Democratic West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin announced in an op-ed his opposition to a bill that would nationalize election laws. “I cannot explain strictly partisan election reform or blowing up the Senate rules to expedite one party's agenda,” Manchin wrote Sunday in the Charleston Gazette-Mail. The announcement is another blow to HR1, which Democrats have dubbed the “For The People Act.” Republicans often refer to it as the “For The Politicians Act,” since it would grant matching funds to any candidate running for federal office. "Vince & Jason Save The Nation" is a political debate show that grapples with America's most pressing questions.

Don starts the show by reflecting upon former President Obama's recent interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper. As Republicans in state legislatures across the country are passing bills which restrict voting rights, Obama expressed concern about the state of American democracy and about how Republican senators are willing to follow Trump to save their careers with the harrowing statement: the path towards an undemocratic America “is not going to happen in just one bang. It happens in a series of steps.”   Former Senior Adviser to President Obama Valerie Jarrett joins Don to discuss the former president's statements and the importance of President Biden's legislation making it through Congress. Host of the podcast The Axe Files, David Axelrod and Former Chief Strategist for President George W. Bush Matthew Dowd also join to add context to Obama's statements and to analyze Rep. Liz Cheney's comments on Trump and the GOP.  West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin wrote an op-ed in the Charleston Gazette-Mail on his opposition to the For The People Act, a bill intended to expand voting rights, and his opposition to killing the filibuster. New York's Rep. Mondaire Jones joins to discuss the bipartisan nature of voting rights and why Manchin may as well have called his op-ed “Why I'll Vote to Preserve Jim Crow.”  Obama and Cooper also discussed on how he told the story of race in America as president. Political Commentator Bakari Sellers joins to explain why Obama wasn't forceful enough on the issue of race when he was in office, and Political Commentator and former member of the Obama administration Ashley Allison puts Obama's decisions on speaking about race in perspective.  Later, Adam Jentleson, the former Deputy Chief of Staff to Sen. Harry Reid, joins to discuss how the filibuster was used in the past to exclusively block civil rights bills and how it continues to prevent progressive change.  Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson twisted Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s words to deny systemic racism and critical race theory. Professor of history at the University of Texas at Austin Peniel Joseph joins to explain why Johnson misrepresented Dr. King and to discuss how white supremacy is still found in some American tradition.  At least 17 people were killed in mass shootings and gun violence across the country this weekend, and this year has seen a 23% incense in deaths from gun violence. National Correspondent Ryan Young reports.  Finally, the youngest survivors of the mass school shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida are graduating this year. CNN's Kate Bolduan brings a report that reflects on how two graduating seniors fought to stop gun violence during their time in school, and how they plan on taking their experiences with them as they enter their next chapter.  To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

A grandes rasgos, se trata de una iniciativa de corte progresista que propone una legislación federal para garantizar una mejor accesibilidad al voto, impedir el gerrymandering en los estados o conceder la condición de estado a D.C.Para más información, en esta edición de la Wikly exploramos el proyecto de ley en más detalle.En el artículo, Manchin denuncia que el debate por el derecho al voto se ha partidizado a niveles que son perjudiciales para la democracia estadounidense y considera que una legislación federal en estos temas debe surgir del consenso entre demócratas y republicanos.El proyecto de reforma presentado por los demócratas no ha recibido apoyo republicano alguno y el senador aprovecha para explicar cómo los demócratas han “demonizado” el obstruccionismo con el fin de esquivar el diálogo con los republicanos.El voto negativo de Manchin, que es parte del bloque demócrata del Senado, deja con oportunidades de aprobación prácticamente nulas a este proyecto de ley.Más información en Charleston Gazette-Mail.🇵🇪 Perú: empate técnicoEn la madrugada del domingo, los resultados electorales de las elecciones presidenciales de Perú de segunda vuelta seguían sin dar un ganador oficial.Los primeros recuentos apuntan a un empate técnico que quizá tarde días en resolverse antes de dar la victoria al progresista Pedro Castillo o a la conservadora Keiko Fujimori.Aunque Fujimori iba algo por delante con el escrutinio oficial todavía por debajo del 50 por ciento.Las elecciones se sienten más trascendentales que nunca en Perú después de un periodo de cinco años en el que el país ha tenido cuatro presidentes. Y el año pandémico tampoco ha ayudado a calmar el profundo descontento de la población.Castillo, el progresista, es un activista sindicalista que trabajó como profesor de primaria y que ha prometido una revisión al sistema político y económico para atajar la pobreza y las desigualdades que dividen al país.Fujimori, la conservadora, aboga por defender y apoyar el sistema de libre mercado para atraer inversión, pero está manchada por acusaciones de corrupción y por la reputación de su padre, el expresidente encarcelado por crímenes de lesa humanidad.Más información en El Comercio.🥊 Paul se defiendeLogan Paul sorprendió a comentaristas deportivos y expertos de boxeo este domingo cuando luchó en el ring contra Floyd Mayweather, uno de los boxeadores más aclamados de todos los tiempos.Y aunque el balance final es que perdió contra Mayweather, algo que esperaba literalmente todo el mundo, el youtuber logró aguantar ocho rondas sin un K.O.La pelea era una exhibición no-oficial y no había jueces, así que no hay ganador oficial, pero puedes ver extractos del encuentro en Twitter.Aquí, algunos de los golpes que Paul sí logró encajarle a Mayweather, al que le sacaba varios centímetros y kilos.

