The No BS Guide To The Upcoming Jill Stein Recount
Dec. 5, 2016 2:57 pmBy Thom Hartmann A...It's almost like they have something to hide.
With one Jill Stein-led recount effort already underway in Wisconsin and additional recounts pending in Michigan and Pennsylvania, supporters of Donald Trump are now taking legal action to stop what they say is a baseless attempt to smear their candidate.

In Wisconsin, Trump Super PACS are doing the dirty work and have asked a federal judge to stop what they say is a violation of due process rights.Did Carrier Fleece Both Trump & America?

Trump Wants Dissent To Be A Crime...
Nov. 30, 2016 2:25 pmBy Thom Hartmann A...Another day - another bizarre -- and frankly constitution-defying-- tweet from Donald Trump.
