Yet again another massacre occurred this week in America. It was disconcerting that it seemed so matter of fact. It was the largest mass shooting in America.
Today, let’s discuss how immoral lobbyists help create failed politicians who implicitly cause the death of our fellow Americans.
Before I get to the program, I want to remind all our listeners that KPFT is a bastion of intelligent voices and programs. As a political activist, my favorites are
- The Monitor with Mark Bebawi on Mondays at 7:00 PM
