Podcasts about whether donald trump

As a longtime journalist and the co-founder of Transparency International, myboldb friend Frank Vogl has always the nose for a good story. So it was particularly interesting to get Frank's take on the incoming Trump administration, especially since he just wrote an interesting piece about how money didn't buy the election for Trump. But given that the art of the (digital) deal is Trump's only real motivator, what exactly should we expect of a reborn Donald Trump? Might the Trump 2.0 regime, for example, be a semi-legal version of Sam Bankman-Fried/FTX and will we remember this new administration as the Bitcoin Presidency?Frank Vogl is the co-founder of two leading international non-governmental organizations fighting corruption -- Transparency International and the Partnership for Transparency Fund (Frank is the Chair of the PTF Board).  He teaches at Georgetown University, writes regular "blog" articles on corruption for theGlobalist.com and lectures extensively.  Frank is also a specialist in international economics and finance with more than 50 years of experience in these fields - first as an international journalist, then as the Director of Information & Public Affairs at the World Bank official and, from 1990 to 2017, as the president and CEO of a consulting firm, Vogl Communications Inc.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

In a compelling development, insiders have revealed that should Donald Trump emerge victorious in this year's presidential election, the U.S Department of Justice (DOJ) plans on exploring legal cases against him past Inauguration Day. Despite the common idiom, the finish line for federal prosecutors wouldn't be the Election Day, instead, it would stretch beyond, till the day the he is inaugurated.Exploring legal issues concerning individuals holding or running for the office of the president certainly isn't uncharted territory. However, it is worthy to note the potential implications this development could have. Traditionally, the progression of cases against an incumbent president has followed a legally complex and diplomatically sensitive route. With this potential extension of investigation, it would mean that even after being elected and assuming office, the President could face ongoing federal prosecution.Contrarily, if Donald Trump does not win, the Justice Department's plans underline the likelihood of his imminent legal struggles. As an ordinary citizen, Donald Trump could face prosecution for any number of ongoing investigations untethered by the protection offered to a sitting president. Meanwhile, as the 2020 U.S. Election drama unfolds, the name 'Jack Smith' has also come to light. Smith, who has been less than vocal about his political views, is now connected to Donald Trump, although details of how remain undisclosed. How Jack Smith fits into the tapestry woven around Trump's legal predicaments is yet undoubtedly an intriguing facet to observant political enthusiasts.These developments fuel ongoing debates about the extent of legal immunity that leaders should be accorded and how it affects the democratic fabric of a nation. Furthermore, it underscores the importance of utmost transparency and ethical conduct in political leaders, especially in those occupying the highest seat of power. What this eventually means for the Trump administration should he win, and what role Jack Smith plays, remains to be seen.Thus, in a year saturated with surprising turns in political events, this latest revelation promises to add another riveting chapter. Whether Donald Trump triumphs on Election Day or not, it appears that his dance with the justice system is far from over. After all, the wheels of justice, although slowly, grind exceedingly fine.

A Washington DC appeals court is hearing arguments over whether Donald Trump is immune from prosecution for his actions after the 2020 election.  Trump looked on as his legal team sought to convince a panel of three judges that former presidents should not be prosecuted for actions they took in office.  He argues he was working in his official capacity as President to ensure election integrity.  US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Tim Dower that Trump's lawyers have argued that prosecuting a former president would open a Pandora's box.  He says Trump's in the hearing room today, where the panel is hearing his bid to have the case thrown out, but they seem sceptical.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Across the country in Georgia, Arizona, and North Carolina, candidacy challenges have bubbled up in courthouses seeking to knock politicians off the ballot for their alleged support of "insurrection" on Jan. 6. On Friday, the challengers advanced farther than ever before toward that goal in a evidentiary hearing in Atlanta, where Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) had been forced to testify under oath about her activities before the attack on the U.S. Capitol.The lawyer who faced off against Greene inside that administrative courtroom opened up on his interrogation in the latest episode of Law&Crime's podcast "Objections: with Adam Klasfeld," tackling such questions as the historical meaning of insurrection and whether candidacy challenges like these are leading up to an effort to disqualify Donald Trump in 2024."One step at a time," remarked attorney Andrew Celli, in an interview recorded two days after he went toe-to-toe against Greene.At the heart of the candidacy challenges is the third section of the 14th Amendment, ratified after the Civil War and barring anyone who swears an oath to the Constitution from engaging in or aiding an insurrection against it. Greene took her oath of office on Jan. 3, 2021, and for the challengers, her actions over the ensuing three days was enough to trigger that constitutional remedy. A federal judge already has allowed them to advance that challenge on the law.Indiana University Law Professor Gerard Magliocca also speaks on this episode about his testimony in Greene's case about how insurrection historically has been understood in the United States.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Whether Donald Trump wins his reelection or Joe Biden defeats him in November, there will be a time when America moves on from Donald Trump as president. In this segment on "Catching Up", Alex discusses his long articulated thesis that in some ways Donald Trump was a necessary evil to bring all the negative aspects of America to the surface. Alex, a Trump critic, finds that the silver lining of Trump is that he may force America to have the conversation that it keeps denying itself. He uses a metaphor involving the day after a brutal hangover, in order to talk about how Trump brought to the surface all the rage and bile that everyone was feeling. It seems like America had been in denial about their problem for a long time, and "sometimes it takes a bad hangover to realize that you need to drink less." 

