With impeachment of Donald Trump now all but inevitable, his highest ranking defenders, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Attorney General William Barr, have gone to unprecedented lengths to ensure he gets away with his crimes.   This week, Stu and AJ unpack how both these men are unabashedly assaulting the responsibilities of the institutions they lead and turning them into arms of Trump's re-election campaign.   PLUS!

Even as the Trumps debase themselves to attack the 16 year-old, she remains classy, uncompromising in her vital goals, and a true inspiration to all of us.   This is your country for the week of December 16, 2019!   Produced by Sam Graber Engineered by Mark Charles, recorded at the Ramshackler Room, Louisville, KY Music by Mike Michel
