The Rick Smith Show 2-2-2026

from The Rick Smith Show Hosted by Rick Smith

On this episode of the Rick Smith Show Rick kicks off with investigative reporter Greg Palast, who exposes the “real story” behind the FBI raid on Fulton County, Atlanta, arguing it’s less about 2020 and more about Trump’s fixation on his loss as a pretext to supercharge voter suppression against Black and brown communities in future elections. Palast previews his film, Vigilantes Inc.: America’s New Vote Suppression Hitmen, and how listeners can catch the upcoming showing at gregpalast.com. Later, Rick talks with Charmaine S. Morales, RN, president of UNAC/UHCP, about 31,000 California nurses and health professionals on strike, their fight over staffing and safety, and the damning new report, Profits Over Patients: Kaiser Permanente’s Shift in Institutional Priorities.
