(27,995 posts)I am setting her show to record everyday now. She really goes there all the time. I'm starting to worry for her personal safety.

(19,818 posts)She said it will be up to the free media to do this work themselves.
She is doing just that...................

Congress is not planning on calling for testimony from dossier author Christopher Steele...who resurfaced today.

The president and his subordinates conspired with an unfriendly foreign major power to overrun our democracy. To me, they are traitors.

(1,353 posts)And it seems that dossier is still being investigated and many parts are proving true...bet all of it is. The author is resurfacing in London and would love to see him come to the US and make the rounds on MSM if the Intel committees won't ask him to testify...
Good stuff lately on Rachel...Russia runs very deep in Trumpland.

to launder money for Iran's revolutionary guard and for $$$ skimmed off the top
of Azerbaijian oil production by people in the government.

Is such a thing possible even?

Being complicit is just as bad.

(5,270 posts)MSNBC called Sen. Warner tonight who said he didn't expect Christopher Steele, author of dossier to be called up any time in near future as part of investigation that is being chaired by Sen. Burr
She has reached the point of being resigned and discouraged that nothing will happen regarding investigation since Justice Dept and Congressional investigation committees are all headed by Trump campaign appointees and/or supporters- so nothing more will be discovered or brought out except by the media like herself.
Edited to add Rep Adam Schiff, Dem, head minority of Congress's investigation just appeared on her show and said he is going to request Steele be contacted and will do everything he can to arrange that, including going to Steele in UK, rather than Steele having to travel to US to discuss his investigation re the TrumpCampaign/Russia dossier.

(40,416 posts)Point your podcast aggregator towards "Rachel Maddow". There are both video and audio versions. The audio version is only 10MB, easily accessible for even download limited users. Rachel is so descriptive that audio only works very fine indeed.
Recommended for those without TV, or cable.

(9,525 posts)I go to find the podcast? This would be a great alternative to me since I dont have TV so wouldnt have to wait till the next day for it to be posted on MSNBC.

(17,679 posts)If you're interested in other wonderful radio, This American Life and The Moth Radio Hour are terrific.
But Rachel is must-see, or hear.
Do you listen to your music on an ipod or from itunes on your computer? Or ?
If you don't have itunes, you can download it at itunes.com. Rachel's podcast and those above are free.
I'm no expert but please feel free to inquire more if you run into a roadblock. I'll help if I can and I'm sure the rest of DU will too
