Two mass shootings this month means they are definitely going to fire up gun regulation. Watch out for the manipulation in how these shootings are being covered, though. It is important to recognize game when it is in your face otherwise you'll get manipulated into these narratives.
The border isn't being talked about in the same way either. Watch the narratives they push there. We break all of these narratives down to the break pads!

The latest round of the stimulus check has been approved in the Senate, but does this fit the bill of what America needs, and is it what they promised? No...they played you again.

The Biden administration still has not delivered the "immediate" checks they promised during the campaign, but bombs dropped in Syria exposing partisanship as the ruling ideology in America.

Amidst the freeze happening in Texas, Republicans scrambled for talking points to deflect their failures in managing our electric grid. They've bashed Dems, rightfully so in some cases, for their mismanagement in other states then tried to deflect to green energy being the failure in a red state. This was fully expected yet we breakdown their many lies to just the facts.

Partisanship wins in these cases. It was inevitable as we've stated time and time again here.
Bitcoin is seeing an explosion and there is potential we will see more cases where it is used for more than a HODL like in Miami. Jack and Jay-Z are also funding a trust to help spur the development of Bitcoin as well; which is critical to it growing beyond a HODL.
Puerto Rico statehood is a shot across the Republican bow or at least that's their core concern. This party system has become so corrupt it is mostly concerned about losing votes than it is what is best for the country.
Hannah Cox joins us to talk about policies affecting America and how we move forward outside of the partisan divide.
This is the Ron Paul interview we referenced: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyV9Owe3ojA
Friday, February 5th, 2021 we lost one of the realest I've met to COVID. Ryan Jones was raw and uncut in his convictions so when he was on your side you felt the love. If you crossed him, you didn't have to guess because he'd tell you.
As a father, I watched him raise two boys alone until he met his now wife Alisa. It had a tremendous impact on my life seeing a man cut for his kids before himself. This would come in handy years later when I found myself in the same situation.
He's going to be greatly missed. It is going to forever hurt knowing all of the conversations we'll miss out on. His family gained one of the best guardian angels you could ever ask for.
This is the meal train to help the family. No obligation here. If you can, we would greatly appreciate it: https://www.mealtrain.com/trains/0o4zo3
Presidential lip service is paid after every inauguration. There is a considerable amount of hypocrisy locked into how the sides talk about these executive orders.
The Reddit sub pumped the GameStop stock so hard it completely bankrupts an entire hedge fund. The long term ramifications of this move are deep and wide in ways many are missing while pushing a "take out the rich" narrative. We explore the details of this move and how it may reverberate in ways that hurt the little man.
Politics is always full of hypocrites, but it usually takes politicians more than 1 day to show their hand yet here we are.
Tomorrow starts a new day in American politics. Roger Tipping II joins us to discuss the Trump presidency and what we expect from the Biden presidency.
We also look at Roger's new business venture: presolved.io.
We're staring down the process of another impeachment, but will it actually happen? What is the end result if they do? Is it even worth it?
The MAGA crew is now experiencing what they cheered in the Muslim ban and they're not taking it well.
It never ceases to amaze me how far politicians will go to meet their own desire for power. Georgia is also having their vote tonight so we'll know the structure of Congress at some point tonight.
These parties support their agendas tough until it boils down to it and they'll flake on anything just like they're doing now with this "socialist" agenda for COVID relief.
COVID vaccines are rolling, but the relief...not so much. The government will meet tomorrow and hopefully come to a deal suitable for all Americans.
Nashville suffered a bombing this week that looks to be domestic terrorism.
Trump is passing out pardons and one in particular cracked us up.
A stimulus deal was reached and we walk through what it means for the people. Trump also pardoned some folks and wait for it as more are coming.
Certain Americans tend to think personal responsibility is ever-so-important when it comes to receiving help yet ignore how people got into a particular situation and how the government complete obliterates personal responsibility for themselves and big business.
Joe Biden is now the official president-elect after the electors voted to confirm the election results. It doesn't stop there, though. Heads are rolling and some Republicans are struggling with acceptance.
We're joined with Ameka Ali to discuss how to manage and procure government contracts.
BIO:
Procurement business advisor and government contracting expert, Ameka Ali, is not new to this government game. She offers insider knowledge that helps small business owners position themselves to win government contracts and level up in their business.
As a former federal contracting officer, she has had the experience and privilege to award over $2 billion dollars in contracts to small businesses. With over 15 years as a high-positioned agent in various government agencies including NASA, FEMA, FAA, General Services Administration and more, Ameka has implemented her signature blueprint to effectively guide businesses through the often confusing twists and turns of landing government deals.
The Right is having the same fit the Left had in 2016. The physical threats of violence are a glaring difference and proving to be of great concern.
Financial stress is hurting the nation and it is coming at a time we equate with joy. Let's plan on how to not be here again.
Trump is securing his legacy. Is this for a 2024 run?
Weβre here to educate the public and provide meaningful and productive conversation bridging both sides of the established political spectrums by showing people how to think outside the conventional right vs. left paradigm, to move this country in a more positive and productive direction.