In Segment 1, Brad McElhinney of WV Metro News joins us, with a surprise appearance from his dog, to talk about the “weird” differences in covering this year’s legislative session, which was closed to the public during the pandemic. This year, the news media covered the session from above in the galleries for social distancing, a major change from years past when reporters were stationed on the ground floor closer to the legislators.McElhinney says the overriding headline of the session was the governor’s proposed removal of the state income tax, which caused a stir with the suggested sales tax increase to offset the loss of revenue. If the bill had passed, the state would have had the highest sales tax in the country. The bill was shut down in the House of Delegates with a 0-100 vote within hours of the governor saying the House wouldn’t vote on the bill.In Segment 2, Brad McElhinney of WV Metro News returns to our reporters’ roundtable to discuss more highlights of the legislative session, including Education Savings Accounts and expanding charter schools. Issues regarding education were among the earliest discussed, with the House of Delegates working to move through its priorities quickly should COVID-19 pause or close the session.Two years ago, educators across the state went to the Capitol Building to show opposition to expanding charter schools. That pushback didn’t happen this year because the sessions were closed to the public. With the legislation passed, the ESAs will help families save up for tuition and other educational expenses should they choose nontraditional schooling, such as private schools, for their children.The legislature also passed a bill tightening the existing law against teachers’ strikes, stating that should teachers strike again in the future, they would not be paid for those days. Teachers’ unions called the bill, “vindictive” and “punitive.”In Segment 3, Chief Political Reporter Mark Curtis is joined by Lacie Pierson, reporter for the Charleston Gazette-Mail, and Steven Adams, Capitol Correspondent for Ogden Newspapers, to discuss their experiences this year covering the 2021 West Virginia legislative session amid protocols set in place for COVID-19 guidelines.In the roundtable, Adams describes the difficulties in covering the session with limited opportunities to speak with legislators due to protocol put in place for social distancing. Pierson says while the media was still able to access the same rooms, it was still very limited and she had to rely on her press pass more so than previous years to show she was allowed in since the general public was not.Our guests also talk about the state income tax plan, which was shot down 0-100 by the House of Delegates. The biggest question now is what happens next, especially with the governor’s plan for a road tour to gain support for the income tax plan.In Segment 4, Lacie Pierson, reporter for the Charleston Gazette-Mail, and Steven Adams, Capitol Correspondent for Ogden Newspapers, return for a discussion on the Mountain State’s 2021 legislative session.Pierson discusses the legislature’s approval of an Intermediate Court of Appeals in the Mountain State. She called the decision “a long time coming,” as the state is one of only a handful without a middle court.Adams talks about the state’s budget, which he called a “compromised budget” as it takes money from higher education institutions, particularly Marshall and West Virginia University. He says the compromise is that this does put money in other areas, and the surplus the state expects at the end of the fiscal year would backfill the funds. It also included a 1.5% cut to state agencies due to the proposed, and failed, state income tax plan. However, while the income tax plan failed, that cut remained in the budget.

