03-07-24 S3E8 Super Tuesday results with Trump Nikki Haley and anti-Biden protest, 3rd Party Candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr and the effort to keep Trump off the ballot

Two Guys on Politics: Lipinski and Hanania discuss the Super Tuesday election results, the negative role the mainstream news media is playing int he election strengthening Trump, assertions that many of the voters supporting Nikki Haley were Democrat who crossover votes, and discuss the efforts by 3 states who sought to remove Trump from their ballots and the US Supreme Court's unanimous decision to block that illegal move.

They discuss how the media's biased manipulation of news attacking Trump is actually strengthening Trump among voters. If Trump wins, it's the mainstream news media that should be blamed, not what failed candidate Hillary Clinton asserted were the immoral conduct of the "deplorables," wnyone, she said, who supported Trump.

Both Lipinski and Hanania say that if a candidate like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., can make it to the November ballot, he would be abetter choice than either Trump or Biden.

02-15-24 S3E6 Biden cognitive issues, New York's 3rd Dist race, and RFK's Super Bowl Ad

Two Guys on Politics: Lipinski and Hanania discuss the issue surrounding the questions about President Joe Biden's memory, comparing it to the issues faced by former President Ronald Reagan during his second term in office. Will Biden step down s concerns about his memory and his ability to deal or not deal with growing international crisis. Lipinski and Hanania acknowledge everyone, including themselves, have some memory issues. But they are not holding the office of President of the United States and Leader of the Free World.

Lipinski and Hanania also discuss the win by Democrat Tom Suozzi in New York's 3rd Congressional District. Suozzi embraced several conservative issues including the need to secure our borders, addressing the growing migrant issues, which has been an issue identified more with the Republicans than Democrats.

And they discuss the criticism directed against Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who used JFK's 1960s election messaging during the Super Bowl to push his own campaign for president. RFK had every right to use that commercial but some members of his family criticized him and he issued an apology.

Two Guys on Politics: discuss the failed presidential leadership of Trump and Biden, and talk about a plan to eliminate taxation of Social Security

 

S2 E16, Nov 30, 2023


In a live broadcast on Facebook, former Congressmen Bill Lipinski and former Chicago City Hall reporter Ray Hanania discuss the lack of strong leadership in America and the pathetic choice for president of former President Donald Trump who is consumed in 91 indictments, controversy and his own petty political concerns and President Joe Biden who doesn't seem to know where he is or what he is doing except from the scripts handed to him at infrequent press conferences.


Isn't there a strong voice alternative for Americans and why aren't American voters clamoring for a stronger new leadership?

 

Also, Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie of the 4th District has reintroduced his legislation to eliminate federal taxation on Social Security, which is taxed when it is collected and taxed again when it is paid out ... part of the problem is that the Social Secrity payments have increased although they rarely keep pace with the increases in inflation and most people who get social security still must have other income or another job ... the combination of the incomes forces them to pay federal income taxes on 85 percent of their social security which is wrong ... Massie is a republican and the bill was only introduced by other republicans, mostly the radical far right like Gatez and Boebert ... why are Democrats not supporting Seniors and a crackdown on taxing social security?

Two Guys on Politics

 

Two Guys on Politics Season 2 Episode 14 hosts former Congressman Bill Lipinski and columnist Ray Hanania discuss three topics:

 

1 - power of CTU on education and the election of Brandon Johnson as Chicago mayor: no elected school/delayed; ending the charter school program. The elimination of Charter schools also ends the tax credit programs for parents who want to send their kids to private schools. Lipinski and Hanania discuss how this might result in more parents with school-aged children fleeing the crime-plagued city of Chicago for safer suburban communities.

 

2 - Chinese President Xi Jinping meeting President Joe Biden, snubs him first and then meets. Jinping's comments were moderate and encouraging and Lipinski and Hanania discuss what impact that would have on US interests, the war in Israel-Gaza and the war in Russia-Ukraine.

 

3 - New speaker Mike Johnson passed measure to keep government open ... exactly what Kevin McCarthy did ... but no squealing from Gaetz or other GOP radicals ... Lipinski points out why the radical right led by Gaetz was willing to accept Johnson's compromise with Democrats while opposing former Speaker Kevin McCarthy for compromising with Democrats.

