Scott Ellis is very much in favor of California’s Prop 40 which would collect 5% of the wealth of the State’s 250 billionaires to replace Trump’s cuts to healthcare. He cites inequitable taxation as one good reason. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/XXQg5-zwEUo

Scott Ellis explains how excessive wealth playing in politics dilutes your own vote and threatens democracy. He’s right. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/XXQg5-zwEUo

From the Bible, "To whom much is given, much is required." Scott Ellis says we can’t count on the super-rich to do the right thing, to use their wealth for the common good. We must demand it through tax reform. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/XXQg5-zwEUo

I asked Scott Ellis, of Patriotic Millionaires, about income inequality. But he thought that framing was wrong. Not income, but wealth is the proper way to look at the problem and that rich people have been purposely misleading us. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/XXQg5-zwEUo

Proposition 40 in California, if passed next Tuesday, will collect 5% of the wealth of the State’s 250 billionaires. Scott Ellis supports it because the extreme concentration of wealth is the root cause of many of our problems. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/XXQg5-zwEUo

Twelve Days to the Midterms and three top political reporters on the state of the race and Donald Trump’s campaign “strategy.” bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/BtwNK-_lrSI

"As much as anything he has done, Trump's avowed destruction of Hains Point [Public Park] reveals what a mean, vindictive, greedy, uncaring, evil, egomaniacal man he is - and reminds us how important it is to stop him in his tracks on Nov. 3." bit.ly/My-Column

And who was the Queen’s least favorite President? Again, not Trump. It had to do with an errant (and definitely against protocol) kiss. Another inside story from the great Susan Page from her book, The Queen and Her Presidents. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/CexuX8Z6504

You might recall that the first time the Obamas visited the Queen in England, Michelle Obama caused a huge scandal by touching the Queen. Susan Page has the inside story on how it went down. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/CexuX8Z6504

So who was the Queen’s favorite President? Not Donald Trump. But Ronald Reagan. For a variety of reasons, but the biggest was… bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/CexuX8Z6504

Susan Page’s book on the Queen and Her Presidents has so much juicy material, I sat down with her for second time. From our conversation at The Hill Center, she revealed how a gift from Michelle Obama led to a subtle dig at Trump. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/CexuX8Z6504

Forget March Madness. It's Midterm Madness! And these four top DC journalists dig through the muck and surface the facts and analysis we need to know. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/pIKTRphW7ZA

America is a democracy. But the Christian Nationalists want America to be a theocracy. They want us to be governed by the Bible. Not the Constitution. This is how they are doing it. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/3F6PRNaq2QQ

We need to crush the GOP in the Mid-terms because when I asked Congressman Jared Huffman whether we should be worried about this infiltration at the highest levels of government by these ant-democratic religious extremists. He gave a very clear answer. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen

A story I did not know. Remember Liz Cheney? Resistance Hero. A stalwart of the J6 Committee. But she did something really destructive to the final report. She vetoed any discussion of Christion Nationalism’s role on January 6th. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/3F6PRNaq2QQ

Another reason to vote Blue No Matter Who: We can’t put very serious and committed extreme Christian Nationalist Moses Mike Johnson back in the Speaker’s chair. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/3F6PRNaq2QQ

So important is the threat of Christian Nationalism, that I talked with Jared Huffman again. This time before a live audience at The Hill center in Washington DC. Here's the origin story and the current danger. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/3F6PRNaq2QQ

We are 26 days from the midterms and this week’s panel of hard-working reporters have been traveling the country, parsing the polls, and talking to political insiders. Join us to get the inside scoop on the midterms. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/v_rK7HXTtv4

When I was reading Kai Bird’s really, really good biography of Roy Cohn, Cohn’s evil acts made me want to take a shower after each chapter. I asked Bird how he slept at night. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/FvB4J7mezHw

During his first term, Donald Trump reportedly asked (“very strongly” as Trump would say) “Where is my Roy Cohn?” I asked Cohn biographer Kai Bird what Trump meant by that. bit.ly/Click-2-Listen YouTu.be/FvB4J7mezHw
