Podcast appearances and mentions of Amy Klobuchar

Tonight on The Last Word: Donald Trump's global tariffs are blocked by a federal trade court. And new corruption concerns rise as Trump profits from his office and pardons political allies. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Kenneth Vogel, and Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse join Lawrence O'Donnell.

Newt talks with Senator Ted Cruz, co-sponsor of the bill and Scott Berkowitz, Founder and President RAINN about the Take It Down Act, signed into law by President Donald Trump this week. The Take It Down Act is a bipartisan effort aimed at combating the distribution of non-consensual intimate imagery, including AI-generated deep fakes. Introduced by Senators Ted Cruz and Amy Klobuchar, the legislation imposes stricter penalties for such actions and mandates that websites and social media platforms remove offending content within 48 hours of notification by victims. The Act was inspired by cases like that of Elliston Berry, a teenager whose AI-generated deep fake image was circulated without her consent, highlighting the urgent need for legal protection against such abuses. The law passed with overwhelming support in Congress, reflecting a rare moment of bipartisan agreement. The involvement of First Lady Melania Trump, who has advocated for online safety, was instrumental in elevating the issue and expediting the legislative process. The Act is seen as a significant step in addressing the growing problem of tech-enabled sexual abuse, with further legislation anticipated to protect children online. The initiative also underscores the role of organizations like RAINN in supporting victims and advocating for policy changes to combat sexual violence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Horrific Murder in Washington, D.C.: A tragic double homicide near the Israeli embassy involving two Jewish victims, Sarah Milgram and Jerone Leshinsky, allegedly targeted due to antisemitic hatred. The suspect, Elias Rodriguez, is described as a radical leftist who shouted pro-Palestinian slogans during the attack. The discussion expands into the rise of antisemitism on college campuses and the broader societal implications. No Tax on Tips Legislation: Senator Cruz celebrates the unanimous Senate passage (100–0) of his bill to eliminate federal taxes on tips. The bill, inspired by a conversation Donald Trump had with a waitress, is framed as a win for blue-collar workers and a bipartisan success. Take It Down Act Signed into Law: President Trump signs into law the Take It Down Act, co-authored by Cruz and Senator Amy Klobuchar. The law criminalizes the distribution of non-consensual explicit images, including AI-generated deepfakes, and mandates tech platforms to remove such content upon request. The story of Elliston Barry, a teenage victim of deepfake abuse, is highlighted as a catalyst for the legislation.

This week, the legislative session is over, but they'll be back for a special session! And, I discuss a critical new case filed by True North Legal and Alliance Defending Freedom. Finally, we talk about the presidential ambitions of three Minnesotans: Dean Phillips, Amy Klobuchar, and Tim Walz.

In the latest episode of the American Experiment Podcast, we kick things off in the studio, where Grace, Kathryn, and Bill react to Tim Walz's VIRAL clip comparing ICE to the Gestapo during his U of M Law School commencement address.Next, the U of M's Anti-Racism Center is shutting down—and the reason might surprise you.Later, they call out House DFLers for claiming—with a straight face—that they've worked to prevent fraud in Minnesota for YEARS. Just hours later, those same lawmakers voted against a bill designed to help do exactly that.Finally, Grace, Kathryn, and the team are live from Minneapolis at our Annual Dinner Gala, where Scott Jennings of CNN joins the podcast in person. He reacts to clips—including one of Walz claiming he was on the 2024 ticket because he can “code talk.” You won't want to miss Scott's take.Be sure to LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE so you never miss an episode of the American Experiment Podcast!00:00 - Welcome Back!01:52 - Walz: ICE = Gestapo?!?09:22 - U of M "Anti-Racism Center" is CLOSING13:21 - An Update from the Legislature on Budget Negotiations27:31 - LIVE with SCOTT JENNINGS35:06 - Walz : I can "code talk" football and trucks to white guys37:38 - Klobuchar: "Every time Pres.

