Can the Presidency Regain Its Integrity After Trump?
By Thom Hartmann A...
Even those of us old enough to remember have probably forgotten that in the spring of 1979 the Attorney General of the United States appointed a special prosecutor to look into his own president's ownership of his peanut warehouse, to make sure that he wasn't, in any way, making money from his presidency. The special counsel was republican Paul Curran, and the Attorney General was Griffin Bell. The president, of course, was Jimmy Carter. Now we have a president who is trying to force world leaders into his own failing Florida hotel during its lowest season to jack up its revenues, the Attorney General is spending $30,000 on a Christmas party at the president's hotel in Washington DC, while the Air Force is pouring money into his failing Scotland property. And it all seems to be just fine with the same Republican Party that was hysterical that Jimmy Carter may have accidentally seen a balance sheet from the blind trust holding his peanut farm. How far we have fallen?-Thom

From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
From Cracking the Code:
"No one communicates more thoughtfully or effectively on the radio airwaves than Thom Hartmann. He gets inside the arguments and helps people to think them through—to understand how to respond when they’re talking about public issues with coworkers, neighbors, and friends. This book explores some of the key perspectives behind his approach, teaching us not just how to find the facts, but to talk about what they mean in a way that people will hear."