We are where we are because of lies. These lies have not changed much since the days MLK discussed rioting vs the non-violence movement.
"Where do we go from here? Chaos or Community?" - MLK, https://www.amazon.com/Where-Do-We-Here-Community/dp/0807000671
"Natives" - Akala, https://www.amazon.com/Natives-Class-Empire-Sunday-Bestseller/dp/1473661234/ref=sr_1_1
The numbers are in Biden's favor, but is it over? What does the Biden presidency look like in the first 100 days and over 4 years?
The last presidential debate is in the books. How did it go and what changes if anything afterward?
The government is coming after Google in an anti-trust suit that could forever change not just Google but the Internet itself.
The Platinum Plan by the Trump campaign is supposed to set things straight. We're going to dig into what it is and whether it'll truly be a good thing or is it more lip service.
The Right has found their new email scandal and boy were they crying out for government intervention today after social media sites decided to stifle their attempts at pushing a scandal over Hunter Biden's emails.
We also look into the controversy surrounding Ice Cube and the Platinum Plan along with Killer Mike's similar statements relating to Georgia.
There are 23 days left to the election and the number of things going on right now is astounding. We discuss the VP debate and how things went.
This week has been a week of amazing headlines. It really was enough major stories for an entire year, as Markus Batchelor (@MarkusforDC) coined on Twitter.
The first presidential debate matched exactly what 2020 has been so far: absolute chaos.
The Breonna Taylor case has wrapped up as wanton endangerment for shooting another apartment...not Breonna.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed this week. The Republicans are moving faster than we've ever seen them to try and fill this seat with < 50 days to the election.
What is the value of life for you? Do cops getting killed impact you the same way as citizens? Couple this with the economy and we could be leading to something very dark.
California wild fires are wreaking havoc on the West coast. This is causing massive damage across multiple states.
The Atlantic came out with a tough article against President Trump. It was source anonymously which is giving credence to many to say it is false. Is it, though? Or is it just inconvenient to not have a name attached to it? Maybe. Or maybe it is a complete fabrication for election purposes. Or maybe it is half true.
Listen in as we discuss it.
They've raised nearly $3B this election cycle to get it down to 2 candidates...specifically these 2. (facepalm)
The Kenosha shooting happened with Kyle Rittenhouse shooting 3 people, killing 2. Why this matters in the grand scheme of American right now reveals a lot about us as a nation right now.
Mike and John debate the entire shooting scenario and how we dissect the information.
This is a big week for the Republicans as they take the stage to combat the narrative of the DNC and try to cement themselves as the party for 2021 and beyond. Donald largely has his family speaking, but it won't be Mary Trump; she threw Donald under the bus in 2018 in a new recording.
There is a concerted hatred by certain people towards billionaires over their lack of handouts. This is toxic thinking we seem to limit to billionaires only while ignoring our own excess or that which the government squanders.
Biden finally announced his running mate: Kamala Harris. Her past is a bit of a mixed bag in terms of garnering support across the aisle and even within her own party. Which way will this move the needle for Biden?
The government and the public are at an impasse over pandemic relief. It boils down to them arguing over how many trillions (yes...TRILLIONS) the toss on the pile.
Why does the government always wait around for the last minute to resolve problems? We're seeing people on unemployment go without money. Friends, family, and acquaintances are dying. The government is arguing amongst themselves about $600 or $200 for unemployment.
How does qualitative easing impact other markets like gold and crypto? What does this mean for our economy right now and where we're going next?
The 2020 school year is uncharted territory. We discuss how the school system is going to cope with COVID in schools.
What are we teaching our children/youth about their Constitutional rights, ones like the right to privacy, and how important they are to their lives, especially when it comes to data?
How do we teach and educate children? Authoritative instruction, memorizing information, donβt question things, etc? All of that instead of questioning everything, inquisitive learning, creative process development, hands-on problem solving, and MONEY, etc.
Weβre here to educate the public and provide meaningful and productive conversation bridging both sides of the established political spectrums by showing people how to think outside the conventional right vs. left paradigm, to move this country in a more positive and productive direction.

