The Resistance Report with Robert Reich

We discuss the impact of Big Money on both sides of the political aisle, and the direct line between the current tax reform push and big corporations and Wall Street. But there's also big money coming from high tech as well and Big Pharma. So what's the possibility of getting rid of 'crony capitalism' and putting some limits on big money in American politics?

We look at the center of the Republican party and Trump's agenda: tax cuts for the rich and corporations. We also look at the lies coming out of the administration saying these are tax cuts for the middle class.

We look at three things: 1) Trump's foreign policy 2) The 25th Amendment and the possibility of removing Trump, and 3) Trump's cruelty to children and his war on women

Let's talk about you and the anxiety, despair, and stress that so many Americans are feeling. This comes in the wake of what happened in Las Vegas, and Trump and Congressional Republicans' unwillingness to do anything to control gun violence and mass killings. But it has also been compounding over the last few months of Trump's assaults on social justice and our nation's ideals. It may feel like Trump is an abusive father hurting our nation, but do not underestimate your collective power to oppose him. You are the leader you are waiting for.

The topic is guns in the US. We talk about the difficulty the country has with debating how to regulate firearms, and why we must use the tragedy in Las Vegas to rekindle the debate despite conservative calls to not politicize the incident. This is a crisis of public safety. It is up to our political leaders to stop the carnage.

Talking to Bernie Sanders in my office about Medicare-for-all, Graham-Cassidy and more.

Let's look at the controversy over Donald Trump's criticism of the NFL and the players and coaches' responses. We also talk more about the Muslim ban, Trump and Kim Jon-un's escalatory back-and-forth, and the fundamental question of what patriotism is about.

On this episode of the Resistance Report, we look at: 1) What's happening right now with a last-ditch attempt by Republicans to, believe it or not, repeal the ACA; 2) The latest news about taxes, with Republicans saying there will be no tax cuts for the wealthy, in opposition to all the information that shows the weatlhy will actually receive a huge tax cut from their plan; and 3) What is happening with Mueller's investigation, and its effect on the White House

For today’s Resistance Report, we’ll be tracking issues we must not lose sight of: news on the Emoluments clause, an update on Medicare-for-all, dangerous new provisions in the Republican budget proposal, and more.

Today we are looking at how hurricanes Harvey and Irma have expose conservative hypocrisies surrounding building regulations, chemical regulations, social insurance, and climate change policies. And, of course, your questions.

Today we talk about all things tax-related from the Republican view of taxes. There is a disagreement amongst conservatives between the Freedom Caucus deficit-scolds and Wall Street corporate interests. One side wants to lower the deficit to zero while the other calls for big tax cut for the wealthy and corporations. The truth is you can't do both, and we'll see why in today's report.

On today's Resistance Report, we contextualize Trump's move to end the DACA program for Dreamers. These are people who came to the US illegally with their parents, as infants, and are Americans in every way. Trump's decision to revoke the Obama-era rule that allows them to remain in the country affects over 800,000 people. What does this mean for their future, the future of the country, and how does it fit in with Trump's recent agenda? All this, and your questions.

Today I'm talking with Randy Bryce, who is running for Congress in Wisconsin's 1st district. Tune in as we discuss the future of the democratic party and his bid to defeat Paul Ryan in 2018.

On tonight's Resistance Report we talk about Hurricane Harvey, how the people of Houston are helping each other, and how Trump's budget affects climate policy and disaster relief.

Today we are talking about the ongoing investigation into Trump’s business dealings with Russia and how Trump is responding by riling up his base. His behavior over the past three days harms a lot of innocent people, particularly children who were brought here as immigrants, and transgender Americans. Why all the cruelty recently? We've got the answer.
