American Democracy is not promised to us and, with all the forces working against it, saving it will take a level of work most people aren’t ready for. The Politics Girl Podcast is here to give people a reason to care and a reason to fight. Our goal is to inspire. To instill in people a true understanding of what this country COULD be, if the right people were fighting for it, and what it WILL be if they don’t. It’s a political podcast yes, but more than that, it’s a podcast about America’s potential, where one passionate, and slightly mouthy, immigrant attempts to motivate the country to become what it promised to be but, so far, has yet to become. You’ll leave more knowledgeable, more engaged, and more sure that you, personally, can make a difference to the future of American democracy. Everyone’s got a little time for that right? Subscribe for new episodes every Tuesday. We’re in a fight for our country. We sure as hell better know what we’re fighting for. xo© 2022 Meidas Media Network, Leigh McGowan Ciencia Política Política y Gobierno

    What is the Future of the Democratic Party? With Indivisible’s Ezra Levin
    Nov 18 2025
    Watching Democrats capitulate on the government shutdown without getting anything in return was a real kick to the face to everyone who thought we might finally have an opposition up for the fight. As Indivisible’s Ezra Levin reminds us, once we move past anger this can be a real opportunity. If we want the Democratic party to be better, it’s up to all of us to do the work to change it, to challenge the status quo, and to build a fighting machine strong enough to take on this regime. With that in mind, we need to care about primaries so we can choose leaders who are truly ready to meet the moment. Will we continue to lose our country to support the establishment, or are we ready to support fighters who might arrive from the outside? This is an inflection point. We need a party that can not only win elections, but leaders who will shake things up once they get there.

  • American Military OR Trump’s Military? : A Conversation with Kristopher Goldsmith

    American Military OR Trump’s Military? : A Conversation with Kristopher Goldsmith
    Nov 11 2025
    Today is Veteran’s Day and sadly we can’t just honor our soldiers, we have to wonder who they work for. As guest, combat veteran Kristopher Goldsmith reminds us, our president is trying to pit Americans against each other. The president wants the military in our streets fighting for him at the same time his administration is tearing the VA to shreds. The damage this administration is doing to our soldiers, our veterans, and our citizens is incalculable. Which is why Kris’s work with Veteran’s Against Fascism and his new podcast On Offense are so important. We have to throw sand in the gears of this authoritarian takeover to, as Kris says we don’t end up with a military that only MAGA wants to join.

  • Freedom For ALL? A Conversation with Professor Alex Zakaras

    Freedom For ALL? A Conversation with Professor Alex Zakaras
    Nov 4 2025
    Today is election day and as our guest Alex Zakaras, the author of the brilliant new book Freedom for All: What a Liberal Society Could Be reminds us, there are opportunities to be seized. It’s so easy to be depressed but as some institutions fall, better ones have the opportunity to rise. As Professor Zakaras argues, the profound inequality in power, wealth, and status in our nation has fundamentally undermined the American social contract and we discuss what it would mean to extend the liberal promise of freedom to everyone on equal terms and how it could actually transform our economy and politics. Also, if you haven’t voted yet…VOTE!!!!! As always, if you find worth in what we do, please consider SUBSCRIBING to PoliticsGirl Premium.

My patriotism is full bore, your thoughts have been within my own for five years. As a vet it saddens me that other vets think their oath means to degrade or take over our country.

Excellent

I was born in Detroit and have lived in Michigan my entire life. I grew up in a Republican family. I paid little attention to politics until Trump entered the scene. I couldn't believe what was going on in this country. The things discussed in this Pod Cast I have lived through. Since we have had Governor Whitmore in power I feel the people's opinions are heard. Things have been changing for the better and the damn roads are being repaired. Covid slowed the Governor's promises down but never stopped her. I am a graduate from Michigan State University. The mass shooting hear was heart breaking. The university, students and community have come together. All of the people were demanding changes to gun policies. Michigan's Goverment has heard and responded. So I truly believe I am lucky to live in Michigan.

Lucky to live in Michigan.

I knew Christian Nationalism was coming to the surface in America but had no idea it was this pervasive. Everyone should lusten to this podcast and start screaming as if you hair is on fire until you get everyone's attention!!!

Two of my favorites together talking about the federal cases against Trump and his coconspirators. They break down the last several years and make it easy to understand. I'm only sorry to say there is no swearing.

Excellent recap of Trump justice
