Background Briefing 10-20-2018 by Progressive Voices

The Midterms are less than two weeks away and Republicans are pulling out all their dirty tricks to ensure they can keep their stranglehold on power.

Republican voter suppression tactics continue apace. Trump is now complicit in the brutal murder of Khashoggi, helping the Saudis cover it up while he continues to attack the press.

This is how fascism comes to America. How much longer are the decent people of this nation going to stand for it?

We discuss the another week of madness.

On the next State of Belief Radio, the increasingly irresponsible – and potentially dangerous – rhetoric of this political season. We’ll dig into it with Jack Moline, President of Interfaith Alliance.

Also, Scott Shay. His new book is titled, In Good Faith: Questioning Religion and Atheism.

And Neil Comess-Daniels. Decades before Stephen Miller became the powerful author of White House anti-immigrant policy, Comess-Daniels was his Rabbi.

Off-Kilter Podcast #83 10-20-2018 by Progressive Voices

Leslie is re-joined by Congressman Ro Khanna. He represents California's 17th congressional district, including Silicon Valley. His focus is to create proposals for jobs in areas left behind and tax credits for the working class. He believes in exercising restraint in foreign policy, and takes no PAC money!

The two discuss how Saudi Arabia's blocking of aid to Yemen has 13 million people on the brink of starvation, which would be the world's worst famine in the last 100 years if the war continues.

During the second half of the interview, they analyze what it would mean for voter participation, and our democracy, if Election Day were to be made a National holiday.

Congressman Khanna's website is Khanna.House.Gov and his Twitter handle is @RoKhanna.