Whether Donald Trump wins or loses the upcoming presidential election, the shift in Republican values he has ushered in is sure to outlast him. What aspects of Trump's legacy will the next generation of conservatism cling to, and under whose leadership? In July, historian and writer Thomas Meaney braved the Ritz-Carlton in Washington, D.C., for the inaugural National Conservatism Conference, where a diverse group of pundits and thinkers of the nationalist right gathered to argue these questions, hoping to extract a winning ideology from the jumble of recent history; his report is the cover story for Harper's Magazine's February issue. Amid speeches by futurist tech entrepreneur Peter Thiel, talk-show host Tucker Carlson, and former national security advisor John Bolton, Meaney depicts an exuberant and contradictory scene, bound together less by a specific platform—for now, at least—than by a common enemy, the “cosmopolitan” liberal elite. In this episode, web editor Violet Lucca speaks with Thomas Meaney about the resuscitation of the right-wing political theories of James Burnham, the degree of relation between national conservatism and white nationalism, and why an event like the National Conservatism Conference might be the best place to read the future of the movement. Read Meaney's story here: https://harpers.org/archive/2020/02/trumpism-after-trump/ This episode was produced by Violet Lucca and Andrew Blevins.

The child of Haitian-born parents, Fugees co-founder Pras Michél has always felt an affinity for the Caribbean nation and the long-suffering Haitian people. After a devastating earthquake hit Haiti in 2010 and the government seemed incapable of or uninterested in helping ease the people’s plight, Pras helped recruit hugely popular musician Michel Martelly, a.k.a. “Sweet Micky,” to run for president. Martelly’s successful campaign is documented in the new film “Sweet Micky For President” (http://www.sweetmickyforpresident.com)  In this wide-ranging interview with The Young Turks’ Jayar Jackson, Pras talks about: - The role of protests in a democratic society - How the Arab Spring and other movements abroad may finally be coming to the United States - What was different about the University of Missouri football team’s protest - and why it succeeded - How the LA Clippers could have made more of an impact to protest against owner Donald Sterling’s racist comments - Whether health care should be a right or a privilege - The Obama legacy - Whether Donald Trump has a real shot at winning the presidency - Sweet Micky as a man of the people and whether fellow Fugee Wyclef Jean could have also won.

Harvard Law Professor and longtime political activist Lawrence Lessig wants to win the presidency of the United States to accomplish one critical objective: ending the corrupting influence of money on politics. With that done, he says he’ll step down and let someone else take over the Oval Office. It’s a radical notion, the single-issue presidential candidacy, but as he points out, only a radical solution can wrest back control of our democracy from the monied interests who have steadily come to dominate American political life. In this exclusive interview, Lessig and The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur discuss: - The Kickstarter campaign that will decide whether Lessig officially runs for president. - Why, even if one of them were to become president, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton have no hope of eliminating money from politics. - Why the American people would get behind a one-issue candidacy to get money out of politics. - Why the Democratic party is as guilty as Republicans for the current corrupt system. - Whether Donald Trump’s candidacy is helpful or harmful to the cause of money in politics. - The Three Prongs of Political Corruption that a Citizen Equality Act would deal with. - Whether he would govern as president on other issues while trying to pass the Citizen Equality Act. - How the fight against money in politics is the Civil Rights issue of our time, and that now is when the American people need to come together in shared sacrifice to take back democracy.
