She does a better job of covering the actual news dealing with national security and the various investigations into the former guy (and all news items related) at Emptywheel.net than I see anywhere in the corporate mainstream press. I'm honored that Marcy checks in with us every 3-4 weeks or so, and fills the hour [...]

5-4-21 Nicole Sandler Show – Gimme Some Truth, FOIA Style with Jason Leopold

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   Jason Leopold was dubbed “the FOIA Terrorist” by the Bush Administration, and the name stuck because Jason appropriated it! He utilizes FOIA better and more effectively than anyone else in the news business. I had scheduled Jason to join us today because it had been a while since we’d spoken, and was pleasantly surprised to awaken this morning to a new scoop from Jason and his FOIA prowess. Today is May 4 -- as in May the Fourth... and Shirley Serban made [...]

3-6-20 Nicole Sandler Show – Ending a Brutal Week with Jason Leopold & Digby

Download here or click below to play   We made it to the end of a horrible week that included a brutal Super Tuesday, the end of a number of campaigns, a stock market crash and the global explosion of the coronavirus. We have two great guests today: Jason Leopold of BuzzFeed News whose lawsuit might bring us the unredacted Mueller Report (read about it here), and OG blogger Heather "Digby" Parton (find her blog here, and at Salon here) to help me muddle through this crazy week that was!

7-24-19 Nicole Sandler Show – It’s Mueller Time

   Today's the day that Robert Mueller is on Capitol Hill to testify before both the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees. Since the hearings were still in progress at showtime, we carried the last half-hour live, and then did a bit of wrap up and discussion. My overall impression? We're fucked, and not in a good way. For our comedy interlude, I played a video that a friend  sent me this morning in honor of  Boris Johnson becoming the new Prime Minister of Great Britain. This one's for you, Boris.

Bringing the Mueller Report to Life

  The biggest problem with the Mueller Report is how few people actually have read it! The Democrats are doing a lousy job of countering the gaslighting from the Trump administration and the Attorney General about what's in it. Their claims of "no obstruction, no collusion" are intrinsically wrong. I had never heard of Law Works before yesterday, when I learned that their website would be streaming a live play in which famous actors would read parts of the Mueller Report. I was intrigued. So we watched, and were blown away. The Investigation: A Search for the Truth in Ten [...]

5-21-19 Nicole Sandler Show -McGahn No Show, Ratf*%ked & Gerrymandered with Dave Daley

  It's yet another busy day in America as Donald Trump seems to be inside a slow moving train wreck. Either that, or he's the wrecking ball that'll destroy this nation. We begin today's show with the latest news, including Don McGahn's no show at today's scheduled congressional hearing, and Trump being ordered to comply with a subpoena for his financial records. As the nation watches in horror as state after state passes draconian new abortion laws, David Daley - author of Ratfucked: Why Your Vote Doesn’t Count - explains the role that partisan gerrymandering is playing in our nation's [...]

It's a busy Wednesday! Attorney General William Barr is testifying today before the Senate Judiciary Committee about the Mueller Report. We already had political strategist (and Bernie Sanders' biggest critic in 2016) Peter Daou booked for today's interview segment to discuss his evolution and his new book, Digital Civil War: Confronting The Far-Right Menace, when my standing request for an interview with Senator Bernie Sanders came through. So buckle in for a fun ride today!

4-24-19 Nicole Sandler Show – The Truth with Mike Stark and Marcy Wheeler

It's a busy Wednesday on the Nicole Sandler Show. We'll start with independent video journalist Mike Stark who was arrested and is being railroaded for reporting while Democratic. Read his story and see the video evidence exonerating him here.  If you're able and so inclined, I hope you'll visit his GoFundMe page and help. At the bottom of the hour, we turn the page and talk with Marcy Wheeler, who's found at emptywheel.net, where she devoured the entire (redacted) Mueller Report and shares what she learned with us. Seriously, if you're not reading the report itself, go read Marcy. If [...]
