Jennifer Welch & Angie Sullivan

Bible Belt natives and progressive podcasters, Jennifer Welch and Angie “Pumps” Sullivan share how they *really feel* about political news. Their comedic, feel-good takes drop daily, possibly more when sh*t really hits the fan.

True80% confidence7 sourcesAug 10, 2026AIPAC opposed President Obama's Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).Said by BMultiple sources, including AIPAC's own statement, confirm AIPAC opposed Obama's 2015 JCPOA, with Wikipedia calling it a leading opponent and Haaretz calling it perhaps the most significant political avatar for opposition. The post's 'APAC' is evidently a typo for AIPAC, and the 'chief opposition' wording is supported by the Haaretz characterization.True97% confidence5 sourcesAug 10, 2026Mike Rogers served in Congress.Said by BMultiple primary and tier1 sources, including the U.S. House history office and AP, confirm Mike Rogers served in Congress from January 2001 to January 2015 (seven terms, representing Michigan's 8th district). The claim's past-tense statement is fully supported and the extraction faithfully reflects the post's reference to his time in Congress.True90% confidence7 sourcesAug 10, 2026Abdul El-Sayed is a doctor.El-Sayed holds an MD (doctor of medicine) from Columbia University and a DPhil in public health from Oxford, as PolitiFact, Bridge Michigan, Britannica and USA Today all report, so he is a doctor in the degree sense. He has never been licensed to practice medicine or completed a residency, so calling himself a 'physician' is contested, but that does not undo the 'doctor' claim; the claim matches the post's own 'Dr. Abdul El-Sayed' wording.True90% confidence4 sourcesAug 10, 2026Jennifer Welch authored a book titled Not Today, Fascists.Multiple sources show Jennifer Welch, co-host of the I've Had It podcast, wrote a book titled "Not Today, Fascists," so the claim is supported. The book's official release was October 6, 2026, after the August 10, 2026 post, but it was already available for pre-order then, which matches the post, and the authorship claim holds as of the posting date.
