidas isn't holding them accountable for doing one thing while saying another.
I honor your opinion and your right to have it, but I can barely imagine the conflicts, un-seen--to us who may not be Latinos--whispers, pressures, and judgments Senator Gallego has to deal with. Walking a tightrope over Niagara Falls would surely be easier.
I'm asking this in good faith, not trying to create conflict in this good community: Why do you believe the Latino community was pushing the Senator to vote for Georgia election denying David Perdue as Ambassdor to China? Why does that have to do with his constituents or the latino community?
It's always going to be an out for him if we have no standards at all.
Modifying my question I asked elswhere, and I'm not trying to be confrontational. Good faith discussion/disagreement is important in a community like Meidas!
Why do you believe the constituents was pushing the Senator to vote for Georgia election denying David Perdue as Ambassdor to China? You're implying he shouldn't have expended political capital opposing Perdue. Why would his consitutents get pissed about that? What am I missing on that front?
I can’t wait either, but what do we get? VANCE! I mean, I’m really scared
We have to continue to dismantle the pillars that are holding up the entire regime.
We need a plan, they put their in writing, we need a good legal plan
Gallego voted for Douglas Collins - head of Veterans Affairs. It is Collins who is doing the damage - not Trump. Collins could stand up for Veterans or RESIGN and work FOR Veterans, but he is a Trump sycophant. Just remember when you are assigning Hero Status be certain that your hero actually is one!
Oh, believe me before the election I got in a heated argument with a Chinese Latino Nurse that I wasn't trying to argue with her another thing she overheard my conversation about Trump on the phone and started yelling. Apparently, the Latinos thought Trump was for them. I said, I don't think you understand he wants to deport all of you. They didn't believe me. She seemed like a nice person. I was kind of surprised she was Latino because she looked more Chinese, but she was from Puerto Rico. All of them got used. They had no idea what a monster this guy was. I listen to a bunch of Latino say that oh he's the Messiah and all this Craziness And I just shook my head and threw my arms up. There's only so much you can say and try to do, but if people don't wanna learn the truth, I guess I'm not the guy to convince him otherwise I just try to put the raw facts out there.
Trump voters voter for all of this. Every single assault on Americans and America and all peoples on earth. Trump voters voted for all of this misery.
Yup, I don't know how these people can call themselves Christian. They are just packed full of hatred and want to do harm to everything. They think it's funny. Somebody's gonna get hurt soon and it's gonna be real bad and everybody's gonna say something stupid like well who would've known well I don't know maybe like the entire country would've known
And unbelievably a lot of them still think Trump is the best thing America has ever had. It just goes to show the extent of how many people are suffering mental health issues. Sad but true what other reason can there be
I have thought this for a long time. Trump’s reelection definitely signals that we are not well educated on mental health disorders in the US. Narcissistic Grandiose Personality Disorder is a real diagnosis! He needs treatment, not the presidency. However, my understanding is that people just can’t get over or well from this disorder. There’s a lot of it these days.
Trump cult mirrors Jim Jones Guyana cult—committed mass suicide by drinking Kool-aid—because demented cult leader—Jim Jones—told them to—suicide of families, parents in cult giving poison koolaid to their kids, babies.
I am not American i am a Scot still living in Scotland so I had no preference for either party as I didn't know to much about US politics. But, I have learned a lot by watching what is happening and could not believe that people fell for Trumps Lies when it was obvious for even us way over here. We laugh everytime Trump opens his mouth because what he says is so comical you gotta be a wee bit thick to not see through the guy. Even his wee press secretary is way of her trolley she's just a kid stamping her feet. Come on America you are better than this. The shit is already hitting your fan soon the fan will break and the shits gonna be all over the people

There was a HUGE misinformation campaign going out on the Spanish speaking airwaves. Dems missed that market.... I don't understand how the DNC cannot get their minds wrapped around the messaging and delivery ...aside from not having memorable slogans that encapsulate what were about... and aside from being able to decide as a party what were about. We got shredded on Gaza, and now look at the place...