Two Guys on Politics Season 2 Episode 14 hosts former Congressman Bill Lipinski and columnist Ray Hanania discuss how major international and domestic issues are impacting the upcoming race for President.

They discuss the GOP debate, the elections on Tuesday Nov. 7, 2023 in Ohio, Virginia, Kentucky and a few other states and how the Democrats sept the elections on the issue of Abortion, and not on the issue of Israel-Gaza, Ukraine.

They talk about the impact the Israel-Gaza war is having on the Russian Invasion of Ukraine and how the public is fast losing interest in that conflict as the debate intensifies over providing more money to Ukraine, as Congress pushes through $14.3 billion in additional funding for Israel.

They discuss Zelenskyy's decision to not hold elections in Ukraine.Lipinski and Hanania discuss how the abortion issue has more impact on many of the issues dominating the headlines and reflects how Republicans and Democrats may be too focused on foreign policy rather than on. more important issues like rising inflation and the cost of living, protecting Social Security and the needs of seniors, the needs of homeless which includes a large number of American Veterans, the rising migrant crisis.Lipinski and Hanania want to hear from you so share your views in your emails.

Two Guys on Politics podcast hosts former Congressman Bill Lipinski and award winning columnist Ray Hanania discuss two topics during today's show:

1 - Wokeism and growing polarization“Woke" is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination".

2 - Expanding conflicts and foreign AidExpanding conflicts and foreign Aid of $14.7 billion to Israel. What is Biden doing? What about Ukraine?

10-05-23 S2E9 US Rep Gaetz and Democrats tear down Congress booting Speaker McCarthy

Former Congressman Bill Lipinski and political columnist Ray Hanania analyze the ousting of US House Speaker Kevin McCarthy by extremist radical Congressman Matt Gaetz.

Although the mainstream news media is focusing on Gaetz's extremist ties to indicted former President Donald Trump the media is ignoring the fact that McCarthy wasn't ousted by Gaetz but by the Democratic Minority party which empowered Gaetz, a Florida Republican who has under investigation by the US House Ethics Committee for sexual misconduct, illicit drug use and campaign finance mismanagement.

Gaetz, a long time McCarthy foe, pushed for McCarthy's removal in part because of the investigations but claimed it was because McCarthy had compromised with Democrats to prevent the shutdown of the U.S. Government. But to oust McCarthy, Gaetz had to compromise with Democrats, making Gaetz the ultimate hypocrite.

Democrats have criticized McCarthy for breaking public promises, but had no problem partnering with Gaetz, a radical.

S2E7 Immigrant, migrants and the political exploitation of a serious challenge to America

09-14-23 Immigrant, migrants and the political exploitation of a serious challenge to America S2E7

Former Congressman Bill Lipinski and columnist Ray Hanania address the challenges of a failed immigration system and the growing problems of undocumented, illegal and migrant people who come into the country illegally.

The Rule of Law is the foundation of American Democracy and without it, our Democracy collapses. But the Far Left and the Far Right are exploiting the issues for their own political benefits. The Center Right, however, believes that the immigration system must be repaire dbecause America is a nation of immigrants, but immigrants who entered this country legally.

Today's policies that open the door to illegal immigrants and migrants without imposing requirements to be American first -- to learn the language, to be vetted for problems and criminal backgrounds, and to have a financial support foundation that doesn't put the entire burden on taxpayers to pay for the costs of illegals and migrants to enjoy the benefits of this country without workign to earn it is a mistake that is undermining the American way of life, which was created by Immigrants.

