Bryan Pruitt, RedState & Alex Lawson, Social Security Works. As Donald Trump escalates his war with CNN - reports suggest that his administration could go as far as blackmailing the network if it doesn't change its ways.

Mr. Trump’s Justice Department will decide whether to approve the merger, and while analysts say there is little to stop the deal from moving forward, the president’s animus toward CNN remains a wild card."

The New Voter Suppression Has Begun

Greg Palast, The Best Democracy Money Can Buy. Forty-five states have now said that they won't give sensitive voter data to Donald Trump's "Election Integrity Commission."

But according to my next guest - the bipartisan "resistance" we're seeing in the states to the Commission's data request isn't what it seems.
