Are critical progressive causes getting overshadowed by Russiagate? (John Tarleton)

Between the firing of FBI Director James Comey, the disclosure of highly classified information to Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov and  ambassador Sergey Kislyak and revelations of his alleged request to Comey to squash an investigation into his former national security adviser Michael Flynn, there's been more breaking news than ever this week on the ongoing saga of whether the Donald Trump administration illegally colluded with the Russian government. But with most major news  outlets operating at code red, are key progressive issues being  overshadowed by the nonstop news cycle? Jesse's guest John Tarleton,  editor-in-chief of The Indypendent (indypendent.org) thinks so. In this episode of TrumpWatch on WBAI 99.5fm New York, John explains why it is important to not let the issues the left has been fighting for get lost in the chaos.
