DOING THE PEOPLE'S BUSINESS (IN WINE CAVES)

Thom Hartmann

In the wake of the 50-48 Senate vote to put Republican operative Brett Kavanaugh on the supreme court, Thom breaks down the fallout from the vote for Heidi Heitkamp and Joe Manchin. Thom touches on Mike Pence and Columbus Day. And then, Brett Kavanaugh's multiple swearing ins concrete the majority conservative Supreme Court, but does that mean we're losing? Will the November election challenge or support the strategy that wealthy white men are using to hang on to their power? Trumps does his bit using his enormous talent for lying.----Thom reads from 'Warrior Is' by Harley L. Zephier and Robin L. Zephier. ----- Listener Laura engages Thom as to what the conservatives' next moves will be, and how progressives should respond. ----- Thom looks at the bigger picture of the political battle for women's rights. ----- Congressman Bob Ney of Talk Media News touches on two stories of people abducted by their governments. ----- Thom continues the thread of conservative's cynical strategy to get power. Could a one-vote margin, and the activation of women's outrage actually be a win for progressives? -----  Listener Heather asks what would happen if the Democrats leaked the final FBI investigation of nine of Kavanaugh's old friends. Thom thinks this is not the end of something, but the beginning of something. ----- Thom describes how the Powell memo has led to the modern conservative strategy, and touches again on how it's all about white elite holding on to power. Trump is helping with his blatant lies- 'every single Democrat has signed the Open Borders bill', that doesn't exist. And other lies that have become normalized. ----- Bulgarian journalist raped and murdered for exposing corruption in Bulgaria. ----- Listener Richard takes us back to the Powell memo, its implementation, and the corporate bent of mainstream media. ----- Conservatives and what they want - to neuter, or even punish the media, as well as those who dare to publicly challenge the elite. Could libel laws be used to silence the uppity? ----- More on bias in the corporate media. ----- Caller John calls out the hypocrisy of some Christians, and draws a line from there to the Trumpist Republican culture of corruption. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The US Was Birthed out of a Protest of Big Corporations, So Why Do Libertarians Want More of them? - Podcast Tease

Thom wonders whether having Hunter Biden testify before Congress might actually help a Democrat be elected to president- and could impeaching Trump also make a Republican win more likely in the form of President Pence? But will Trump's threat to have Republican Senators' heads "on a pike" keep the jury in line? Are some of Trump supporters finally starting to peal off as the corruption becomes more obvious? And is Trump already working closely with China's President Xi to manufacture new dirt on Biden to release just before the election? And we hear from Progressive Leader Mark Pocan for his views on the many questions facing Congress.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
