David Dayen on Day 1 and Beyond on the Nicole Sandler Show 1-21-25

      Although I truly despise the subject of today's show, I'm thrilled that David Dayen is returning to walk us through it. Dayen is one of the OG bloggers/journalists whose work I've appreciated since the beginning. For the past few years he's been the executive editor of THE AMERICAN PROSPECT, a magazine that should be on your daily reading list. They're online at prospect.org and, like this program, is not behind a paywall - though they also depend on your support and generosity to allow them to keep reporting the truth. Today, the Prospect staff published "Executive Action [...]

5-31-23 Nicole Sandler Show – David Dayen and the Debt Ceiling Dance Deja Vu

  https://redirect.zencastr.com/r/episode/6477d83155545819566d427b/audio-files/5e0cc41aa9798f001400ff98/e8b7ac55-e4f9-42c5-9f2c-a583dbe04d76.mp3     The House today is voting on the Biden-McCarthy deal to raise the ridiculous debt ceiling. David Dayen of The American Prospect returns to the show today to bring us up to date on what's happening and how we got here. I call it a deja vu because we've had this conversation before -- 12 years ago, in fact. On July28, 2011, we talked on this program about President Obama's deal with a Republican-led Congress, the first time the GOP weaponized this ridiculous provision that allows the good faith and credit of the US to be threatened. [...]

Flashback Friday June 21, 2013 Live from Netroots Nation in San Jose

Instead of repeating a show that just recently ran, I like to use these days to jump in the wayback machine. I've been hosting this show online since Air America went off the air on January 21, 2010-- the same day the Supreme Court ruled on Citizen's United.  There's lots to choose from. Today, we go back nine years. It was a fun, live broadcast from Netroots Nation in San Jose. The show ran over two hours that day. This is sloppily edited for time. If you want to see the whole thing, it's at on YouTube. But here's the [...]

6-24-22 (Cy)Nicole Sandler Show – The End of Roe, Now Entering Gilead

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!) Yesterday, the illegitimate Supreme Court did away with any concealed carry regulations in NYC or elsewhere, thereby saying states rights? Who needs any stinkin' states rights, right? Today, they overturned 50 years of settled law by overturning Roe v Wade, invoking states' rights. They hypocrisy is blatant. So, a group of House Democrats went to the Capitol steps to sing "God Bless America". Seriously. Then after passing a toothless gun bill they all leave town on another two-week vacation (in advance of the [...]

4-11-22 Nicole Sandler Show – David Dayen Explains What’s Happening

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   It's Monday. A new week with a whole lot of news, most of it not good at all. Putin's war on Ukraine is raging -- President Zelinsky says many thousands of Ukrainians have been killed, and he needs help from the rest of the world. Inflation continues growing (a global problem not unique to the US) and gas prices keep rising (same thing -- a global problem). The American right is getting scarier by the minute, and they're accusing the left of [...]

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!) The American Prospect magazine has a special edition out right now, dealing with our Supply Chain crisis. Do you understand the Supply Chain? I don't... but I do grok a bit more since I've read some of the special issue, and will know more this afternoon, after TAP Executive Editor David Dayen guests on my show to try to explain the problem/s. So rather than trying to state here what David Dayen will explain to us, I'll direct you to prospect.org, and more [...]

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!) The New Year has begun. I wanted to start the year with a guest who can explain what's on tap for 2022, and couldn't think of a better person than David Dayen for that. Dayen is executive editor of The American Prospect, which should be a stop in your morning reading, if you care about being informed. He has an article posted today, "2022: The Year in Governing" in which he outlines basically everything to look out for over the next 12 months. [...]

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   Well, it certainly was a week. On Monday I told you to strap in for a roller coaster ride... and now it's Friday and this ride really sucks. It's all so complicated, so I've invited one of the very best of the journalists who keeps me informed, David Dayen, executive editor of the American Prospect magazine to try to wrap up the week, such as it was, for us. Read David's article, "The Progressive Caucus Wields Power," then listen to our conversation. [...]

The first Jan 6 insurrectionist was sentenced. It's Infrastructure Summer with votes set for Wednesday. You get the idea.