That's cause the DNC doesn't do anything. It's a waste of time.
How could any Veteran support a draft dodger who considers them "losers" and "suckers"?
Amen. Or someone who makes fun of a disabled person. That would have been it for me. Finished.
He needs to go on Fox and say these things.
Unfortunately, we're probably going to pay for decades of the damage that Trump is doing as soon as the supply chain gets low even if they fixed it immediately it's gonna take at least 6 to 10 months to come back and that's even if they do it right and by then people's gonna be so broke and so many people out of work I look for this whole administration to end up in a catastrophe
It’s not coming back.

TRUMPS TARIFFS GREAT DEPRESION
Senator Gallego, is a patriot who served our country. Just like the rest of our veterans who served our country it's so that we all can enjoy our freedom to worship! women's reproductive freedoms, our civil rights!! our civil liberties immigrant freedoms. So my Senator Ruben Gallego who has done an amazing job of keeping my state of Arizona first and safe!!! he deserves so much better and our respect. All of our veterans deserves so much better and our respect every single day. We are all one nation under God not under Trump.
Lower class white men and women in these jobs especially in red states also. They are just fed so much propaganda amongst other things it’s basically a list cause.
Central California also has a huge red base. Driving though these areas is crazy. all you hear on the airwaves is Christian, angry Christian, and right wing propaganda. The airwaves are owned by far right interests and they are all pushing out the same poison 24/7.
Can you guys do more coverage on why Senators like Gallego are voting to confirm Trump nominees? I find it very troubling and it makes me feel like we're being grifted.
He and Booker and others are saying all this and then voting in collaboration with MAGA Fascists. It's really really upsetting.
I agree. I've made up my mind on a few already, but having this addressed would help. I don't want to assume grifting & throw someone prematurely under the bus, but one does have to question actions that don't align with their message.
More honest straight forward truth, thank you! Have you seen REINS they may try to push w/ the big beautiful pile of shit package? Need to get people on their reps about this.
A bit off topic. How can Trump and Noem take an oath and not be held responsible for upholding it. They both swore allegiance to the Constitution and now they are back pedaling on due process rights. Isn’t that lying under oath….. anyone?
Yes. Lying under oath is a crime--and a sin!
Thank you. I start to think I’m crazy!!!!!!
Senator Gallego has some explaining to do to his constituents re March 21-23 fundraiser ($5k ‘suggested contribution’) featuring Marc Andreessen
I live in Arizona. We are blessed that he won his election and not the Crazy Maga candidate.
But why can't he be a Democrat? Why didn't he run as a Republican?
A Case for a Gold Standard Democrats Need to Step Up
The US is in the biggest credit/debt bubble($35T debt and in risk to be $40T+) in global history and at the top of a credit cycle(equity market highs) the Orange Cheeto has decided to inflict the world with a tariff war Shades of the market crash in 1929 coupled with the Smoot Hawley tariffs which led the country into a long term depression bailed out by the way by WWII spending not as Keynesian economists argue that it was JM Keynes
Inflation is not going down and consumers are suffering And the dollar is tanking(dropping below 100 for the first time in 4y and moving into low 10y territory) and foreign investors are nervous about the chaotic activity in government and losing confidence in investing in the US as a country This means that foreign as well as domestic investors are slowly moving away from buying bonds(in order to attract investors in bonds the bond yield has to increase to attract investors to buy our bonds since they taking on risk)
This now sets the stage for a classic debt trap The Fed cannot lower interest rates to deal with inflation….its typical tool to lower the inflation rate….and if the interest rates stay or go higher the government cannot afford the interest rate on the debt particularly if investors are reducing their purchase of bonds
Reintroduction of a gold standard will fix this debt trap that the country faces The reason that gold is going up to higher and higher is because the cost of credit/debt is going higher and the purchasing power of the dollar is going down hence inflation staying the same or going up
Democrats need to make the radical change and work toward re-establishing a gold standard that Nixon took the economy off in 1971 creating 50y period of fiat money, quantitative easing, and excessive government spending without scrutiny And they would find bipartisan support if they campaigned on the issue
It's not some DOGE boy deciding the % for cuts. DOGE is a front. Heritage/Project 2025 is setting/moving the goalposts for this. My guess is that they have a timeline based around the 2026 election cycle and they will make as many incremental cuts as needed to strip & sell the place by then.
