Meet the (Third Party) Candidates: Jill Stein

Green party candidate for president Jill Stein.  Democrats believe she’s the Yoko Ono of the presidential race.  Donald Trump believes she’s...yet another faceless disgusting woman who probably has periods.  Both major parties would like you to think she’s some sort of dreadlock-y hippie that isn’t worth your time.  If corporate shills and/or flat out insane people aren’t your cup of tea, join us as we meet our first of the two major third party candidates and dive a little deeper into this thing called democracy!

BTL #234 - WANTED: Missing Senator - 2/27/17

This week on BTL...it's updates from #ResistanceRecess!  People got active, got creative, and got angry in all the best possible ways.  Plus, the DNC chair race results, why Donald Trump should be careful about pushing the paper of record too far, and updates on all the new and exciting (and terrible) laws and policies that will make life for even legal immigrants a living hell.  Come for the terrible news, stay for the many many many creative ways constituents are coming up with to get their reps' attention.  Oh, and join us for our own little action as well!

This week on BTL...we've got yet another Super Tuesday coming up, this time starring Pennsylvania.  (Cue the moment we figure out that the Pennsylvania primary laws are legitimately undemocratic.)   Then follow us through a rundown of the upcoming year's best Senate races - it's not even June and already it's drama as far as the eye can see in several key races!  Plus we have the beginning of Veepstaes 2015, the latest on the New York primary results and election fraud accusations, the week in news about 90 year-olds, and so much more!

BTL #193 - A Hashtag Plan Doesn't Make You #Blessed - 3/21/16

This week on BTL, we say goodbye to our favorite third-place winner, #LittleMarco Rubio.  After what can only be described as a totally predictable and fully expected loss in his home state of Florida, Rubio leaves the title of "Cuban" to Sen. Ted Cruz.  Also leaving the race is Rubio's ambition to ever serve in public office again.  See ya never Private Citizen Rubio!  Luckily the Rubio-less GOP has a foolproof plan to defeat Trump.  It involves claiming that they have a plan to defeat Trump and starting the hashtag #NeverTrump and the only thing you need to know about it is that it's totally going to work.  Right?  RIGHT?!  And then there's some non-election news for once.  Can you imagine?!  Remember those days?  Take a walk down memory lane with us!  All that and tons more this week on a new BTL podcast!