The Ag-Net News Hour Hosts, Lorrie Boyer and Nick Papagni, “The Ag Meter,” highlight the upcoming Mother's Day by saying that it is one of the biggest days when it comes to strawberry sales. They then talk about the potential de-escalation of U.S.-China trade tensions, with key meetings in Switzerland. They noted China's economic stimulus and the U.S.'s daily tariff earnings of $192 million, contrasting with the Biden administration's losses. The EU-U.S. trade deal is nearing completion. The USDA is preparing to offer $21 billion in disaster aid by the end of the month. Brooke Rollins' efforts to prioritize U.S. farmers over international aid were praised, contrasting with the previous administration's actions. The CME Group/Purdue University Ag Economy Barometer rose to 141, the highest since December 2021, with a future expectation index of 152. The farm financial performance index fell slightly to 101, while the farm capital investment index rose to 114. Higher input costs remain the top concern for farmers, with 10% now worried about input availability. Tariffs are seen as potentially beneficial in the long run, with 56% expecting reduced farm income in 2025. Senator Amy Klobuchar raised concerns about bottlenecking and privacy issues due to an extra layer of review for agency loans over $500,000. The weekly Almond Update, sponsored by the Almond Board of California, features Craig Durr, Vice President of Global Marketing and Sales at Campos Brothers Farms. Durr discusses the almond industry's evolution, emphasizing the need to market almonds globally and adapt to price volatility. He highlights the shift from promoting almonds as ingredients to focusing on snack consumption to stabilize demand. Durr also notes the industry's growth from a billion to two billion pounds, stressing the importance of a holistic, global approach. The segment concludes with a light-hearted discussion about Mother's Day and Father's Day.

Tonight on The Last Word: Donald Trump says kids might have “two dolls instead of 30” in response to tariffs. Also, The New York Times reports a declassified memo shows U.S. intelligence agencies rejected the Trump administration's rationale for deportations. And Trump says “I don't know” when asked if he needs to uphold the Constitution. Sen. Amy Klobuchar and Andrew Weissmann join Lawrence O'Donnell.

Tonight on The Last Word: Americans sour on Donald Trump's tariffs and his handling of the economy. Also, the Trump tariff chaos upends a Canadian election. Plus, Trump fails to deliver his promised end to Vladimir Putin's war. And Democrats look to campaign on the chaos of Trump's first 100 days in office. Catherine Rampell, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Amb. Michael McFaul, and Rep. Angie Craig join Lawrence O'Donnell.

On the eve of 100 days in office, Anderson speaks to Sen. Amy Klobuchar about President Trump's agenda and the Democrats' response or lack thereof, so far. Plus, Russia announces they'll have a brief ceasefire in Ukraine, but it's not quite what it sounds. CNN's Matthew Chance has the latest. Learn more about your ad choices.

We open with a statement from Spain that seems to point to a failure of their green tech on the solar side that led to the catastrophic shutdown of their entire power grid. In Canada, they have decided to elect the liberal Mark Carney who believes they can continue on the world economic stage without being a partner with the United States. Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) claims everything is up under Trump's first 100 days, but that seems to be more about wishful thinking rather than reality. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about Amazon's decision to add a “tariff” line to all sales. She accurately calls it political, but before the story can last even a few hours, a call from Donald Trump to Jeff Bezos seems to have killed that idea. At the same time, Wal-Mart is making a push to help small-to-mid sized American companies get their products on their shelves. Now, to the slow-walking Republicans in the House and Senate. I address my frustrations, but am still prepared to give it more time given some insider information from the White House and the significance of wanting to pass the “big beautiful bill” on Independence Day. Seems Mayor Bowser (D-D.C.) might be in some hot water with a trip she made to Qatar in 2023. Another woman thinks she knows the workaround for student debt and tells us how smart she is about it. Finally, DOGE's fixes to the Treasury payment system just went into effect and only one week in, has stopped $335,000,000.00 dollars in payments missing required information.

