Lots to be Happy About

Lots to be Happy About

2022-12-0914:26

This is my first episode after COVID, and there is quite a bit to be happy about. A marriage equality bill has been passed an awaits the President's signature. Brittany Griner is on her way home today! The mid-terms are mostly a win for Democrats after Raphel Warnock was reelected. Gas prices are down and hopefully inflation follows!

Mid-Term Results

Mid-Term Results

2022-11-1720:52

In this episode, I talk about the mid-term election results. I will discuss how this will affect legislation and the balance of power. I will also discuss Donald Trump's announcement and how that will add to the division among the Republican party. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast.

In this episode, I talk about the scare term "Radicals", and how it played into the midterms as well as the pollical climate. Just because people have far left or right views doesn't mean they are radicals. It means they have a view that isn't common, but isn't very extreme. However, if you listen to the fear mongering, these far leaning individuals are radical extremist. I think we need to get back to understanding that differences in opinions does not mean other are ...
Back From Time Off

Back From Time Off

2022-11-1003:10

Hello, everyone! I am back from some time off. I was not expecting to take that much time, and I am sorry about doing so unannounced. Between me losing my voice after attending a professional sports event and not much going on in US politics due to the midterms, I let one week turn into three. However, I'm back and I will have a new episode up tonight! Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast!
Term Limits

Term Limits

2022-10-1916:38

In this episode I talk about term limits. Will they work as intended to end politician corruption and apathy? I don't think term limits will work in most governing bodies. They would limit the person from getting anything done. There are better ways to get rid of corruption and apathy. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast.

In this episode, I talk about Biden's cannabis announcement. The announcement is a step in the right direction, but more will need to be done to legalize cannabis. In Texas, Governor Abbot announced there will be no expunging of cannabis crimes in the state. This is not a surprise coming from the Republican Governor. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast.

Quiet Quitting

Quiet Quitting

2022-10-0516:10

In this episode, I talk about the quiet quitting trend. The trend is miss named because people are just working their job description. If extra effort is not rewarded, then why should extra effort be put in. Companies could end this trend by rewarding extra effort as they should. Thank for listening to The Jim Policast.

In this episode, I talk about DeSantis and the 48 migrants in more detail. As it turns out, there were pamphlets used to lure the migrants away from the facility. This makes an already tragic situation even more tragic. The migrants from Central and Sount America are headed our way for a number of reasons. One of the main reasons being the violence of the drug cartels. The US can cut down on the number of migrants by taking money from the pockets of the cartels.&...
GOP Midterm Strategy?

GOP Midterm Strategy?

2022-09-1614:45

In this episode, I talk about GOP strategy that could blow up in their faces. The federal abortion ban that was introduced by Lindsey Graham is not going to work out well. The Republican governors sending migrant all over the county is not going to help the GOP during midterm either. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast!

The Trump Documents

The Trump Documents

2022-09-0819:30

In this episode, I talk about the documents that were taken from Mar-A- Lago. A judge ordered an itemized list each box that was taken from the Trump resort location. The number of documents that Donald had would have easily landed anyone else in prison. I break down the numbers for the documents seized and what each classification means. I also talk about my prediction about Donald going to prison. Find out if I changed my mind yet. Thank you for listening to Th...
In this episode, I talk about Biden's student loan forgiveness program. I also talk about the Republican arguments against the program. Many of them are weak, but one does stick out. How does this apply to me? Many Americans don't go to college and did not get any of that debt. Why should they help pay it off? I think forgiving student loan debt is the start of this country truly investing in education. This means all kinds of educations that don't involve ...
In this episode, I talk about the Inflation Reduction Act and the Republican spin against it. The Inflation Reduction Act will do a number of positive things, like add funding to the IRS and cap out of pocket expenses on prescriptions for Medicare. The Republicans will have you think the IRS is coming for you and they reduced your Medicare benefits. None of that is true. Listen to this episode to find the anti Republican spin. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policas...
Brittney Griner

Brittney Griner

2022-08-0712:05

In this episode, I talk about Brittney Griner and why she should be released. I also discuss two arguments I had against letting her out. Brittney was sentenced to 9.5 years in prison for THC cartridges. The US needs to get her out because Russia is trying to win one at her expense. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast!

Obergfell

Obergfell

2022-07-2807:42

In this episode, I talk about Oberfell and if SCOTUS with overturn the case. Democrats are trying to introduce legislation that will codify Oberfell. However, Republicans are against the bill, saying it's a waste of time and SCOTUS will not touch the case. I think Republicans are right, but missing context. SCOTUS will not touch the case, yet.

Uvalde

Uvalde

2022-07-1510:58

In this episode, I talk about Uvalde and the police response to the school shooting at Robb Elementary School. I was very angry about the police response because it took them so long to do anything. However, I did not make an episode on the response until I had more information. It's clear that we need gun control and police training to stop further shootings. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast. Be sure to like The Jim Policast on Facebook and Twitter. A...
In this episode, I talk about the January 6th hearings and if Trump will go to prison or get any consequences from the hearings. I don't think anything happens to Trump, and I think there is a different person that will face consequences from the hearing. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast.

SCOTUS and Republicans

SCOTUS and Republicans

2022-07-0108:07

In this episode, I have to issue a few retractions. I predicted that the Supreme Court would not overturn Roe and they did. I also said that overturning Roe would not help Republicans, and Nate Silver showed me I was wrong on that. Listen in to find out why I was wrong, and how the Supreme Court's rulings will help Republicans. Hint, it's not because Republicans are popular. Thank you for lisetning to The Jim Policast!

The Texas GOP

The Texas GOP

2022-06-2310:58

In this episode, I talk about the document released by the Texas Republicans, outlining their platforms. The big lie is prominent in the document, as Texas Republicans do not believe that Joe Biden is the legitimate President. This is an issue for national Republicans, who are trying to distance themselves from the events that took place on January 6, 2021. The Texas Republicans also outline the need for more voter restrictions, and free exercise of the Second Amendment.&nbs...
Gas Prices

Gas Prices

2022-06-1609:00

In this episode, I talk about gas prices, and how the Biden administration is not at fault. We have all dreaded to fill our tanks, and the price total at the pump hurts. Many blame the Biden administration for the high prices, but there is no real action from Biden that could cause this. No policy or strict permit control is at the heart of the gas prices being so high. Only time will tell what happens next, not much any world leader can do to stop what happens next.&n...
Fascist Democracy

Fascist Democracy

2022-06-0707:08

In this episode, I talk about a Tic Tok trend starting with what's a conspiracy theory you 1000% believe in. I believe the US is a Fascist Democracy and that's why our government benefits the wealthy as much as it does. Wealth distribution in this country is slanted to the top so much that it goes beyond a model Oligarchy. A Fascist government is the only thing I can think of that could achieve such wealth distribution. Thank you for listening to The Jim Policast! ...
