by MOMocrats in Politics Progressive
Tags: politics progressive democrats feminism education
Karoli of Crooks and Liars talks IRS "scandal," Michele Bachmann's decision to not run, and successful Obamacare implementation in CA for the first 19:00 minutes.
At 20:00, K-12 News Network's Cynthia Liu speaks with Kathleen Oropeza and Christine Bramuchi of FundEducationNow.org. This non-profit made up of authentic parents in FL has worked in coalition with the Florida PTA, the NAACP, Parents Across America, and LULAC to defeat the "parent trigeer" bill in Florida's state legislature TWICE. We'll learn how they managed this incredible feat of organization and use of the democratic process to flex their muscles as real grassroots parents against well-funded astroturf opponents who want to privatize public schools.

A Tea Party Resurgence?
by MOMocrats in Politics Progressive
Tags: politics progressive democrats tea party irs
The IRS is still on the hot seat today, as Lois Lerner, who headed the division responsible for tax-exempt filings pleads the fifth before Congress. And the Tea Party smells blood. But we wonder where they got the idea that their organizations were actually entitled to tax exempt status. That's not what it says in the tax code. Karoli, Cynematic join Donna Schwartz Mills in this week's political discussion from the progressive POV, hosted by the MOMocrats. Produced by Engender Media Group.

A Very Bad Week for the White House
by MOMocrats in Politics Progressive
Tags: IRS DOJ Benghazi politics progressive
Dire news for Democrats this week: That IRS admission of targeting tea party groups, the Justice Department investigation of the AP, and Benghazi, Benghazi, Benghazi. Is there fire where there's smoke -- or is this just another page out of the playbook the GOP used to take the Clintons down? Karoli joins Cynematic and Donna Schwartz Mills in this week's political discussion from the progressive POV, hosted by the MOMocrats. Produced by Engender Media Group.

Clarifying HCR with @Karoli

Healthcare Reform.
If you are like me sorting out the good from the bad in the current Healthcare bill has been a monumental challenge. Karoli joins Wild Woman Network to help us clarify where we are now with the bill and what we should and could look for in the future.
Now that health care access is about to be a reality for everyone after nearly 100 years of effort, the insurance industry has ramped up the noise machine, while many liberals are disappointed in the compromises i -

What A Week It Was in Boston
by MOMocrats in Politics Progressive
Tags: politics progressive democrats feminism education
Karoli of Crooks and Liars and Cynematic of K12NN discuss the capture of the Boston Marathon bombing suspects, the effects of the sequester and how a big screwup on an Excel spreadsheet ripped apart the intellectual justification for austerity policies that urge cuts during a recession. Can we just stop with the unproven austerity now?
Also, who is Pete Petersen and why do a handful of billionaires get to decide everything from economic policy to education reform?
Two bright notes: Elizabeth Colbert-Busch, the Democratic candidate for Congress in SC, is in the lead over Republican Mark "Hiking the Appalachian Trail" Sanford, the disgraced former governor of the state. Heh. And the guy that was fingered as a suspect in the ricin-tainted letters to Congress incident is a loopy foot reflexologist, and not a creepy poisoner. What? Just listen.

Boston Bombings and Gun Safety
by MOMocrats in Politics Progressive
Tags: politics progressive democrats feminism education
Karoli & Cynematic on today's show.
With a Senate vote scheduled for 4 pm Eastern today on universal background checks and other key components of gun safety legislation, comprehensive immigration reform introduced by the Gang of 8, and a horrific bombing in Boston that killed 3 and maimed or seriously injured hundreds more – this has been a week that is testing our country in numerous ways. Are we resolved? Resilient? Can we secure the improvements to gun safety laws we need even as we face the NRA’s opposition to the use of chemical taggants in explosives? Of one thing there’s no doubt: the Boston Marathon bombing has inspired MORE people to defy the fear the incident was meant to provoke. On today’s show we’ll talk about all of this AND the moneyed interests that use social media to try to divide and conquer progressives.

Good News and Bad News on the Gun Debate
by MOMocrats in Politics Progressive
Tags: politics progressive gun legislation education elizabeth colbert busch
Good news on the gun debate in Connecticut; not so good in the Senate. Plus, the NRA reveals its serious plan on increasing security in our public schools. (How do we know it's serious? It's 225 pages long!) And now it's official: Mark "Appalachian Trail" Sanford will face Elizabeth Colbert Busch in South Carolina.
These are just some of the topics Cynematic, Karoli and Donna Schwartz Mills will tackle in this week's political discussion from the progressive POV, hosted by the MOMocrats. Produced by Engender Media Group.

MOMocrats MOMochat: The Connecticut Effect is Over
by MOMocrats in Politics Progressive
Tags: politics progressive democrats steubenville gun legislation
The NRA was right: Harry Reid decided to squelch the asault weapons ban. Has the "Connecticut Effect" (after Sandy Hook) ended?
MOMocrats Karoli, Lee Reyes-Fournier, Jaelithe Judy and Donna Schwartz Mills also touch upon the Steubenville rape verdict -- and CNN's reporters' empathy for the rapists... as well as the GOP's well publicized "autopsy" of what went wrong in 2012 and how they plan to fix it.

Tags: politics progressive democrats feminism education
... same old issues. Sure, a deal was hammered out on the fiscal cliff on New Year's Day so now attention has turned to the debt ceiling, which we will likely reach on Valentine's Day. Republican Senators are also sharpening their knives for a protracted battle over confirming the President's second term cabinet members. Will we get the filibuster reform we sorely need to get anything done? And Joe Biden is meeting with the NRA over gun control. Same old, same old? Karoli and Jessi