It was the CUBANS who left Cuba because they didn't want to hand over their excessive wealth to Castro that voted for Trump. When you lump everyone that speaks Spanish into one pigeon hole you misrepresent entire groups of people. "Latino" should not be used. Neither should "hispanic" because the first wave of Cubans and the second wave (Castro actually DID open Insane Asylums and jails and put them on boats and sent them to the USA.....quite different groups. (also possibly where tRump keeps mentioning Asylums)... or maybe he thinks people SEEKING Asylum should be IN them.
my senator and i love him
love who
Mrs. Garza approves!!
He talked about housing, one of the things I like to see about affordable housing is having a choice of tiny homes with recycled material and shipping containers. I personally wouldn't need a 1,000 sq. Ft. House. It would save on the destruction of the environment and it's wildlife. But with everything going up, you might not be able to afford that either.
The reason things aren't done differently in most things is because the most profits are made with the markets controlled as they are. But we can't stop talking about & doing other things that can be done, & things that are done in other countries. I remember how exciting alternative energy was in the 70s & people making money kept saying it couldn't be done for so long that people believed it & it wasn't developed. It seems it only will be now once the profits are locked down. But, we can't quit talking about what CAN be done. We can't let them take away our language, our ideas, our spirit, & what we know to be true. We can't believe it can't be done! It can.
Your right. We can't stop talking and thinking that it can't be done.
I like your idea. Also using straw bale or bamboo as building materials rather than wood would save a lot also including on the environment. There are many innovative ways of using recycled materials in building. Too many people want the same boring, cracker box look (little houses made of ticky tacky). & Don't use their creativity.
Thank you. Your absolutely right about what you said. I think people want new and different. There is so much we could do, like you said, with creating and thinking outside the box. Definitely help the planet as a whole.
Gallego voted for TEN of Trump’s cabinet nominees. You cannot escape that fact but you ignore it! Like he is some kind of hero! What was so pro democracy about those votes???? Why did he sell us Democrats out for the most incompetent, stupid, dangerous cabinet heads in the history of our country??? What was he afraid of? Who was he beholden to? How can he be trusted?
There is an article in The Atlantic that will scare you beyond imagining. It is titled “The Missing Branch” and gives a very comprehensive assessment of the problems with our current government impotence in the Congress. I have been feeling hopeless-now I am inconsolable. The article also covers the historical background of what is happening now and why. It explains why our current Congress is impotent.
They may be impotent for this moment in history, but we are not. NOW is the time to lay the groundwork to take back Congress for integrity and democracy. Here in Ohio we have suffered the travesty of VP J.D. Vance kowtowing to Trump, BUT his former Senate seat is open for the Special Election coming this November. I urge every Ohioan to vote to elect Sherrod Brown (D-OH) to the U.S. Senate. Why? Novice Senator Bernie Moreno (R-OH) doesn't give a fart in a windstorm about working class constituents like me.
Just read it…very sobering to say the least. Congressional dysfunction has been developing for decades. It will take something critical to its existence to shake its members out of their self imposed sleepwalking.
Ruben's got some 'plaining to do about his actions and votes earlier this year. How he could vote to confirm ANY of these nominees is a mystery to me. I mean, I understand he's a freshman Senator who wants to work with people for real governance but you CAN'T DEAL WITH MAGATS. THEY ARE NAZIS.
Still, he's better than McSally. I just don't want him to be another Sinema. C'mon, Ruben, stand strong and stand tall for all of us! We'll stand with you.
Both of my parents served in WWII in the Navy--my 20-year-old widowed mom (her husband was shot down in June of '44) was the only Mexican Latina in her WAVES class. Dad was a corpsman when they met, and they both took care of wounded sailors and Marines from the Pacific theater at Corona Naval Hospital through 1946.