On this week's episode of 'The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart': The first 100 days. As President Trump nears that milestone, his poll numbers plummet in ways we've never seen before, with his approval rating lower than any other president at this point in their tenure. Sen. Amy Klobuchar and Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove join in studio fresh from a protest on Capitol Hill over the Trump Agenda. What they expect from Trump in the next 100 days and from Congress when they return to work next week. Lessons Learned. Jon Meacham is here with a look at how history will record this moment and how Trump compares to his predecessors. And on our last show, a fan favorite returns. America's Aunt, my Aunt Gloria, is back to give us her unique take on everything that's going on. All that and more on the final episode of “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.” 

First, Ralph welcomes Washington Post tech journalist Faiz Siddiqui to discuss his new book "Hubris Maximus: The Shattering of Elon Musk." Then, our resident legal expert Bruce Fein stops by to explain how Elon Musk and DOGE are breaking the law. Finally, David picks up our interview with Ralph about Ralph's new book "Civic Self-Respect."Faiz Siddiqui is a technology journalist who writes for the Washington Post and has covered companies such as Tesla, Uber, and Twitter (now X) for the Business Desk. His reporting has focused on transportation, social media and government transformation, among other issues. He is the author of Hubris Maximus: The Shattering of Elon Musk (excerpted here).Over and over throughout this book, there's this recurring theme of victimhood, or at least Elon feeling like his back is against the wall. And why? For what? He and his fans felt they were doing the right things, and yet they were being scrutinized and punished for it.Faiz SiddiquiIn the wake of many Facebook scandals, many Uber scandals, Tesla was the company to work for. Elon was the person to work for. There was no figure as magnetic, who inspired people in the way that Elon did. So recruiting was a strong suit of that company. And the pitch was: come here and change the world.Faiz SiddiquiI think what this book brings is a healthy dose of reality and skepticism… that so far has been lacking from the overall conversation around Musk. And what I you'll find is (I hope you'll find) that you can identify with some of the folks in the book who were lured in by the promises (or just enamored by the guy and what he might be able to bring to society if his goals were ultimately realized) but then ended up feeling disappointed or feeling like—hey, this guy was not all he was cracked up to be. Even if the goals were noble, even if the ambitions were the right ones, the ends might not have justified the means. And so I want people to find, ideally, that their understanding of one of the most powerful people in society today is enriched.Faiz SiddiquiBruce Fein is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on international law. Mr. Fein was Associate Deputy Attorney General under Ronald Reagan and he is the author of Constitutional Peril: The Life and Death Struggle for Our Constitution and Democracy, and American Empire: Before the Fall.[Elon Musk is] just a walking violation of the federal code.Bruce FeinThere's nowhere to go but up in terms of being a smart consumer. Unfortunately, our Elementary and high schools don't teach consumer skills (they prefer to teach computer skills) and consumer skills result in what is, in effect, a pay raise.Ralph NaderAdam Smith once said many centuries ago that the purpose of production is consumption. And if consumption is informed and feeds back, it can lead to a high-quality economy. It can lead to more integrity to your consumer dollar and to your health and safety. It can lead to less environmental damage. It could lead to stronger regulation of product defects and services that are harmful. It's sort of a bottom-up economic democracy.Ralph NaderComplexity is a tool of power. Complex tax regulations are often blamed on the federal bureaucracy. No, it's the corporate tax lawyers.Ralph NaderNews 4/25/251. On Monday, April 21st, Vatican News announced the death of Pope Francis. This came just one day after Easter Sunday, when Francis met with Vice-President JD Vance. The day prior, Francis had snubbed the VP, sending in his place Cardinal Pietro Parolintoto to “deliver a lecture on compassion,” per the Daily Beast. Pope Francis led the Catholic Church since 2013 and during his tenure sought to move the church in a vastly more progressive direction – preaching against capitalism's destruction of the environment, advocating for abolition of the death penalty and greater acceptance for LGBTQ Catholics within the church, and expanding the reach of the church into non-traditional areas such as Mongolia among many other initiatives. This won him the admiration of many around the world, but also drew the ire of the conservative clergy, particularly in the United States. Francis was the first Jesuit Pope and the first Pope to hail from the New World. Senior churchmen will now assemble to elect a new pope. This conclave is expected to be contentious, with progressives seeking to consolidate Francis' reforms, while the conservatives see an opening to take back the formal organs of the church.2. Instead of death, our next story concerns birth. Noor Abdalla – wife of Mahmoud Khalil, the Palestinian Columbia University student currently being held by ICE in Louisiana – gave birth to their son on Monday. According to a statement by Abdalla, reported by Arya Sundaram of WNYC, ICE denied a request for Khalil to be temporarily released to meet their son, a “purposeful decision by ICE to make [her], Mahmoud, and our son suffer.” Later in this statement, Abdalla writes, “I will continue to fight every day for Mahmoud to come home to us. I know when Mahmoud is freed, he will show our son how to be brave, thoughtful, and compassionate just like his dad.” Khalil's case continues to wind its way through the courts; the result of this case will have significant ramifications for the Trump administration's ability to remove individuals with legal status on the basis of political speech.3. In an encouraging sign, more and more congressional Democrats are getting