Is American Politics Just Corrupt?

2/17/2025
It’s no secret what many of you think about American politics—corruption runs deep, politicians put their own families at risk, and most people have no idea what their local representatives even do. They question why only a certain educational degree seems to ‘qualify’ someone for office when intelligence isn’t limited to one field. Today, the Gargs unravel the scary realities of American politics and navigate the challenge of keeping the family intact with clashing political views. BOOK YOUR TICKET TODAY!
