The Fitzgerald Theater was filled to the rafters Wednesday night for the season launch of Talking Volumes. Activist and novelist Stacey Abrams joined Kerri Miller on stage and began the evening with a moment of silence to mark the political assassination of Charlie Kirk, who had been shot and killed only hours earlier. Abrams, herself a national political figure, said dark moments such as these need to be met with determined unity — to stand for and with one another. She got those values from her parents, she said, who always emphasized the need to be in church, in school and in service to others. She also reflected on how failure has worked in her life as a catalyst for growth and how books have led her to develop a deep moral consciousness. It's no surprise to readers who love her novels — including “Coded Justice,” the latest thriller in the Avery Keene series, which finds Avery relying on her friends to investigate the morally murky world of AI-powered medicine. Abram's books are filled with memorable characters who exhibit the same kind of determination and hope that Abram's embodies. Don't miss Abram's warm and inspiring conversation with Kerri Miller, rounded out by the musical styles of Minneapolis' own Lady Midnight, as the 2025 Talking Volumes season begins.And get your tickets for future shows, which include Patricia Lockwood on Sept. 25, Misty Copeland on Sept. 28, John Grisham on Oct. 23 and Kate Baer on Nov. 17. Guest: Stacey Abrams is an activist, an entrepreneur, a political leader and a bestselling author. Her new novel, the third in the Avery Keene series, is “Coded Justice.” Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, as President Trump cracks down on crime in major cities, the left is labeling his efforts as political and racial. The senseless murder of a young Ukranian woman on a train in Charlotte last month goes virtually un-reported by the media. The assailant was black and a career criminal. Also audio from Stacey Abrams saying "transgender chidren are a cause for inflation", the Government's lies about the COVID vaccine, RFK Jr serving his own agenda and not the President's plan and most people aren't motivated to exercise. Also a story from liberal publication AXIOS on Joe Biden's "auto pen" and audio from Ted Cruz and the validity of his many pardons.

Opportunity in America - Events by the Aspen Institute Economic Opportunities Program
A core shared value in American society, one deeply woven into our national narrative, is the belief in equal opportunity — the idea that everyone should have a fair chance to succeed based on their effort, talent, and ambition, regardless of their background.Equal opportunity in the American workplace has deep roots in the nation's struggle for civil rights and economic fairness. Though disparities remain for women, different racial groups, and others in areas such as employment rates, wages, wealth, and occupational segregation, progress has been made. From the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which outlawed employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, to affirmative action policies and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the US has made significant strides toward leveling the playing field.Today, the legacy and pursuit of equal opportunity face significant challenges. Recent debates and policy shifts risk weakening efforts to address discrimination and harassment, and they may obscure the history and progress we've made toward greater inclusion. These trends raise important questions about how we uphold our shared commitment to fairness and democratic values. At a time when trust in institutions is wavering and inequality is rising, reaffirming our commitment to equal opportunity is more urgent than ever. In this event, which took place on September 4, 2025, we explore the current landscape, emerging challenges, and the strategies needed to protect and strengthen opportunity in the American workplace. We hear opening remarks from Kalpana Kotagal, commissioner of the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission, followed by a panel discussion with Stacey Abrams, USC's Dr. Manuel Pastor, and moderator Natalie Foster, a senior fellow with our Future of Work Initiative and president and cofounder of the Economic Security Project.For more information about this event, including a transcript, speaker bios, and additional resources, visit our event page.For highlights from this discussion, subscribe to EOP's YouTube channel.Or subscribe to our podcast to listen on the go.This event is part of our Opportunity in America conversation series.

Michael Kofman, a senior fellow in the Russia and Eurasia Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, joins the show to tell us where things stand on the battlefields.

