How many more lives sacrificed for profits for the military-industrial complex?
Thom talks with Phyllis Bennis, author of the book ‘Ending the US War in Afghanistan: A Primer,’ about President Trump’s “strategy” for Afghanistan and what could be next for the nation’s longest running war. Then, in the Big Picture Rumble, Thom is joined by Nick Givas of the Daily Caller and Alex Lawson from Social Security Works. They debate the Trump Administration’s war on the great outdoors and a reported new plan to shrink the size of four National Monuments. Then, a new poll puts Bernie Sanders ahead of President Trump in a hypothetical match up. Finally, the Alt-Right cancels a rally after protesters pledge to leave them a stinky surprise.
