An independent platform for the people.
Nearly half of Trump’s cabinet are evangelicals. The concept of separation of church and state is not meaningful to them. Their political beliefs are concomitant with their religious beliefs, particularly the more regressive ones. Cruel anti-abortion beliefs, efforts to decimate public schools, and LGBT enmity are a few. The most influential evangelical in the cabinet […]
Have you ever watched regular television months or years after cutting the cord? For someone who watches cable tv for hours per day or week, the avalanche of advertisements which interrupt every program become a sort of background noise — you may watch them, even be able to recite two or three of your favorites, […]
Trump appointed Julie Kirchner, who was the executive director of the Federation for American Immigration Reform for nine years, to serve as ombudsman of the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services at Homeland Security in 2017.

It was a headline that felt like a distinct artifact of the Trump era: Devin Nunes, a Republican congressman from one of California’s less glamorous districts and a dedicated member of Trump’s fan club, sues a cow for defamation.

Would you rather have an employee who came to work every day, put their head down, and quietly did […]

It will mark his fourth attempt running for the office after previous failed tries in 1984, 1988, and 2008.

Each week, millions of people ‘experience’ the show across multiple platforms and episodes, making JRE more viewed and probably more influential than any of the nightly news programs presented by mainstream media.
