Background Briefing 11-03-2017 by Progressive Voices

Today's show is guest hosted by veteran progressive journalists, strategists and activists Cliff Schecter ("The Real McCain") and John Aravosis (The Economist, AMERICAblog News & LGBT).

During today's show, and twice per week via their "Unpresidented Podcast," they give you an unfiltered and humorous insider's look at the latest political news, and the action steps you need to get involved and RESIST.

Some of the topics they touch on today are the newly released Republican tax plan, Donald Trump Jr.'s pathetic attempt to use his child for a political joke on Twitter, the Mercer family divesting from Milo and Breitbart (sort of), Jeff Sessions suddenly remembering having discussions about Russia during the Trump campaign, and more.

You can find the 'Unpresidented' Podcast at www.UnPresidentedPodcast.com and the premium version at www.Patreon.com/UnPresidentedPodcast. The Twitter handle for the podcast is @UnPresidentPod. Cliff's handle is @CliffSchecter and John's is @Aravosis.