Stacey Abrams is a renowned political leader, lawyer, author, and advocate for equity and justice. Known for her relentless work supporting voting rights and addressing poverty and inequality, Stacey is also an acclaimed writer of legal thrillers, including her latest work, Coded Justice, which explores the ethical dilemmas surrounding AI in the legal system. With roots in the Deep South, Abrams credits her family and upbringing for inspiring her commitment to social change and her ability to translate complex issues into relatable action. Beyond politics and books, she is a powerful speaker and founder of several organizations advocating for inclusion and systemic reform. Takeaways: Power is Borrowed, Not Owned: Stacey discusses the idea that positions of authority are ultimately “borrowed power,” and true impact comes from influence, not titles. AI & Justice: Her novel Coded Justice highlights both the potential and the danger of integrating AI in the legal system, urging that technology must always operate within ethical guardrails. Leadership is Responsibility, Not Permission: Abrams emphasizes that leadership means taking responsibility and acting even without formal authority—championing the idea of being a “professional troublemaker” for good. Sound Bites: “Poverty is immoral. It is economically inefficient, and it is solvable… For me, it is a call to action.” – Stacey Abrams “You don't have to be given the authority to act, to have the responsibility of action. And that's leadership.” – Stacey Abrams “AI is a tool that can be used to build or a tool that can be used to destroy, but it's just a tool. It's up to the humans who are wielding it.” – Stacey Abrams Connect & Discover Stacey: Website: https://www.staceyabrams.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/staceyabrams Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/StaceyAbramsGA# YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPjnB2FdBAvJp2fKOGzJHww X: https://x.com/staceyabrams Book: Coded Justice: A Thriller

The Democratic Party has lost millions of voters since 2020, according to new analysis from the New York Times. Meanwhile, Republicans are gaining ground, even in traditional blue states, as more voters register with the GOP.“We're missing layups on the basics right now,” says longtime Democratic strategist Nina Smith, alarmed by the news. “We're losing on voter registration in 30 states — the only 30 states that track voter registration between parties. We're losing in every single one.”This week on The Intercept Briefing, Smith, a former senior adviser to Stacey Abrams with more than two decades in Democratic politics, joined host Jessica Washington to explain why the party keeps failing at the fundamentals — like voter registration, building the base, and party infrastructure — while Donald Trump consolidates power despite record-high disapproval ratings.“Voter registration is like the layup of Democratic basketball politics,” says Smith. “How do we expect to win elections if we're not registering voters who are committed to us on our issues?” Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.You can support our work at theintercept.com/join.

Tara and Lee claim to have found two major signs of Democrat desperation. First, they report that 1.5 million illegal immigrants have "self-deported," attributing this to a new program that offers a free flight and a $1,000 bonus to those who voluntarily leave. In response, they argue, a federal judge has ordered the "Alligator Alcatraz" detention center to be shut down and destroyed to prevent its use for deportations. Second, Tara and Lee discuss an ongoing investigation into a massive financial scandal. They claim that the EPA, under the previous administration, funneled $20 billion in taxpayer money to politically aligned NGOs and "pass-through entities." The hosts describe this as outright "theft" and "fraud" meant to fund Democratic campaigns. They interpret a recent video from Stacey Abrams as a sign that she is scared and is anticipating an indictment related to this alleged crime.

