Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 378 published last May 6, 2014. Greg Palast is the author of the New York Times bestsellers Billionaires & Ballot Bandits, Armed Madhouse , The Best Democracy Money Can Buy and the highly acclaimed Vultures' Picnic, named Book of the Year 2012 on BBC Newsnight Review. His books have been translated into two dozen languages. His brand new film of his documentary reports for BBC Newsnight and Democracy Now! is called Vultures and Vote Rustlers. Palast is known for complex undercover investigations, spanning five continents, from the Arctic to the Amazon, from Caracas to California, using the skills he learned over two decades as a top investigator of corporate fraud. Palast, who has led investigations of multi-billion-dollar frauds in the oil, nuclear, power and finance industries for governments on three continents, has an academic side: he is the author of Democracy and Regulation, a seminal treatise on energy corporations and government control, commissioned by the United Nations and based on his lectures at Cambridge University and the University of São Paulo. In the 1970s, after earning a finance degree from the University of Chicago while studying under Milt Friedman and other "free trade luminaries," Palast went on to challenge their vision of a New Global Order. He did this while working for the United Steelworkers of America, the Enron workers' coalition in Latin America and consumer and environmental groups worldwide. Palast is Patron of the Trinity College Philosophical Society, an honor previously held by Jonathan Swift and Oscar Wilde. His writings have won him the Financial Times David Thomas Prize. Palast was called"An American hero," said Martin Luther King III and the ultra famous political activist Noam Chomsky says Greg "Upsets all the right people." Palast won the George Orwell Courage in Journalism Award for his BBC documentary, Bush Family Fortunes, where he exposed George W. Bush dodging the Vietnam War draft.

Listen to The Network soliloquy that Ed Asner gamely voiced to a techno dance beat for Greg Palast's bestselling book Armed Madhouse

Greg Palast, investigative journalist, and author of four New York Times bestsellers, including ‘Armed Madhouse,” “Billionaires & Ballot Bandits,” and ‘The Best Democracy Money Can Buy,” joins us to talk about the outsized charges billed to some Texas residents during the recent winter storm emergency because of privatized and deregulated essential services, how this problem is not unique to Texas and involves the current state of energy infrastructure in the country, and and how consumer choice mania is not necessarily is good for the people. Medea Benjamin, anti-war activist and co-founder of Code Pink and Nick Davies, peace activist and author of "Blood on Our Hands: The American Invasion and Destruction of Iraq”, talk to us about the revelations that Erik Prince, former head of the security contractor Blackwater Worldwide, and prominent Trump supporter, violated a United Nations arms embargo on Libya by selling weapons to warlord Khalifa Haftar, the recalibration of the relationship between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, and the re-negotiation of the Iran nuclear deal.Ted Rall, award winning political cartoonist, columnist, and graphic novelist, join hosts Bob Schlehuber and Michelle Witte to discuss Ron De Santis’ HB1 “anti-mob” bill in Florida, which will penalize peaceful protests under the guise of providing security; the role key members of the Oath Keepers played on January 6th’s attack on the US Capitol; the continuing rise of paramilitary groups in the U.S.; the prospects of a Trump third party; and the grim outlook for low income work post-pandemic that will exacerbate the precariousness of working people who were already struggling even before the health crisis hit. The Misfits and Ted also go through the roundup of the Sunday political news shows in their weekly “Miss the Press” segment, Rahm Emmanuel’s pot-meets-kettle moment talking about Cruz and Cuomo, bad takes on Texas, and outrage over SNL jokes over the discriminatory vaccination program in Israel.

Greg Palast is an investigative journalist & NY Times bestselling author. Some of his books are; Armed Madhouse, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy, Vultures' Picnic, Billionaires & Ballot Bandits, and his new book How Trump Stole 2020: The Hunt for America's Vanished Voters, which is out now.

