Thom Hartmann: Has PM Liz Truss Wrecked the UK Economy? Featuring Richard Wolff

Is British prime minister Liz Truss trashing the economy of her country? A tax cut for the rich and little for the poor. The pound sterling has crashed against the dollar and the euro.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has publicly rebuked the UK government, which is almost unheard of.

Is the country spinning out of control financially?

Thom Hartmann : Florida Atheist Moves to Ban the Bible

Apr 25, 2022 • A Florida Atheist, Chaz Stevens has Petitioned to Ban the Bible in the Miami-Dade and Broward Schools. As of July of 2021, more than 200 books have been banned in school districts all over Florida. It's one of the states with a high number of school book banning incidents in America. Stevens cites age inappropriateness, social-emotional learning, mentions of bestiality and rape, and "wokeness" as reasons to ban the Bible. Each reason is accompanied by a corresponding Bible excerpt. Stevens warns. "If they ignore me, doesn't that tell you something? The government can't pick and choose religion, but can they choose which books they review for banning and which ones they don't?"

Thom Hartmann: Is Trump Really Going to Jail? (w/ David Cay Johnston)

Feb 22, 2022 • Will Donald Trump go to jail? He is over 70 and most people over that age without ‘previous’ don’t go to jail.

Does this mean if Trump is indicted, most likely in Georgia, there is the potential that he loses everything he has, except his presidential pension. The rest goes. Could the whole Trump organization be dissolved?

How likely is this scenario?

David Cay Johnston joined Thom to discuss the possibilities.
