The Nicole Sandler Show

As 2020 continues on its trek to be the strangest year yet in American history, I'm always looking for the best guests with whom to commiserate. Today, it's the return of one of my favorites! Elie Mystal is Justice Correspondent for The Nation. A graduate of Harvard Law, Elie covers the courts, the criminal justice system, and politics—and the writes The Nation's monthly column "Objection!". I'll pick his brain on everything from last week's Supreme Court hearings streamed in real time, to AG Bill Barr's recent moves to undo due process in the US, to Trump's obvious mental and psychological decay and more. Elie Mystal joins in at the 30 minute mark, after the latest news, something humorous, and a bit of commentary...

t's another Tuesday at home. Parts of the country have begun opening up again, but there seems to be an ideological divide about taking precautions against the virus. Democrats believe in wearing masks and social distancing, and Republicans don't. I'm staying safely at home... Trump is trying every distraction ploy in the books to keep the public from blaming him for the carnage under his watch... five times more deaths due to Covid-19 than the nation with the second most casualties. We have lots to discuss when GottaLaff [http://twitter.com/GottaLaff] joins in for #MyTweetSpot [https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/mytweetspot?source=feed_text&epa=HASHTAG], and Amy Simon of She's History [http://sheshistory.com] completes the Gliberal Goddesses trio

While we're all stuck at home, I feel guilty not doing a Monday show! So, we'll be on today for a Monday Music show! The first part of the show will be business as usual - news, info and possibly a rant, followed by my guest in the second half hour. Michael McDermott is a Chicago-based singer/songwriter who has a new album coming out in early June, so he'll give us the details on its release, official premiere his new video, and perform for us too!

It's the end of yet another week in lockdown-- (week 8 or is it 9?), and the absurdity of Donald Trump as president is manifesting itself with the highest infection rates and the highest death toll from COVID-19 in the world! One man has tried to warn us about Trump's behavior he observed while working for years on Celebrity Apprentice. Today, Noel Casler will share some of his first-hand knowledge with us. As usual, we'll begin with something funny and the latest news...

Every Thursday, Howie Klein of Down with Tyranny and the Blue America PAC joins me to talk politics. Today, we continue our discussion started last week about the 2020 primary season (still going on) and the many great progressive candidates who still need your votes! Democrats had a great victory last week, with Kara Eastman winning her primary in Nebraska, but lost a seat in the special election to replace Katie Hill in CA-25. We'll begin as usual, with something funny, and the latest news which includes Rick Bright testifying before Congress today about the botched pandemic response by the Trump administration.
