Strange Bedfellows, Ep. 17: Elizabeth Beck Interview

There's nothing democratic about the Democratic Party, and our guest tonight knows that from first-hand experience.

Tonight at 9 PM on "Strange Bedfellows," we'll talk to Elizabeth Lee Beck, the attorney who sued the Democratic National Committee in 2016 in a class-action lawsuit alleging that the #DNC defrauded individual #Bernie Sanders supporters by rigging the primaries for Hillary #Clinton. (The case was dismissed in 2017.)

In addition to the #DNCFraud lawsuit, Beck has also sued former President Donald #Trump twice (in 2011 and 2015) and questioned Trump in court depositions. We will ask her thoughts on Trump's current legal battles.

Earlier this year, Beck sued Twitter (now X) for breach of contract over the suspension of her account and that of her husband, attorney Jared Beck, four years ago. When Elon Musk bought Twitter last year, he pledged to restore all previously banned accounts that hadn't violated Twitter's Terms of Service. When the Becks' accounts were not restored as promised, they took Elon to court.

In their complaint, the Becks assert that they were suspended for "engaging in political speech antagonistic to the establishment Democratic Party interests."

We will get the latest from Elizabeth Beck on where that lawsuit currently stands, and discuss the future of #FreeSpeech on X and other social media platforms as the 2024 election season heats up.

On "Strange Bedfellows" we talk to fascinating people from all sides of the political spectrum, and always find points of agreement. A great conversation is always guaranteed!
