Think again as the principles of liberty - principles on which this country was founded - are challenged in the form of a California Communist and a Minnesota Marxist.

Planet LogicThe California Communist and the Minnesota MarxistThe political conventions of 2024 are over and now it’s time to get down to real campaigning. So far, Democrat nominee Kamala Harris has been employing a strategy of avoiding actual issues and sticking to platitudes such as “we’re not going back,” and “joy.” Her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has told tall tales about his military service and his football coaching career, and has been found to have a long relationship with Communist China. Is it Communism they’re selling? Marxism? Lynn Woolley and Lou Ann Anderson break it all down.2024-08-2650 min

Tenets once seen as basic, even sacred, no longer seem to apply. Things like robust competition between candidates, basic consent of the governed regarding rules and process, the opportunity to cast one’s vote for those ostensibly tapped to represent your interests. These items are evidently passé since “the future is now.”These “shortcuts” are creating an electoral environment that threatens the rights and...2024-08-0642 minPlanet LogicThe World the Way It IsLynn Woolley and Lou Ann Anderson look at the state of the election, given the state of the world. As we were recording the podcast on August 5, 2024, Israel was bracing for retaliation from Iran, and the stock market in America was down 1,000 points. If Joe Biden is largely responsible for the wars abroad and the terrible economy, then is Kamala Harris also culpable? If so, can she be elected, and is Donald Trump capable of blowing an election that is his to lose? Harris is giving no interviews, and Trump may be talking too much. Here’s our analysis…2024-08-0542 min
