Saddam Hussein should have been left to run Iraq, says CIA officer who interrogated him
Greg Palast with Thom Hartmann.
"As allegations that Russia may have interfered with the election to help Trump dominate the news cycle, other stories of election-rigging have fallen off the radar. But there’s still very good reason to believe a voter suppression scheme, created by Kansas Secretary of State and Trump advisor Kris Kobach, played a big — if not definitive roll in getting Trump elected.
"Essentially a glorified voter purge disguised as a tool to stop people 'double-voting’, Crosscheck kicked millions of people — overwhelmingly voters of color — off the voting rolls before Election Day. In many key states, the number of people purged by Crosscheck was much, much larger than Trump’s margin of victory.
"Crosscheck probably won Michigan for Trump. It also probably won him Wisconsin and Pennsylvania — and probably quite a few other states too!” — Thom Hartmann reports on the racially-biased-by-design tool of mass voter suppression known as Crosscheck and talks to Greg Palast about its devastating influence on the 2016 presidential election.
