Thom Hartmann: Meet TISA - Evil Cousin of TSA

Richard Eskow, Campaign for America's Future/The Zero Hour (radio) joins Thom. Jamie Dimon says that Elizabeth Warren doesn't know anything about the world of international banking. He's kidding - right? Or is he really trying to "mansplain" economics to the woman who literally wrote the book on how Wall Street has destroyed the middle class?

It's not like when Obama pushed for extending for 2 years the bush tax give-aways to the uber rich. So, another bennie for the uber rich. We had been suffering under it for years what was another 2 years? Besides we got a one year tax relief for the working population and extended for a year unemployment benefits for millions of people. So 2 years of under-funding the federal government and giving the rich yet another free ride was bearable - barely.

But this trade agreement is a monster. It gives so much power and authority to multinational corporations and the presidency that we the people would be left with merely a shell of a democracy. So, why is Obama pushing so hard for it? Why is he pulling out all this whoop a** that he's never used before? And he is using it on his own party.
