No Comments on TMI 12/27/2024 – Corporate Media Denies Success of CA’s Minimum Wage Hike, FL Dept of Corrections Uses Conversion Therapy Tactics, Biden Admin Admits LNG Is Equivalent to Coal for Climate Crisis, more

Despite full page ads taken out by lobbying groups in USA Today and complicit articles in the Wall Street Journal decrying the maneuver, the Minimum Wage increase in California for fast food workers appears to have been an unmitigated success. We look at who exactly is behind the spin and why we need to be careful who we listen to when it comes to things that benefit the working class, not the billionaires.

Next, we find that Florida’s Department of Corrections is under fire for employing conversion therapy-like practices on transgender inmates. Trans inmates report being coerced or pressured to conform to their sex assigned at birth, with tactics that include denying access to gender-affirming care, misgendering, and other forms of psychological manipulation likened to conversion therapy.

Finally, Biden’s Department of Energy recently released an updated study evaluating the implications of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. The report states that LNG export expansion would lead to increased greenhouse gas emissions, with Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm emphasizing that such expansion is “neither sustainable nor advisable” for the climate. It’s the first time any US Presidential Administration admitted that LNG is NOT good for the climate.

Big Oil Christian Nationalism Climate Crime Rate Democratic Party Episode Fascism FBI Joe Biden LNG SACR Society for American Civic Renewal WSUM

TMI 03/22/2024 – Fossil Fuel Dems Try to Stop Biden’s LNG Pause, FBI’s Crime Rate Stats Show Decline, Meet the Society for American Civic Renewal: the Vanguard of Christian Nationalist Fascism, more

In this episode, we expose the treachery of “Fossil Fuel Democrats” as they brazenly join the efforts of GOP lawmakers to halt President Biden’s pause on the expansion of liquid natural gas (LNG) projects. Beholden to the interests of big oil and gas corporations, these Dems tout themselves as champions of not only fossil-fuel based jobs, but even the climate, all while fighting the effort their own constituents are asking for to combat climate change.

Then, we see a glimmer of hope as recent FBI crime rate statistics reveal a continued downtrend in criminal activities across the nation. This might surprise you if you follow the news (or the claims made by many politicians, especially on the campaign trail), as the overwhelming majority of Americans seem to not realize it. Finally, we reveal a chilling specter — the rise of the Society for American Civic Renewal (SACR), a menacing force espousing Christian nationalist fascism. As we peel back the innocuous-looking layers of this extremist organization, we discover the true nature of intolerance, bigotry, and authoritarianism, and its designs on the foundations of our democracy.

Anthropomorphic Bill McKibben Episode Green Manufacturing Joe Biden LNG Salt Cycle WSUM

TMI 11/10/2023 – Earth’s Salt Cycle Has Been Thrown Off Balance, Bill McKibben on Biden’s Environmental Political Opportunity, the Struggle of Making Heavy Equipment Green and more

Just when you’ve firmly wrapped your head around how human activity has upset the climate, causing a crisis in the skies, a new report tells us how, thanks to human activities, the amount of salts on the Earth’s surface are dramatically out of proportion to what would naturally be there without our digging it up, causing further environmental calamity.

Then, Bill McKibben wrote a piece on how President Joe Biden could help not only the planet but his own re-election prospects by NOT allowing new LNG projects to be completed along the Gulf coast. Finally, we look at the struggle of making manufacturing processes “green”. All this and more on TMI for Friday, November 10, 2023 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!
