Charles Bursell Presents
The week was particularly violent, both in the real world and in the cosplaying Chickenhawk In Chief’s fascist reality TV show. Still dangerous, the Regime is backpedaling while the resistance ascends.

Show Notes: The Resistance has room to grow. Don’t ask, demand. American Fascists are miles ahead of their Twentieth Century counterparts. The press fails to cover Hegseth and covers for him. The Regime’s ideological purity test includes a pro-Capitalist pledge. Turn off the video, audio is superior. Harvard’s free online classes. How to unplug the Tech-Bro Monarchs forever: abolish money.

Some needed context in the cold and lawless attack on immigrants: The Regime bolsters its cruel authoritarian project, who the police swore to serve and protect, for-profit media lies, the discipline of nonviolence, the difference between protest rallies and direct action, and corporate Dems usurp the resistance.

LA protesters stand up to ICE, Elon Musk’s political rapid unscheduled disassembly, the German Chancellor schools the Orange Clown in front of the world, and in a victory for due process, Kilmar is back on US soil to face down trumped-up charges.

The big bill is as bad as you’ve heard – transferring wealth to the rich while gutting essential health and safety regulations – and much, much worse: like guaranteeing certain death for hundreds of thousands who rely on subsidized health or international aid. Oh, and it “legalizes” American Fascism. Think I’m exaggerating? Read the bill. Then kill it.

The MAGA pod people, a sad collection of dorks and bastards who rely on hate and lies to hold power, have snatched the Iowa Senator. Plus: Gaza is one giant war crime, a moral victory for West Point, and free thinking may not be what you think it is.

From Gaza to Ukraine to the latest Orange Menace mayhem, imagine how each story would be different if we lived in a real democracy. And then, let every decision you make, and every action you take, demand that democracy.

Several years (from the 90s to today) of questionable audio bits, improv, tests, and outtakes swept off the cutting room floor and tossed into a goofy collage episode. Enjoy!

The Big Abomination Bill gives 25% of total tax cuts to the Super Wealthy (top 0.1%) and 66% to the Just Plain Wealthy. The Working Poor will LOSE a thousand dollars a year they already don’t have. The good news: They will probably fail spectacularly. The bad news: ICE is still the F-ing Gestapo.

To prove a point, this episode has an intentionally provocative title to see if it results in more clicks, illustrating one of the problems with so-called “new media” on the socials. Also: we discuss the latest headlines, the Trump Doctrine and… really, is he gay?
info_outlineEvery odious offense of the regime falls under two basic themes: gut federal services and take dictatorial control of what’s left. Don’t let the daily avalanche of horrible headlines overwhelm you. Historians can sort out the details, we need to stay focused on the fight for democracy. www.charlesbursell.com
