Why do people distrust the media? And why do conservatives distrust the media even more? There are many reasons and some of them occurred in just the last week. Jay and Amy touch on issues related to CNN, Jimmy Kimmel and the NY Times laughable math about the lies President Obama told in his two terms. They also offer up some advice for people in the media to regain that trust.

Taxes, baby, taxes! The Republican Party is pushing to get through a tax reform (or tax cut) bill by the end of the year. It would give them and President Trump a major legislative victory in 2017. But is it worth it? The tax bill does away with a lot of deductions and credits that people are upset over. Karol Markowicz of the New York Post joins Amy and Jay to discuss. Karol has written about the plan – and not entirely favorably – so her perspective will be interesting!

New art! The changeover is complete. On this Thanksgiving week show, Amy and Jay talk about the politics of sexual harassment – including that of Roy Moore, Al Franken, John Conyers and yes, Bill Clinton.

Amy lends a particularly incisive viewpoint on the issue especially as it relates to people who attack accusers who “smile” when taking a photo with somebody groping them. Jay and Amy also dig into the real reason there’s been a “reckoning” with Bill Clinton and what is it about “open secrets” that are so maddening.

Everybody tells tales of what healthcare would be like if Obamacare were repealed. But hardly anybody tells the stories about people who suffered because of Obamacare. Mary Katherine Ham of The Federalist and CNN is one and it came during a devastating part of her life. She talks to Jay and Neal about her story and also about what Republicans can, cannot or won’t do going forward with attempting to either repeal or replace Obamacare.
