Gianno Caldwell, Caldwell Strategic Consulting & Max Blumenthal, Alternet/The 51 Day War-Ruin and Resistance in Gaza & Crystal Wright, Con Job/Conservative Black Chick/RT America all join Thom. Between the floods in Texas and the floods in Northern Europe - more than two dozen people have died or gone missing over the last week - including 9 soldiers in Fort Hood - and the corporate media is committing climate malpractice. If the corporate media were responsible - they would talk about how these storm events are driven by the fact that the planet has warmed 1 degree Celsius already over pre-industrial levels - and that means that there is about 5 - 10 percent more moisture in the atmosphere than there was in 1968 when Richard Nixon was sworn in. More moisture in the atmosphere means more energy in the atmosphere which means more energy and moisture for storms to feed on. So what should be the punishment for media conglomerates that refuse to tell the public about the scientific consensus about the connection between climate change and more frequent and more powerful storm events?

Thom discusses the leaked audio proving that right-wing groups in Brazil were planning on taking down the president with The Center for Economic and Policy’s Mark Weisbrot, who the DNC blocked from joining the convention’s platform drafting committee with Solidarity Strategies’ Chuck Rocha, and how 2015 was a record setting year for renewable energy with Oil Change International’s Alex Doukas. In tonight’s Daily Take Thom details how the corporate media is committing malpractice by not reporting on the greatest issue facing the planet – climate change.

Dr. Mark Weisbrot, Center for Economic and Policy Research (C.E.P.R.)/Just Foreign Policy/FAILED: What the "Experts" Got Wrong about the Global Economy, joins Thom. Leaks have revealed that right-wingers were working behind the scenes to remove Rousseff from power as a way to take out the left and distract from their own corruption problems all in one fell swoop.

Sam Sacks, The District Sentinel, joins Thom. Despite what you might hear on Fox So-Called News - there is no such thing as the Ferguson Effect. The idea that protests against police violence in Ferguson, Missouri and around the country have inspired a new wave of attacks against law enforcement is just flat-out false. In fact - 2015 was the safest year on record for American cops - as 41 were killed on the job - a 20 percent drop from the year before. So take that - Bill O'Reilly! But anyways - even though the Ferguson Effect is pure right-wing fantasy - violence against other groups of public servant .
