It's the One Year Anniversary of She Persisted! And it's also Mr. Carter's 4th birthday!! Plus Melissa talks about the difficulty of seeing a parent grow old. And a new movie is out that highlights the accomplishments of four important women. What is it? Melissa will tell you.

I explain how rich white men like Judge Brett Kavanaugh feel entitled, and how it fueled the rage he displayed during his testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee this past Friday.

It was a year ago just five miles from here shots rang out. Oct 1 is a big day here in Las Vegas. Plus, women, all I can say is I'm sorry as Kavanaugh moves towards a vote.

A friend emailed me JOAN WILLIAMS' Harvard Business Review article, What So Many People Don't Get About the U.S. Working Class. Read over 3.7 million times, it's the most read article in HBR's 90-plus year history, and I can see why. WILLIAMS is the author of WHITE WORKING CLASS: Overcoming Class Cluelessness in America. "If we don't take steps to bridge the class culture gap, when Trump proves unable to bring steel back to Youngstown, the consequences could turn dangerous."

Republicans put on a pageant of white male privilege and professional victimization as they tried to stuff another partisan hack on the highest court.

Fact is, Republicans don't care whether Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted Dr. Ford and lied to Americas face under oath - they're busy entrenching oligarchy and dismantling democracy and putting the huddled masses firmly back in our subservient "place."

Are we going to allow them to get away with it?

Comedian Ron Placone from the Young Turks, The Jimmy Dore Show and "Get Your News On With Ron" calls in during the second hour.

It’s Time to Call #TimesUp on Standing Alone

What did we witness on September 27th in the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court? We witnessed a woman, reluctant, and by her own account terrified, trying to be helpful by offering highly credible testimony about her experience of assault.
