The Nicole Sandler Show

It's Friday, and some of us made it through this week. What a week it was. The sitting president incited his cult followers to insurrection. I'll have the latest news on the efforts to deep the traitor Trump from damaging our nation any further in the 12 days left before he's evicted from the White House. After the very serious news, I'll correct a case of mistaken identity (it WASN'T Jeff Daniels, but really a talented man named Bruce W. Nelson!). And Deborah Newell Tornello returns for an Oy FloriDUH session. It's long past time to shine a spotlight on the idiots that inhabit our state, now including Donald Trump.

A bit of what's news for now

The day we've been dreading for four years happened yesterday, and we have 13 days of terror ahead of us if something is not done about the cult leader still occupying the oval office first. We'll go over what happened, and what the response has been- including both Schumer and Pelosi calling for Trump to be removed by the 25th Amendment or they'll start impeachment proceedings again. It's Thursday, so Howie Klein is back with us. We have much to talk about today.

A bit of what's news for now

As I was getting ready for today's show - which usually starts at 5pm ET- I was watching our country under attack from Donald Trump's cult-like followers, incited by him. I was so angry and yelling at the TV, so I figured I should just go on the air earlier than usual. So I did. This is the pre-show. The previous episode posted is the 5-6pm hour.

As I was watching the insurrection unfold in DC today, I decided to hit the air earlier than usual today. The podcast of the pre-show show will be posted next. We had an office re-start at our usual showtime, so this is part 2 of an extended show today during which I watched the storming of the Capitol live as it happened. Harvey J. Kaye was my guest.

A bit of what's news, for now

It's Election Day in Georgia, and this election will determine which party controls the US Senate. Literally everything in on the line today. And tomorrow, the outgoing president will attempt a coup to overturn the will of the people who voted him out of office in the last election. And it's the first Tuesday of 2021, so @GottaLaff will be here as usual to join me as we try to make sense of it all... or make fun of it all...

A bit of what's news for now

We did it! We survived 2020. There are no assurances that 2021 will be any better, except for the fact that in 16 days, Donald Trump will be evicted from the White House and we can start the journey back to sanity. But he's not leaving quietly! Over the holidays, Trump escalated his gaslighting and attempts at upending Democracy to levels not seen before, certainly not in modern history. And this week-- the first week of the new year, promise to be at least very challenging. David Dayen, Executive Editor of The American Prospect joins me right at the top of the show to try to explain what transpired over the last two weeks, and what we can expect this week and up through inauguration day. Dramamine or something much stronger will likely be necessary.
