When Nobody Takes Responsibility, Nobody Has Responsibility




The Resistance Report with Robert Reich show

Summary: In this episode we begin with the White House's "Blame Obama Strategy" as it applies to the horrific events in Syria, and how it fits into a pattern of the Administration's avoiding blame at all costs. We then talk about how the national security staff and state department are being sidelined on issues like China and the Middle East in favor of... Jared Kushner? Also, how Bannon's removal from the NSC is connected to the failed healthcare strategy. Finally, Trump oddly has nice things to say about Bill O'Reilly in the wake of his reported sexual harassment settlements. I also take your questions regarding the GOP's strategy on Susan Rice, the order of presidential succession, what "block granting" means, and how the federal court system can be the neutral arbiters we need. Don't forget: another congressional recess is coming up. Find out how you can make sure your voice is heard at https://indivisibleguide.com.
