A new report by Public Citizen’s Corporate Presidency project has found that Donald Trump is millions of dollars richer since he began running for President, directly by virtue of his campaign run and Presidential tenure. On our show today we’ll speak with the report’s author Alan Zibel. Then, we’ll continue our coverage of Syria and misinformation around the chemical attack in Douma with Dr. Stephen Zunes. We’ll discuss how opposition to US militarism can co-exist with accepting the reality of Syrian suffering at the hands of Bashar Al-Assad and his allies. Finally, as public trust in media continues to erode and newsrooms remain dominated by white male perspectives, we’ll feature a new project – a collaboration between lawyers and journalists called Community Based News Room. Chaumtoli Haq with the group Law at the Margins will be our guest.
