Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA, 13th District)/Barbara Lee for Congress. It's official Hillary Clinton is the first female nominee of a major party in American history. What does this mean for the future of progressive politics?

Thom discusses the most progressive DNC platform in history with Rep. Barbara Lee, whether Rep. Steve King can be beat by his opponent Kim Weaver with Kim Weaver, and how a President Trump would be devastating for combating climate change with Sierra Club’s Michael Brune. Tonight’s Rumble talks Trump’s call for Russia to hack Hillary Clinton, Trump’s call of raising the minimum wage to a measly $10, and Bill O’Reilly’s bizarre comments about slavery.

Max Blumenthal, Grayzone Project-Alternet/The 51 Day War joins Thom. When Black Lives Matter protests first made their appearance on the national scene - the line from conservatives was "No, black lives don't matter - ALL lives matter." Right-wingers have kept up this kind of thinking for most of the past year - but lately they've come out with a new slogan to demonize anti-police violence protesters. You might have heard Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke say it at the Republican National Convention. Here's the thing - though - Blue Lives Matter is more than just a slogan. It’s a hate movement.

Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) joins Thom. Senator Ron Wyden talks about his TOP issues from the DNC convention. Wisconsin has been ground zero of the Koch brothers' war on democracy. But could it be the scene of a progressive spring this November?

Hughey Newsome, BOLD.global/Move-On-Up & Anya Parampil, RT America & Bryan Pruitt, RedState joins Thom. If the Clinton campaign wants to win over the Bernie Sander supporters it hasn’t won over already - that’s the argument it’s going to have to make in some form or another between now and November. But there’s one tiny problem. For someone who’s supposedly such a progressive - Hillary Clinton is starting to win over a lot of Republicans. And these aren’t just any Republicans - I’m talking the most Republican of Republicans - the neocons. So what are progressives supposed to make of these very high profile Republican supporters of Hillary Clinton? Do they tell us more about Clinton or her opponent - Donald Trump? And will they affect how she runs her campaign over the next 3 months?

Hughey Newsome, BOLD.global/Move-On-Up & Anya Parampil, RT America & Bryan Pruitt, RedState joins Thom. Bernie has and probably will remain the only candidate this election cycle to talk about climate change like it is - an existenial threat. This should be a mainstream position. Doesn't it say something completely daming about our political system that it isn't?

Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) joins Thom from the DNC convention. Wisconsin has been ground zero of the Koch brothers' war on democracy. But could it be the scene of a progressive spring this November?

Thom discusses the GOP neocons supporting Hillary Clinton with The Daily Beast’s Eleanor Clift, gun control and privacy issues with Senator Ron Wyden, and LGBT rights with Senator Tammy Baldwin. Tonight’s Politics Panel discusses the chaotic DNC Convention and Bernie’s speech, and Thom answers your questions and comments in tonight’s Your Take, My Take Live.

Jasmine Jefferson, Social Security Works & Danielle Blevins, Freelance Reporter joins Thom. Special Panel Guest: Why Tim Kaine? w/Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Attorney/Former Lt. Gov. of Maryland.

Jasmine Jefferson, Social Security Works & Danielle Blevins, Freelance Reporter joins Thom. It's official - Debbie Wasserman Schultz is out as DNC chair after leaked emails proved that she and other top party officials were working against the Bernie Sanders campaign all along. Is Debbie's ouster the beginning of real change in the Democratic Party or will the old guard insiders remain in control?

Jasmine Jefferson, Social Security Works & Danielle Blevins, Freelance Reporter joins Thom. The 2016 presidential election is a battle between insiders and outsiders - and Donald Trump is trying hard to portray himself as an outsider. Can Hillary Clinton flip the script or is it too late for that?

Thom discusses the similarities between the 1968 presidential election and the 2016 race with former Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak, what Hillary’s picking of Tim Kaine means with former Maryland Lieutenant Governor Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, and the Koch Brothers role in last week’s Republican Convention with the Center for Media and Democracy’s Lisa Graves. Tonight’s Progressive Roundtable discusses the resigning and booing of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, how the DNC voted to keep superdelegates, and why Michael Bloomberg is speaking at the DNC Convention.

Lisa Graves, Center for Media and Democracy joins Thom. In the primaries - Donald Trump ran as a "really really rich" candidate who wasn't beholden to America's billionaire class. So why did he choose a running mate who's career has been bankrolled by the Koch Brothers?

Dr. Mark Weisbrot, Center for Economic and Policy Research (C.E.P.R.)/Just Foreign Policy/FAILED: What the "Experts" Got Wrong about the Global Economy, joins Thom. While Trump has run a campaign based on the promise that he'll put Americans back to work by ending or renegotiating all of our disastrous trade deals - Mike Pence has made a career in Washington supporting every single one of those trade deals! Seriously - he's shown so much support for our so-called free trade deals that the Chamber of Commerce recently wrote a piece called "Mike Pence Has a Great Track Record on Trade" celebrating his support of every single trade deal that Donald Trump opposes. Back in 2001 he pushed to give "trade promotion authority" - also known as fast track authority - to George W. Bush. So - will this ticket divided be able to stand?

Frank Schaeffer, Crazy for God: How I Grew Up as One of the Elect, Helped Found the Religious Right, and Lived to Take All (or Almost All) of It Back joins Thom. Mike Pence spent a good portion of his speech last night warning about the dangers of Islamic extremism. But is he the real dangerous extremist?
