2. Dana Frank, professor of history at the University of California, Santa Cruz, talks about the upcoming presidential election in Honduras on November 24th – and the context of the current campaign relating to the 2009 coup, continuing repression of progressive activists while U.S. aid flows to the military and police.
3. Gareth Porter, an independent investigative journalist and historian who specializes in U.S. national security policy. Porter, author of the forthcoming book, “Manufactured Crisis: The Untold Story of the Iran Nuclear Scare,” to be published in February 2014, assesses the ongoing negotiations between Iran and the “5+1 group of nations,” (the U.S., Russia, China, France, Britain – the five permanent members of the UN Security Council and Germany) to reach a deal on limiting Iran’s capacity to build nuclear weapons in exchange for the lifting of harsh international economic sanctions against the Islamic Republic.

Dr. Flowers discusses the troubled first month of the Affordable Care Act, through both a medical and political lens.

• Kimberly Fountain, Social Security Expansion Campaign Director with the Progressive Change Campaign Committee talks about her group’s effort to expand the Social Security system by “scrapping the cap” on what millionaires and billionaires pay into Social Security contributions, financing benefit expansion and extending Social Security’s solvency for decades.
• Ellen Brown, Chairman and President of the Public Banking Institute and author of 11 books, including “Web of Debt: The Shocking Truth About Our Money System and How We Can Break Free,” discusses government regulation and oversight of the nation’s banks after the 2008 financial crisis — including the tentative agreement by JPMorgan Chase Bank to pay the U.S. Department of Justice a record $13 billion to settle civil investigations into mortgage-backed securities in the period before the 2008 financial meltdown — and the recent jury verdict that found Bank of America Corp. liable for fraud in the sale of defective mortgages through its Countrywide unit. Brown will also outline the public banking model that her group advocates.
