WEAPONS OF MASK DECEPTION

Science has shown that when both the infected and uninfected are all wearing masks, the chances of catching Covid is greatly reduced. And, some of those in their 20s who catch Covid appear to have lifetime damage, like becoming diabetic or even developing dementia. So why does the right-wing remain so opposed to steps like mandatory mask wearing or shutting down public places?And- did the protests against George Floyd's murder spread Covid?.. Do Republicans really think not wearing a mask constitutes 'liberty'?.. Does conservative propaganda mean that we have lost the ability as a people to consider any problem in a serious way?.. Meanwhile, Trump is fighting in the Supreme Court to let insurance companies reject anyone with a pre-existing condition. What bearing will the 1905 decision 'Massachusetts versus Jacobson' endorsing quarantine measures have on the course of events?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What effect will all of this have come November? How can we take inspiration from the way FDR responded to the first Great Depression?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

CAN AMERICA RECOVER FROM TRUMP?

Greg Palast joins Thom to discuss the latest news from states where voting is underway and how it is being manipulated to the advantage of the Republicans. What a surprise! Republicans like Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump laugh at the idea of democracy, while the American working class lays shattered on the ground.The question now is: “Can America and democracy recover? And, if so, how long will it take and where should we begin to rebuild our country?

COULD THIS BE A TURNING POINT?

Are conservative Americans waking up to Trump's incompetence and greed? But even if they do, history will remember the cowardice of the Republicans who have supported this traitorous administration. Does Mike Pence wearing a mask mark the day Mike Pence began running for president?And-- why didn't anybody tell Trump he had toilet paper stuck to his shoe?
