About this episode
On this episode, we celebrate the victory by Calvin Duncan, who appeared on the show last week to announce his run for Orleans County clerk of the court, following a long incarceration for a crime he did not commit. Next, Joy spoke with Eric Swalwell about the ongoing Epstein files catastrophe Donald Trump and his regime have created for themselves. We also spoke with Nadine Smith who laid our her vision as the new head of Color of Change (http://colorofchange.org/). In hour two, we tackle the healthcare crisis as Republicans refuse to extend the Obamacare premium support subsidies, with Dr. Rob Davidson, the Executive Director of the Committee to Protect Health Care; and we dive back into the Epstein Files with friend of the show Lev Parnas. Lastly, we give young Eloise, the girl who schooled “Megyn R. Kelly” on the vulnerability of children, the last word.
