Mark Levine's Inside Scoop » Podcast Feed

During today’s episode I analyze Democratic Senator-Elect Doug Jones’ victory over Republican Roy Moore in Alabama.

I also discuss why the win in Alabama should be fueling Americans to oppose the FCC’s scheduled vote to kill Net Neutrality on December 14th, as well as the Tax Scam Bill being rushed through the GOP House and Senate.

I preview tomorrow’s Senate Election in Alabama between Democrat Doug Jones and Republican (and credibly accused child molester) Roy Moore.

I also play audio from a focus group of Alabama voters who still say they will vote for Moore despite the multiple, credible, accusations of child molestation against him. (courtesy of HBO’s Vice News, video available below

Mark is joined first with Adam Federman, Reporting Fellow at ‘The Investigative Fund,’ to discuss his cover story for ‘The Nation Magazine’ entitled “The Plot to Loot America’s Wilderness.”

In this episode’s second half, Mark is joined by Tim Karr of Free Press to discuss the upcoming December 14th FCC vote that would kill net neutrality, what that would mean for the internet, and what we can do to stop it.’

Today I was joined by our final caller from part one of this mini-series, Debra, so that she could finish her personal story after she was cut off due to the show ending. This time Debra was able to share her painful story of being raped by her Father as a child and then having her family subsequently blacklist her from all family celebrations like birthdays, Christmas celebrations, etc, because of what happened to her.

This discussion comes in the wake of the many recent stories on sexual misconduct in Politics, Hollywood, and the Media.

I explain, in understandable economic terms, why the Senate Republican tax bill will wreck the economy and destroy the American dream.

(Please call your Senator and tell them to vote ‘NO’ on this horrible tax bill! The Senate switchboard phone number is 202-224-3121)

I’m joined by callers as we discuss the important (but sometimes misunderstood) differences between sexual assault, sexual harassment, and poorly reading someone romantically.

The discussion comes in the wake of the many recent stories on sexual misconduct in Politics, Hollywood, and the Media.

(This is part one of a two part series. Part 2 will air on Monday, December 4th from 3:06pm-3:58pm ET live on Progressive Voices. We have also asked our final caller of the hour, Debra, to call back in to the show so she can finish her personal story after she was cut off due to the show ending)

I’m joined by callers as we discuss how Senate Republicans are trying to pass a bill that would raise taxes on anyone who earns $75,000 or less annually. Yet, this same bill would give a massive tax break to the wealthiest 1% of the country. This would include a $20 Billion dollar tax cut for EACH of the Koch Brothers alone!

This all comes as the non-partisan CBO (Congressional Budget Office) published a new report on Sunday showing that the proposed legislation would hurt the poorest segment of America’s population more than originally thought.

I also detail the Trump administration’s new attempt to hijack the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Urging listeners to push through any possible ‘outrage fatigue,’ I explain why as I discuss four important topics during today’s show.

1. The disastrous Republican tax bill and how CEOs are admitting that they won’t reinvest any tax breaks they receive back into their companies (which negates one of the biggest talking points of those who support the plan)

2. How some Republicans would rather support an alleged child molester (Roy Moore) for Senate rather than a Democrat (Doug Jones)

3. “Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, is under investigation for involvement in an alleged plot to kidnap a Turkish dissident cleric living in the US and fly him to an island prison in Turkey in return for $15 million dollars” (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/nov/10/michael-flynn-trump-turkish-dissident-cleric-plot)

4. Donald Trump Jr. has admitted to being in regular communication with Wikileaks during the 2016 presidential campaign, further linking him to Russian election interference

I’m joined by callers as I discuss what an outrageous scam the GOP tax plan is that’s being pushed by President Trump. If you think you know how bad the numbers are, trust me, you don’t. Wait until I break them down for you.

I also discuss the latest on the Roy Moore situation, including the news that a fifth woman has accused the GOP Senate candidate of sexual misconduct.
