Today on The Michelangelo Signorile Show on SiriusXM PROGRESS ch.127
On Friday night, at a
rally in Altoona, Pa. Donald Trump told the audience that the only way Hillary
Clinton could win the state was if "in certain sections of the state they
cheat." He then went on to encourage his supporters to “not just vote on
the 8th,” but to also “go around and look and watch other polling places and
make sure that it's 100 percent fine,” which amounts to what some observers such
as Ari Berman of The Nation say are calls for voter intimidation and suppression. Ari joins
me on the show today to talk all about Trump’s claims of widespread voter fraud
and the Republican Party’s history of trying to deny the right to vote to America’s
minority communities.
Earlier this month, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
released the results of the first nationally representative study on the health
risks faced by American lesbian, gay, and bisexual high school students; and
according to the report when it comes to depression, bullying and many types of
violence these students are at a far greater risk then their straight peers. Joining me today to talk all about the study,
the multiple risk factors that place youth at risk for violence, and what can
be done to protect them from violence is Dr. Debra Houry the Director of
the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control at Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention.
