  • Progressive extremism

    Let’s face it, aside from the diehard progressives, there’s no other content for anyone else on the show.

Shows with regular guest appearances are out dated and have been for a ... more

    I love the way you never give up, even when I do. You give me a reason to go on. My daughter, wonderful son- in- law and two grandsweeties are going to actually starve if we don’t get one of them a job soon. Xmas is canceled. But you give me hope somehow. Thank you for being there.

People can organize small trusted groups, engage in strategic nonviolent actions like boycotts and legislative advocacy, work within institutions, and build networks that sustain civil rights protections over time.
How to Be a Dissident in These Ugly Times (with Julia Angwin & Ami Fields-Meyer)

FOIA 'TERRORIST' TURNS MOVIE PRODUCER- JASON LEOPOLD GUESTS
Q: What did you learn that wasn't shown in the documentary or the film?
The documents showed more extensive financial crime, including money laundering schemes and the extent of the operations beyond what was portrayed, as well as how Belfort interacted with authorities and the broader network involved.
FOIA 'TERRORIST' TURNS MOVIE PRODUCER- JASON LEOPOLD GUESTS
Q: How did you come to work on this project and what did the FOIA process reveal?
I filed a FOIA request with the FBI after the movie came out and eventually sued for access, which yielded thousands of pages that provided concrete insight into the investigation and prosecution beyond what the film depicted.
The Day SCOTUS Hit Us with Citizens United (and Killed Air America Too!)
Q: What steps are being taken to respond to this ruling?
A coalition with organizations like Public Citizen and Center for Corporate Policy, plus a push for a constitutional amendment and public financing, is being organized via freesppeechforpeople.org with hearings and legislative efforts in Congress and states.