Three visionaries discuss their lives of service, the legacy of the civil rights movement, and their ongoing commitment to global human rights. A conversation about what it means to make history—and to shape the future.
With word that Kamala Harris wouldn't be seeking the California governor's office in 2026 came immediate speculation (and derision) she's eyeing a second go at the White House in 2028. Incidentally, 'Meet The Press' anchor Kirsten Welker (again) brought up this alleged, yet-to-be-proven cover-up inside the Biden White House to shield Americans from knowing the former President was .... old?Why am I the only one troubled by mainstream media types insisting there's a "there" there? It smacks of ageism and the same kind of "took the bait" group-think the right lambasts Beltway media over when it's "RussiaGate" or "the dossier." Meanwhile, someone I'm still going to insist should be considered for a Presidential movement (til he says he absolutely won't do it) is 'The Daily Show' Monday host Jon Stewart. He and author ("Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza" ) Peter Beinart - two Jewish American men - had such a profound conversation last Monday - about Netenyahu's bloodlust and the long-range ramifications on Israeli safety and security - I felt it worthy of revisiting. Just more reason I see Stewart as a "Trump elixir" for most of non-MAGA America. C"mon, Jon.------Stacey Abrams also isn't running for governor - here in Georgia - at least not yet. A recent interview with NPR's Tanya Mosley about her latest novel, "Coded Justice" naturally led Mosley to ask while she had Abrams on. The TL:DR is she's "not ruling it out." Meanwhile, an Abrams-led organization - Fair Fight Action - is working to counter-act state government-led voter purges by providing an online search tool to help Georgia registered voters check their standing. ------Georgia Recorder op/ed columnist Jay Bookman penned a response piece denouncing Lieutenant Governor (and 2026 gubernatorial candidate) Burt Jones' pitch to have Georgia ditch the state income tax. Bookman used liberal tools - facts, math and data - to make a cogent argument against Jones' scheme to put a greater burden on the poor and working class to fund the state's budget.------There's movement in the tussle to succeed U.S. Rep. Mike Collins. Thirty-year old state representative Houston Gaines has tossed his hat in the ring. On the left is Lexy Doherty, but there are rumors a conservative Democrat from Hall County is set to announce his run, too, but until verified, there's little to do but speculate. ------Georgia's two Democratic Senators joined a Bernie Sanders-led push to limit military aid to Israel.

Stacey Abrams is a prolific figure in American history. And although her bread and butter come from political organization and practicing law, a lot of her heart is wrapped up in writing. A writer with many titles to her name, her newest, Coded Justice puts forth a murder that may very well have been committed by a rogue AI system. Is it possible and of what is AI capable? We ask Stacey Abrams all these questions…join us.

Hold onto your hats Trawlers. Not the cheeriest episode ever recorded but the Trawl ladies do try to provide lightness where possible so begin by reflecting on some of the good things Labour have achieved in their first year, including more free school meals, nationalising steel and rail and recruiting 6, 700 more mental health workers. And yet, does any of it make up for their complicity in the ongoing genocide? The Trawl ladies certainly think not. Marina and Jemma discuss Rachel Reeve's crying in Parliament and the subsequent market fallout and enjoy Jonathan Pie's take as a clip. And then they drag on their waders as it's off to the swampy place that is US politics. Talk turns to Alligator Alcatrez and the amount of money Trump plans to spend on ICE. The figure will blow your minds and point to a very sinister truth. One which Stacy Abrams articulates beautifully. Of course the Trawl ladies talk about the tragic Texas floods and why Musk and Trump's cuts were partially responsible, along with devastating climate change of course. There's a smorgasbord of clips as ever and powerful tweets and threads and Instagram's and all the rest of it. Pudding is truly vintage - a historic vid of a silent movie star who, when it came to fascism in the 40's could no longer stay silent.

The show opens with additional thoughts on White House doctor Kevin O'Connor choosing to plead the 5th and claim doctor-patient confidentiality. Unfortunately, that last isn't really applicable, and, as we mentioned yesterday, providing full immunity wipes out the former. Attorney Alan Dershowitz says there is definitely and Epstein file because he needed to use it to defend himself. However, in so doing, he had to sign a non-disclosure, so he cannot reveal any names. Batya Ungar-Sargon agrees with my premise that it's a myth to believe Americans will not do the work that illegals are doing. It's a fallacy that keeps wages down and hurts the working class. This brings me to a literary moment about Milton's, “Paradise Lost,” where Lucifer said he would rather rule in Hell than serve in Heaven. It dovetails nicely into a comment from Stephen Miller about the desire to flood the Western nations with illegals in order to crush them. Sean Spicer weighs-in on how Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson doesn't know the difference between writing a legal argument and a Op-Ed. While we are on judicial activism, another district judge has decided anyone born here from illegals belongs in a protected class and has found a workaround to the SCOTUS ruling from a week ago. Dollar Store 44 refused to acknowledge that the calls for blood in the streets is coming from his own party. Stacey Abrams spreads fear porn. Marc Elias is worried about the call to criminally investigate James Comey and John Brennan. This leads to a discussion over color revolutions. We close with three positive items: Trump is imposing a 50% tariff on Brazil, Marco Rubio is imposing sanctions on the UN's Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese and we just locked in a deal for the US to be Germany's single-largest provider of liquified natural gas.

