Emptywheel Friday (the 13th) – Nicole Sandler Show 6-13-25

      Every Friday, Emptywheel.net's Marcy Wheeler joins Nicole Sandler to recap much of went down since we spoke the Friday before. We usually start the show amazed at just how much had happened in a week, but today seems to be in a new category altogether. We knew at the start that we'd be running a bit longer than usual, and on Fridays we do tend to run over the one hour this show usually runs. Today, we were dealing with the inept and grossly incompetent Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's congressional testimony this week, Trump's unconstitutional deployment [...]

Gaslighting vs Truth, ICE begets Fire, David Dayen on LA Protests and More – Nicole Sandler Show 6-11-25

The gaslighting underscores our need for real, courageous, independent news sources and the call to support them.

Dysfunctional America on the Streets & in the Boardroom – Nicole Sandler Show 6-10-25

These are scary times in our country. The incompetent orange idiot occupying the White House is doing everything we were afraid he'd do if he took power again. In advance of his North Korea-style military salute to himself happening this Saturday on the streets of Washington DC, he's created a showdown with mostly peaceful protesters who've been exercising their constitutional rights in a small sliver of downtown Los Angeles. He's breaking norms and the constitution by using military force against the American public to create a spectacle, take the media's attention away from the [...]

The More Things Change…

...the more they stay the same. The photographer who shot that iconic photo at the top of the page was arrested last night in Ferguson, MO. Scott Olsen, a photojournalist for Getty Images, has brought the reality of what's happening in Ferguson to the rest of the world via his amazing photos, many of which can be seen here.  Apparently, the police didn't want Olsen doing his job where he was standing- as if they wanted him to do his job at all.. Scott Olsen wasn't the only member of the media arrested last night. We know of at least [...]
