HUAC's continued targeting of activists spread to Jewish Americans and others at the forefront of the anti-Vietnam War movement. In 1967 - a year that would become one of the deadliest for U.S. military casualties as more than 11,000 American soldiers perished - counterculture activists Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin were among those subpoenaed. In response, Hoffman and Rubin were openly defiant, and their highly visible antics, which included arriving dressed in outrageous costumes and waving toy guns, helped to further erode the public's trust in the committee. Narrated by Rebecca Naomi Jones and featuring Gemma R. Birnbaum, executive director of the American Jewish Historical Society.

Send us a textIn this episode we listen in on one of the great public speakers of the Democratic Party, New York Governor Mario Cuomo.  He will deliver the nominating speech for Governor Bill Clinton and he will electrify the crowd as only he can do. In fact, what stands out is that most of the delegates in the hall, who are way more liberal than your average Democrat, really would have preferred Cuomo as the nominee. Cuomo had toyed with the idea of running for President back in 1991 but at that time George H. W. Bush was at 91% favorables in the polls and Cuomo decided to not make the race.  That left the field wide open for Bill Clinton. So, on this third night of the 1992 Democratic Convention it would be Mario Cuomo speaking in nomination of Bill Clinton. Clinton having gambled and won by challenging a President who seemed so strong just 12 months before that he had scared out the heavyweights that could have challenged him. There is a political lesson in that scenario because it cannot be lost on you that Clinton would go on to win and Mario Cuomo would never again have the opportunity to run for President in his own right. Such, is the wheel of fate in politics. Then a surprise will occur that will change the race and turn it completely upside down, just after Bill Clinton broke with tradition and came down to the hall himself to thank the delegates in person.  Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Tonight on The ReidOut, Joy Reid leads with Donald Trump apparently trying to deflect and posture--but it does not seem as though he is eager to face Vice President Kamala Harris on the debate stage. Also tonight, profiles in courage: we cover the surprising number of Republicans who openly support Harris, while believing that Trump is unfit for office. Plus, we have breaking news in the classified documents case that Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed last month. And, we examine the seemingly odd desperation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. endorsing Trump after recently calling him a "terrible human being" and "probably a sociopath." Kerry Kennedy, his sister, joins Joy tonight to discuss. Listen now to this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joe Sudbay is guest hosting for John while he is on vacation. He recaps the events at the DNC and looks ahead to the election. He also plays a clip put out from the Harris campaign of Trump chickening out of the planned ABC debate. Then, he interviews Journalist Meredith Shiner on her latest piece in The New Republic “Beware the Pundit-Brained Version of the Democratic Convention”. Next, Joe speaks with the Founder & CEO of Pacifica Strategies - Murshed Zaheed on VP Kamala Harris' speech and the American dream. And finally, he chats with listeners who reflect on their favorite moments at the DNC and the building blue wave as we head for the 2024 election.

To win the presidential election, Vice President Kamala Harris will need two key constituencies to show up in swing states across the country: Black voters and young voters. Laura Barrón-López joins Geoff Bennett to discuss. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders

Despite a party-wide effort urging Trump to pivot to policy, he just can't seem to muster the discipline to talk about any issues. And for two former Senators who know the focus it takes to win a competitive race, it's wild to watch. This week, former Senator Claire McCaskill's Senate colleague Heidi Heitkamp joins her as guest-host. After weighing the latest musings from JD Vance's audio vault, the two ‘post-menopausal grandmas' remind him that older women are still able to vote. Claire also asks Heidi to give some perspective on the unique opportunity the Harris-Walz team has to reach rural voters. Then, Cook Political Report's Dave Wasserman stops by for a deep dive into the latest Harris-Trump polling, how to understand the margin-of-error in a given sample, and how the down-ballot races are shaping up after the shift to the vice president's candidacy. Want to listen to this show without ads?

