Capitalism left to it's own devices is going to dismantle democracy and sell the pieces to the highest bidder, thats why we need a strong democracy to act as regulator of capitalism.

Thom is joined my University of Maryland Professor Dana Fisher to discuss the data from the women's march, who is this "resistance" we are hearing about?

There is something rotten in the capital. Republican chicanery has again left with a win for regressive conservatives and the morbidly rich. And one has to wonder, are the Republicans playing chess with the fate of the nation, the fate of 3.6 million people!

Former President Vicente Fox joins the Thom Hartmann Program to discuss the white supremacist in chief, Donald Trump and his actions against the people of the world , the people of Mexico, and the people in America.

We're not calling Donald Trump a Plutocrat, but if it walks like a plutocrat, talks like a plutocrat and quacks like a plutocrat... We might not be living in a democracy anymore. Robert Weissman the President of Public Citizen joins us to discuss this and more!

Thom looks at a report from the Southern Poverty Law Center about white supremacist terrorism and hate crimes on the rise, why isn't the media taking this seriously? why isn't the government... oh wait is it because republicans don't want to upset their base by going after the criminals among them?

Tom Perez the Chairman for the DNC and former United States Secretary Of labor joins the program today to discuss the government shutdown. DACA and the Republicans failure to do their job.

The Republicans are trying to blame the latest government shutdown on the Democrats, on DACA, and on everything except themselves and their president, Donald Trump!

What is going to happen when the government shuts down, why are Republicans so unwilling to do their jobs? Are there a group of superpacs

Thom goes over why most Americans didn't get a tax break and how the Morbidly Rich used lobbying to get a break for themselves! What kind of world do we live in where the rich get a tax break but the poor don't?

Karl Frisch from Allied Progress joins the program to discuss the Dodd Frank Consumer Protections are being Dismantled by Donald Trump. In the latest in the battle between Union Labor and the Trump Pence Regime.

Thom takes your calls on military spending, and on whether police belong in the labor movement, and are these issues that conservatives and liberals can agree on?

Lori Wallach joins the program today to discuss NAFTA and how broken clocks... might be right twice a day. Could Democrats work with Racist Donald Trump?