I know she'd approve of the sentiment (if not my language): Fuck Nazis to hell and back. Happy Mother's Day, Mom.

Appreciated this information. On the nuclear energy I believe he is right and have concerns about our ability to do this. I know a gentleman who is a nuclear engineer. From what he says we need more of them. Trump’s crazy cutting of science will likely decrease rather than increase the number we have.
Given Trump's history of waving our secret defense documents under Lavrov's nose in the Oval Office, I suspect that Trump is Putin's puppet. It is vital for our democracy that we do everything we can to take back both houses of Congress for sanity, integrity, and accountability. That means turning out to vote for Democrats across the country. The GOP is beyond redemption at this point, for they have degenerated into a spineless Trump cult.
Thank you for your show love your program thank you
More of this honesty from elected representatives.. Trump and the Republicons openly display their bigotry, the “ Junk Drawer” cabinet is dangerously incompetence ! 3rd Worlding The United States .
Senator Gallego is definitely country over party and we need more like him and less like Lindsey Graham, MTG and the sycophants.

My dad was WW11 bozooka airman serving south of Berlin in 1944. He received Silver Star and 2 Bronze medals. My brother and I served in the Vietnam 1968-1970. He had 9 brothers and 5 served in the military at the same time. We are TRUE PATRIOTS WE ARE MEXICAN AMERICAN. Proud AMERICANS.......
I made calls for, sent texts, and a donation for Gallego’s campaign. He led and supported the Laken Riley Act. Pissed me off. Why should we continue to support him? (Yes, he’s better than Kari Lake, but …!)
I subscribe to MTN because they are truth tellers. Another reason is because all 3 brothers are immensely CUTE!
I do not understand MSNBC and you interviewing Gallego. He voted AYE for 10 of Trump's nominees including Douglas Collins, head of Veterans Affairs. Gallego likes to talk tough on television and he sure likes to send donation letters saying he will "fight Trump", but when it was a vote that he thought no one but Trump would check - he voted TRUMP!!!
Alas, this old coot still remembers those nuclear power plants at Chernobyl and Three Mile Island. Look them up, younguns.
Same. It would take a lot to convince me this is a good direction. Regulation & safety aren't exactly priority now, either.

Will be interesting to see how Trump's mismanagement affects U.S. military enlistment and retention as well as our relationships with NORAD and NATO. Putin and Xi must be licking their chops.
All Republicans in Congress would be so welcomed back to help balance the government with good conservative ideas...and not keep putting us off balance by supporting all things MAGA. This is not rocket science...but it does take COURAGE.
Alas, I fear that most career Republicans have devolved into spineless bootlickers.
Non violently fight back
In a WaPo interview Gallego said he hates Pete Buttigieg. I'm still waiting to hear why.
Due process should be a concern of everyone. The executive office is threatening everyone on usa soil. This is unlawful, the legislature needs to grow a pair and straight out the biggest law breaker in the executive office.
Check out vote vets they are putting up a good fight and need our support.
Housing for All like MediCare for all should be a priority. The fact that healthcare and housing everyone isn't "profitable" is why these issues haven't been solved. When people are housed and healthy, they are more productive contributors to society. When those with mental illness, dependancy issues, or disabilities are given comprehension services that help them be housed and get healthy, those people who are able become productive contributors to society.
The more we treat each other to eat we would want to be treated, the better things will be. When we invest in each other, we all win. Everyone prospers. The Oligarchy and the wealthy will always be wealthy even when paying their fair share.

