Hosted by Ian Masters.

In this broadcast, Joe McLean, a veteran political strategist, discusses his article at The Guardian “What is the Republican Playbook for the Mueller investigation?" In the wake of the FCC vote last week to overturn net neutrality, Matt Stoller, who was recently fired from the New America Foundation’s Open Technology Institute for his criticism of tech monopolies, will discuss how the “cableization” of the open internet will help monopolies consolidate their power, and whether such unpopular legislation could backfire on Republicans at the polls and provide Democrats with a counter-message around anti-trust and closing the income gap. And Anthea Butler, a professor and chair of the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Pennsylvania discusses the role of African/American women in the victory against Roy Moore in Alabama. A radio program featuring international and national news, expert guests, policy makers and critics with analysis and insight on national security, foreign and domestic policy, political, cultural and social issues. A production of The Full Disclosure Media Foundation (fdmedia.org).