Today on Sojourner Truth: Voter suppression efforts are being stepped up by the Trump administration in the lead up to the November 2020 elections. This, following a spate of voter suppression measures put in place across the United States after the 2013 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to gut a key section of the voting rights act. Is your vote under threat? States with some form of voter suppression include Alabama, Arizona, Indiana, Kansas, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, Arkansas, North Dakota, Georgia and others. In what is noted as a blatantly partisan move, Trump, on the one hand, praises Florida's vote by mail program (Florida, being led by a Republican). Meanwhile, he's suing Nevada (led by a Democrat) for precisely implementing vote by mail in that state. All of this, after Trump has spent months blasting vote by mail as a fraud, an unproven claim. What are we in for in the upcoming election? Our guest is Greg Palast, the author of several New York Times bestsellers, including "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy" and "Armed Madhouse." His latest book is titled, "How Trump Stole 2020." Palast has also produced investigative reports for BBC Television, The Guardian, Democracy Now! and Rolling Stone. Also, there is concern about a slow-motion coup in Ecuador. The government of President Lenin Moreno is being accused of eroding democratic rights and suppressing opposition from the progressive left. On July 19, the South American country's National Electoral Council suspended four political parties and banned them from taking part in the 2021 general elections. The suspended parties include the Social Commitment Force Party, led by former President Rafael Correa, who served in office from 2007 to 2017. Our guest is Guillaume Long, a senior policy analyst at the Center for Economic and Policy Research. Prior to joining CEPR, Guillaume held several cabinet positions in the government of Ecuador, including Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Culture, and Minister of Knowledge and Human Talent. Also, today marks the 75th anniversary of the U.S. dropping a nuclear weapon on Hiroshima, Japan. We mark the occasion by remembering the victims as well as underscoring the dangerous nuclear arms race now underway worldwide. Lastly, our weekly Earth Minute presented by the Global Justice Ecology Project.

Our guest is Guillaume Long, a senior policy analyst at the Center for Economic and Policy Research. Prior to joining CEPR, Guillaume held several cabinet positions in the government of Ecuador, including Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Culture, and Minister of Knowledge and Human Talent. Also, today marks the 75th anniversary of the U.S. dropping a nuclear weapon on Hiroshima, Japan. We mark the occasion by remembering the victims as well as underscoring the dangerous nuclear arms race now underway worldwide. Lastly, our weekly Earth Minute presented by the Global Justice Ecology Project.

Today on Sojourner Truth: Voter suppression efforts are being stepped up by the Trump administration in the lead up to the November 2020 elections. This, following a spate of voter suppression measures put in place across the United States after the 2013 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court to gut a key section of the voting rights act. Is your vote under threat? States with some form of voter suppression include Alabama, Arizona, Indiana, Kansas, Mississippi, Nebraska, New Hampshire, Ohio, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, Arkansas, North Dakota, Georgia and others. In what is noted as a blatantly partisan move, Trump, on the one hand, praises Florida's vote by mail program (Florida, being led by a Republican). Meanwhile, he's suing Nevada (led by a Democrat) for precisely implementing vote by mail in that state. All of this, after Trump has spent months blasting vote by mail as a fraud, an unproven claim. What are we in for in the upcoming election? Our guest is Greg Palast, the author of several New York Times bestsellers, including "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy" and "Armed Madhouse." His latest book is titled, "How Trump Stole 2020." Palast has also produced investigative reports for BBC Television, The Guardian, Democracy Now! and Rolling Stone. Also, there is concern about a slow-motion coup in Ecuador. The government of President Lenin Moreno is being accused of eroding democratic rights and suppressing opposition from the progressive left.

On today's episode of The Critical Hour, Dr. Wilmer Leon is joined by Greg Palast, investigative reporter and author of several New York Times bestsellers, including The Best Democracy Money Can Buy and Armed Madhouse, to talk about what's at stake in today's primaries. One of the most closely watched races will be in Kansas, where President Trump is backing Chris Kobach, the former vice chairman of his failed Presidential Advisory Commission on Election Integrity, against the advice of his aides. Democrats see a Kobach victory as an opening. Americans have until today to speak out and tell the Commerce Department how they feel about a question of citizenship on the 2020 Census. For the first time since 1950, the U.S. Census Bureau is planning to ask everyone living in the United States whether they are citizens when it conducts its next decennial census in 2020. Anticipating that some immigrants might avoid answering the question, the Trump administration wants to try using other government records to fill in missing responses. What does this mean for the immigrant community going forward? It's day six in the trial of Paul Manafort. President Trump's onetime campaign chairman is on trial in federal court in Alexandria, Virginia, on bank and tax fraud charges. Prosecutors allege that he failed to pay taxes on millions of dollars he made from his work for a Russia-friendly Ukrainian political party, then lied to get loans when the cash stopped coming in. Manafort's former business associate Rick Gates took the stand again today. We've got all the messy details and what it all means. GUESTS: Greg Palast - Author and award-winning investigative reporter featured in The Guardian, Nation Magazine, Rolling Stone Magazine, BBC and other high profile media outlets. Carlos Casteneda - Attorney at Garcia & Garcia. Nancy Lewin - Executive Director, Association of Latino Administrators and Superintendents.Daniel Lazare - Journalist and author of three books, The Frozen Republic, The Velvet Coup and America's Undeclared War.Griffin Connolly - Staff writer at Roll Call.