NUCLEAR??? NOOOOOOOOOO! ABSOLUTELY NOT! Trump-in Training, Peter Dutton, here in Australia was pushing Nuclear, at the expense of IGNORING renewable energy, as THEY (like Trump & Co) are 'Climate Deniers'! Nuclear is EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE to set up, which as per usual, costs the taxpayers, and it's YEARS before ANYONE sees any ACTUAL SAVINGS! So.... sorry, you lost ME there! (I'm glad he said that at the end...lol)
When my mother gave birth to me in Shreveport, Louisiana, back in 1959, she was in the USA on a working Visa from the UK. She was working as a waitress in a diner, and she SAVED her wages and LIVED ON TIPS, to save up enough money to go back to England to her family, with me as a baby. She was an unwed mother.... my biological father 'shot-through' when she was 3 months pregnant. (typical!) She told me she actually had a gentleman (who knew her story), who used to come in EVERY day for a 30 cent cup of coffee, and left her a $1 tip! She'd managed to save enough by the time I was 9 months old, and so she went home to her family in the UK. Where are all the kind-hearted people like that beautiful gentleman, in the current, extremely divided (thanks to Donald J Trump and his ilk) culture of your country??? It is heartbreaking to watch the country I was born in sink to where they are right now, with this certifiable lunatic and his sycophantic lapdogs doing his bidding, running the country! WTF?!!! It is horrific! I now live in Australia, and became an Australian citizen in 1986.... OUR Country just REJECTED TRUMPISM OUTRIGHT at our recent Federal Election on 3 May, and unseated the Trump-in-Training, Peter Dutton!!! We do NOT want that SHIT here in our country!!! Please, if you value your freedom and your way of life and the opportunity to make your voices heard... PLEASE... PARTICIPATE in the regular, nationwide HANDS OFF Protests to MAKE your voice heard! No-one else is going to save you this time.... it's up to you... ALL of you! Help this grass-roots, people-powered project grow exponentially to AT LEAST 3.5% of the population (11 million people nationally). BE a part of the SOLUTION, rather than the PROBLEM! I KNOW this is a long read, but it is passionate and sincere! Too many elections of good people have been lost by mere apathy! (I guess the BENEFIT we have here in Australia, is that WE have MANDATORY VOTING..... so participation in OUR Democracy is non-negotiable. Worth thinking about for YOUR Country, I believe...)

Thank you Sen. Gallego. You are doing a great job to educate the Latino community. Very important.
"Trump’s administration isn’t just economically incompetent—it’s outright hostile to the people who’ve served this country." Worst is yet to come. Donald "The Beast" Trump is building a wall once again. Colossal tariff wall that is the beginning of the end for the system of down. At first the beast will pull the plug out of the global economy. The worst financial crisis of human history will pull a swarm of the banks underwater and the bank run begins. Then the beast will collapse a mountain of debt shattering the backbone of the monetary system causing a systemic risk to realize. Finally the beast will cast American citizens into a system slavery under the name of Ronald Wilson Reagan, just to "honor his legacy" count the number. After the destruction a new world order will be established in the US. And the Golden Age begins from the ruins of the world wide collapse. All of the system slaves will love it. No more cash - just digital transactions. No more traditional criminal activity. No more tax evasion. No more transactions without the "all seeing eye". Outcasts will hate the world without freedom, hope and privacy. To cover up the mess and distract the public by smoke and mirrors, the beast will engage in a war with Iran. Lies and deceit, corruption and decay, dancing on the graves will continue. Until; Black hole sun, won't you come, won't you come... I want to play a game. Time has come to opt out of the empire of filth. Live or die...
I am sooo glad I voted for Rueben Gallego!
Uh he’s a hard no for me. Gallego needs to join the GOP
Impeach Trump in 2026. Vote all Blue for Congress.
I really enjoyed this interview. Senator Gallego is down to earth and connected to voters.
wonderfulll
Sorry, but I'm not surprised by HIS corrupt attempts to try and push through these ugly a#@ coins for others to buy!
Talk about being a legend in one's mind!!
I seen a few examples of HIS coins, and oh brother.. really??
Pitiful, really pitiful old man!
There's so much more OUR COUNTRY needs to accomplish right now, the GOPNkeeps trying tovpush through their pork filled budget later in the evening by thinking... "Don't worry, no one will see or know what we're up to! WRONG!!
