True crime

One of the biggest experts on Donald Trump is David Cay Johnston. He is the author of many books on the former president, outlining both Trumps' history and his malfeasance in office. His no holds barred and anti-b.s. detector means he is invited on shows on cable and national news as well as interviews in podcasts such as The Opperman Report.Here he talks about the current travails of the former president, and how they reflect not only on the two tier justice system which affords Trump certain privileges no one else would get, but also how it reflects on a country where almost 30% of the electorate would want a grifter and would be dictator as their leader.David Cay Johnston is an American investigative journalist and author, a specialist in economics and tax issues, and winner of the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for Beat Reporting.From July 2011 until September 2012 he was a columnist for Reuters, writing, and producing video commentaries, on worldwide issues of tax, accounting, economics, public finance and business. Johnston is the board president of Investigative Reporters and Editors. He has also written for Al Jazeera Englishand Americain recent years. Johnston is a Distinguished Visiting Lecturer at College of Lawand the Whitman School of Managementat Syracuse University.Johnston is the author of best-selling books on tax and economic policy. Free Lunch: How the Wealthiest Americans Enrich Themselves at Government Expense and Stick You With The Bill, is about hidden subsidies, rigged markets, and corporate socialism. It follows his earlier book Perfectly Legal: The Covert Campaign to Rig Our Tax System to Benefit the Super Rich—and Cheat Everybody Else, a New York Times bestseller on the U.S. tax system that won the Investigative Reporters and Editors 2003 Book of the Year award.Johnston's first book, the 1992 Temples of Chance: How America Inc. Bought Out Murder Inc. to Win Control of the Casino Business is an account of how the junk-bond kings usurped mob control of the casino industry in the 1980s. The book discusses corruption in the industry and the role of the federal and state governments in that corruption.In 2014 Johnston released Divided: The Perils of Our Growing Inequality. Cay Johnston shows most Americans, in inflation-adjusted terms, are now back to the average income of 1966. Post-recession (from 2009 to 2011) the top one percent of households took in 121 percent of the income gains while the bottom 99 percent saw their incomes fall.In 2016, Johnston released The Making of Donald Trump, a journalistic account of the rise of businessperson-turned-presidential candidate Donald Trump. At the time he wrote the book, Johnston had known Trump for 28 years. The book was on the New York Times bestseller list.Published in 2018 is It's Even Worse Than You Think: What the Trump Administration is Doing to America, an investigative piece that details actions taken by Trump and his appointees at the departmental level, and how these actions affect Americans' rights and civil protections.

Solo Show - David Cay Johnston The Making of Donald Trump

David Cay Johnston - The Making of Donald TrumpFebruary 4We had David in the studio recently talking about his new work detailing the capers of former President Trump, in this archive show from 2018, David provides the background to the entire Trump brand, and it's not pretty.The Making of Donald Trump gives a short tour of the business career of America’s 45th president. The narrative is episodic and inconsecutive, but it begins at the beginning, with the example set by Fred Trump, the father of Donald: a mid-century real-estate buccaneer, adroit at political manipulation and statute dodging. The book goes on to recount a few of the scandalous details of the construction of Trump Tower and the purchase, mismanagement and financial collapse of Donald’s casino properties in Atlantic City.Various chapters take in the mob connections that Trump aimed to profit from while keeping at two removes (sometimes with the help of an apartment gratis); there are also free-standing anecdotes about friends and associates, and a chapter on Trump’s bid for the gambling custom of the high-rolling Japanese real-estate investor Akio Kashiwagi. The book bears the marks of having been put together under pressure to stop the election disaster. Pared down to half its length and distributed to every voter in the contested states, it might have helped to produce a different result.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

And this is as true of vice and corruption as it is of any other form of entertainment, both legal and illicit.Doug Poppa has a wealth of stories under his name, stories where the 'good guys' are the villains, the bad guys are not as bad and no one is quite sure who controls who. A murky world of corruption, sex and drugs.From the cop on the street to senior Judiciary, you don't know who is who until you are in deepDoug Poppa is your guide on this tour de force of dirty laundry some would rather remain uncovered.Podcast : Doug Poppa Youtube : Doug Poppa Facebook : Doug Poppa Twitter : Doug PoppaBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
