Donald Trump wants the American people to be depressed, despondent, defeated, and ultimately disengaged. But We The People MUST NOT accommodate him in that regard. There are so many ways to engage in this fight for American democracy, not all of which are intuitive. But there is a new book that provides a compelling, practical, and layman-friendly blueprint for how to fight against Trump's tyranny . . . and win, titled, "Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times, How to Reclaim Your Power, Fight for Freedom, and Reimagine Democracy." Skye Perryman, President and CEO of Democracy Forward, has authored a timely, must read how-to guide for defending democracy. Skye makes the case that defending democracy isn't the job of lawyers or politicians alone - it's a role for every one of us. This from Skye: "I started writing this book when it became undeniably clear, as our history also teaches, that it is not our institutions that will save us - not the courts, not corporate generosity, not the universities, not the media - but it is the people." Democracy is a team sport, and we ALL need to be in the game.

The Brooklyn Democratic Party passed a series of rule changes last week which reformers are calling a 'power grab' by the old guard, aimed at keeping the party's existing leaders in power, despite the protest of several prominent democrats.

While most of the political debate focuses on border tactics, Thom explores a simple, existing legal solution that politicians refuse to enforce: employer sanctions. From the "Texas Proviso" to Ronald Reagan's 1986 reforms, this video breaks down the history of how the business lobby and white supremacist ideologies have shaped America's immigration policy into a system of exploitation and terror.

We live in a moment when the working class is fractured along a great many lines. Gone are the days of solidarity built around a shared experience of factory work that formed the bedrock of Karl Marx's analysis of class struggle – and his vision of emancipation. Meanwhile in the halls of power, elites in our politics have failed for decades now to really grasp what people in Britain care about and need – resorting to lame stand-ins such as ‘Mondeo man' and ‘Stevenage woman', Farage's new favourite: ‘alarm clock Britain'. What are they missing? Lived experience, apart from anything else. On Downstream this week, Ash Sarkar sat down with campaigner and author Jonas Patrick Marvin to discuss his new book ‘The Breaking of the English Working Class'. Weaving autobiographical detail with political theory, Marvin tackles head-on the class forces that have shaped his own life. Why can't people born in London afford to stay and build lives there? Who gets to define themselves as working class, and on what grounds? How should the left respond to rising anti-immigration politics? Why has the working class become so fragmented, and what can be done to repair it?
Health concerns about President Trump are growing after he joined Trey Gowdy for a bizarre conversation covering golf, the economy, and foreign policy. Trump's statements were so strange that critics questioned what was really going through his mind, including peculiar claims about Canada and an unusual plea asking voters to imagine him on the 2026 midterm ballots. Trump also claimed to have "largely taken care of inflation."

A U.S. strike on Iran breaks a month-long lull, and Iran fires back. Trump just brokered a deal with the country sitting atop the world's largest oil reserves. At least 1 dead, more than a dozen missing at Grand Canyon after extreme flash flooding. Midterm Monday's w/ Jim Kennedy.
Hidden dynamics of anti-colonialism come to light when exploring the Syrian revolt of 1925 through a transnational lens. Associate Professor & Author Reem Bailony shares insights from her book, examining how the diaspora politics of the Syrian migrant community in the US connected to homeland politics and redefined identity during the French mandate. By centering on the often-overlooked diasporic story and the role of the Arabic press, the conversation unpacks the intense debate around the rebellion's virtues, goals, and shifting meanings. Ultimately, this episode reveals how exiled and migrant figures significantly shaped the international discourse surrounding the modern Middle East. 00:00 Introduction 00:52 Formative Academic Encounters with a Milestone Year 04:36 From Imperial Collapse to the Partitioning of a Region 07:30 Fragmented Visions & the Contested Landscape of Identity 10:08 Archival Discoveries & Cross-Generational Reflections 12:34 The Global Power of a Dispersed Press 16:13 The Mechanics of Petitioning an International Order 20:12 Ideological Divides in the Early Arabic Press 22:26 Mapping the Global Hubs of the Transnational Story 24:28 Borderland Crises & the Politics of Transnational Aid 28:32 The Realities of Local Support 33:35 De Facto Diplomacy & the Pen of an Exile 36:34 Petitions, Surveillance, & the Struggle to Define a Diaspora 46:44 Recommended Readings for Closer Investigation Reem Bailony is an Associate Professor of History at Agnes Scott College.