personally involved in cases of Trump administration overreach on immigration. In addition to Senator Chris Van Hollen's highly-publicized visit to El Salvador, TruthOut reports that Senator Peter Welch met with Mohsen Mahdawi, the Columbia University student entrapped with a false citizenship test, in Vermont. Meanwhile Cape Cod Times reports that on April 22nd, Senator Ed Markey and Representatives Ayanna Pressley and Jim McGovern of Massachusetts – along with Democratic members of the House Troy Carter and Bennie Thompson – traveled to a Louisiana detention facility to demand the release of Rümeysa Öztürk, the Tufts University grad student who was abducted off the street last month by masked ICE agents. This delegation met with Öztürk herself, as well as Mahmoud Khalil. And CBS reports Representatives Robert Garcia, Maxwell Frost, Yassamin Ansari and Maxine Dexter traveled to El Salvador as well, keeping pressure up regarding the Kilmar Garcia case. Still, hundreds of immigrants of varying status have been deported to the ominous and shadowy CECOT prison camp in El Salvador without due process since Trump began this mass deportation campaign.4. In more troubling Congressional news, Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley of Iowa wrote a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel on April 16th calling for investigations into the progressive activist group CodePink as well as the New York City cultural center known as the People's Forum. This letter is almost textbook McCarthyite red-baiting, claiming CodePink and the People's Forum are nothing more than mouthpieces for the Chinese Communist Party, thereby violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act. Beyond the fact that these groups are engaging in nothing more than constitutionally protected political speech, it is clear from the citations within the letter that they are targeting these groups because of their pro-Palestine positions. This is just another escalation in the Orwellian suppression of free-speech critical of the Israel's illegal occupation. Unfortunately, just as with McCarthyism itself, we cannot count on congressional Democrats to go to bat for the free speech rights of the Left.5. In a win for consumers, Bloomberg reports Airbnb announced it will now display the total price of stays – including all fees – to comply with a Federal Trade Commission rule set to go into effect next month. Many worried that the FTC would rescind this rule with the changing of the administration, but for now at least, the Trump FTC seems poised to keep it. This new rule is expected to “nudge hosts to lower their cleaning fees to make rentals more affordable, as the sometimes-exorbitant fees have become a key reason why some customers preferred hotels over Airbnb.”6. Another positive move is that the Trump Department of Justice has proceeded with an anti-trust case against Google's advertising technology, or “adtech.” On April 17th, a judge found Google liable for “willfully acquiring and maintaining monopoly power,” in two markets for online advertising technology, per Reuters. This follows a similar judgment against Google regarding a monopoly on search, which is only amplified by its adoption of AI. Another trial will determine the remedy for this monopoly, which could include Google being forced to sell off aspects of its business. According to this report, “Google has previously explored selling its ad exchange to appease European antitrust regulators.” Senator Amy Klobuchar, former chair of the antitrust subcommittee, called the ruling “a big win for consumers, small businesses, and content creators that will open digital markets to more innovation and lower prices.”7. On the other hand, Public Citizen's Rick Claypool reports, “58 corporations facing federal investigations & enforcement lawsuits collectively gave $50 million to Trump's inaugural fund. Cases against 11 of these corporations have already been dismissed or withdrawn, and 6 have been halted.” More granular information about each of these enforcement actions is available through Public Citizen's Corporate Enforcement Tracker database, but the big picture is clear: If a corporation wants the government off its back, all they have to do is make a handsome contribution. The Trump administration is pay-to-play and open for business.8. In another instance of the administration tying the hands of key federal regulators, the Food and Drug Administration will “End its Routine Food Safety Inspections,” according to the National Public Health Information Coalition. The FDA plans to “shift most…food safety inspections to state and local agencies.” While some food inspections are conducted at the state and local level, public health advocates are raising concerns about “oversight and consistency.” According to CBS, these plans have not been finalized.9. Turning to the very worst part of this administration, NOTUS reports “The DOGE website, the only public accounting of Elon Musk and President Donald Trump's attempts to reduce federal government spending…[has posted]…revisions that suggest DOGE was previously overstating its savings by hundreds of millions of dollars.” These stunning, if not altogether surprising, overestimations are staggering in scale. “On Tuesday [April 15th] alone, DOGE removed around $962 million in previously claimed cuts and altered hundreds of others to boost individual items' purported ‘savings' values.” The incompetence of DOGE has led Musk to reduce the target goal of spending cuts, down from $1 trillion to just $150 billion – a drop in the bucket when it comes to federal spending and certainly not worth the evisceration of Social Security and other programs these cuts have entailed.10. Finally, in more bad news for Elon Musk, Reuters reports the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is tightening electric vehicle battery safety standards, specifically to “ensure…batteries won't catch fire or explode.” This is quite a humble regulatory goal. However, this new regulation could spell disaster for Tesla. According to Tesla-fire.com, there have been 232 confirmed cases of Tesla fires and “83 Fatalities Involving a Tesla Car Fire.” If I were a Chinese EV regulator, I would be wary of allowing Tesla vehicles on the roads. But that's just me.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

