Among those who appear to have benefitted from the Supreme Court’s Citizen United ruling, which eased campaign spending rules and allowed anonymous donor money to go to nonprofit groups run by political activists, Ginni Thomas and her buddy Leonard Leo.
Politico reports Ginni Thomas and Leonard Leo wanted to be the leaders of a conservative movement that funded a billion-dollar network of tax-exempt charities and social welfare organizations to allegedly benefit their friends and themselves.
Former Trump, Chief of Staff Mark Meadows has been trying to get his trial moved from Georgia state court to federal court. He is now asking a judge to pause the order denying the move to federal court. Why? Apparently Meadows is afraid that he could be convicted and incarcerated before an appeal to this case is even heard. We’ll talk to Gil Gross about these stories and the temporary ban on openly carrying guns in Albequerque, New Mexico.
Jefferson Graham will come through to talk tech.
Apple is making some big announcements today. Jefferson will join us after their press conference to give us the rundown on the new iPhone and more.
David Cay Johnston is looking at a story he broke ages ago that should have served as a warning for the media. What happens when the people who decide what news to present and how to present it have a personal agenda?
