TMI 05/09/2025 – Interview with Ricky Gaona, Documentary Filmmaker of Means TV’s “Parque Central”, Judge Quotes Shakespeare in Takedown of Trump, Gov. Evers Stands Up to ICE Czar Homan, more

Parque Central, exclusive to Means TV (means.tv), is a documentary about the sharp divides to be found in the day to day lives of those native to the Antigua, Guatemala area and the rich tourist-catering class that runs the city – Ricky Gaona comes to us to talk about his experiences in making such a visceral and vital look at how the need for money turns people into problems.

Next, we look at how Judge Beryl Howell used Shakespeare in permanently blocking Trump’s attempt to destroy law firm Perkins Coie and how that then stops Trump from doing the same to other lawyers who don’t agree with his edicts. Finally, we follow up on Governor Tony Evers’ memo on how to handle interactions with ICE agents, as Tom Homan, acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) threatened Evers with dire consequences over what was a perfectly legal statement by the Governor. Evers isn’t going to back down, and we let you hear it in his own words. All this and more on TMI for Friday, May 09, 2025 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!

TMI 4/25/2025 – A Memoriam of Pope Francis’ Legacy Fighting For the Marginalized, Governor Evers’ Memo on How to Deal with ICE agents, AOC Rides Momentum of Dem’s Need for Leadership, more

Pope Francis passed away this week, leaving behind a legacy that many outside the Catholic Church don’t realize. We look at a tribute by John Nichols from The Nation which helps shed a light on how the departed pontiff fought to make the world better for those who are marginalized by capitalism. Then, we review how Governor Tony Evers’ memo to Wisconsin State agencies and facilities on how to deal with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents caused a stir, despite it being fairly standard advice on how to keep your rights intact in the face of overzealous enforcement. Finally, we examine how the tide has shifted in the Democratic Party, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seems well positioned to ride it into leadership of the Party.
