The newest episodes first, then every show. Each series plays start to finish on one page.
In the Texas Senate, the bar for bringing a bill up was lowered twice under Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick (R), the second time by exactly the eighteen votes the new bar now asks for; this episode follows that rule to the voucher bill, which came up with twenty votes when the old rule asked for twenty-one, then to the library bill SB 13, which cleared even the old bar and which Rep. Vikki Goodwin (D) voted against twice.
Vikki Goodwin, Democrat, state representative from Austin since 2019, running for Lieutenant Governor of Texas against Dan Patrick: every attack on her -- including the AI-generated ads his campaign pulled -- checked against her votes, her bills and the record. What she actually did in the Texas House, and whether the attacks describe it.

Dan Patrick's campaign posted AI-generated videos of his opponent, and she has filed a police complaint under a 2019 deepfake law his Senate passed 31 to 0; the episode checks what that law covers, when it applies, and who has actually been charged under that section of the Election Code.
Dan Patrick spent a decade lowering the bar to bring bills to the Senate floor, and his own 'law and order' priorities still died.
Long-form explainers: one subject, every type and every side of it, each chapter self-contained so it stands alone as a short. Receipts on screen, Stewart register, no invented fact.
The opening statement. In 2019 Donald Trump vowed America would never be socialist. This series puts that vow on trial against the record of his Republican administration: the stock, the golden share, the cut, the check, and the receipts.
Before anyone tells you the 2026 Texas vote was stolen, read the law that sets the count. Early voting ballot boards count the ballots. Commissioners courts canvass them between the third and eleventh day after Election Day. The 'counting window' experts warn about is written in the statute, and so is the record of what the attorney general and the Legislature did to Texas election administration.
A sitting U.S. senator said on a debate stage that national security is not her thing. The receipts show her own committee seats, and a sanctions law named for her late brother that passed the Senate eleven days before she said it, so the episode asks every state what a senator is supposed to know.
House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, Republican of Minnesota, said he counts only Republican votes, then delivered H.R. 1 by one vote; this episode sets his words next to the roll calls, the CBO letters and Minnesota's own impact sheets to show what that count cost the people of the 6th District.
Doug Chapin trained the people who run America's elections and wanted to retire as an 'election geek.' After the January 6 pardons, the DFL-endorsed Hanover attorney decided to run against House Majority Whip Tom Emmer in Minnesota's 6th District. This is who he is, what he says he would do, and why the odds are long.
One Texas House Republican per episode, in a district Trump won by 18 points or less: their roll-call votes in the 89th Legislature and its 2025 special sessions (school vouchers, the mid-decade congressional map, property tax, THC, water, the flood response), their own words, and what it meant for the people in their district -- set beside their Democratic opponent on the Nov 3 ballot. Early voting Oct 19-30.
Greg Abbott's property-tax and corporate-handout record, walked line by line through the state's own budget documents and the Texas Tribune receipts.
Ken Paxton's record as Attorney General, built from court filings, sworn statements and the 2023 impeachment articles, never from characterization.
James Talarico, Democrat, against his own legislative record: what he filed, what passed, what the receipts can't tell us, and why we call him the good kinda socialist.
Gina Hinojosa, Democrat, running for Texas governor against Greg Abbott: every attack ad against her checked against the roll call, the bill text and the fact checks. What she actually voted for, and the conservative principle (local control) the attacks bury.
Dan Patrick, Republican, Lieutenant Governor of Texas since 2015, running for a fourth term against Vikki Goodwin: his own words and his own record, checked against the documents. Episode 1: his campaign's AI-generated ads of his opponent, the 2019 Texas deepfake law, and who in Texas the law has actually been enforced against.
Vikki Goodwin, Democrat, state representative from Austin since 2019, running for Lieutenant Governor of Texas against Dan Patrick: every attack on her -- including the AI-generated ads his campaign pulled -- checked against her votes, her bills and the record. What she actually did in the Texas House, and whether the attacks describe it.
A three-episode miniseries that ends on Election Day 2026. Immigration enforcement operations in Texas this year: who ordered them, what they cost taxpayers, who they actually hit (workers, employers, the prices Texans pay), and what the Texas Republicans on the November ballot said versus what they voted for. Every claim from the agencies' own releases, court filings, and named reporting.
The tariffs were sold as a way to build up American production and as leverage abroad. After an election scare they were rolled back on more than 200 foods, the Senate's votes to end them sat untouched in the House, and the Supreme Court struck down the emergency tariffs only for a new 10% charge to replace them the same day. All the while, the beef price was being driven by a herd shrinking toward a 75-year low.
From 1981 to 2024, the roll calls, tallies and budget scores show where the Republican Party's promises on spending and liberty parted ways with how it actually voted.
Reporting published October 7, 2026 says the two men running Donald Trump's pro-Trump super PAC were each paid hundreds of thousands of dollars by the government of Republika Srpska, the political home of Milorad Dodik, a man reported across outlets to be Putin's closest European ally. Trump's answer was that they are 'independent people.'
