The Hartmann Report16 Nov 2018

Thom Hartmann Program - 1 Hour Edition - 11/16/18 - Jefferson Smith says we are called in these days to act to bring about a new Progressive Era to restore balance to our democratic nation. But we face 3,749 verified false claims made by Trump since the election, according to the Toronto's Star's Daniel Dale. Will hilarity ensue? And Natalie Jones has been researching the facts too, her article in the Guardian details the top twenty political donors by dollar amount, those who used their real name, anyway. Johhny in Texas says 'no' to Nancy Pelosi, Luke Vargas watches North Korea say 'yes' to rail guns, and Jefferson Smith says 'Thank You' to a number of people.

Jefferson Smith, sitting in for Thom, makes the case it's time for a second Progressive era in America to fight the excessive extreme and very large difference between the wealth of the rich and the poor, and especially the corrupt government the rich are using their wealth to create. What are we ourselves called to do in these days? ------ Trump's lies are growing in degrees and also number. Daniel Dale from the Toronto Star has verified 3,749 false claims made by Trump since he became president. And hilarity ensues. But what do about it? ------ Natalie Jones, a reporter from the Guardian, has extensively researched the twenty top political donors counted by the size of their donations. Some are what you would expect, but some names will surprise you. ------ Callers chime in and Jefferson eggs them on. Hugh from Odessa is worried about RBG's health. He asks if the Harry Reid rule might apply if she dies in 2020? Kim in New York is not excited about Amazon moving in next door. Johhny in Texas definitely think Nancy Pelosi should step back for someone fresh and new. Cliff is still worried about peak oil and global warming. ------ Luke Vargas, chief foreign correspondent for Talk Media News has been watching North Korea's saucy rail-gunning behavior closely. ------ Jefferson Smith says 'Thank You', and you should too.