Today on The Critical Hour Dr. Leon dissects the immigration laws & justification of separating children from families that Sanders claims is biblically correct to enforce. A policy that can be reversed by the President simply calling Homeland Security and saying: stop. Scheduled Guests: Greg Palast - author of several New York Times bestsellers including The Best Democracy Money Can Buy and Armed Madhouse. You know him through his investigative reports for BBC Television, The Guardian, Democracy Now! and Rolling Stone. They discuss why the Supreme Court left unsettled the issue of politically motivated redistricting on Monday, rejecting two appeals from Republicans and Democrats but failing to rule on the merits of their claims. On Monday, the renowned law firm of Mirer Mazzocchi Julien of New York will serve a 90-day notice on Jon Husted, the Secretary of State of Ohio, of our intent to file suit in federal court unless we receive complete information on each of the hundreds of thousands of voters removed from the voter rolls. Monday's Supreme Court decision blessing Ohio's removal of half a million voters was ultimately decided on the issue of a postcard.Now that little postcard threatens the voting rights of millions — but it can be reversed.Anonymous - Member of the White House Press Corps, media analystWilmer hears a first hand account for the press pool in what happened when Sarah Huckabee Sanders and the president refused to make any changes on the separation of immigration children from their families. They discuss former First Lady Laura Bush's statements "I live in a border state. I appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries, but this zero-tolerance policy is cruel. It is immoral. And it breaks my heart," she continued, "Our government should not be in the business of warehousing children in converted box stores or making plans to place them in tent cities in the desert outside of El Paso. These images are eerily reminiscent of the Japanese American internment camps of World War II, now considered to have been one of the most shameful episodes in U.S. history,"

The Republican Party is what's standing in the way of the safe democratic civilization that Americans fought, bled and died to entrust to us. We'll discuss this and more. ________________________________ Please support the Independent Liberal Media. Donate to RDTdaily.

Greg Palast is the author of the New York Times bestsellers Billionaires & Ballot Bandits, Armed Madhouse , The Best Democracy Money Can Buy and the highly acclaimed Vultures' Picnic, named Book of the Year 2012 on BBC Newsnight Review. His books have been translated into two dozen languages. His brand new film of his documentary reports for BBC Newsnight and Democracy Now! is called Vultures and Vote Rustlers. Palast is known for complex undercover investigations, spanning five continents, from the Arctic to the Amazon, from Caracas to California, using the skills he learned over two decades as a top investigator of corporate fraud. Palast, who has led investigations of multi-billion-dollar frauds in the oil, nuclear, power and finance industries for governments on three continents, has an academic side: he is the author of Democracy and Regulation, a seminal treatise on energy corporations and government control, commissioned by the United Nations and based on his lectures at Cambridge University and the University of São Paulo. In the 1970s, after earning a finance degree from the University of Chicago while studying under Milt Friedman and other "free trade luminaries," Palast went on to challenge their vision of a New Global Order. He did this while working for the United Steelworkers of America, the Enron workers' coalition in Latin America and consumer and environmental groups worldwide. Palast is Patron of the Trinity College Philosophical Society, an honor previously held by Jonathan Swift and Oscar Wilde. His writings have won him the Financial Times David Thomas Prize. Palast was called"An American hero," said Martin Luther King III and the ultra famous political activist Noam Chomsky says Greg "Upsets all the right people." Palast won the George Orwell Courage in Journalism Award for his BBC documentary, Bush Family Fortunes, where he exposed George W. Bush dodging the Vietnam War draft.
