Shortly after Donald
Trump was elected president, Amy Siskind, who had campaigned for Hillary
Clinton, began keeping what she calls the Weekly List, tracking all the ways in
which she saw America’s taken-for-granted governmental norms changing in the
Trump era. The project started small,
read by friends and with only a few items a week, but has since gone
viral! Amy Siskind is the co-founder and President of The New Agenda, a
national organization working on issues including economic independence and
advancement, gender representation and bias, sexual assault and domestic
violence, and she joins me on the show today to talk all about her Weekly List
and the important work that The New Agenda is doing.
This sure has been another crazy week in
politics what with Senate Republicans delaying the vote on Trumpcare to the
President escalating his attacks on the media.
Joining me today to help us wrap up the week in politics is Eleanor Clift the Washington
correspondent for The Daily Beast,
where she covers the White House and writes about politics and culture.
