First, yet another accuser piles on Brett Kavanaugh and the Rape-publicans. // Next, Thom interviews Professor Kathleen Hall Jamieson, author of 'Cyberwar: How Russian Hackers and Trolls Helped Elect a President' to see what evidence she's compiled that the Russians swayed our election in favor of Trump // Representative Mark Pocan takes listener from the swarm of outraged progressives. // Thom reads from the afterword of 'The American Revolution of 1800' by Dan Sissom. // Talk Media News' Ellen Ratner calls in from the United Nations, where Trump just ran a meeting of the Security Council- Ellen tells us about the conservative woman waiting in Kavanaugh's wings, and Trump's new blood-stocked million dollar limousine, and other stories. // And Thom reminds us what is at stake if the billionaire-libertarian-Republican-grifters get control of the judicial branch of government- and how does that connect to Trump's threats to shut down the FBI investigation into his campaign by potentially firing the Justice Department's Rod Rosenstein? And why are Wilbur Ross, Paul Manafort, and so many others around Trump seem to be tied to Russian money? // Finally, listener Mary asks what it will take for the Democrats to get angry?
