(Interviews starts at minute 41). /1 soundcloud.com/user-830442635…
Here's my interview with sage Ian Masters @ianmastersmedia on the six stalled criminal cases involving the former president.
We speak with @jimzirin about his @monthly article, “How the Justice Department’s Trump Prosecution Ran Aground” and we get an update on the trials facing Trump which are being delayed to his benefit. on.soundcloud.com/HWZ3T8vqj5nMvf…
Just did an in depth interview with the savvy talk show host @ianmastersmedia on the four Trump criminal prosecutions, and how they have become bogged down in procedural quicksands. Covered the waterfront and totally exhilarating.
Very grateful to @ianmastersmedia for inviting me into a deep-dive conversation about the mess that is Boeing. We discussed the ways airlines & FAA contributed to these problems over many years. And we explored possible solutions. soundcloud.com/user-830442635…
Is the government itself undermining faith in the elections? My first edited piece by @DRBoguslaw for @theintercept. A fine point to ponder.
How Homeland Security is undermining faith in U.S. elections interc.pt/434Fun6 by @DRBoguslaw interc.pt/434Fun6
This will be a week of forensic focus on the public finances. But what of the private finances - those of the political parties that rule in our name? Great to discuss with @ianmastersmedia the big questions in my new book CUCKOOLAND: Where the rich own the truth (1/2)
We speak with @tomburgis about his new book Cuckooland: Where the Rich Own the Truth and how plutocrats not only dominate politics but use their power to own the truth. on.soundcloud.com/99rmm
Grateful to @ianmastersmedia for asking the hard questions about Haiti, and giving time for responses commensurate with the complexity of the issues.
We are joined by @HaitiJustice discussing the situation in Haiti as gangs that control much of the country attacked police stations as a distraction while they freed over 3,700 inmates from prisons. on.soundcloud.com/H4N8d
Thanks Ian
We speak with @jamespmanley about what Senate Majority Leader Schumer describes as an “intense” exchange about aid to Ukraine with everybody in the room piling on telling Mike Johnson to “get it done!” on.soundcloud.com/p6Uz9
Thank you @ianmastersmedia for having me on the show!
We are joined by @TomCollina looking into what might be behind Wednesday’s cryptic warning from the Republican Chair of the House Intelligence Committee of “a serious national security threat” to the U.S. on.soundcloud.com/5qSut
It really is a fabulous issue. Proud to be a part of it.
We speak with @MichaelMechanic about the new issue of @MotherJones out today which explores the American oligarchy in depth. motherjones.com/politics/2024/… on.soundcloud.com/ZvHRD
Yesterday, the Supreme Court set in motion what might just be the biggest judicial power grab since 1803. (That’s a reference to Marbury v. Madison for all history buffs out there.) It’s serious, it’s scary, and @ElieNYC explains it as only he can. bit.ly/48IOvEj
I was pleased to join @ianmastersmedia yesterday to discuss the Supreme Court's oral arguments in Loper Bright/Relentless, cases challenging the future of the bedrock Chevron deference doctrine. You can check out the interview here. backgroundbriefing.org
Went on "Background Briefing with Ian Masters," @ianmastersmedia, an excellent public affairs radio show & podcast, for a segment on "Why Boeing's 737 Max is Grounded and is a Flying Turkey" soundcloud.com/user-830442635…

Me in the LA Times today, on the Trump threat to democracy in 2024: latimes.com/opinion/story/…
It was a pleasure to speak with Ian again, though on this grim subject.
We speak with @BenjaminHett about the frightening similarities between Germany in the early 1930s and the US in 2024 with Trump's followers about a third of the vote, as Hitler’s Nazi Party was in 1933 when German democracy died and dictatorship began. on.soundcloud.com/aSM5j
