The Rick Smith Show

Jessica Goodheart: The claim was that tax cuts to corporations would result in investment. What actually happened was wealthy investors benefited from stock buybacks and dividends. Only about 20% was reinvested.

Scott Dworkin: We can use the war as a reason to vote. "You don't believe in war? Well, the Democrats side with you."

Lawrence J. Korb: Everyone focuses so much on when the Iranians seized the US embassy in 1979. Britain encouraged us to overthrow the Iranian gov't to prevent them from becoming allies of the then Soviet Union.

Propane Jane: I've resigned myself to thinking Biden will be the Democratic nominee. All the people I really liked are no longer in the race. Let's just get it over with and move on.

Brett Pransky: The worst thing were the talking points the GOP gave--none of them were true! Yet they repeated them over & over & over again; this is the worst form of gaslighting.

Col. Morris Davis: When I moved back home, I was a judge for the Dept of Labor. This area was gerrymandered, & when the gerrymandering was overruled, I decided I'd spent too much time serving my country not to serve my state.

Greg Sampson: If people were truly libertarian,they would look for a school for their children & would pay for it. Instead,they're happy to have public funds pay for their kids' schooling.There's always been school choice; they have to pay for it

Frank Clemente: Jeff Bezos' salary is under $100,000/yr. His wealth comes from his stock, and he doesn't pay tax on it till he sells it. He can even borrow against it--interest rates are really low. He can let his stock grow & grow.

Sarah Kendzior: It would be unprecedented not to send the impeachment to the Senate, but everything about this is unprecedented.

Jeff Hauser: I am always impressed by Mitch McConnell as much as I am horrified by him because he does deliver.

Bob Ney: I think the USMCA isn't bad. I was against NAFTA itself. The Senate has to be having a heart attack over this. Rick: Pat Toomey sends me emails every few hours about it; he's voting against the USMCA.

@BobNey

Nina Esposito-Visgitis: Bernie specifically mentioned doing things at the school level to follow the kids instead of relying so much on testing. Teachers spend so much time on teaching to the test.
