Frank Chow: Asian- American Political Pundit

 It's Veterans Day. Shout out to my old school podcast partner, Paddy K, who served in the Army in Iraq and Afghanistan. I come from a family of veterans on my mother's side. I have three family members buried at Arlington Cemetery. Seeing Trump even near where they lie is such an insult. He's such a sick disgrace. The Hegseth impeachment was tabled for now, but he needs to go. The "warrior" rhetoric alone is too cringe to handle. But as more and more information is released, we discover how much he has failed our soldiers. On this day, we thank you, we support you, and we're sorry these assholes are running the country. Here are your highlights:   Russia and Ukraine agree to a large prisoner exchange .  Let's go! Dems put Noem on notice .  Trump knew. Trump was warned about Nvidia's CEO and the spy .  Stupid, stupid, stupid. Measles outbreaks across the country . Not just a health burden.  US soldier accused of spying on behalf of Russia.   Republican...

 As the blue wave crashes into Washington, D.C., we must remember the political press will always lean right. They already have numerous articles saying, "Not so fast, Democrats." It's the usual suspects; however, we have to be vigilant. This is a rare opportunity to call out misinformation, lies, and skewed headlines with cold, hard facts. Scott Colom gets it . Yesterday, he called out Cook Political Report for its bias. And as his opponent shrinks away in her Confederate bunker, more of this is required.   Here are your highlights:  The average cost of a new car hits  a new high .  Billionaire tax fails in California . Great job, Gavin.  This could be good. Senate advances bipartisan permitting bill .  Nvidia CEO scandal might make the AI bubble burst .  The White House IT infrastructure is compromised . Russia spyware on computers!  Gaza is flooding . Israel could do something, but as we know, they likely won't. The humanitarian crisi...

 Not gonna lie, I'm still on a high. We have the opportunity to push the Democratic Party to do big things. Maybe not immediately, but two years from now, progress can be made on a list of items. In the immediate, Trump's reign of terror needs to be addressed. It's good to see Democrats already saying, "lawyer up," to the many criminals in Trump's administration. It's time to make them accountable.  Here are your highlights:  The rats are already fleeing the ship . Three out after the midterm results.  Rot in prison. Russell Brand sentenced to 10 years .  The amount of misinformation today is astounding. A 11-day old baby died because parents didn't allow her to have the Vitamin K shot .  Ruh-roh. Nvidia CEO caught cheating on his wife with a Chinese spy .  The New Wave of Democrats .  One thing we can all agree on is that Hegseth sucks and he must go . Impeach and arrest the bastard.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

 It's Friday. It's a football night here. It's brisk, with a side of chilly. The leaves keep falling, and I'm already over the time change. I'm also still on a high from Tuesday's results. I empathize with folks who are still cynical. When has the Democratic Party delivered on XY and Z? You can name the Democratic Party's many failings over the last decades, and you wouldn't be wrong. Yet, the results from the midterms have me hyped. We have young, talented, and really smart folks coming into Congress. Will it fade? Maybe? But give it time. Let them work. Continue to pressure them. We have a chance we haven't had since I was born.  Here are your highlights:   Wall St. is worried about the possible regulation of AI .  Hey, maybe dreams can come true. Dems have the votes to end the Electoral College .  Trump's arch gets blocked by a judge.  I'm laughing. We're laughing. Cyber Truck production is done .  Every January Sixer should be in jai...

 I'm enjoying this. I haven't felt this hopeful since 2008. But if we learned anything from '08, it's that we have to keep our foot on the gas. The biggest mistake Biden made during his presidency was not going out and showing his work. Ribbon cuttings, kissing babies, shaking hands, putting his name on checks- people want that shit. "We built that." People need you to beat the dead horse. The electorate forgot quickly how terrible Trump is as president and elected him for a second go-around, only to realize two years later, he's a fuckin disaster. The Republican Party is a disaster. I said this on BlueSky; this midterm was a reminder that Republican policies are wildly unpopular.  Here are your highlights:   The Best MAGA meltdowns . My favorite, "Our Churches, Christianity -- it's all gone." Bob Dylan meets the Pope .  And just like that, OpenAI releases a new statement about "responsible infrastructure."  The techbros are shaking...

 I'm smiling. The Blue Wave turned out to be a Blue Tsunami. Texas is Blue. Yes, I said that. Enjoy the moment. We worked hard for this. Last night was a repudiation of a fascist/authoratarian government run by Trump. It was a big fuck you to Republicans who will certainly not learn their lesson. And now Democrats have a mandate. Investigations on day one. Lean on this. Get shit done. Our job is to keep pressuring the party to do the right thing. The rest of America agrees.  Here are your highlights:  Governors made history last night .  Huh about that. Dow surges after Dems win .  TRANSPHOBIA LOSES. Alabama elects first transgender legislator to its House .  CVS to break into two companies .  The other biggest losers last night were the Tech Oligarchs .  One thing I hope the media catches on to is that Trump has been a cancer . They love him, so I doubt they reflect it, but it's clear now the country hates him. MAGA is toxic, and the country fin...
