Trump campaigned on defeating the toxic neoconservative foreign policy that’s pushed the US into war, but now he’s looking to appoint a notorious neocon to his cabinet.

President Trump is bringing neocons into his administration and looks set to inherit a national security apparatus that could enable him to commit atrocities--as promised overtly on the campaign trail. President Obama wants to hand Trump the drone program without tightening the rules. And last week, Obama was saying Trump was too dangerous to be Commander-in-Chief!

Plus, Americans don’t like to think of their own country as a place that jails political prisoners. But I’ve got some bad news. We are. Former Congressman Parker Griffith joins us later to discuss the case of jailed former Alabama Congressman Don Siegelman.

Then, Paul Ryan pivoted from being totally humiliated by a demagogue to brown-nosing one faster than you can say “no one cares anymore about your plan to privatize Medicare, Paul.” We’ll explain the latest way Paul Ryan has disgraced himself, at the very end of the show.

We'd love to get your feedback at radio@sputniknews.com
