Is Donald Trump a threat to our Republic? Thom powerfully lays out the specifics on how Trump's deliberate defiance of the constitution fits in with his history of a grifter who thinks the law doesn't apply to him. ~~~ Can Donald Trump and Paul Ryan escape justice by delaying the Mueller investigation, Bill Barr's contempt of court charge, and other legal issues until after the 2020 Election? Scary thought- but worse is what kind of permanent damage Donald Trump and the Republicans can do if justice is not served. Paul S. Ryan joins us to discuss how we can hold Trump accountable while we still have a democracy to do so. ~~~ What powers do the Capitol police hold? What presidents have defied the Supreme Court and Congress? Without politicians who put country above party, how can the system of checks and balances survive? Does the constitution have an Achilles' heal? Ed in California has an idea for a fix. ~~~ Thom continues his thoughts on the risk to the fate and future of America as a functioning Republic under the mismanagement of Trump. Is he running America's finances as an extension of his schemes? Trump continues to take actions typical of authoritarian rulers, from cutting power to the Venezuelan Embassy to pulling press passes of reporters who criticize the president. And with the 24/7 Fox News-Murdoch-hate radio propaganda backing him up, many Americans don't even know what is happening. ~~~ Bob Ney with Talk Media News drops in with the inside story of the Trump Jr. subpoena fight. ~~~ Pulitizer prize winning journalist David Cay Johnston- veteran Trump-watcher of many years- has the dirt on the possible cocaine trafficking behind Trump's newly revealed tax returns.
