Will the Government Protect Abortion Clinic Access In the Era of Trump? (Lindsay E. Beyerstein, The Breach)
Rewire Vice President of Law and the Courts Jessica Mason Pieklo joins Lindsay Beyerstein for a special episode on abortion access to mark the launch of Rewire’s first original documentary, Care in Chaos. Anti-choice activists are already testing the government’s commitment to enforcing the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, which makes it a federal crime to blockade an abortion clinic. If the federal government won’t defend the rule of law, we could be looking at a return to the tactics of the “Summer of Mercy,” when thousands of anti-choice protesters physically blocked access to clinics in Wichita, Kansas.
Care in Chaos, directed by Lindsay Beyerstein and Martyna Starosta, follows a 27-year-old abortion clinic administrator as she battles anti-choice aggression and law enforcement indifference that threaten safe access for patients and staff.

Is The Health Care Overhaul Over? (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)
Over a steak dinner last night, President Trump urged key Republican Senators to finally repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. He didn’t know that two more Senators were about to announce they oppose the bill – effectively killing it. So what now? Mitch McConnell wants a “repeal only” bill, but that could lead to chaos. Others say it’s time to work across party lines to fix healthcare. This hour On Point: Republicans fumble and Obamacare remains the law of the land. -- Anthony Brooks

Inside The 'Shakespearian Irony' Of Trump & Bannon's Relationship
In August 2016, three months before the presidential election, Republican nominee Donald Trump was behind in the polls. Instead of staying on message, the candidate was engaged in a politically damaging fight with the parents of an Army captain killed in Iraq.
On Aug. 17, in an effort to change course, the Trump team appointed Steve Bannon, the former executive chairman of the conservative Breitbart News, to lead the campaign. Journalist Joshua Green of Bloomberg Businessweek says the switch would prove to be a turning point.
"[Trump] was headed toward a pretty serious loss, and Bannon brought his wealth of anti-Clinton knowledge into the campaign and managed to keep Trump focused on a target," Green says.
Green argues that Bannon's experiences with Breitbart gave him a framework for mobilizing disaffected young white male voters who were attracted to Trump. Without such guidance, Green says, "I don't think that Donald Trump would have been elected president."
Despite Bannon's success in the campaign, Green says that the adviser's nationalist vision remains largely unfulfilled. "The kind of tragic, Shakespearean irony of the Donald Trump-Steve Bannon relationship is that Bannon finally did find the vessel for his ideas who could get elected president ... [but who] now doesn't have the focus, the wherewithal, the self-control to even do the basic things that a president needs to do."
Green's new book, Devil's Bargain, profiles Bannon and explains his role in Trump's election.

MAGAnomics And The Quest For Three Percent (Joshua Johnson, 1A)
They call it MAGAnomics.
That’s a term coined by budget director Mick Mulvaney to describe a budget plan designed to guarantee three percent economic growth every year. How? Through tax cuts, spending cuts and a combination of other strategies.
That three-percent estimate has been criticized as practically impossible. The Congressional Budget Office predicts the plan will only give the economy a one-tenth of one percent boost, keeping overall growth below two percent. The White House has previously said it doesn’t have much faith in the CBO’s math skills, but whose calculations can we trust? And what would it take to get to three percent growth?

Kentucky Officials Have Ended the $18 Million Tax Rebate Deal With Ark Encounter
This is a big deal. And you can read more of the back story here.
Quick summary: The Creationists behind Ark Encounter initially said they were building a for-profit attraction in order to get a lot of perks, including a tourism-related tax rebate from the state of Kentucky worth more than $18 million over ten years. But after the city of Williamstown said they would add a 50-cent surcharge to all tickets to pay for a safety fee, Ken Ham‘s team sold Ark Encounter to their own non-profit, Crosswater Canyon, because religious ministries are exempt from that kind of tax....

Minimum Wage and Job Loss: One Alarming Seattle Study Is Not the Last Word - The New York Times
Seattle was the first city in the United States to raise the minimum wage substantially, so a University of Washington study released last month showing big job losses has received a lot of attention, and prompted many an I-told-you-so.
The job losses in the study were far greater than in a control group of similar areas in Washington State (where the minimum wage was not raised).
Because the study found that low-wage workers lost income as a result of the increase, it was a much more dire assessment of the effects of a minimum-wage increase than even the more pessimistic studies to date....

In today’s episode, Andrew definitively opines that the Presidential pardon power includes the right to self-pardon.

Sally Yates: Protect the Justice Department From President Trump - NYTimes.com
The spectacle of President Trump’s efforts to humiliate the attorney general into resigning has transfixed the country. But while we are busy staring at the wreckage of Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ relationship with the man he supported for the presidency, there is something more insidious happening.
The president is attempting to dismantle the rule of law, destroy the time-honored independence of the Justice Department, and undermine the career men and women who are devoted to seeking justice day in and day out, regardless of which political party is in power. If we are not careful, when we wake up from the Trump presidency, our justice system may be broken beyond recognition.

