Resistance Outrage 3.2.26

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/03/01

I’m not interested in partisan takes on the latest strike. I’m thinking about something else — the silence. The muted response. The familiarity.Columbine once shattered us. Now children die in schools, here and abroad, and the reaction feels routine.This is about conditioning. About desensitization. About what it means when tragedy no longer stops us in our tracks.We listen for the bell. This is a public episode.

Resistance Brief 2.26.26

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/02/26

I have been thinking about America as a young nation still trying to grow deep roots. Between political corruption, what we are learning from the Epstein files, and the broader direction of the country, I find myself wondering whether we are strengthening those roots or weakening them. This is a personal reflection about responsibility, accountability, and why participation in primaries still matters. This is a public episode.

Resistance Brief 2.21.26

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/02/21

The Supreme Court ruled some tariffs illegal. That doesn’t mean the damage disappears. Consumers won’t get refunds. Small businesses don’t magically reopen. But big corporations will likely fight to get paid back. That raises a bigger question: who really benefits when policies like this collapse? This video looks at what happens next, and who ends up footing the bill. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit

Repping Resistance

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/02/18

Real representation means more than speeches and photo ops. It means using every tool available to stand up for the people you represent.A new VA rule affecting disability evaluations was published today, and this is exactly the kind of moment where elected officials should be pushing for oversight and accountability.If they will not act, the public needs to remind them who they work for.

Resistance Brief 2.17.26

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/02/17

I grew up when schools helped build real community. Parents knew each other, kids looked out for each other, and we understood we were responsible for the next generation. That feeling is slipping away, and our kids see it. This is a conversation about what we owe them and why strong public schools still matter. This is a public episode.

Resistance Remorse 2.15.26

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/02/15

I wanted Valentine’s Day to just be Valentine’s Day. But Parkland happened on that date. Then Uvalde. Then the children caught up in immigration enforcement. Then unanswered questions about abuse and accountability.This is about one thing: whether we actually protect children, or just say we do. This is a public episode.

Resistance Brief 2.4.26

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/02/04

This piece isn’t about a personality or a punchline. It’s about the Kennedy Center as a federally owned national memorial and what it represents in American civic life. I walk through why this moment is about public institutions, cultural independence, and the role Congress plays in protecting spaces that belong to all of us.This is about looking past the surface story and seeing the system underneath it.

Resistance Endorsement

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/01/29

In 2014 I ran for Congress in Colorado CD4. In 2021 I was redistricted out. In 2031 I’ll probably be redistricted back in. It’s a pattern around here. It’s also why I care about who the congressional representative for that district is. Trisha Calvarese is a homegrown, working-class, proven Democrat who has done more for the district as a candidate and a staffer for the AFL-CIO than any actual Representative in the past 25 years. She’s helped bring jobs. She’s helped rural hospitals navigate grants

Resistance Needs A Plan: P5

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/01/22

In Part 5 of Resistance Needs a Plan, I focus on the line that defines the difference between resistance and the very forces it opposes. Violence doesn’t just cause harm — it erodes legitimacy, weakens moral authority, and strengthens authoritarian narratives. This piece looks at why nonviolence is not passivity, but a strategic choice that preserves power, credibility, and the possibility of a democratic future. This is a public episode.

Resistance Satire 1.13.26

Resistor Vic Podcast ·

2026/01/13

I’m getting a resurgence of comments and emails asking “what can we do?” So I’m working on a series of videos to address the question. The first in the series is going to be about taking care of yourself in these troubling times. One of the ways to do this is to find a reason to laugh. That’s the primary reason for this video.Another reason for this video is, as I’ve stated before, authoritarians hate to be laughed at. My favorite protesters in the country are the frogs and unicorns in Portland

Victoria returned to the pod to update us on her campaign.

This is a short clip from my podcast.I recorded this after realizing that what we’re seeing right now — from government violence to expansionist rhetoric — isn’t just noise or distraction.

Lately, I’ve been attracting a new audience — including trolls repeating very familiar talking points.That’s usually a sign that reach is growing and lines are being drawn.This channel believes in democracy, sovereignty, and the basic idea that invasion is wrong. I don’t debate that here. I state it plainly.Thanks for being part of this community — and for standing on principle.Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 This is a public episode.

This video looks backward to understand what’s happening now.Iran was once a center of learning, culture, and religious coexistence before its democracy was overthrown and its future redirected by outside powers. The consequences of that decision shaped decades of conflict and resentment.Venezuela is in the news today, but the pattern feels familiar.This isn’t an argument about personalities or parties.It’s about history, power, and whether we ever remember how we got here.

In December of 1944, the 101st Airborne Division was surrounded at Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge.Facing overwhelming odds, the German command delivered a formal demand for surrender. Brigadier General Anthony McAuliffe’s response was a single word: Nuts.This piece isn’t about military heroics for their own sake. It’s about the quiet, human decision to refuse surrender when surrender is presented as inevitable — and why that kind of courage still matters. This is a public episode. If you'd
