There's a lot going on today. We do have a guest in the second half hour of the show. Catherine Coleman Flowers is one of the leading environmental activists of our time. Her new book, HOLY GROUND: ON ACTIVISM, ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE, AND FINDING HOPE, is just released. And the timing couldn't be better because we can certainly use some hope right about now. I almost canceled today's show as I debated going to the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix to participate in today's 50501 "Build the Resistance" protests. I'll explain on the show why I opted not to go today.. But the more research I've done into it, the more grassroots it appears to be, and I'm so happy about that. We got calls from Joe who went to the CA state capitol in Sacramento, and Rebecca who went in Idaho, and both reported really great experiences. So I'm thrilled that I found a website that's now serving as a central hub for a very grassroots movement. It's at BuildTheResistance.org. With the horrific pronouncements and plans coming from the mouth of our would-be dictator, more than ever, despair is not an option. That's one of my constant mantras these days as I walk the tightrope between anxiety, depression and the future.

Tune in as I continue my conversation with Dr. Bobbi Lancaster, a family physician, champion golfer, and transgender advocate, who joins us alongside Sasha Graham, host of the "Sports Will Save Us All" podcast.

Bobbi shares her experiences speaking at prestigious universities, serving on the national board of the Human Rights Campaign, and the power of storytelling in transforming lives. Inspired by Elie Wiesel's legacy, Bobbi touches on the power of speaking out against injustice and the power of a single individual to enact change.

Today, I'm sitting down with Dr. Bobbi Lancaster, a family physician, champion golfer, and transgender advocate, who joins us alongside Sasha Graham, host of the "Sports Will Save Us All" podcast. Together, we traverse the complexities of gender identity in the sporting world and the personal hurdles Bobbi had to overcome on her golf journey. From her formative years as a natural-born athlete to her life-changing decision to transition, Bobbi's story challenges the preconceived notions of identity and fairness in competitive sports. We also confront the unique hurdles that come with aging as an athlete, alongside ethical dilemmas concerning transgender golfers competing in championships post-transition. Bobbi's candid reflection on her journey, from living a double life to the eventual embrace of her identity, is a heartfelt and inspiring testament to the power of authenticity.  About Bobbi Lancaster: Bobbi Lancaster is a family physician, champion golfer, author, human rights advocate, and motivational speaker.

1st Lieutenant Frank Luke Jr. served in the Army in World War I as a pilot. He quickly gained a reputation as being arrogant and overconfident, but he had the skills to back it up. He scored 18 aerial victories in under three weeks, mostly on unsanctioned missions. His friendship to his group commander allowed him to fly as he pleased, consequence free.  On September 29th, 1918, after almost being grounded by his squad commander, Luke left on another solo flight, destroying three German observation balloons. What happened after became subject exaggeration and speculation for decades to come. Originally, it was thought that Luke fought 10 German planes, destroying two of them before being shot down himself, and then died in a gunfight on the ground with German soldiers. For this he was awarded the Medal of Honor. Decades later in 2008, thanks to archeological digs, interviews with descendants of witnesses, reviewing unpublished material, and analyzing evidence, the truth was finally revealed. After destroying three German observation balloons, Luke had circled back to head home, but was down by a German machine gun. He crash landed and attempted to escape on foot, but succumbed to his injuries.  Luke was reburied at the Meuse-Argonne Cemetery. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross and the Italian War Cross, in addition to being the first airman ever awarded the Medal of Honor. He's been commemorated with a statue that stands at the Arizona State Capitol, and by Luke Air Force Base, which was named after him. To this day, Luke's Medal of Honor citation has never been updated to reflect the full picture.

Jeff Taylor was a stock options trader on Wall Street. Just years later drugs led to his living under a bush in Phoenix. He battled addictions, the law, but was given a second chance when attending The Salvation Army treatment program which he credits with saving his life. He was so impassioned about his journey out of prison and into life, that he walked into the Arizona State Capitol and began talking to legislators, resulting in the passage of a bill that has resulted in a 60% reduction in recidivism. Then a biking accident and the ensuing pain pills led him back into addiction. But each time he fell, he got back up. Today, Jeff is changing the world in positive ways, using his skills and experience as a lobbyist/advocate for prison reform, better community-police relations, child safety, the homeless, drug addicted, and inmate diversion and treatment programs.