In this explosive breakdown, we explore the rising power of district court judges who are allegedly overstepping constitutional boundaries by weaponizing nationwide injunctions and appointing personal prosecutors to target Trump administration officials. From defunding sanctuary cities to voter ID mandates and DEI funding bans, nearly every Trump policy faces judicial pushback. Featuring shocking statements by Senator Amy Klobuchar and CNN's stunned reaction, this episode reveals what some are calling a creeping judicial oligarchy—a civil war without the shooting.

Tonight on The Last Word: The stock market is calmer after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told investors a trade war is not “sustainable.” Also, the White House says Donald Trump “strongly stands” behind Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Plus, three prosecutors on the Eric Adams corruption case resign rather than admit to “wrongdoing.” And Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens launches her Senate bid in Michigan. Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Rep.

Have you ever been deepfaked? Or maybe this is just a new fear – that photos of you end up online that are you – but not really you? What would you do? For an increasing number of people – especially women – this is becoming a reality. So much so that a recent bill in Congress called the “Take It Down” Act has found some incredibly rare bipartisan support. The bill is sponsored by republican Senator Ted Cruz and democrat Senator Amy Klobuchar – making it illegal to post explicit deepfakes – First Lady Melania Trump has also been a vocal supporter. But the thing is, it isn't law yet and… it might not be enough. A new podcast called Levittown, from Bloomberg and Kaleidoscope Podcasts, takes listeners on a sort of cyber thriller for the AI age. It's the story of a bunch of young women in the suburbs of Long Island who find naked fakes of themselves online and when told there's nothing they can do about it – set out to catch the perpetrator. This ends up connecting them to a web of online vigilantes – and cyber criminals taking advantage of a justice system not ready for the reality of AI. Endless Thread brings you the first episode in this series. If you like what you hear – find Levittown wherever you like to get your podcasts to listen to the full series.
