Crooked believes that we need a better conversation about politics, culture, and the world around us-one that doesn’t just focus on what’s broken, but what we can do to fix it. At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America-a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.

    I Love Your Passion Stacy. Insisting on a woman’s right despite the unborn life is not addressing the issue. Those who really don’t care about other’s lives once born, other than their family and those who pose a benefit, but want to control women and put “in their place are a problem-I Insist. I we only chose between pro life vs pro choice we have lost perspective of loving each other and our relationship with Yahweh. While your strength will allow you to persist, I pray that you have a seat with Donald Trump, and with love in your heart, discuss matters with political rhetoric, put your highest priorities, and seek to understand and hope to gain support for your plan. You may be surprised at what God can do through you. I am sure He has shocked you already. Step Up Higher Than You Are Wonderful Woman. Blessings In The Name of Yeshua Meshikha 🙏🏾

Support investigation into the fact that 20 million Less people "seemingly" did NOT vote this election compared to 2020!! There were many different ways, cyber tech people are making statements about ways machines could have been tampered with, and Musk had an "AP" that supposedly knew election results 4 hours early?! RECOUNT THE VOTES ...

    I completely agree with you, Ms. Abrams! And you know what? We need to insist that they do a recount of the election!! I'm not just blowing hot air! I just watched a video from the channel Comedy Hype where comedian, DL Hughley is saying we need to demand a recount of this election! It shows that it looks like they cheated, and why wouldn't they? We can't just accept this! How do we go about doing that? Please watch that video! We shouldn't just accept this if we don't have to!! You have worked in government, or at least tried to (I voted for you!)! Please tell us how we can go about insisting that the recount be done! We can't just walk away in defeat like that!! #KathyKiddEntertainment!!

    When the Democrats stop blocking candidates who want to see legitimate change (Bernie Sanders) and do the thinking for Americans, we've got a shot at this. Bernie tried to assist. Perhaps it will work this time. Insisting on what? This is so highly nuanced. Stop pushing idealogogical views as facts and I'd wager you'll get a lot of voters back. I voted for KH. I also predicted the Trump win, that's because I don't live in a silo.

  • @Jelly_Skelly

    I only voted Harris because I felt I *had to* because the queer community has basically everything to lose. Not because I believed in her, but because I feared Trump. She backed off fracking, Palestine, and Medicare for All. She courted *REPUBLICANS* , you know, the ones who never met a social program or human right they didn't want eliminated? So I hate to say it, but unless the DNC can offer us tangible improvements, not just an "Opportunity" economy (sorry but most of us don't have 50k to get reimbursed with taxes much less the credit to secure such a loan) but something that tangibly helps us all without exception, all they are offering us is an escape from the boogeyman who wants to take our rights and kill us. Not to help us thrive, not to protect us, just the chance for 4 years of stagnation, which is admittedly preferable to extinction, but it's the difference between voting for someone you believe in, or voting for someone who basically has a gun to your head. In case you didn't get it, the Democrats have a gun to our heads. The threat of their loss being our deaths. Before anyone wants to give any indignant replies, she asked, and I'm answering. If you don't *like* my answer, what's new? No one wants to stand up for us. Kamala said she's "Follow the law" when asked TWICE on NBC if she supported trans rights. If you think our rights don't matter, or us speaking out for ourselves is why she lost, then you are why we have no faith in the Democrats anymore and are the heart of the issue from our perspective. If the Democrats want the support of the people, they need to fundamentally change to serve the people, starting with the working class and other groups that are the most vulnerable and need the most help. Stop trying to become this centrist focus tested thing that only gets donations and votes, but ultimately has the appeal and usefulness of plain cold oatmeal.

    I can't get an answer to this question and the Dems seem content to let the clock run out... As Usual. Is it possible to hack US voting machines and have no one know about it? Trump had no ground game, spent "Valuable Time" playing golf... Harris had a record breaking ground game, phone banks, knocking on 2000 doors per minute at the peak, massive donations, relentless ads. Call me crazy, but Trump seemed to know that the election was in the bag... Something is off and Biden is nowhere to be found standing for our our Republic and the "People of the Light".