While we were away over the summer, it was hard to miss stories about Democratic primary elections and seeming rise of the Democratic Socialists of America — followed almost immediately about the challenges DSA candidates will face in November's election. For our first episode of the fall season, we talk with a social movement scholar about whether the DSA's policies can win over enough votes to win in a general election and why political coalitions don't always align with the structure of America's two-party system. Rory McVeigh is the Nancy Reeves Dreux Professor of Sociology at the University of Notre Dame and and Director of the Center for the Study of Social Movements. He is the author of Politics and Privilege: How the Status Wars Sustain Inequality, along with William Carbonaro, Chang Liu, and Kenadi Silcox. The book investigates whether Americans are more likely to support a social-change organization if it explicitly opposes racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and religious bigotry or if it focuses exclusively on economic equality. Drawing on the results, they argue that privileged groups' desire to preserve their status is the primary obstacle to forming progressive alliances. We discuss what these findings mean for the DSA, the Democratic Party, and the Republican Party as we head into the midterms and the next presidential election cycle.

From there he runs the board on eight Senate races where Democrats are polling ahead: Mary Peltola in Alaska, Jon Ossoff defending Georgia against Mike Collins, Josh Turek in Iowa, Troy Jackson taking on Susan Collins in Maine after Graham Platner exited the race, Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan against Mike Rogers, Roy Cooper with a commanding lead in North Carolina, Sherrod Brown mounting a comeback in Ohio, and James Talarico leading Ken Paxton in Texas. Hawk spends extra time on Talarico, whose polling shows unusually strong support among Black voters in Texas compared with past Democratic nominees, and on Paxton, whose fundraising has cratered to the point that Donald Trump is planning a rally for him. He also touches on the Jasmine Crockett dynamic in that race.

From there Hawk lays out the political reality. Even with 52 or 53 Senate seats, Democrats would be far short of the Republican votes needed for conviction, and a Republican-controlled Senate might decline to hold a trial at all. He notes how Mitch McConnell pointed to the courts after January 6th, and how impeachments historically boost a president's poll numbers, as they did for Bill Clinton and for Trump twice before. Weighing it out, Hawk points to an open 2028 White House, a Senate GOP already tired of Trump after the primary losses of John Cornyn, Bill Cassidy, and Thom Tillis, and his own mixed feelings. He explains why he leans toward moving on rather than grinding Congress to a halt, while acknowledging the constitutional argument for using the remedy the founders provided.

As described in the title. We also get an update on Michael's shoulder.
Donald Trump wants the American people to be depressed, despondent, defeated, and ultimately disengaged. But We The People MUST NOT accommodate him in that regard. There are so many ways to engage in this fight for American democracy, not all of which are intuitive. But there is a new book that provides a compelling, practical, and layman-friendly blueprint for how to fight against Trump's tyranny . . . and win, titled, "Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times, How to Reclaim Your Power, Fight for Freedom, and Reimagine Democracy." Skye Perryman, President and CEO of Democracy Forward, has authored a timely, must read how-to guide for defending democracy. Skye makes the case that defending democracy isn't the job of lawyers or politicians alone - it's a role for every one of us. This from Skye: "I started writing this book when it became undeniably clear, as our history also teaches, that it is not our institutions that will save us - not the courts, not corporate generosity, not the universities, not the media - but it is the people." Democracy is a team sport, and we ALL need to be in the game.