Pecos Bill: Rider on the Storm (Myths and Legends podcast)
The story of Pecos Bill is that of a true American Hero...who spends half the story naked and who legitimately thinks he is actually a coyote. But don't tell him that. He's cool and won't hurt you, but you'll get into a long discussion and won't actually convince him or his horse (named Pegasus/Widowmaker/Jeremy) that he's actually a human being. Also, while we're at it, he can lasso water and air because I guess when you ask the audience to suspend disbelief, you go for broke.
The creature this time is the Mongolian Death Worm. It's a sand worm, but don't go getting your maker hooks just yet, because it's no Shai Hulud. And that's a problem, because instead of the spice melange that will give you longevity and maybe prescience, it spits a virulent neurotoxin that will do precisely the exact opposite.

Baptist Joshua Thinks The Bible Treats Homosexuals Better Than The 'Myth' Of Evolution
Responding to a video by Baptist Joshua who tries to compare the views of the bible against those of evolution to see which has a more favorable view of homosexuality.
From his description box: "How do the stances of Scripture and Evolution view the homosexual/lesbian? The Bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin, but all sins are forgivable. "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8
According to the myth of evolution, the homosexual is not as evolved, will die out, and is a waste. God loved the homosexual so much, He died for them!"
No Joshua. Homosexuality isn't a sin, and we find that many species have homosexual tendencies. It's completely natural. Time to put your myths away, and join us in reality.

A Federal Appeals Court Just Shot Down Government Prayer on Steroids in North Carolina - The New Civil Rights Movement
In Rowan County, North Carolina, the county board of commissioners was intent on taking government prayer to a whole new level. Every board meeting opened with a prayer. But it wasn’t just government prayer. It was government prayer on steroids.
The prayers were delivered by commissioners themselves. No one else was allowed to give the prayer. Over the years, the prayers referred to only one faith — Christianity — and were proselytizing. Multiple prayers, for example, described Christianity as “the one and only way to salvation.”...

My Take On Stefan Molyneux and Steven Crowder's Talk About The Politics Of Atheism
From the description of the original video: "Is there a connection between atheism/religious disbelief and the desire for an increasingly powerful, ever-expanding government that tramples individual freedoms? Steven Crowder joins Stefan Molyneux to discuss trends among atheists, the non-believers draw toward false government solutions, incredibly important values instilled via Christianity, objective ethics, the "my body, my choice" abortion mantra, economy crushing climate change proposals and the rise of the regressive left."
My thoughts on a small portion of the overall interview, where Stefan tries to blame atheists for ripping away the fabric of society without having something to replace it with.
In this portion at least, Crowder seems like the more reasonable person and points out that if atheists are right, they're not responsible for replacing the lie.

Week In The News: Health Care Revival, White House Chaos, Russia Investigation (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)
A GOP healthcare collapse this week. Wild profanity from the White House. And the Boy Scouts of America apologize for remarks of the president of the United States. Holy cow! John McCain cast the vote that brought down a "skinny repeal." Anthony Scaramucci went off on Reince Priebus. The president went off on Jeff Sessions, and tweeted a ban on transgender military service. Congress sanctions Russia some more.

Inside The 'Shakespearean Irony' Of Trump And Bannon's Relationship (Terry Gross, Fresh Air)
In August 2016, three months before the presidential election, Republican nominee Donald Trump was behind in the polls. Instead of staying on message, the candidate was engaged in a politically damaging fight with the parents of an Army captain killed in Iraq.
On Aug. 17, in an effort to change course, the Trump team appointed Steve Bannon, the former executive chairman of the conservative Breitbart News, to lead the campaign. Journalist Joshua Green of Bloomberg Businessweek says the switch would prove to be a turning point.
"[Trump] was headed toward a pretty serious loss, and Bannon brought his wealth of anti-Clinton knowledge into the campaign and managed to keep Trump focused on a target," Green says.
Green argues that Bannon's experiences with Breitbart gave him a framework for mobilizing disaffected young white male voters who were attracted to Trump. Without such guidance, Green says, "I don't think that Donald Trump would have been elected president."
Despite Bannon's success in the campaign, Green says that the adviser's nationalist vision remains largely unfulfilled. "The kind of tragic, Shakespearean irony of the Donald Trump-Steve Bannon relationship is that Bannon finally did find the vessel for his ideas who could get elected president ... [but who] now doesn't have the focus, the wherewithal, the self-control to even do the basic things that a president needs to do."
Green's new book, Devil's Bargain, profiles Bannon and explains his role in Trump's election.
