For nearly three decades, Michele Tafoya reported the action from the sidelines. She covered the NBA, NFL, Olympics, and the college football and basketball national championships. And now, during these insane times in our world, she thinks we need a serious dose … of sanity. This is The Michele Tafoya Podcast, with your host - one of the sanest people on planet earth - Michele Tafoya.
Glad I found this. Always respected you in the sport-sphere, and respect you even more (if possible) after hearing this cast. Speak with “civility and conviction” - LOVE that👍
Thank you for writing this and sharing it on your podcast. Your discussion of language is so important. I, too, am exhausted by the tactics of the Left. The gaslighting, nonstop lecturing us on how to think, speak, feel, and act, and being demonized for my beliefs. Keep up the great work! I’ve been a fan since your days on the KQ Morning Show.
So sad you cant see through his lies. Wake up people. Trump is so against immigration and refugees. He called all Mexicans crossing the borders rapists and murderers. He called Middle Eastern refugees terrorists. If he was President during the Vietnam war, guess what he call us. Viet Cong commies and Hung Cao and millions of other Vietnamese people wouldn't be in US. During his term, there were a few wars in the Middle East. He blocked all refugees. If a KKK leader like David Duke endorse him, that should reveal a lot about Trump's intention and character. WAKE UP!
Most USA Jews vote Democrat. Jewish representatives in Congress are about 25-2 in favour of Democrats. Has Rachel not noticed the link between Trumpism and Anti Semitism!? ''Jews will not replace us'' - the folks who tried to overturn the vote in 2020?
USA is not the most free country on earth in 2024, it is not even in the top 20. One reason is the high homicide rates due to there being so many guns which are easy to buy/own!
Rachel is veru confused . Early Christians were Communists, read Acts. If USA Christians followed Christ the Green Party would get about 80% of the vote. Soros is not a Christian or Communist, he is not Left Wing. A Left Wing Billionaire is an Oxymoron. He supports USA Democrats. Nixon was more Left Wing than Obama! etc This is pre Undergraduate Political Science.
George's approach would have receved lukewarm support from Orwell and Huxley, they were more progressive, socialist than George who is a fan of Liberal Centrism or Liberal Centre Right ideas. Welfare Capitalism. Trump's amoral hedonistic nihilism approach to existence leading, inevitably, to authoritarianism was something both Orwell and Huxley were keen to avoid, sadly these collective psyches or psychosis infused with doublethink remain with us today!
Saint George'', he survived the Nazis, very very lucky and now has become the poster boy of anti semitic hate because he funds a range of soft left to centre right/liberal activities.
The average USA resident is so dim they think the Democrat party is Left of Centre!! Mainly because the Media there wants the Left out of power, not keen on a return to 70-90% income tax rates!
You gotta stop using Donald Trump as your example of a rich person. You see, the rich people you mentioned actually earned their money, it wasn't handed to them by Daddy. They are also not thirty-four time convicted felons. They have never been convicted of sexual abuse. They have not created any charities for veterans so they could steal from it. They have not created any fake universities. They have not called our fallen and captured military heroes losers and suckers. They are actually decent people, unlike the wart that you worship. Get your story straight before you start oozing that nasty stuff all over the Internet.
the parties have switched again like in the past The Democrats have become the party of the ELITE 1% & Hollywood types who control corporations and Media , and have IGNORED the working class and Minorities for years .BUT ask for the votes!!! . The democrats PREACH about one thing but DO another when it comes to their OWN interests. The DEMS CENSOR and pressure social media to censor views they dont like the DEMS have been in power for 16 of 20 years and look at the MESS they have made They preach DEMOCRACY but ALLOWED zero in 2020, OUSTING bernie sanders and Installing BIDEN ... in 2024 they ALLOWED NO ONE including RFK to run in primaries then BIDEN wins the VOTES of VOTERS, and they OUST him , installing kamala with NO VOTING IN California they CONTROL the GOVT and they PREACH low income housing BUT VOTE AGAINST it if anywhere NEAR THIER NEIGHBORHHOD.. Liberals' WASHINGTON state has the RICHEST residents paying the LOWEST tax rate !! The GOP is now the party of regular Americans with traditional Values and common sense
I just had reverse shoulder surgery. Good luck. There was very little pain . BUT do the therapy that's the best advice people have gave me. So to you do the therapy
Tampon Tim should be prosecuted for all his false claims about his time in the Military! I served my four years in the USAF honorably during the Vietnam era but was never really big on military life so I got out when my enlistment was over and my wife and I came home from the other side of the country. Timothy Walz should be in jail or prison, not running as the VP candidate as there is actually a law against what he's been claiming. Demon-Rats every last one of them!
On the one hand they beg for the black vote. On the other hand, they suppress the black vote as much as they can. Black voters are being wiped off the voting rolls everywhere by Repubs.
Trump tells people to do bad things all the time. He got Kennedy to stop his campaign and promised him a cabinet job. When Kennedy quit his campaign a few hours later Trump said he hasn't made his mind up about offering Kennedy a cabinet job. Trump will say anything to get his way and then change his mind the minute he gets his way.
These women would take us all back to the 1940's if they could. No modern devices, just women barefoot, pregnant and working all day in the kitchen. NOT for them..but for the rest of us.
It's because even though they may be rich, even they can see that the very wealthy are getting away with paying very low taxes. And corporations? They're getting away with paying no taxes, in many cases.
Here is the problem with Democrats, they want to preach tax the wealthy and the rich should pay,. As long as it is Elon Musk. And none of them. Like CLintons, LEgend Pink Oprah, Schumer, and Pelosi.
Kamala: The wealthy should not take more than their fair share, then you bring out Oprah, with her own island , called Maui. ANd talking about we should save homes of people even if they are burning not just the wealthy when she did nothing to help those burned off her property, which she promptly bought more of the land after the fire.
Here's what's dumb. You haven't read Project 2025. Or how about the way GOP ALWAYS dumps approx 2 trillion on big corp. How do people nit pick everything that is peanuts over this.