We Americans know what you're doing and it's not good for these GOP members.. and
Incidentally, the Whitehouse is not anyone's personal showroom to sell your overpriced junk, and it's not your personal bank!!
I guess China will no longer be making HIS ties, etc and this could include Melania's merchandise! 🤔🤔
Listening to Senator Gallego, I was gratified to learn just how much he is accomplishing for AZ and, more broadly, for the USA. My next thought: can anyone imagine Kari Lake being even 1/10 at effective? Me either.
I'm currently listening to updated news that trump and his regime wants to send immigrants to Lydia! This must not happen. This must stop. Anyone in the trump regime should be held accountable and tried and sent to prison for this illegal act!
tRump doesn't give a damn about anything beside corruption and getting rich off of it. If any one thinks that he cares about you - you are living in a fantasy world. Wake us Republicans and see what is going on. It sure isn't pretty.
I saw a couple of questions today on my aunt's facebook page today. She is a hardcore maga and has no clue what she is talking about. Question one: Should Fauci be prosecuted? Second one: Should Harris be prosecuted for not closing the border. What fuc___g idiots. The question shoud have been Should Trump and his goonies be prosecuted. YES, YES AND YES.
Good man
I’m not Catholic but this is the most disturbing picture
He needs to quit confirming trumps nominees. I’m tired of this shit. “ I don’t like what trump is doing but I’ll vote for it anyway “. Give me a break.
Off topic, but here is as good as anywhere, Trump "doesn't know" if he is required to uphold the Constitution. Trump clearly did not follow swearing in protocol by leaving his left hand off the book, whatever it was (probably one of those embarrassing Trump bibles). He claims he can run for a third term because he will claim that he was not officially POTUS so it cannot count. According to his calculations, this IS his third term. But - should he survive to 2028 (and I don't like his odds (acually, I love his odds of NOT making it)), he will be running for a fourth term. Next week: I will explain how I can be my own grandmother.
Help a lot of us older folks:
Don’t know the 1st thing about to load podcasts, LISTEN to podcasts.
Can you put easy answers here so’s we can join everyone?
Thank you…
I see a bunch of magas / Russians etc., trying to sow dissension among us to keep us from forming a strong coalition. Please don’t take the bait. We have to stick together to win this.
Tell Sen. Gallego for me that it is a little too late for Latino men. They were sold a package of lies they were looking to buy. They were sold the promise of whiteness. Thats right we don't see you like we see the African Americans; you are like us. Oh well!!! How did that work out, and they will buy it again and again, because they want to. Look at the white Cubans in Florida, complaining about deportations. "We were promised!"
Please keep hitting up the republican senate and congress they are supposed to protect us from these con men. Stop pointing at Trump and start pointing at those who are complaisant in dismantling our government

Everyday, it's some wilful diversion or an obnoxious deflection to rapidly advance the t goals of Projecr 25!
We love you, here in Arizona Senator Gallego‼️💙‼️
Family oriented? What does that even mean??? So if you're single with no kids, you're not family oriented. One of the problems is Latinos themselves are so judgy.

Why only nuclear energy? I've seen windmills and industrial solar panels planted in farmers' fields along Interstate Highway 70 in Indiana and Illinois. My question is why don't we have windmills and solar panels on Ohio farmland? Ohio's #1 industry is agriculture!

Excellent conversation with Senator Gallego!
As a woman of color, I feel you dont address enough issues that are directly targeting our communities. I appreciate your coverage but it's not enough.
I’m glad he’s doing something. It’s about bloody time. I was an AZ resident and I voted for him. Frankly, I would never vote for him again. He has not ever even attempted to respond to his constituents. I wrote - multiple times, I called - multiple times , I responded to his bs on his FB page - many times. Zero response to any of my concerns or my neighbors concerns. If he does something meaningful, great. I’ll personally thank him. But i’m not holding my breath. SMH
None of this is news, or newsworthy!!Publish something when you have rethugicans talking like this. Tired of just another voice from the same choir!!!!
