|
| It's Daylight Saving Time, and we have a 'hack' that might help adjust to the switch. Pres. Biden delivered a feisty State of the Union that freaked out Republicans. The GOP's SOTU response was bizarre, promoting an outrageous lie to mislead the public about border issues. Biden Admin. releases new budget focused on expanding social programs and raising taxes on the rich/corporations to pay their fair share. Trump hosted and celebrated Hungarian dictator Viktor Orban in FL. Thousands marched outside the Academu Awards broadcast to protest Israel's attack on Gaza. Callers weigh in.

| Super Tuesday: Notable results and voting problems
|
| PLEASE DONATE to KPFK! We cover notable results, news, concerns, and voting system problems from Super Tuesday's 16 states primaries and caucuses. Biden and Trump won nearly all of their contests, but Trump's support was significantly eroded by Nikki Haley, who dropped out of the race without endorsing him. Other notable results include a Holocaust-denying Republican nominee in North Carolina, and a substantial 'Uncommitted' vote protesting the Biden Administration's policies towards Israel's war in Gaza that appears to be bearing fruit.

| US Supreme Court ruling on 14th Amendment's Insurrection Clause; 2024 Election
|
| PLEASE DONATE to KPFK! The corrupt rightwing supermajority on the US Supreme Court reverse-engineered a ruling to prevent states from using the plain language of 14th Amendment's 'Insurrection Clause' to disqualify Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot. The dissenting liberal justices made clear the 9-0 ruling was really 5-4. Former U.S. Asst. Deputy Attorney General LISA GRAVES and legal journalist CHRIS GEIDNER explain the legal aspects of the hypocritical ruling by the rightwing justices, with context, history, and insight. Also today: GOP contender Nikki Haley won her first GOP primary, Trump threatened voters, and Super Tuesday is on March 5 - be sure to vote!
