The revolts in Turkey, Brazil, Europe, the Middle East and Asia – as well as in the United States – are all connected."A worldwide revolution is under way, they insist, defying usual left-right divisions, uniting people in their determination to take hold of their own future, and take the power back from the tiny minority which has been dictating the world's agenda for many decades. Listen in to this uplifting show!

While You Weren't Watching, the Right Doubles Down on the War on Women Republicans hate the accusation that they are waging a "War on Women." You'd think by now they'd see the damage it causes them and avoid the charge by not doing it and trying to show women the party is really on their side. But no. Instead they are stepping it up, in the apparent belief Americans are not paying attention. It is not a winning issue for them, so columnist Amanda Marcotte talks with Burt about why they are keeping it up. A very interesting and revealing discussion.

OK, it's fairly dense stuff, but it affects the taxes we must pay and the long term sustainability of America's economy. And really, the stability of our very republic. North Dakota, of all places, shows it can be done.