8-17-23 Attorney Odelson analyzes four Trump indictments S2E4

An analysis and explanation of the four Trump indictments with guest Attorney Burton S. Odelson Two Guys on Politics S2 E4 (corrected Audio file) August 17, 2023 Two Guys on Politics hosts discuss the four indictments against former President Donald Trump with an election law specialist who was involved in the voter fraud allegations made during the Al Gore-George Bush Presidential election in November 2000. Former Congressman Bill Lipinski and columnist Ray Hanania talk with attorney Burt Odelson on the substance and significance of each of the four indictments. Burt Odelson is the founding partner of the law firm Odelson, Murphey, Frazier & McGrath, Ltd. which he started the firm in 1972. Odelson has since earned a reputation as a leading expert in governmental and election law. Burt attended Richard J. Daley College, the University of Illinois at Chicago, and received his Juris Doctorate from IIT Chicago-Kent Law School. Synopsis of the four indictments according to the New York Times: Indictment 1: Book Keeping Fraud Mr. Trump has been charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to a series of Trump Organization checks he signed in 2017 to his personal lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen. The payments were to reimburse Mr. Cohen for a hush money payoff he had made in October 2016 to a porn actress, Stormy Daniels, to cover up a potential sex scandal just before the election. But, according to the indictment, internal documents falsely recorded the checks as payments for legal work Mr. Cohen had purportedly performed in 2017 under a retainer that did not exist. Indictment: March 2023 Scheduled trial: March 2024

09-10-23 TGOP Criminal and immigrant rights Biden and Iran S2E3 Former Congressman Bill Lipinski and columnist Ray Hanania discuss a range of topics including: 1 - Do American Citizens have the right to defend themselves in their homes and businesses when they are attacked by criminals … two store owners were attacked and beat a robber and the state considered filing charges against them, but decided not to. 2 - How far is America willing to go to give freedoms and citizenship-like benefits to illegal aliens without vetting those immigrants or forcing them to know our history, speak our language and make their new Americanism a higher priority than their ancestry. Illinois law Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Provides that an individual who is not a citizen but is legally authorized to work in the United States under federal law is authorized to apply for the position of police officer, subject to all requirements and limitations, other than citizenship, to which other applicants are subject. Effective January 1, 2024. 3 - Biden-Iran deal to releases $6 billion in funds (through a manager like Qatar) to Iran in exchange for releasing 6 Americans held hostage in Iran … is that a good deal?

Two Guys on Politics: discuss the FTX Bitcoin collapse, Chicago Elections and who will be the GOP candidate for President, with tributes to JFK and Tim Degnan

S2 E44, 11-22-22 Tuesday

In a live broadcast on Facebook, former Congressman Bill Lipinski, Brian Broeking and former Chicago City Hall reporter Ray Hanania will discuss FTX Bitcoin collapse, Chicago Elections and who will be the GOP candidate for President.

Topics include a discussion about the collapse of FTX Bitcoin, comparisons to Bernie Madoff and the impact the collapse of the $4 billion FTX fund will have on the challenges of making bitcoin cyber currency mainstream.

(29 MINUTE MARK)

Also discussed is the upcoming Chicago Mayor to unseat failed Mayor Lori Lightfoot. Praise for Ald. Raymond Lopez for putting Chicago first above his own self-interests, to make Chicago a better city, compared to Congressman Jesus "Chuy" Garcia who has entered the race in what critics believe is a self-promotion opportunity to help himself rather than the city. With Lopez leaving the race, some of the leading candidates include Dr. Willie Wilson and Paul Vallas. Wilson has the money but needs a stronger campaign team focus, while Vallas has the brains and ideas but lacks the campaign skills to move voter.

(42 MINUTE MARK)

Remembering the JFK assassination and the memories of that traumatic, 59 years ago today.

(45 MINUTE MARK)

And there is a discussion about who will run for President on the Republican side. Will there be a substantive challenge to former President Donald Trump. Mike Pence, the former Vice President, is a weak contender. And what about the Democratic side, who will win.

(52 MINUTE MARK)

The discuss turns briefly to the Ukraine War and the errant missile that struck Poland with all agreeing that regardless of where the missile came from, Russia and Vladimir Putin are responsible for all the death and destruction.

(101:50 MINUTE MARK)

The show ends with a tribute to Tim Degnan, the former Chicago Streets and Sanitation commissioner who rose to be one of former Richard M. Daley's most trusted and brilliant advisors. Degnan passed away this week.

In a live broadcast on Facebook, former Congressman Bill Lipinski and former Chicago City Hall reporter Ray Hanania, and producer Brian Broeking, discuss Biden's attacks against Republicans in his recent speech tot he nation. Biden claimed he was going to try to bring the nation together, but his speech to the American people came across as a political attack against Republicans and made no effort to bring the country together. Biden's first two years are similar to Regan's last two years in office, except Biden doesn't have Nancy Reagan or a competent staff to organize his administration for him.
