On today’s show, we have Mother Jones Magazine’s energy and environmental policy reporter, Kate Sheppard here to talk about oil and gas policy and the GOP’s crazy conspiracy theories about the EPA.

We’ll also talk to the Communications Director of the ACLU of Illinois, Ed Yohnka, about the renewal of the Patriot Act and how the city of Chicago has more surveillance cameras than any other city in the USA.

We’ll also discuss the movement to urge President Obama to give a recess appointment to Elizabeth Warren.

Plus, we have the founder of a new group that calls itself the “Green” Tea Party, and we have an exclusive interview with Sleeping America.

Our writer/performers today are Josh Bolotsky and Bob Rok.
