TMI 4/4/2025 – The Horror of ICE AND Self Deportation with Leslie “Uber Girl” James, Elon’s “Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day”, Some Good Trans News, more

You’ve heard that ICE raids and sweeps have sent many people to horrific confinement and even brutal violence in El Salvador, but did you hear about the US Citizen that was swept up and sent along? We examine why he likely won’t be coming back, and then we hear the firsthand experience of Leslie “Uber Girl” James with two women who had the heartbreak of self-deportation, escaping the nightmare the USA has become for hopeful future citizens.

Next, we aim to give fresh insights into the horrible losses suffered by Elon Musk, Donald Trump and the GOP in general this past Tuesday. Yes, its all over the common media, but there are parts to it that they aren’t talking about. Finally, we wrap up with some GOOD news for trans and intersex people. All this and more on TMI for Friday, April 4, 2025 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!

TMI 3/21/2025 – Musk Pours Millions Into Wisconsin’s April 1st Election, YouTuber Shows How DOGE’s Targets Are Musk’s Revenge, Walz Rallies in Eau Claire and Eichorn Gets in Minor Trouble, more

In case you haven’t paid much attention to the statewide election coming up on April 1st here in Wisconsin, then you aren’t thinking like a billionaire. And not just ANY billionaire, either: Elon Musk has put over $13 million into our little State Supreme Court race between Brad Schimel and Susan Crawford. Usually you’d be excused for not worrying about what Elon might know that you don’t, but in this case, you might want a quick primer. Next, we keep our sights on Mr. Musk as YouTuber (and engineer) Mark Rober puts his Tesla Autopilot through a series of tests to see if it is safe. It becomes rapidly apparent why Musk has DOGE going after Executive Branch departments like the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Then we review how Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (of Kamala Harris running-mate fame) came to Eau Claire this week to not just rally the faithful, but to so what Representative Van Orden has refused to do: hold a town hall meeting in his district and LISTEN to the constituents. Finally we look at how Minnesota’s most MAGA-devoted State Senator, Justin Eichorn, got himself into some “minor” trouble that forced him to resign his seat in the Senate.

BEST OF TMI 3/7/2025 – Wisconsin Supreme Court race has been hidden in the newscycle, AMA Steps Up for the CDC’s Loss of Vital Info, Obsolescence Was Invented to Make Billionaires, more

On this BEST OF TMI episode, we look back at three of the most important topics of 2025 so far! First, the State of Wisconsin has one of the MOST important elections in the USA for 2025 coming up in less than a month! On Tuesday, April 1st, Wisconsin’s GOP wants to pull the most cruel April Fool’s joke ever by ripping control of our state’s Supreme Court away from us after just two short years. With Ann Walsh Bradley retiring after 30 years of liberal rulings, the 4-3 liberal mix of the court would be put back in conservative hands if Scott Walker’s former Attorney General Brad Schimel is allowed to beat Susan Crawford in this spring election. We got over what is at stake.

Next, we show how private medical establishments like the American Medical Association are stepping up to try and preserve and SERVE the vital medical information that Trump is having scrubbed from the CDC, DHS and other government websites before it is lost forever. Finally, Jessica Wildfire’s post at The Sentinel Intelligence tells how obsolescence was an idea purposefully put into place to ensure the profits kept rolling in – right to the top!

TMI 02/21/2025 – Wisconsin’s Supreme Court Race Gets Hidden in the Newscycle, the EEOC and NLRB Are Under Attack to Destroy Workers Rights, George Monbiot Shows How International Our Troubles Are, more

You might not be aware of it, with Elon Musk and Donald Trump taking virtually all the air out of the news lately, but the State of Wisconsin has one of the MOST important elections in the USA for 2025 coming up in just over a month! On Tuesday, April 1st, Wisconsin’s GOP wants to pull the most cruel April Fool’s joke ever by ripping control of our state’s Supreme Court away from us after just two short years. With Ann Walsh Bradley retiring after 30 years of liberal rulings, the 4-3 liberal mix of the court would be put back in conservative hands if Scott Walker’s former Attorney General Brad Schimel is allowed to beat Susan Crawford in this spring election. We got over what is at stake.

Next, we review how the recent strategic firings at the National Labor Relations Board and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (The NLRB and the EEOC, respectively) hamstring those organizations’ ability to act in any way, robbing them each of the quorum necessary to act on behalf of workers nationwide. Then we read, with permission, the writings of our UK friend George Monbiot, as he details how there, those who had been pointing out the ways in which their society needed to be improved to forestall calamity were pushed aside in a way that’s all too familiar here in the United States.

TMI 08/23/2024 – BEST OF TMI: Musk and Trump Botch the Climate, Palast Alerts Us to Georgia Legalizing Vote Non-certification, Stoller Examines Google’s Search Antitrust Loss, Teens Use Plasma To Boost Crops, more

THIS IS A REBROADCAST OF TMI for 8/16/2024

When men as rich and powerful as Elon Musk and Donald Trump decide to have a conversation and invite the world to listen in, it’s a good idea to check in and see what their vision is for the world we have to share with these reckless giants. On just about every front, it’s not good, and with climate concerns in particular, Bill McKibben noted several especially alarming points to bring to your attention – we spend a moment to share his concerns with you. Then, we take a look at reporting from the inimitable Greg Palast on how Georgia has paved the way to legally refuse to certify election results from its own counties, and that the certification of the 2020 slate of votes by Atlanta’s Fulton County wouldn’t have been certified under this new “quiet coup” technique.

Next, Matt Stoller dives into the recent antitrust loss Google took in court regarding its monopoly on search. This seemingly-trivial decision is going to result in changes to everything we know about online and business practices for decades, so listen in. Finally, we briefly check in with a group of teens who invented a way to use plasma to supercharge seeds and water for tremendous boosts in crop yields virtually anywhere on Earth!

No Comments on TMI 02/04/2022 – Wordle Wants to be Free, Reign of the Space Lords, More

From its origins just a few months ago until now, Wordle has become the simple little online game that took over many people’s Facebook newsfeeds and more – just in time for the New York Times to swoop in and buy it from Josh Wardle. Oh, the NYT promises it will remain free… for an introductory period. Mr. Wardle couldn’t rightly turn down the money thrown at him, but wonders why we can’t just have nice free things? Turns out you can – we explain how.

Then, once the domain of governmental achievement, the space race has become the realm of – and plaything of – the hyper-wealthy. These “space lords” all have flowery language to describe their visions of the future, but a quick look at their own past and present shows that we may not enjoy the actual outcomes that result from their designs. We discuss all this and much more on TMI for Friday, February 4, 2022 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!
