The Hartmann Report30 Nov 2018

Thom Hartmann Program - 1 Hour Edition - 11/30/18 - Thom's triple threat: Sherrod Brown, Bernie, and Merkley! And, as Mueller catches the president in significant lies about Russia, seizes Trump's tax documents, and works Manafort and Cohen, Thom looks at the accumulated evidence of Russian business interests stretching back to at least 1988, not to mention the Trump Crime Family's various non-Russian cons, scams, and mafia ties. Brilliant callers add fuel to the fire. And, Bernie Sanders and Jeff Merkley on their Senate and House bills to stop the pharma cartels ripping off Medicare.

Mueller catches Trump in lies about his Russian ties, just the latest in a series of Republican presidents passing off significant lies on the American public. ------ Recently re-elected progressive Senator from Ohio, Sherrod Brown has a plan to keep American manufacturing here despite the Republican tax cut incentivizing moving factories out of the U.S.. ------ Senator Bernie Sanders has a plan to stop the Pharma Cartel from overcharging Medicare for drugs. And, he's outraged about Trump's support for murderous Saudi Arabia, and Trump's other con jobs. Callers express support for the Progressive platform of Bernie, Sherrod Brown, and Merkeley, as well as there disgust with the lying grifter-in-chief's money-making schemes. ------ As Trump's accountant is raided by the FBI, Thom compares Trump's high crimes to Nixon's. How did we get here?- And should we impeach? Callers respond. ------ Thom reads from 'Proof of Collusion' by Seth Abramson, on Trump's early Russian connections, such as possibly sharing a model girlfriend with an up & coming Vladimir Putin. ------ Progressive Senator Jeff Merkley makes the case for his and Bernie's bills to negotiate fair drug prices for Medicare. ------ Thom deftly takes insightful listener calls on subjects raised during the program.
