On Rachel Maddow tonight - Elizabeth Warren

[osodecanela]

If you didn't see her tonight on MSNBC, Listen to the podcast ASAP.

Be aware, this is a call to arms to any of us who're part of the 99%. That should be about everyone. Certainly anyone who is reading my journal.

We cannot be complacent. The Republican elite in control in this country is now answering to big money (if they ever listened to anyone else, at least in my lifetime). They think they have a mandate, but as they found out from town halls and political activism in their home districts, many of them are in marked danger of defeat at the ballot box in 2018 if they continue to do what they have been threatening to do.

For the time being we have stopped them from killing the affordable care act. Note - I said for the time being. They are actively gutting the EPA. They are working to do the same with public education.

As I said, we cannot be complacent. The price of not taking direct action now, to protect the environment, to protect our health care, to protect our rights, to protect our future is too high.

Where is this podcast of which you speak?

[osodecanela]

I have the iPhone podcast app, where I simply search for podcasts and bob my husband and I subscribe to hers and they download to our phones automatically. (I've got the same thing with Bil Maher's HBO show as well.) Rachel's first segment is available as video, generally anywhere from 15-18 minutes long and the whole show sans comercials is available as audio only, generally an hour post air time.

I imagine most smart phones now have podcast apps. Just use the search function to find her.