Inappropriate messages on X were removed by Elon Musk's artificial intelligence business xAI when Grok, the company's chatbot, started praising Adolf Hitler under the alias MechaHitler. Bad day for X as this comes on the same day X CEO Linda Yaccarino stepped down from his position. Also on the show, Stacey Abrams made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel and it was the opposite of what you expect from a late-night comedy show, we jump in the time machine and revisit Mr. Wizard's World, and we react to PERHAPS the Florida Man story of the year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Hysteria team is off this week. But we're excited to bring you a recent episode of Assembly Required with Stacey Abrams.In the first 100 days of the Trump Administration, we've watched Republicans erode American democracy with alarming speed. While this political moment may feel unprecedented, it isn't new. America has dealt its share of far-right movements, fascist provocateurs, and anti-democratic threats. But time and again, heroes have risen to meet those moments. In this episode, Stacey unpacks how we've fought fascism before – and won. She's joined by the host of MSNBC's The Rachel Maddow Show and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Prequel: An American Fight Against Fascism.Subscribe to Assembly Required wherever you get your podcasts and on YouTube.

Introducing Assembly Required with Stacey Abrams. Each week, Stacey breaks down the biggest issues we face into digestible, actionable items, introduces us to the warriors for good already working towards solutions, strategizes, and shares tangible ways to get involved. In this episode, Stacey talks to renowned chef, activist, and Top Chef judge Tom Colicchio about why the United States has a food insecurity crisis despite being the richest country in the world — and why this issue is especially pressing with an incoming Trump administration. They discuss what can be done to address the problem head on, including what Colicchio has learned from years of advocating for school lunches and solving for food deserts on Capitol Hill.

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum interview Atlanta’s former mayor–and now GA gubernatorial candidate–Keisha Lance Bottoms. And we’ll respond to some of your criticism… Last week we did an episode about migrant rights that some of y’all pushed back on in the comments. Some challenged the notion that we ought to stand alongside communities who, according to some, do not stand alongside the Black community. Moreover, we hear your criticism that y’all want to know what to do and not necessarily just a lecture. We’re here for this back-and-forth, let’s talk. Gubernatorial candidate Keisha Lance Bottoms tells us what she learned from Stacey Abrams near-miss in Georgia, offers a thought or two on the situation at FAMU, and opens up about her strategy to win rural voters. It’s not all about the ATL y’all! NLP will be joining the State of the People tour next Saturday 5/31 in Jackson Mississippi!

Glenn dismantles the Washington Post's wild claim that Trump's Oval Office renovations echo a “Sun King” dictatorship. Former U.S. Army Special Forces Sniper Tim Kennedy joins Glenn to tackle the veteran suicide crisis and the war on purpose, while blasting both Democrats and Republicans for sabotaging Trump and betraying allies like Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel. Kennedy makes the case that there's a looming Christian genocide in many regions of the Middle East. Glenn urges Washington state residents to flee over alarming new laws, including forced medical treatments during emergencies, Tesla profit-grabs, and pardons for convicted illegal aliens. Glenn and Stu debate Daniel Kahneman's assisted suicide at age 90. They also discuss corrupt judges shielding illegal aliens, Mike Lee's “judicial insurrection" claim, and Stacey Abrams' possible third run for Georgia governor despite a shady $2 billion Biden-linked grant.
