Mark Levine's Inside Scoop » Podcast Feed

I’m joined by Tim Heaphy is a white-collar criminal defense attorney, law professor and a former United States Attorney for the Western District of Virginia.

We discuss President Obama’s comments regarding FBI Director Jim Comey’s vague letter to Congress about emails.

President Obama said in an interview with NowThis News “We don’t operate on incomplete information. We don’t operate on leaks. We operate based on concrete decisions that are made.”

I’m joined by callers as I explain why FBI Director Jim Comey should be fired for the letter he sent Congress on Friday about the FBI’s email investigation.

I’m joined by callers as we discuss what issues are most important to us during this election cycle. Topics discussed include campaign finance reform, income inequality, and manufacturing.

I’m joined by callers as I discuss the ‘election exhaustion’ that is setting in, why it’s important to fight it, and the importance of working hard enough for the Democrats to win control of Congress.

I’m joined by callers as we discuss the third presidential debate between Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican nominee Donald Trump, including his unprecedented refusal to say he’d accept the results of the election.

I discuss how at least 1 in 5 women will be sexually assaulted in their lifetime, why this is happening, and what can be done about it.

Mark discusses the sexual assault allegations against Donald Trump, and the double standard in the way that he and Hillary Clinton are each judged as presidential candidates.

In this hour Mark talks about how Donald Trump made his authoritarian rise to the top and became the GOP nominee in the 2016 race. After a video surfaced last week where Trump talked about sexually assaulting women, the party he’s representing is running away from their candidate.

“He said, in a widely watched televised presidential debate, that if he became president, he would put political opponents in cages. That’s dictator talk. But it’s not Mr. Trump’s open contempt for the norms of liberal democracy that made my blood run cold. It was the applause that came after.”

And all I could think of was this:

I’m joined by callers as I break down the Vice Presidential debate between Democratic Senator Tim Kaine (VA) and Republican Governor Mike Pence (IN).

I also do some fact-checking on Governor Pence’s false claims regarding his and Donald Trump’s previous Pro-Putin rhetoric, which he tried to run from during the debate.