HD Media, the West Virginia-based publisher of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Charleston Gazette-Mail and the Herald-Dispatch, is making its own news with the recent announcement that they have filed a federal antitrust lawsuit against Google and Facebook. The purpose is to hopefully help the entire industry receive some form of compensation from the 70%+ of local advertising revenue these tech giants make from the content they exploit. In this segment of E&P Reports, publisher Mike Blinder has an in-depth conversation with lawsuit co-council Paul T. Farrell Jr. and HD Media’s VP of news and executive editor Lee Wolverton to uncover how the lawsuit started and what they want to see happen as a result of their actions. Farrell and Wolverton also speak to how they feel about the need for local journalism and how this suit is not just about ad dollars but also the survival of the news industry as a whole.

On July 15th, DEA data covering 2006 to 2012 American opioid sales, was released to the public. The ARCOS data revealed the distribution path of every oxycodone and hydrocodone pill sold in America. A trail of opioids from manufacturers to distributors, to pharmacies, to patients. Undeniable evidence for their responsibility for the opioid crisis. Big Pharma didn’t hand this “smoking gun” for the opioid epidemic over easily. It wasn’t until the Charleston Gazette-Mail, and Washington Post prevailed in a fierce legal battle that ARCOS data was released. However, this was just one fight in a struggle that began long before knowledge of this crucial evidence existed. In part one of this two-part series covering the history of the ARCOS data, you’ll learn how an underdog journalist’s relentless pursuit of the truth succeeded, despite insurmountable odds. Our story begins with Patrick McGinley, and Suzanne Weise, lawyers and Professors of Law at West Virginia College of Law. Hired to help investigative journalist Eric Eyre gain access to DEA and Big Pharma court records, they’ve joined us to share their role in the fight against the opioid epidemic. Listen to today’s podcast for part one of our journey into the history of the ARCOS data. You'll learn how it was finally released, and why the DEA, Justice Department, and Big Pharma tried to hide this information from the public. Remember to tune in next week for part two, where we interview Washington Post Investigative Journalist Scott Higham. He shares his account of the battle over the ARCOS data and what we have learned from their analysis of a 380 million record database.

Mal·ad·min·is·tra·tion — n. (formal) : inefficient or dishonest administration; mismanagement.In 2006, while serving as a law clerk for the Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia, Allen H. Loughry authored a book titled, Don't Buy Another Vote, I Won't Pay for a Landslide: The Sordid And Continuing History of Political Corruption in West Virginia.Six years later, he was elected by the people of West Virginia as a justice on the same court, and on January 1, 2017, he became Chief Justice. On June 20, 2018, Loughry was impeached by the West Virginia House for mind-boggling corruption of his own. Today, he is “living history” — facing impeachment and up to 390 years in prison. However, this was only the beginning of the truly continuing history of political corruption in West Virginia's Supreme Court. What began with a revelation of Loughry's excessive spending on an office remodel — including the purchase of a $32,000 couch — implicated all five of the standing members of the Mountain State's highest court. Now, three of them face impeachment trials, while the other two resigned to avoid the ugly proceedings into their potentially criminal “maladministration.”The majority of the charges revolve around lavish spending on their offices — partly a product of the lack of oversight on judicial budgets in West Virginia. Laurie Lin (@WVPundette), a columnist for West Virginia's Charleston Gazette-Mail and former attorney, has been following the story carefully. Earlier this month, she recapped the depressing yet almost comical saga in a teleforum hosted by The Federalist Society, and fielded questions on the political implications of such a blatant abuse of power.It's easy to blame judicial elections for such widespread corruption. We know that voters are largely ignorant. Furthermore, elections could create incentives for judges to favor those who give to their campaigns. But in this case, the maladministration seems to have simply come from a unique culture of corruption within the courthouse — specifically around office expenditures. In addition to the infamous $32,000 sofa, one justice had renovated her office with a tacky Egyptian theme, meaning that her successor had to spend significant sums just to restore it to something normal. This quickly snowballed into a culture of personalizing offices to an absurd degree.Now, Governor Jim Justice is replacing the justices who resigned with temporary appointees — both from his own party (Republican) — and Democrats in the House are calling foul play. While this story may seem beyond odd to outsiders of West Virginia politics, it comes as little surprise to the state's residents. Wikipedia provides some helpful pretext for West Virginia's political bizarro world:“In 2015, Justice switched from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party and announced his candidacy for Governor in the 2016 election. He ran as a Democrat and defeated the Republican nominee, Bill Cole. Less than seven months after taking office, Justice switched back to the Republican Party the day after announcing his plans at a President Trump rally in the state.”— Wikipedia page for Jim JusticeSoon enough, the voters of West Virginia will have a chance to elect new judges to the two to five vacant seats that will be left in the wake of the judicial crisis. They've already repealed the part of the constitution that enables the judiciary to get away with unaccountable spending on couches, Egyptian-themed offices, and the like. But a broader debate remains over the merits of electing judges versus appointing them, under a system sometimes known as merit selection.

