(Thom Hartmann speaks with Congressman Mark Pocan (D-WI, 2nd District) about Paul Ryan's new "poverty plan," Ryan's refusal to allow regular order in the House, and what it means for our nation's poor.)

Sen. Bernie Sanders and the Zombie-Eyed Granny-Starver (h/t Charlie Pierce) from Wisconsin are making the rounds on the Sunday bobblehead shows this weekend. I'm not expecting a concession from Sanders until the last primary is over, nor do I expect Ryan to admit that he's trying to have it both ways with his endorsement of Trump while attempting to distance himself as far as possible from almost everything that comes out of his mouth.

Sadly I do expect our Beltway Villagers to treat Ryan as though he's some sort of "expert" on the economy and a "voice of reason" in the Republican party, even though his policies are nothing more than the same, cruel, trickle-down economics and tax cuts for the wealthy that they've been pushing for decades even though it's long been obvious that those policies have failed.

It looks like Orange Julius is taking a break this weekend, but his surrogates will still be out in force. They let Katrina vanden Huevel back on the air on ABC again as a voice of reason, but not without the likes of "I used to be a Republican, but now I'm an independent" hack, both siderist Matthew Dowd and wrong-way Bloody Bill Kristol for "balance."

Any sanity coming from Joy Reid on NBC's Meet the Press will quickly be countered by hate talk radio host, a.k.a. Joe Scarborough and ChuckTodd's new BFF, Hugh Hewitt.

And oh goodie, Mittens decided to crawl back out of his garage elevator to attack Hair Drumpf now that it makes absolutely no difference whatsoever. Maybe he'll have some fairy tales for Jake Tapper about how they may change the rules at the convention if Trump doesn't learn to "get on script" some time soon and quit embarrassing all these poor Republicans who just can't figure out how all of these raving maniac racists managed to sneak their way into their party. Good luck with that Mitt.
