The PBS Newshour was excellent tonight


A link to the program is below. You can listen to the entire program, or listen to individual segments OR read the transcripts of each of the topics discussed.

The discussion with Rep. Schiff about the investigation into Trumps yet unsubstantiated claims that Obama ordered Trump Tower to be wiretapped is worth hearing. Schiff said he is more concerned about Trump's unproven allegations causing him to lose all credibility.

Some excerpts:
"Obviously, if Iran isn’t cheating, that’s a big problem. If he’s making this up, the way he’s making up the claim that Barack Obama wiretapped him, that’s a big problem. If the president is telling the truth, in a way, it’s a bigger problem, because, will he be believed?"

"Will he be believed by the American people? Will he be believed by our allies that he needs to rally to reimpose sanctions or take some other action against Iran? Each time the president undermines his own credibility, he weakens himself, he weakens the institution of the presidency, he weakens the credibility of the entire country and our standing in the rest of the world."

  Well, that's just a ridiculous, partisan response. -- hoolstoptheheels 03/21/2017 12:25PM
