Tom Bevan Show (09/16/2018) – Sally Parsons / A.B. Stoddard / Adele Malpas – On today’s show Sally Persons – White House Correspondent for Real Clear Politics. President Donald Trump created his own storm over a tweet about previous hurricanes and previous administrations preparations for those natural disasters. A.B. Stoddard – Associate Editor for Real Clear Politics. Updating the Brett Kavanaugh appointment to the U.S. Supreme court. An allegation about an incident while Kavanaugh was still in high school has been brought out after the hearings have ended. The decades old incident involves possible sexual misconduct with a female from another high school. The grassroots revolts against a Kavanaugh appointment have now have begun. Adele Malpass – National Political Reporter for Real Ckear Politics. Andrew Cuomo takes the vote in his race to return as Governor of New York. He spent a lot of money to win over challenger over Sex and the City star, Cynthia Ellen Nixon. Also, in New York, Tish James is now virtually guaranteed to become the state’s top legal officer in November. That position will almost immediately make her into a national figure—and perhaps the most influential state official in the country who isn’t a governor.

The final hurdles for the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court as nearly a half million documents on Kavanaugh’s background aren’t enough for supporting his background. The White House is citing ‘executive privilege’ as reason for withholding approximately 100 thousand records about Kavanaugh. Senator Chuck Schumer says the Trump administration is hiding something.

Now that Senator John McCain has been buried, who will take his place? McCain planned his own funeral and memorial services and excluded President Trump, but did invite former Presidents Bush and Obama.

With the final primary races in the can, Florida had a shocking outcome as Tallahassee Mayor, Andrew Gillum took the Democrats gubernatorial primary election from expected winner Gwendolyn Graham. He will now face Republican Ron DeSantis in the fall election.

Tom Bevan Show (08/12/2018) – Caitlin Huey-Burns / A.B. Stoddard / Kristen McQueary / Carl Cannon

Seg #1 – Caitlin Huey-Burns – A tight runoff election in Ohio’s 12th District between Republican Troy Balderson who had 50 percent, (101,574 votes), while Democrat Danny O’Connor had 49 percent (99,820 votes). With the decision still awaiting a final tally, the outcome is a strong alarm to GOP leaders who need to save the seat when it comes up again in the fall general election. Can Democrats find enough votes to take the seat away after 35 years of Republican control.

Seg #2 – A.B. Stoddard – The successor for Speaker of the House, currently held by Wisconsin Representative, Paul Ryan heats up as expected successor Kevin McCarthy confronts President Donald Trump’s support of Ohio Representative, Jim Jordan who added his name into the consideration list last week. On the other side of the aisle, can Nancy Pellosi keep her seat as Minority Leader and who (if anybody) could take her place?

Seg #3 – Kristen McQueary – Chicago Mayor, Rahm Emanuel has a gang and crime problem and while he acknowledges the situation, it appears that he can only push the blame to others, including Governor, Bruce Rauner. With calls for his resignation from religious leaders and challenges from nine declared candidates currently running against him; Emanuel has several battles to fight in addition to ramping up his re-election campaign.

Seg #4 – Carl Cannon – Infowars and it’s mouthpiece, Alex Jones has has several social media accounts (Facebook, iTunes, YouTube, Pinterest, MailChimp, and more) suspended or postings pulled because of their content which have been classified as “hate speech” and “misinformation”. Where do these organizations draw the line between free speech and censorship and are they playing by the same rules? The first few pre-season games in the NFL’s new season have taken place and player protests during the National Anthem continued… as did President Trump’s comments about it.

GDP (Gross Domestic Product) numbers came out and they exceeded expectations.  Do voters realize how this economic growth translates to more job opportunity and bigger paychecks?

Primary elections are almost over and campaigns are taking shape for the fall elections.  State Governors and politicians on Capitol Hill are preparing for big fights this fall.

Another incident in the White House created by a media member who wouldn’t follow the rules, lands them banned from future events.  Will the media screamers learn patience, obedience, and decorum?

Tom Bevan (10/15) Guests: A. B. Stoddard, Caitlin Huey-Burns, James Arkin, Carl M. Cannon.

AB Stoddard reports on forced healthcare reform. Is President Trump trying to force a meeting of both sides so they can come to compromise?

Caitlin Huey-Burns updates the 2017/2018 elections. New Jersey and Virginia have important gubernatorial races and California Senator, Dianne Feinstein announced she is running for her 6th term at age 84. Will younger voters seek a candidate who better reflects their age and ideas?

James Arkin thinks that many politicians on Capitol Hill are concerned about the feud between President Trump and leaders like Senator Bob Corker could lead to further separation of the GOP and the President.

Carl Cannon lais out the details in the Harvey Weinstein story. He went from mogul to rehab in just a few hours, but have past perverts like Clinton, Cosby, and Ailes help to give Weinstein a pass. How could the accusations go on for decades without anyone saying anything? Will NBC suffer any flack for passing on the story but pushing the “Billy Bush Tape” of Donald Trump apparently at the same time?
