The Morning Blaze Topics:
Hour 1
Holding Facebook Accountable. Is Congress REALLY concerned, or does their out of touch performance yesterday at the Zuckerberg hearings prove otherwise? Does the government really care about spying on Americans, or do they just hate competition? Rep Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn), author of the Browser Act, joins the show to talk about privacy, Facebook, and transparency in government. How can you trust Congressman on privacy when they have rubber stamped the FISA court? Doc explains how Facebook can track you, even if you never signed up for an account.
Hour2
Author of the book John Wilkes Booth and The Women Who Loved Him, E. Lawrence Abel, joins the show to talk about the man behind the gun that assassinated Abraham Lincoln. Kruz saw Ready Player One and gives us his review of the movie. Doc breaks some troubling news in the form of tweets from President Trump. Chef Patrick checks in and talks food tariffs China has placed on exports from America and notes the top items on the list are all from California. Also, how do you feel about Chocolate Hummus?
Hour 3
Chef Patrick sticks around to talk about how to have passionate debate without running each other down. Listening to each other seems to be a great place to start. Doc reads a letter from a teacher troubled by an education system that places happy parents above educating kids. We read more tweets from listeners poking fun at Mark Zuckerberg testifying in front of Congress. We read a story about a teacher using Facebook to message a student for sex. We wrap up the show with #WhatILearnedToday, and thankfully Mike Huckabee now knows you can get Facebook on the interwebs, and if Leo Dicaprio had been alive then, he might have killed Lincoln.
To see more from Doc, visit his channel on TheBlaze and listen live to “The Morning Blaze with Doc Thompson” weekdays 6–9am ET, only on TheBlaze Radio Network.
