Seditious McCarthy Shouldn’t be Speaker
Sep. 30, 2015 12:12 pmBy Thom Hartmann A...The scramble is on for who’s going to replace John Boehner as Speaker of the House, and one man has emerged as the clear frontrunner: California congressman Kevin McCarthy.
McCarthy is currently the House Majority Leader and thus the second ranking Republican in Congress after Boehner - he is very much part of the GOP establishment.

We CAN make the switch to clean energy.
Sep. 28, 2015 4:31 amBy Thom Hartmann A...'It can be done.' That's the take away from a new report that says our world can make the switch to 100% renewable energy by 2050.
That new analysis, called “World Energy Revolution: A Sustainable World Energy Outlook 2015”, was produced by Greenpeace, in collaboration with researchers from the German Aerospace Center.Thursday 24 September '15 show notes

The Pope Says Greed Is Not Good
Sep. 25, 2015 4:30 amBy Thom Hartmann A...In 1987 the film "Wall Street" summed up the general feeling in Reagan's America with Gordon Gecko's legendary speech that hinged on one phrase.
"Greed is Good."
That became the private mantra for vulture capitalists and hedgefund managers through to today - and it made a catchy case for "trickledown" Reaganomics.
But that film didn't invent the idea - it just spelled it out.
