"A Lot of Good Can Come Down From Shutdowns. We Can Get Rid of Things that We Didn't Want and They'd Be DEMOCRAT Things."

John talks about day 2 of the government shutdown which saw zero talks of negotiation or compromise on a budget, but instead a unified rattling of swords as Republicans continued to threaten major and permanent federal layoffs. Then, he speaks with the National Affairs correspondent for The Nation - John Nichols, about his new article "Robert Redford Sounded the Alarm About Our Corrupted Politics Over 50 Years Ago". And finishing it up John welcomes back the 2 Taras - Tara Devlin is a comedian and the host of the Tarabuster, where she looks at the news, politics and history through an unapologetically liberal lens. Tara Dublin is a comedian and author of “The Sound of Settling: A Rock & Roll Love Story.” Together Tara Devlin and Tara Dublin are the co-hosts of THE Tara Show podcast. They chat with listeners and give advice on how to navigate life in Trumpland.
