Hi. Michael Swaim joins Katy, Cody, and Jonathan to talk about the various ways Republicans are trying to suppress Democratic votes. They also look at the very silly updates to the White House website and the looming cuts to SNAP benefits.

Just some random thoughts Inhad when they were talking about helping out your local food bank: • Two 15oz protein shakes, Naked/Bolthoise Farms fruit juices, 16oz energy drinks, etc. fit quite perfectly in the inner pockets of the standard denim jacket, and are hard to see if you’ve got a gym dad bod (you know, well-built chest, shoulders, and upper arms with a bit of a gut). You can fit four in a standard punk rock vest/battlejacket. • Nobody at ang grocer store is paying any attention to you or what’s in your cart, or wyag disappears from your cart as you shop. • If a cashier seems cool, you can test how cool they are by leaving stuff in your cart, and before they mention it, make eye contact with them, glance at it, give them a little inquisitive look, with an eyebrow raise. Ask how they feel about sticking it to the man, especially if they’re a *remotely* alternative-looking dude in their 20s-40s. That demo LOVES sticking it to the man, and it’s great to foster a good relationship with comrades in their position. • If you put stuff on the bottom of a shopping cart, like a 45lb bag of dog chow or other large items or if you space out about stuff in the back-left corner of your shopping cart, and the cashiers don’t notice, its fun ti remember that it ain’t a crime to space out about stuff in your cart • If you keep your ApplePay card loaded with the $0.01, you can try to pay with it, see it get declined, realize you can’t afford whatever the item is, say you just got a text and realize you gotta go, you’ll come back for it later • The Uncle Leo defense of “i’m an old man! Im confused!” can work wonders to get out of a jam. So can being in gymrat clothing and behaving wicked spaced out/worn from your recent workout. Lay the groundwork by for help finding stuff, even you already know where it is, especially if it’s easy to find, to show how oUt oF iT you are. Most people won’t challenge it because most people shirk away from any confrontation. • Grocery store carts lock up if you try to leave the store with them, but going through a checkstand unlocks them. If you go through a check stand on your way into the store, you can leave the store with it without worrying about it locking up and the alarm going off. • While security guards have degrees of latitude with physical interaction with customers in the interest of loss prevention, as they often work for a security company rather than the store, the store’s proper employees are almost always *explicitly prohibited* from physically interacting with customers, even if they see them shoplifting, and wont interact with shopiifters beyond yelling at them as they leave the store • Target (supposedly) has wicked clever AI tracking for shoplifters, but very few of the standard chain grocery stores (Lucky’s Albertsons, Giant, etc.) do, they just accept the shrink as part of doing business. • The booze is generally protected with lots if cameras, but if Fred goes to booze ans gets a bottle of whatever, then leaves it in the cereal aisle, where Daphne later finds it, the cameras can’t catch a thing. • Beggars LOVE energy drinks, protein shakes, and candy bars. They get obscene amounts if offers of wholesome food, but candy and energy drinks are a rare treat that they often light tf up for. Just random thoughts I had for no reason. Anyway, ain’t Robin Hood a great story?

Farmers are never going to wake up! They knew Trump would destroy their industry because he did last time, and they voted him in anyway because they hate minorities, they’re all fucking racist stupid cunts and have been since America’s inception! They just assumed they get bailed out like last time by their racist God. They are trash and always will be. I don’t even get me started on Stephen Miller, i’m clearly not as charitable to other human beings as you fine people have been raised to be.

As a Micheal, 100% agree with your dad Katy.

I have never understood how and why elections aren't just decided by which candidate gets the most votes and nothing else. Why does gerrymandering even exist.
