20240416 Run As If Our Democracy Depends On It (It Does) on the Nicole Sandler Show

Have you ever thought about running for office? Now would probably be a good time to do so.

It’s April 15. Have you done your taxes yet? Remember when TFG was in office and he told us we’d be filling out our taxes on a postcard? Yeah, not so much. But he’s in a Manhattan courtroom today as his first criminal trial begins… And of course, Jonathan Larsen is here with the fucking…

I am honored that the independent national security journalist Marcy Wheeler, whose original reporting you can find at emptywheel.net, joins me on my show every Friday for an hour-long discussion of the news that matters and, for the most part, hasn’t been reported accurately or with enough urgency elsewhere.

20240410 Back to 1864 & 2022 with Bill Baird on Birth Control & Abortion on the Nicole Sandler Show

I’m new to Arizona. We moved here from Florida for a number of reasons, chief among them was the fact that AZ was trending bluer while FL has become Fascist Central. Well, yesterday Arizona’s Supreme Court reinstated a law that was in effect until 1973 when Roe v Wade came into effect and legalized a…

Thursdays with Howie Klein (and gout?!?!) on the Nicole Sandler Show

It’s a Thursday, so Howie Klein takes a weekly break from writing at DownWithTyranny.com and vetting the best candidates for the Blue America PAC to support. There’s no shortage of topics to discuss today, but I’m running late as I spent the morning at the doctors office and urgent care trying to figure out what’s…

20240403 Justice or Injustice with Lisa Graves on the Nicole Sandler Show

If you’re thinking that in the US, all may theoretically be created equal, but we’re sure not treated equally under the law.