Today's fourth hearing focused on how Trump corruptly pressured state legislators and election officials to change election results — leaning on state officials to alter the vote and to create slates of fake electors pledged to Trump — and their unwillingness to go along with Trump. But under the surface of today's hearing and its revelations lurks the civil war that Trump has created within the Republican Party — between the dwindling number of Republican officials who maintain their oaths to the Constitution, and Republican officials who were (and still are ) willing to bend — and the committee's attempt to fortify the former.1. The committee highlighted Republicans who maintained their oaths of office and did not just refuse Trump's demands but also stood up to mobs unleashed by Trump. Rusty Bowers, speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives, testified that in phone calls with both Trump and Giuliani after the election, Giuliani asserted that hundreds of thousands of undocumented people had voted, and that many ballots were from people who had died. Bowers asked for evidence to back this claim but never received it. Trump asked Bowers to hold a hearing at the Arizona State Capitol to investigate allegations of election fraud, but Bowers did not believe that the evidence “merited a hearing” and “did not want to be used as a pawn.” Bowers later told Trump, “You are asking me to do something against my oath, and I will not break my oath.” Bowers's emotional testimony described the threats he endured as a result.Brad Raffensperger, Georgia's secretary of state, testified that President Biden carried the state of Georgia by approximately 12,000 votes. All ballots were twice recounted by hand, with no difference in the result. The committee played the recording of Trump trying to push Raffensperger to “find” just as many votes as he needed to beat Biden. “I just want to find 11,780 votes,” Trump said. “Give me a break.” But Raffensperger testified that “there were no votes to find. It was an accurate count that had been certified.” When Raffensperger refused Trump, Trump threatened him with a “criminal offense.” Raffensperger subsequently received threats to himself and his family, as did his wife and widowed daughter-in-law.Gabriel Sterling, a top election official in Georgia, also testified today. He had publicly disputed Trump's false claims of election fraud in the 2020 election. Weeks after the election, Sterling warned the public that unless Trump stopped making false claims, “someone is going to get killed.” Trump dismissed Sterling's warning in a tweet, reiterating — again, without evidence — that “thousands of votes” in Georgia were fraudulent. Shaye Moss, an election worker in Georgia was the last to testify. After Giuliani likened Moss, a Black woman, to a low-level drug dealer, she and her mother were subject to a wave of online threats and harassment — including death threats, some racist in nature. Shaye's mother's house was invaded by election deniers. She and her mother continue to live in fear. Moss's testimony was a powerful illustration of what Trump has wrought: Regular Americans doing public service jobs being subject to threats and intimidation from Trump followers. Today's hearings also added to the list of traitors in the Republican Party, willing to break their oaths of office. They include Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin. It was revealed today that an aide to Johnson wrote to a Pence aide that Johnson wanted to hand-deliver to Pence a slate of fake electors from Wisconsin. Pence's aide responded: “Do not give that to him. Today's testimony also added evidence of the traitorous behavior of Representative Andy Biggs, Republican of Arizona. Bowers testified that Biggs called him on the morning of Jan. 6 and asked him to support the effort to overturn the election. Bowers says he told Biggs he would not.2. The committee made much of the fact that its witnesses are Republicans who wanted Trump to win. Raffensperger, for example, described himself today as a conservative Republican who wanted Trump to win in 2020. He said he had to “follow the law and follow the Constitution.”Clearly, one of the purposes of the committee hearings is to fortify those remaining Republican officials and lawmakers around the country who continue to honor their oaths of office. The committee's strategy underscores the stark reality that, no matter how much Democrats revile Trump, it is Republicans who will ultimately decide his fate — and whether Trump remains a force in American politics.3. A third revelation today is that the attempted coup continues — to this day. I was struck by the fact that even this morning, before the committee hearing began, Trump issued a statement claiming that Bowers had told him after the the 2020 election that the election in Arizona was rigged. Bowers denied under oath that he had said this to Trump. Clearly, Trump wants the entire committee hearings to be seen as his word versus the committee's. If he decides to run for office (which seems increasingly likely), this will be his strategy. This is a public episode.

Arizona's Republican members of Congress have rarely voted against Trump in the first six months of the year.
