3 MAR 2017 ·  A discussion on Fascism, what it is how to define it by using examples of recent incursions into the Ohio River Valley: Traditionalist Worker's Party (From their website) "We in the Traditionalist Worker Party fight for the interests of White Americans, a people who for decades have been abandoned by the System and actively attacked by globalists and traitorous politicians. Only by securing a Homeland for our national community, run for and by our people with true self-determination, can we truly have a future for our blood and our culture. We are unapologetically nationalists, fighting to secure the existence of our people and a future for White children." American Vanguard (From their website) "An America based on the immutable truths of Blood and Soil. A multicultural nation is no nation at all, but a collection of smaller ethnic nations ruled over by an overbearing tyrannical state. Our America is to be a nation exclusively for the White American peoples who out of the barren hills, empty plains, and vast mountains forged the most powerful nation to ever have existed; it is logical that America must be once again built from the ground up to recapture the glory an Aryan nation deserves. Vanguard America stands indomitably opposed to the tyranny of globalism and capitalism, a system under which nations are stripped of their heritage and their people are turned into nothing more than units of cheap, expendable labor. Vanguard America, and our nationalist allies across the Western world, see a world of nations ruled by their own people, for their own people."   Turning Point USA. (From their website)"Turning Point USA educates students about the importance of fiscal responsibility, free markets, and limited government. Through non-partisan debate, dialogue, and discussion, Turning Point USA believes that every young person can be enlightened to true free market values." A word on the seeming contradictions of these groups: Fascism was a fuzzy totalitarianism, a collage of different philosophical and political ideas, a beehive of contradictions. - Umberto Eco, "Ur-Fascism" 1995 A word to "liberal listeners" about free speech and tolerance MARCH 4 TRUMP IN KY A word of caution for all active and would-be radicals: beware your social media footprint.

27 SEP 2016 · This is our first attempt at a video podcast, straight from the bunker. It's short, but then again, a run-down and commentary about last night's dog and pony show doesn't need much time. Apologies for the watermark. We're still looking for some good video conversion software.   Thanks for watching/listening. Look for us again soon.

26 SEP 2016 · #bevinwatch2016 The big story over the last few days is the Kentucky Supreme Court's decision to call the Governor's mid-year budget cuts to higher education illegal. Some consider this a victory, but the fact of the matter is, the new budget cuts are still in place, still perfectly legal. It's not a victory when there are still a lot of effective and passionate educators and necessary staff people out of a job. Recently, Bevin has said that he plans on pushing through Right to Work legislation. According to the Governor,governors from states with RtW laws have told him they are better for it. We're going to take yet another look at Right to Work with some information about the impact it has had on Wisconsin. These two news stories are soft and fuzzy, however, compared his statement at the D. James Kennedy Center for Christian Statesmanship last week, in which he proclaimed that "the blood of patriots" may need to be spilled if Hillary Clinton wins the election. We at the Kentucky Muck Podcast have reached out repeatedly to the Bevin Administration Communications Office asking for clarification on these remarks.  Not surprisingly, we have been roundly ignored. Feel free to reach out to them yourself. Jessica Ditto, who has been Bevin's main Communications Manager since the campaign, is out of the office indefinitely. Amanda Stamper, however, is not. At least, we are reasonably sure. She hasn't answered either. Amanda Stamper 502-564-2611 Amanda.Stamper@ky.gov Jessica Ditto 502-229-0420 Jessica.Ditto@ky.gov #trump&hillarywatch2016 The election season is nearly over, and the rhetoric has geared up. The first actual presidential debate is scheduled for Monday, September 26th. We at the Ketucky Muck Podcast will be live tweeting the debate (@kymuckmedia). Bring your drink of choice and buckle up.
