Ep 11: The Right To Supremacy

The Shit Show Radio Hour

In a very special episode of The Shit Show Radio Hour: Lonnie Bruhn recorded a whopping 1hr and 31 minute show, but Bruhn says it’s his favorite show to date because the sheer amount of time he put towards researching this topic:

Lonnie walks listeners through the entire history behind the decades old fierce senate partisan battle that led to the unprecedented decision by the GOP to force their fast-track party line vote nominating Judge Amy Coney Barrett as our 9th Supreme Court justice.

What many people don't know, the timeline began as far back as 2003 when the senate Democrat minority blocked 10 of George W. Bush’s nominations; waging a senate battle in the upper chamber with the Republican led Majority . However, there is a plot twist Republicans never like to bring up.

This battle lasted through 2005 until the infamous “Gang of 14” saved the day in the final minutes of Defcon 4 by fostering a peace agreement between both sides of the isle. A written agreement that kept peace until 2013.

Make no mistake though, the battle waged in 2003 for supremacy, it had never truly come to an end. The real truth is, a decade earlier, a full on war had been waged. That war— it had only just begun.
