Trump's Plot to Reject Midterm Results & The Hidden Putin Proof - Thom Hartmann
Thom Hartmann breaks down six critical stories exposing the current administration's assault on American democracy.

We also investigate the firing of a Treasury official for upholding the law, the weaponization of the IRS, and a disturbing pattern of violence and lack of accountability within ICE. Stay informed on the news for the public, not the powerful. - Aired on 07/17/2026.
