My thoughts on the Jan 6th insurrection, #45’s 2nd impeachment, and did Biden pull a reverse Obama? My thoughts on how Biden’s choice in a running mate was pulled from Obama’s playbook. Possibly proving that one good historical event deserves another.

Looking at a brief history of the life of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, and what her passing could mean for the future of the Supreme Court, and the country as a whole. I’ll also be talking about the hypocrisy of the Republican Party, and how interesting it is that while they refused to meet with former President Obama’s nominee Merrick Garland for almost a year, they’re more than happy to rush through the nomination process for the Chump administration, within a matter of weeks! Plus, what the appointment of such a young and conservative justice could mean going forward.

This segment discusses why Ne-Yo’s comments at George Floyd’s funeral service were not only inappropriate, but inaccurate.

Not intended for all audiences. Due to the subject matter and content, listener discretion is advised.

This first installment of United State of Affairs (U.S. of A.) looks at the history of police brutality, and how little has changed.
