4-28-17 Nicole Sandler Show – Stealing Elections and More with Greg Palast

Tomorrow marks D'ump's 100th day in office, but it feels like so much longer. Tomorrow also marks the 25th anniversary of the LA riots that stemmed from the verdict in the Rodney King beating by cops trial. Both events leave me with the same pit in my stomach. So it was great to speak with one of my all-time favorite guests today. Greg Palast is a journalist, author and filmmaker who recently updated The Best Democracy Money Can Buy to show how D'ump's buddies rigged the election in his favor. Visit GregPalast.com, follow him on Twitter and Facebook, and listen to [...]

As the official election recount gets underway in Wisconsin, Greg Palast joined me on the show today to talk about what happened. He firmly believes the election was stolen.

Knowing Greg was coming on the show today, I finally sat down to watch it and was [...]

Out Sick

  If you've listened to the show regularly, you know that I rarely take a morning off. But I must do that today. I'm still sidelined by whatever it is that has been trying to keep me down for a couple of weeks already... So, I'll be resting, as per the doctor's orders. Today, during our regular time together, I invite you to listen to any of my past shows,  all available for your listening or viewing pleasure at those links. On our 24/7 stream, I'll be playing back the August 15 show, which featured a must-hear conversation with Greg [...]

Peace & Palast

What a difference a day makes! The protests last night in Ferguson, MO were of a much different tone - because the police that were present actually joined with the people of the community, marching with them, listening to them. In the photo above, the uniformed man marching next to a woman carrying a sign is Captain Ron Johnson, the head of the Missouri State Troopers, now charged with heading up the law enforcement effort in Ferguson. The day began with more of what the people were asking for: the name of the officer who shot Michael Brown: Darren Wilson. [...]

Oil Spills, Birth Control and Religious Hypocrisy

The Supreme Court today heard a challenge to the Affordable Care Act's mandated coverage of contraceptives. Two cases of corporations owned by religious zealots trying to impose their religious beliefs on their employees while claiming their religious rights are being infringed upon (welcome to opposite world) were rolled into this one hearing before the highest court in the land. It looks like the audio from today's arguments won't be posted until Friday. When it is posted, it will be found here.) Meanwhile, the Obama administration just lifted the ban that kept BP from pursuing new leases in the Gulf of [...]

The Day We Fight Back

A coalition of  activist groups, companies, and online platforms - and sites like this one - are joining forces today to fight back against the NSA's surveillance program. This day of activism was announced on the eve of the anniversary of the tragic passing of activist and technologist Aaron Swartz. The protest is both in his honor and in celebration of the victory over the Stop Online Piracy Act two years ago this month, which he helped spur. Participants including Access, Demand Progress, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Fight for the Future, Free Press, BoingBoing, Reddit, Mozilla, ThoughtWorks, and more to come, will [...]

Voting Rights…Or Not

  Welcome to democracy's nightmare.  Today, it comes in the form of a lawsuit brought by Shelby County, Alabama challenging the Voting Rights Act working its way up to the Supreme Court.  More specifically, the part of the Voting Rights Act under attack today is Section 5 of the law that gives the Justice Department the right to review any changes in voting procedure proposed by a county or state that's covered under this provision before it's enacted. Greg Palast, author of Billionaires and Ballot Bandits, has been covering the subject of voter suppression efforts for years now, and has [...]
