VOTE FOR THE WORST OF THE TRUMP ADMIN

James and Al castigate our corporate masters and the oligarchs in control of Fox before welcoming historian Joseph Ellis to celebrate the founding and tell some of its finest stories.  They discuss the legacy of our earliest politicians, explain why July 2nd is a better date for a national holiday, and whether our democracy will continue to survive over the course of future generations.  Then they welcome award-winning filmmaker Eva Orner to continue to expose the SA scandal at Ohio State, and examine how we treat university students and men in sports when they need us most.
