Tonight on the May 19 edition of This Is America, with Jon Elliott...

Jon's guest will be Newsweek's Deputy Washington Bureau Chief Dan Ephron. Ephron will be on to discuss his latest article, Gitmo Grievances: Assigned to try detainees in the War on Terror, three former Guantánamo prosecutors now say the military-commission system is badly damaged. The article focuses on several military prosecutors who have left their posts at Guantánamo Bay Naval Base because they believe the tribunal process there is deeply flawed. None of these men is a bleeding-heart type; they are spit-and-polish career officers. But in the past four years, at least five of them have quit their jobs or walked away from Gitmo cases because they believed their own integrity was being compromised. In interviews with Newsweek, three former prosecutors voiced concerns about issues ranging from the use of tainted evidence or secret trials to improper micromanaging by political appointees.

Also Jon will be continuing to read the e-mails sent to Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) by Americans concerning the shrinking economy. And of course Jon will be taking your calls at 866-303-2270. So make sure to tune in to tonight's jam packed edition of This Is America with Jon Elliott.