There is a lot of information out there, but how do you know what to believe? Disinformation can steer the entire country in the wrong direction so we need to be aware of what information we're believing and, most importantly, teaching/repeating.
Gil Scott-Heron's famous poem said it will not be televised. Times have changed and this revolution is indeed being televised.
The system was set up this way. It wasn't intended to operate for everyone and the backdrop of protests is covered and handled fundamentally different than corporate looting.
We're joined by Scottie Clark to get the perspective of a former police officer in how to handle "bad apples" along with policing protests.

We're taking the day to look back at an old episode where we nailed several aspects we see happening right now. It was a great episode ended with a great debate over LeBron vs Jordan; which is great in the sense that we just finished The Last Dance documentary.

Roger Tipping II joins us to play the role of a Democrat, Republican, and Moderate in answer why impeachment matters. It is a great thought exercise by looking at all sides of the arguments for and against.
The impeachment hearings have been quite lengthy and informative. They play as a backdrop to a great discussion about partisanship and how we as humans group think.
Day 1 didn't have a lot of fireworks in it, but it did provide the backdrop for how these proceedings are going to go.
After the first night of debates this week, Roger Tipping II joined the show to discuss the general theme of these sort of debates, Dem ideas like Medicare for All, and what really plagues America.

Welcome back to the PFA podcast.
A critical recession indicator just hit 32%. This is major news. The indicator has been right for every recession since the '60's. The USD might be looking at a downfall as well as other countries start looking at different systems other than the SWIFT system. Couple all of that with Deutsche Bank laying off 18,000 employees and we're looking at a wild scenario unfold right in front of us.
All that is happening and Bitcoin is running. What could that mean for $BTC and crypto as a whole?

The House had a hearing about forming a reparations committee to explore Americaβs racial history and the impact on black Americans. It should be a no-brainer, but we explore why it isnβt.
Trump announced his 2020 bid. He does so with typical Trump rhetoric and guess whatβ¦he acknowledges, likely by accident, tariffs impact Americans. SHOCKER! (only if you havenβt been listening to PFA)
Mexicoβs government has agreed to the USMCA terms. Is that a good thing? Yes and no.
Trump is yet again pushing tariffs and touting it as income from a foreign source. That's not true by any stretch of the imagination. It is an outright lie and we, yet again, explain why with an added bonus of a look at the debt and deficit under this "conversative" leadership.
After 2 years, Mueller speaks. What was the core of his statement and what changes now that he's spoken publicly?
The tariff war with China is still going on and the Administration is still lying to the public. We dive a bit into the impact of the tariffs, why the Administration is misleading America, and the acceptance of socialism through another bill giving billions to farmers.
We end on abortion. It is a hard topic to discuss and will never be finalized or agreed on fully. Where do you stand?