SERIES 3 EPISODE 6: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: There's no other word for it. Collapsed. Trump's poll numbers have collapsed. Poll numbers collapse all the time – relatively speaking; measured across the arc of American political history. If they had had them in 1864, ABE LINCOLN'S poll numbers would have collapsed. But I do not think that any other presidential candidate's poll numbers have collapsed, this late, this fast, after this much of a twin honeymoon of a convention and a failed assassination attempt. Ipsos Polling: Harris by FIVE, 42-37, last surveys taken Wednesday. In the July 23rd Ipsos poll it was Harris by three, 37-34. Ipsos Repeat Polling (same respondents as last poll) of the Big Seven Swing States: Harris by TWO, 50 to 48… that's Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The LAST Ipsos poll of the SAME voters in these states, also concluded July 23rd it was Trump by THREE. MARQUETTE LAW SCHOOL also released its national results very early Thursday Morning and among likely voters it's Harris 50 Trump 42 – Harris by EIGHT. Everybody has their own criteria for “likely voters” so if you drop to just registered voters it's still Harris by SIX. Most intriguing: among independent voters where Marquette has her head by 60 to 40. TWENTY points among Independents. What we are seeing as of THIS moment is exactly why this unprecedented move: changing horses not mid-stream but mid-tightrope was attempted. To get these results. And nobody, NOBODY, expected them this fast. NOBODY. Which leads me into the second thing I mentioned previously and I mentioned it on Wednesday July 24th and before I mentioned it I took a deep breath and asked myself do you really want to mention this already but I did and I repeat it: I have been thinking since no later than (hours after President Biden dropped out) that there will come a point, this year, this election, maybe this MONTH, where we will all be saying “Can you believe we came THIS CLOSE to not making Vice President Harris the nominee?” I'm not building the Joe Saved Democracy Again statues quite yet. But I am beginning to think of maybe what they kinda could LOOK like. AND IS ANYBODY GOING TO DO OR WRITE ANYTHING about Trump's Health Crisis? His “news conference” was, objectively, twice as bad, FOUR times as bad, as the President's performance at the debate. Throughout, it bordered on – and often crossed the line INTO – fugue state.  And this got no headlines.  Trump always SOUNDS like he doesn't know where he was. This time he also LOOKED like he didn't know where he was. Can't convey that on a podcast: when a question came from the right side of the room he looked frightened as if he had just discovered there WAS a right side of the room. He looked lost. More shockingly, perhaps, he looked pale. The New York Times, Washington Post, Politico, Axios, ABC, NBC and CBS had NO front page stories about the demented nature of his performance yesterday. Within an hour of its conclusion. Each hid behind his vague commitment to debates. Axios, incredibly, LED with “Vice President Harris still hasn't given an interview or taken questions from voters since she became a presidential candidate…” B-Block (24:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: A former mediocre football player named Marcellus Wiley claims Democrats are trying to bribe celebrities like him to support them (like him?) Trump makes up a story about Biden trying to seize back the nomination; his social media whore Dan Scavino posts 'I hear Biden is trying to seize back the nomination.' Elon Musk posts a fake London newspaper headline claiming there are going to be internment camps for conservatives (I WISH). Dear UK: what is the point of HAVING a Tower of London if you're not gonna use it?

After President Biden's rough performance at the first presidential debate, the question of an open convention has roared to the front of Democratic politics. But how would an open convention work? What would be its risks? What would be its rewards? In February, after I first made the case for an open Democratic convention, I interviewed Elaine Kamarck to better understand what an open convention would look like. She literally wrote the book on how we choose presidential candidates, “Primary Politics: Everything You Need to Know About How America Nominates Its Presidential Candidates.” But her background here isn't just theory. She's worked on four presidential campaigns and on 10 nominating conventions — for both Democrats and Republicans. She's a member of the Democratic National Committee's Rules Committee. And her explanation of the mechanics and dynamics of open conventions was, for me, extremely helpful. It's even more relevant now than it was then. Mentioned:The Lincoln Miracle by Ed AchornBook Recommendations:All the King's Men by Robert Penn WarrenThe Making of the President 1960 by Theodore H.
