7/26 Matt Taibbi, the Grand Financial Illusion

July 26, 2012

Matt Taibbi talks with Sam about the Audit the FED bill that passed the house and the lack of media coverage the last time around, why Guy Lawson’s book Octopus is so good at explaining how Wall street works and a revealing interview Thomas Friedman did with a tough radio host in New Zealand.

After calling for a Police general strike in favor of gun control, Mike Bloomberg endorses anti gun control Scott Brown for Senate. A new study concludes that Medicare saves lives (shocker) and 2012 is the hottest year on record in the United States. You will never believe what Mitt Romney said to the Brits about the Olympics.
