Part 1:
We talk with Bob Lord, Sr VP, Tax Policy, of Patriotic Millionaires, and his colleague, Kenny Stencil, Sr. Researcher of the Revolving Door Project.
We discuss how tax policy has been influenced by the very rich to benefit themselves. We also discuss the outrageous and unfair sentence handed down to Charles Littlejohn, who leaked Trump's tax information.
freecharleslittlejohn.com, a web site to show protest at this sentence.
Part 2:
We talk with Danielle Lee Thomson, Research Manager for CIP election Rumor Research Team.
We discuss with Danielle her latest paper, which describes how the right wing uses theatrics, particularly the tools of IMPROV, to present their their talking points. This strategy of using alternative media, instead of conventional news channels is very effective, because it is presented as entertainment, and viewers do not think as critically of the message as a result. Truth fragments are distorted to present their message.
