Research shows that as many as 70 percent of Americans want the government to provide universal health-care coverage, yet the idea of affordable health care continues to be a complex, partisan issue. Accessibility is pertinent. Every American interacts with the health-care system at some point in their lives, and improper access is the difference between life and death. In their new book Medicare for All: A Citizen's Guide, physicians and health-care reform activists Abdul El-Sayed and Micah Johnson look to go beyond partisan talking points to offer a feasible health-care solution. Health care is quite complex, but they say that the solution is simple: affordable, accessible medicine for all. The authors create a no-nonsense guide to health-care accessibility, prioritizing the health of all Americans in our advanced society. A citizen’s guide to America’s most debated policy, Medicare for All offers a short, realistic roadmap to creating a health-care system for all. Join us as Abdul El-Sayed and Micah Johnson envision a hopeful and accessible future for all Americans. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are currently hosting all of our live programming via YouTube live stream. This program was recorded via video conference on February 22nd, 2021 by the Commonwealth Club of California.

(10/16/20) The word treason—the only crime specifically defined in the US Constitution—is tossed around a lot by politicians and pundits on both sides of the aisle these days. But, as accusations of treason flood our news feeds, it is not always clear what the crime truly is, or when it should be prosecuted. “On Treason: A Citizen's Guide to the Law” by legal scholar and Martin Luther King Jr. Professor of Law at UC Davis Carlton F.W. Larson is an indispensable guide for anyone seeking to understand the role of treason law in our constitutional democracy. Join us for an examination of what treason is and what can be done about it in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.

The Democratic primary field is now down to five. Sanders, Biden, Bloomberg, Warren and Gabbard. The two most recent dropouts, Klobuchar and Buttigieg, stepped back after South Carolina to throw their support behind Biden, who is now the establishment standard-bearer for the moderate lane of the party. Polls have long showed Sanders leading in most of the Super Tuesday states, but Biden's strong showing in South Carolina appears to have moved the needle in his favor, particularly in Virginia, where he had trailed Sanders by five points, but now leads by 20 in the most recent polling.  On Today's Show:David Plouffe, campaign manager for President Obama and the author of  A Citizen's Guide to Beating Donald Trump (Viking, March 3, 2020), previews Super Tuesday and talks about his new book.

Discussion on impeachment has intensified since Donald Trump assumed office this January, but what do we know about impeachment’s constitutional design and history? Cass Sunstein, professor at Harvard Law School, recently wrote an accessible account of impeachment to separate myth from history. Last week, Benjamin Wittes interviewed Sunstein on his new book "Impeachment: A Citizen's Guide." They discussed the Framers’ intent behind impeachment, what “high crimes and misdemeanors” actually means, the appropriate situations for which impeachment is called, and much more.

This week's episode covers District of Columbia v. Wesby, a case that appears super interesting at a surface level (house-parties, cops, possible strippers), but is sort of boring a few meters deep (probable cause, qualified immunity, mens rea).  Brett and Nazim get into the details, but not before breaking out a 8 movie bracket to determine the best house party movie of all time.  Law starts at (03:40), House Party nonsense from (11:19-23:05).

In our politically charged climate, it’s not uncommon to hear about impeachment. Earlier this month, a billionaire environmentalist launched a campaign to impeach President Trump. How does the process of impeachment really work? What’s an impeachable offense? And how many presidents have been impeached? Harvard Law professor Cass Sunstein offers a nonpartisan, historical guide — with some reverence — and even awe, for our constitutional order, and for the power it gives We the People. Sunstein’s latest book Impeachment: A Citizen’s Guide is out this month. Find our companion episode, "The Imagination of Leonardo da Vinci," by clicking here.

From calling Mexicans rapists and criminals at his campaign kick-off, to three different travel bans restricting travel from majority-Muslim nations, from alleged violations of the emoluments clause to the ongoing probe into collusion with the Russian government in the 2016 election, from the "Access Hollywood" tape to his Howard Stern appearances, from Iran to North Korea, from the NBA to the NFL, there seem to be as many reasons given for why President Donald Trump must be removed from office as there are protest movements. In a one-hour special State of the Resistance edition of "TrumpWatch," host Jesse Lent talks about what lessons activists can learn from the history of radical anti-fascist protest throughout the last century with Mark Bray, a former Occupy Wall Street organizer, Dartmouth College lecturer and author of the book "Antifa: The Anti-Fascist Handbook." Then, he speaks with Barbara Ann Radnofsky, a retired trial lawyer, the first woman in Texas history to run as the Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate and the author of "A Citizen's Guide to Impeachment" about what remedies are available within the current political system to remove a sitting U.S. President from office.

In this mini-episode, Brett gives Nazim a Buzzfeed style quiz to determine which Supreme Court justice he most resembles.  If you are starved for similar insight, please visit our twitter, facebook and/or website to learn your judicial spirit animal.

Planes are going down over ABQ, as this is the finale of Season 2 of the Citizen's Guide to the Supreme Court.  Much like last year, Brett and Nazim make podcast announcements, cover cases were cert. was denied, wrap up the historical value of this term, and laugh at their own jokes.  Unlike last year, we're still coming back next week with more podcasts.  Podcast announcement starts at (6:39) and law starts at (13:59).

It's been a boring week in the Supreme Court, so Brett and Nazim cover popular legal cases in lower Federal and State Courts, including the 9th Circuit concealed weapon decision, the Stanford Swimmer Judge controversy, the Google/Oracle slugfest, and a 9-1-1 Operator liability decision out of the 10th Circuit.  The law starts at (7:56), but skipping that far passes our new favorite game "How Many Current Supreme Court Justices Have Seen One Episode of Game of Thrones"?

This week's episode is a hodgepodge of legal topics, including review of a judge's ability to sue for Constitutional violations from the legislature, the unavoidable stalemate coming in U.S. v. Texas, and a review of speedy trial rights in sentencing from Betterman v. Montana.  Brett and Nazim also rank hot East Coast sandwiches in this week's edition of The Citizen's Guide to the Food Court.

Part Two of the "Nazim is on Vacation" episodes continues with a conversation about history with Justin, one of the longest-listening fans of the Citizen's Guide podcast.  Brett and Justin discuss a little American history, and include specific references to Bills of Attainder in the Bank Markazi v. Peterson case, the colonization of Puerto Rico in the Puerto Rico v. Sanchez Vital case, and how the Supreme Court views 19th Century Congressional grants of Native American land in the case of Nebraska v. Parker.  Special thanks to DJ Ray for the Serial-esque background music.

The Christmas episode of the Citizen's Guide to the Supreme Court takes a few detours before getting into Foster v. Chatman, including playing Price is Right with the Dean and Deluca catalog and talking about why Brett hates tiny airplanes.  Once that's out of the way, Brett and Nazim discuss the merits of the Foster case and read emails from people within the criminal justice system about how effective the Court is at resolving racial discrimination in the selection of a jury.

Director of Stanford's Political Communication Lab Shanto Iynegar discusses the media's transformation of American politics as we head into the 2006 elections.
