The Siren is a creator led media network founded to combat fascism and defend the values of American democracy through the analysis and discussion of current events and calls to action.
Through fearless reporting, bold truth-telling, and unapologetic calls to action, we refuse to sit back while our rights are gutted, our voices are silenced, and our future is auctioned off to the highest bidder.
Instead, we’re calling out the abuse of power and relentless attacks on our democracy wherever they appear. But it’s not enough to just talk about what’s going on. This moment demands going a step further.
The goal of The Siren is not just to analyze the news, but to ignite action.
We turn outrage into direction. We organize calls to stop the passing of dangerous legislation. We spotlight the next generation of Democratic leadership. All while mobilizing around the most pressing issues of our time.
We don’t both-sides tyranny. We expose it and we fight it.

Well folks, Over a week of the Trump shutdown and Republicans are still refusing to come into work. They’ve taken a long vacation in the middle of a government shutdown and are outright refusing to work with Democrats on keeping healthcare costs down, protecting Medicaid, and releasing the Epstein files. In fact, Speaker Mike Johnson said today that he will not swear in Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva, who is the last vote necessary on the Epstein Files discharge petition.
On this episode of The Siren Podcast, Jo is joined by Joe Gallina from Call to Activism, Brooklyn Dad Defiant, and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries. Leader Jeffries earlier today got into a sparring match with Republican Rep. Mike Lawler on Lawler’s tax breaks for billionaires. As Leader Jeffries told us (in his unfiltered breakdown of the incident), “I think he thought he was confronting Beltway Hakeem. Well, he saw Brooklyn Hakeem.”
The panel discusses the urgent fight from Democrats to protect Medicaid for Americans and keep healthcare costs down. The conversation also ventured into why so many hospitals are closing in Republican led districts across the country, the Republican lie that Democrats are fighting for illegal immigrants to get healthcare, and just how far Democrats are willing to go in this shutdown fight.
