Emptywheel Fridays on the Nicole Sandler Show 2-7-25

    Although it feels like another decade, we've reached the end of the third workweek of the D'ump 2.0 administration and it is the shit show we anticipated. But the Democrats in the House and Senate finally seem to get getting the hang of fighting back and protecting our democracy. Each Friday, I'm joined by one of the best independent journalists working to keep us informed, Marcy Wheeler. Emptywheel.net is her home base, and it should be on your daily reading list. As this week comes to an end, there's a lot to digest. Digestion is difficult when your [...]

She’s Back! Tuesday with GottaLaff on the Nicole Sandler Show 2-4-25

  Well, technically, she's there, in Canada, and back on the show for today. GottaLaff (known to many as Laffy) is an old friend who used to do a weekly segment with me on this show for many years. She began working to move from Southern California to Canada when the orange menace was in office the first time, a process that took until this past year when she & Mr. Laffy were able to get residency and officially move. Between the move and the stress of doing this work, appearing weekly with me got to be too much for [...]

Another F’ing Monday with More F’ing News on the Nicole Sandler Show 2-3-25

The coup is in full swing and we're not going to take it. I just had to say that right off the bat. D'ump went golfing this weekend, but on days 12 & 13 of this unconstitutional regime, his minions were hard at work... especially Elon Musk, WHO NOBODY CAST A SINGLE VOTE FOR. He has seized parts of the US Treasury that pays our bills and installed some kids barely out of high school who have access to all Americans' most sensitive data. They told us what they were going to do in Project 2025, that the Convicted Felon [...]

6-29-22 Nicole Sandler Show – Now It’s Your Turn

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   For the past few weeks (and more), we've been listening. Listening to the J6 hearings and the witnesses. Listening to the cable pundits. Listening to the lies from today's Republicans who are covering for the biggest con ever run on this country by the orange con man Don himself. We've been listening to the opinions of an illegitimate court about which nothing is supreme; the Extreme Court is more like it. So today, it's your turn to use your voice. I'm taking [...]

6-6-22 Nicole Sandler Show – Stealing the Vote vs Protecting It with Heidi Przybyla

  Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!) I often speak of Opposite World. I first noticed the alternate universe mostly inhabited by Republicans during the Bush years, when people of a certain right wing persuasion just decided they'd not believe facts inconvenient to their beliefs. They put forth no argument, engage in no debate, just simply said something to the effect of "I don't believe you," and off they went on their merry, alternative facts kind of way. Things got worse during the Obama years, as the GOP turned [...]

10-11-21 Nicole Sandler Show – Looking for Answers with Dave Johnson

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!) I really tried to unplug this weekend and remove myself from politics, news and the rest of the insanity that's stressing me out during the week. I was somewhat successful, but big questions keep cutting through the calm. I had stopped watching Bill Maher, as he finally completed his long-in-the-works jumping of the shark last week when he defended the vaccine and mask deniers. So I didn't watch him Friday night. But his warning about what's in store for us pierced my peaceful [...]

8-9-21 Nicole Sandler Show – Dept of Injustice with Marcy Wheeler

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)     The US Department of Justice has been walking a tightrope for years now. While promising Equal Justice Under the Law, it more realistically offers a system of Injustice and Inequality. Throughout the Trump term, the DOJ struggled to maintain any semblance of integrity. And in the final days of his presidency, the former guy attempted a coup, using the Attorney General to do his dirty work. Details of just how close we came to losing our democracy are now coming to [...]

1-11-21 Nicole Sandler Show – Impeachment, Insurrection, Incompetence

Download here or click below to play     The Democrats introduced an article of impeachment against Trump this morning. They're charging him with inciting a mob of his supporters to carry out a violent attack on the Capitol in a bid to overturn Joe Biden's election victory, also known as insurrection. The incompetence portion of the program today is dedicated to Floriduh, as the Florida Democratic Party has proven itself to be just that. Today, I'm joined by two guests. First, Brendan O'Connor, author of the forthcoming book, Blood Red Lines: How Nativism Fuels the Right. Brendan has a [...]
