we discuss the 2016 elections, accusations that his and my site are Russian Propaganda sites, left/progressive responses to Trump, Trump's first days in office, neocons and neoliberals, taking back the Democratic party.

Brief notes-- mostly my questions:

Your site was, along with my site, OpEdNews, listed by propornot, which the Washington Post hi lighted, as a russian propaganda site. What is your response and what are your thoughts on that?

What did you think of the election-- primaries, general, the role of the media, of russia, of Comey and intelligence agencies?

What's your take on the accusations that the Russians hacked the elections?

You wrote an article recently, Trump's declaration of war. How's he doing?

You said, "The easiest way for a president to "lead" is to accommodate the agendas of the powerful interest groups. Is this what the left wants Trump to do? If not, why is the left helping the interest groups to force Trump into this role?"

You wrote another article about the left. Talk about the left, progressives, liberals, democrats"

What can Democrats and the left do, given that Trump is taking a pro-worker position

Paul wraps up with some very kind words about OpEdNews
