Ask a question

Theater

Do you think politics is just theater? And if so, are you comfortable criticizing politicians knowing that it’s like wrestling.!? Having a conversation about something that isn’t “real”

Just a Comment

Its not my intention to call you out, this is not important, this is definitely not a question that should be featured in the AMA. I'm just not on Twitter and dont know where else to get a line on you. But I'm a subscriber and I love what you're doing and listen to every episode. Okay so Saagar... again, I don't care, and I only offer this as a suggestion, but are cognizant of how often you use the phrase, "in order to" when just, "to" is actually more linguistically appropriate? I take it you do it as a way to pause and gather your thoughts because you think so fast, sort of like a classier "um," (or "naga" in Madarin like that professor got fired for) but "in order to" is NOT a direct substitute for "to." If there is "X in order to Y," that means that X is an operation that is a prerequisite of Y. It means X facilitates Y. That is a very special case of "to." All "to"s are not interchangeable with "in order to." Almost every episode you say things like, "his reaction, in order to her comments was..." Apparently I'm not the only one to notice. I just googled and found this: https://www.reddit.com/r/BreakingPoints/comments/r0gm29/whenever_in_order_to_saagar_enjeti/ Again, not important, but I know you are a perfectionist, and... bro, its kinda weird.

Ghouls in government

Krystal you talk about the ghouls on Wall St. but what about the ghouls in government. There are just as many thieves in government than there are on Wall St. and you want them to control the flow of oil? The only thing you’ll accomplish with a nationalization of the oil supply is making the ghouls in government rich.

Senate and Majority Rule

I often hear people argue that the Senate is anti-democratic and should be disbanded. Krystal often says that the Senate and electoral collage stands in the way of what the majority of Americans want. Isn't that the purpose of the Senate to protect against majority rule? I seldom hear the counter argument as to why majority rule would be hazardous to the country.

Details about future events

You mention you plan to plan events "all across the country". Could you give us more detail? Where, when? And do you plan on selling VIP tickets? Love your show, we got your back.
