This was a particularly amazing interview! She has such knowledge and a great attitude. The best since some of your historians!

tedstreet.bsky.social•18 days ago

Incredible episode, as they always are. Genuinely, you’ve been my source of news and balance for 20 years. Hats off for all you have done and all you try in face of dark times continue to do, to shed light on the facts of our world with humour. DO NOT GIVE UP! Your spread more hope then you know!

bronteaustin.bsky.social•16 days ago

This is a must hear podcast. The parallels that are used from the Philippines during the Duterte regime and the subsequent political persecution of Ressa are compelling! Take a min to listen worth your time.

grumpyjay.bsky.social•18 days ago

This was a fascinating listen and also a brutal reminder that the US is neither immune to strong man takeover nor all that exceptional. I laughed a bunch but also walked away feeling pretty damn bummed

itsbirdiebitch.bsky.social•18 days ago

Honestly, the most terrifying podcast I have heard in awhile. While, I feel like I should take comfort that your guest is still out doing good work, I just feel so sick for my three daughters. I am also pretty mad at the lack of cohesion& honest discussion, yes, democracy is on the ballot, why how

itsbirdiebitch.bsky.social•18 days ago

Like I appreciate the democrats and I voted for the democrats, but why was the Biden administration giving money to Elon musk for more government contracts, I wouldn’t even consider owning a tesla for years, because I could see he was f…ing crazy. Where was this discussion. Why was it Biden’s old?

Journalism (not Fox new which is a reality show) is the people’s litigator to bring us the #truth and #facts.

wbb20-25.bsky.social•18 days ago

Maria Ressa is a breath of extremely intelligent fresh air and realistic positivity. What a delight!

It was an Authoritarian plutocratic coup.
Why don’t you stop hammering on the democrats and offer solutions. Nothing like beating down on depressed people who were just told their morals and worldview is wrong and stupid Jon.
You are not impressive. More like the flip side of a Joe Rogan coin.

Next time, try these simple steps:
1. Watch the interview,
2. THEN post.

This wasn't about "Democrats Bad."

divinefollies.bsky.social•16 days ago

He is always about Democrats bad…

This may be the best episode yet

When are Trump and Musk's families' going to find the compassion within themselves to place these 2 sad human beings on a 5150 hold?

damiencollins48.bsky.social•18 days ago

Excellent interview! Kudos to both👏

shantahs.bsky.social•18 days ago

You don't think Russia influenced and hacked our election? Isn't that what Reality Winner went to prison for, for leaking that Russia HAD hacked our voting machines in 2016?

lincolnskayak.bsky.social•18 days ago

Make Facts Fun Again!

fynndus.bsky.social•18 days ago

Terrifying

gramrae9.bsky.social•18 days ago

This show was very eye opening!

mandievawt.bsky.social•18 days ago

Terrifying and enlightening episode.

xqme2.bsky.social•18 days ago

Dear Jon, you should have follow the Governor of California foot steps address these social media conversations with prominent MAGA figures. I think you can do a better Job.

joshuarose.bsky.social•18 days ago

Maria talked about enshitified communities, great shout-out to @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy Corey Doctorow

But also talked about Matrix protocol.

Is this it? https://Matrix.org

Very very interesting episode, merci 🙏🏻

leapbaby1960.bsky.social•18 days ago

I think we're at the point of civil disobedience. So sick of the passive reaction of the sane people in the congress. DO SOMETHING!

figsdee.bsky.social•17 days ago

I feel ya. For now, continue showing up at organized protests and take others.🪧

71 per cent of the world is under authoritarian rule.

kosclay.bsky.social•18 days ago

I am surprised Trump hasn't banned being called a "trans😀actional" President. Watching with interest from a FREE Canada..#nofreetirade #porcelaincup,#TEXTonTEACUP,#artistconcept,#notthe51st

siobhanmitchell.bsky.social•18 days ago

maliwaka.bsky.social•16 days ago

maliwaka.bsky.social•16 days ago

maliwaka.bsky.social•16 days ago

@crookednews.crooked.com @podsaveamerica.crooked.com You guys should talk about this next pod! Maria's message should reach as many people as possible.

hrosetruff13.bsky.social•17 days ago

Fantastic interview. Thank you for this.

magpieheaven.bsky.social•18 days ago

Excellent! Please entertain the notion of doing a podcast with Liz Cheney. Seriously

magpieheaven.bsky.social•18 days ago

I will also make this proposal to @lizcheney.bsky.social so that she may consider it as well. Seriously

dlbowers.bsky.social•17 days ago

Spread the fear anger and hate for what the broligarchy did to our country!

john-lis.bsky.social•17 days ago

As a Canadian watching this reality TV series I can explain to you why the world wasn't surprised about the UN vote. In (S)eason 1 he made it clear his UN vote was tied to Russia & North Korea. Why would it be any different in S3 when he returned. S2 was predictable but I liked it.

cjmitty.bsky.social•18 days ago

I love her she gives me hope. They want to daze and confuse.

ray808.bsky.social•17 days ago

Excellent episode. Thank you!

cairbre13.bsky.social•18 days ago

Great podcast, if only the democratic leaders listened to it

1whocaresnow.bsky.social•17 days ago

Great discussion Jon and Maria. Learned a lot. First time I have ever listened to a podcast twice! (What can I say, it takes me twice as long.)

"When you have no facts, the only government that can survive is a dictatorship."
"The only way you fight back is with facts and law."
"If you don't stand up for your rights right now, you will only get weaker over time."

kauaihorses.bsky.social•17 days ago

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social & others planning to run in '26 and '28 need to see that now is the time to lead & organize the Resistance. Many are still operating under the old paradigm of democracy. However, there has been a huge shift to the authoritarian regime under which we are already suffering.
