Alabama Republican
Senate candidate Roy Moore co-authored a study course published in 2011 that
puts forth conservative Evangelical thinking on the role of women in society
and particularly in politics. Citing the “heresy of feminism,” speakers in the
course criticize the women’s Suffrage Movement and say women should not serve
in public office. Senior Religion Reporter at ThinkProgress Jack Jenkins and
his colleagues examined the course materials in depth. He joins me on the show
today to dig into its significance.
On Friday, former
National Security Advisor Mike Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI about
conversations with Russia's ambassador. This weekend, Trump started tweeting up
a storm about the FBI being in tatters and about knowing Flynn lied. Meanwhile,
the Mueller investigation continues and appears to get closer to Trump. Ian
Millhiser of Think Progress has been following the issue closely. He joins me
on the show today to talk about the legal ramifications of Flynn’s plea and
much more.
Since we last spoke
with John Nichols of The Nation a lot has happened and John returns to the show today to talk all
about these issues and whole lot more, John is The Nation’s national-affairs correspondent, a contributing writer
for The Progressive and In These Times and the associate editor
of The Capital Times, the daily
newspaper in Madison, Wisconsin.