The ongoing controversy has implications for this fall's elections, the future of the court, and separation of powers.

A portion of our Young Turks Main Show from January 30, 2018. For more go to http://www.tytnetwork.com/join. Hour 1:  Cenk. Despite widespread coverage of corporations gifting their employees with cash, just 2% of Americans say they've seen any kind of benefit thanks to the Republican tax law signed by President Trump in December. Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen (R-N.J.), the chairman of the powerful House Appropriations Committee who defied his party to vote against President Trump's tax cuts, announced Monday that he will not seek reelection. The Netherlands' spy service broke into the computers used by a powerful Russian hacking group and may be sitting on evidence relating to the breach of the U.S. Democratic National Committee. The US has released a sweeping list of prominent Russian business and political figures, in defiance of Moscow and implementing a Congressional law designed to punish Russia for election meddling. The US Treasury report, published shortly before a midnight deadline, listed every senior member of the political administration at the Kremlin, and every Russian oligarch with a net worth of $1 billion or more. Some of those named are already subject to US sanctions. But the administration stopped short of imposing any new punishments, saying the legislation was already doing its job. The report was "not a sanctions list," it said. Instead, the Treasury report resembled an exercise in naming and shaming -- putting individuals on notice that they may be subject to sanctions in the future. Cenk’s prediction/theory: Trump laundering money to Russian oligarchs for decades. Hour 2: Face recognition technology to put celeb faces on porn. Between 2006 and 2016, a total of 20.8 million prescription painkillers were sent to two pharmacies in Williamson, in Mingo County, West Virginia, a town with a population of only 2,900 people. A U.S. government panel is now questioning how drug wholesalers could have sent millions of prescription pills to two pharmacies in West Virginia without flagging any suspicion, The Charleston Gazette-Mail reported. The panel is centered around two drug wholesalers who provided drugs to the pharmacies, Ohio-based Miami-Luken and Illinois-based H.D. Smith. Shipment papers indicate the wholesalers made large deliveries of the drugs over several consecutive days. The papers also show extreme increases in the number of drug orders from year to year. Both of these records should have sparked suspicion. The main drugs identified in the investigation are hydrocodone and oxycodone, two prescription painkillers. A New York Times investigation into a company that sells Twitter followers and retweets - many from automated accounts - names a variety of celebrities, including Cleveland-based celebrity chef Michael Symon. According to the Times, the company, Devumi, has a library of 3.5 million bot accounts that can be sold repeatedly. The Times says Devumi "has provided customers with more than 200 million Twitter followers." Millions of Americans believe God made Trump president. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of the Cover2 Resources podcast, Greg interviews Eric Eyre, a Journalist at Charleston Gazette-Mail. Eric reports on healthcare issues, including the current opioid epidemic sweeping across the nation and, more specifically, in West Virginia. Eric’s team analyzed opioid shipments in WV between 2007 and 2012. Through this deep research, they learned that wholesalers shipped enough opioids to supply every man, woman and child with 433 pills during that time period. Eric’s team also found that a disproportionate number of pain pills went to the poorest and most rural counties in West Virginia. In the podcast, he shares why the number was so disproportionate compared to less rural counties. Listen to the podcast for Eric’s highly-researched perspective on the opioid epidemic.
