Progressive Political News

GOP Rep. Brian Babin from Texas recently appeared on Washington Watch Radio Show, a conservative radio show hosted by Tony Perkins, a failed politician who believes that natural disasters occur because God is punishing us for LGBT acceptance. Perkins must be harbouring some in-the-closet beliefs as his house was destroyed in a flood in August 2016, the word you're looking for is irony. He has also suggested critique of Barack Obama's birth certificate was "legitimate" and remarking that "it makes sense" that Obama was a Muslim - so we're dealing with a real bright crowd here.  Representative Babin, showing a complete disregard for facts and evidence, claimed that most people were against the Affordable Care Act at the time it was passed and that the people want to "get rid of this thing" now that "we've had a taste of socialized medicine" - except, the ACA isn't quite socialized medicine now is it, Brian? Socialized med

In our last piece , we discussed how Sally Albright, in her pursuit of "bringing back liberal" (whatever that actually means), has consistently alienated left-wing voters and essentially foams at the mouth with propaganda about how progressives "don't know politics" and how we are complicit in electing Donald Trump as we didn't all trip over each other in order to vote for Hillary Clinton, even though she isn't entitled to our votes, she has to earn them and that was not the case. After further research on Sally's extreme dishonesty when it comes to her selective political outrage, we have found her driving force for twisting words, spreading damaging rhetoric and punching left. Her reasoning for her deceit isn't a belief that she is doing the right thing politically or an admiration for the facts within a political debate - her driving force is to make money in any which way she can, or in Sally's case, helping get Republican's elec

To put it kindly, Sally Albright is a bigoted woman who spouts nothing but false, derogatory rhetoric towards anyone who dares to support an actual progressive politician. Having the unfortunate task of scrolling through the social media posts in which she will automatically label you a "BernieBro" or a "terrible person" for having the audacity to agree with the policy positions of people like Bernie Sanders, Nina Turner or Tulsi Gabbard, has been a literal nightmare. Sally uses her standing on social media to spread propaganda about people and politicians who have the audacity to move leftwards on the political spectrum and has a history of continually being found out, but still proceeds to use falsehoods against anyone who disagrees with her, often using terms like "Berners" or "BernieBro's" and once again twisting this as negative to smear anyone and everyone on the left. Sally Albright herself has an extremely muddy political past,

A nationwide debate is currently taking place in America where one side wants workers to earn $15/hr, which will give them greater economic movement, the people who will see an increase in their wages are much less likely to use government assistance and will allow them to have a more prosperous life. On the other side of the debate, it is argued that this increase will cause an increase in the prices of products, thus creating less profit for the business and the result may be a loss of jobs. Whichever side of the wage debate you find yourself on, the issue is much more nuanced. There are many minor debates that need to take place before we can make an educated decision on this topic, such as: Cost of living in each US State, will a lower minimum wage create more dependence on government programs, what can minimum wage workers currently afford and the effects this has on those earning the current federal $7.25 minimum wage. While the Federal minimum wage is currently set at $7.2

On July 3rd, Contributor Joe Bilello wrote an opinion piece  for online news blog Mediaite, and even if you dislike Bernie Sanders or think he's too far left in order to win elections, Bilello's piece is simply dreadful. The gist of the article is essentially how radical Sanders is as he wants the Government to control every single aspect of your life.. or the Vermont Senator just wants people to have health care and make a decent wage to support their families and have greater economic mobility, just like Stalin, right? Well, no. Not at all. If Sanders advocating for Single-Payer health care means he wants complete governmental control of society, then why aren't places like Australia, Canada, France, Spain and the U.K. exactly like writer Bilello describes? If Sanders wanting to increase the minimum wage is 'radical', then surely Australia, with their $13.47 minimum wage, which the government sets, is an extremely radical country? Do the people of Australia

Donald Trump recently uploaded what might be his most popular tweet , a tweet depicting the time he featured on WWE attacking Mr McMahon - but with a twist. An image of CNN's logo was photo shopped onto the face of Mr McMahon, making it look like Trump was physically attacking the news organisation. Witty. It has since surfaced however, that this clip was not created by Trump himself but by a Reddit user who has a history of white supremacist and misogynistic posts on the site. Some of the users most worrying posts include that he/she would carry "punch blades" when in Paris, in case he ran into a Muslim who "tried sh*t with me", as well as another post where he/she tried to open our eyes to a vast Jewish, Anti-Semitic conspiracy theory by posting a picture showing how a large number of the staff at CNN are supposedly Jewish, thus showing us how the evil Jews are taking over and brain washing us through CNN. Huh, you learn something new every day. In reg
