Sure, let's protect Oprah Winfrey or Stephen Spielberg from their stalkers, but stopping ICE flights from being held publicly accountable is yet another red flag in a long line of them. Then, we look at how a coalition of activist groups in Washington DC are helping the citizens of our nation's capitol stand up and fight back against the forces Trump unleashed to "protect" it.


Next, we look at how Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is taking a different tactic to fight back against Trump's war on trans health care: suing the Trump regime only gets you so far, so what if you tell the hospitals that are rolling over that they will be held accountable by the State of Michigan? Finally, we look at the Science Fair held by Congressional Democrats to highlight all the research being flushed away by Trump's cancellation of grants.

Electing to take up a lawsuit brought by then-Senator JD Vance in 2002, what will be on the table is one of the final prohibitions on campaign spending, and the makeup of this Court makes the 2010 one that said yes to Citizens United v.

Bill McKibben's recent blog post tackled brilliantly the fact that while the Trump regime has been announcing emergencies everywhere, the ones that legitimately need to be addressed are only made WORSE by the corporate-friendly "solutions", and the rest of these EXCUSES only benefit a VERY few tied directly to Trump - we review it. Then, we look at Ezra Klein's book "Abundance" (co-authored by Derek Thompson) and how it falsely frames problems in doing good things for people as the fault of those who created the solutions, rather than expose the sinister actions of monopolies that don't want their profits harmed. Finally, we briefly note that, likely for the first time ever, Trump issued a full Presidential Pardon for a corporation.

On Tuesday, April 1st, Wisconsin's GOP wants to pull the most cruel April Fool's joke ever by ripping control of our state's Supreme Court away from us after just two short years. With Ann Walsh Bradley retiring after 30 years of liberal rulings, the 4-3 liberal mix of the court would be put back in conservative hands if Scott Walker's former Attorney General Brad Schimel is allowed to beat Susan Crawford in this spring election.

First, the State of Wisconsin has one of the MOST important elections in the USA for 2025 coming up in less than a month! On Tuesday, April 1st, Wisconsin's GOP wants to pull the most cruel April Fool's joke ever by ripping control of our state's Supreme Court away from us after just two short years. With Ann Walsh Bradley retiring after 30 years of liberal rulings, the 4-3 liberal mix of the court would be put back in conservative hands if Scott Walker's former Attorney General Brad Schimel is allowed to beat Susan Crawford in this spring election. We got over what is at stake.


Next, we show how private medical establishments like the American Medical Association are stepping up to try and preserve and SERVE the vital medical information that Trump is having scrubbed from the CDC, DHS and other government websites before it is lost forever. Finally, Jessica Wildfire's post at The Sentinel Intelligence tells how obsolescence was an idea purposefully put into place to ensure the profits kept rolling in - right to the top! All this and more on TMI for Friday, March 7, 2025 – listen in for YOUR Cure for the Common Media!

Then, Secretary Rubio's just published new rules for obtaining a Visa into the United States that supposedly were to be aimed only at athletes, but are so full of holes that they could be applied to anyone who doesn't happen to match their assigned gender at birth.
