Today on The Michelangelo Signorile Show on SiriusXM PROGRESS ch.127
On Monday, it was
reported that investigators had obtained a warrant to wiretap former Trump
campaign chairman Paul Manafort. The revelation
marks a potentially significant development in the ongoing probe into potential
collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian operatives and suggests that
Special Counsel Robert Muller is laying the groundwork for possible
indictments. Joining me today to talk
all about the significance of this wiretap and the reports that some of the
information gleaned from the surveillance prompted concerns that Manafort had
encouraged Russians to help Trump with his campaign is Natasha Bertrand who is a political correspondent at Business Insider where she writes mainly
about national security and foreign policy.
In the face of
dangerous, divisive rhetoric and policies coming from the President and his
administration targeting the LGBTQ community, New York City has taken steps to
resist these attacks and stand up for Queer people. Yesterday, New York City’s First Lady Chirlane McCray launched the NYC Unity Project, which is the City’s first-ever, multi-agency strategy to deliver
unique services to LGBTQ youth. This
project unites 16 city agencies to offer new and enhanced programs and
supports, including training and certification for more than 500 physicians,
as well as a public awareness campaign centered on LGBTQ youth and their
families. It also includes funding for seven new Community Coalitions aimed at
reducing alcohol and substance misuse, and furthermore these programs will not
just benefit LGBTQ youth, but will be available to all youth and First Lady
Chirlane McCray joins me today on the show to talk all about the NYC Unity
Project.
