With Trump's return to office, some have high hopes for his relationship with Israel. But amid the Gaza war, will his policies help? Those arguing “yes” say Trump has given Israel unprecedented backing and would continue shifting U.S. policy in favor of Israeli sovereignty and security. Those arguing “no” are concerned that his policies would result in trouble for Gaza and make a two-state solution less feasible. Now we debate: Is Trump Good for Israel? Arguing Yes: Einat Wilf, Former Member of Israeli "Knesset"; Co-author of "The War of Return" Arguing No: Jeremy Ben-Ami, Founder and President of J Street Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates Visit OpentoDebate.org to watch more insightful debates.

In this episode, Dr. Jabareen discusses several key discriminatory bills advancing through the Knesset, placing them within a broader legal and political context. He provides critical insights into the Knesset's legislative agenda and the growing political consensus around oppressive measures, underscoring the severe implications for Palestinians.

*) UN warns of dire Middle East situation as Israel escalates its war on Gaza The United Nations' Middle East peace process coordinator, Tor Wennesland, warned the international community about a severe escalation in the Middle East, describing the situation as being at the "most dangerous juncture in decades." Speaking to the UN Security Council, Wennesland highlighted that ongoing Israeli violence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and shows no signs of stopping. Wennesland specifically addressed a deadly Israeli air strike in Beit Lahiya on Monday that killed or left missing at least 90 Palestinians, including 25 children. *) Healthcare system in northern Gaza collapses as Israeli invasion continues The healthcare system in northern Gaza has collapsed amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes, according to Hussam Abu Safiya, Director of Kamal Adwan Hospital. In an urgent statement, Abu Safiya warned that all injured individuals brought to the hospital are succumbing to their wounds due to a severe lack of medical resources. He pleaded for international assistance to allow ambulances into the blockaded area to evacuate victims of the attacks, noting that currently, not a single ambulance is operational in northern Gaza. *) Palestine weighs bringing Israel's UNRWA ban before UNSC The Palestinian presidency has announced plans for diplomatic measures following the Israeli Knesset's approval of laws prohibiting the UN Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) from operating in occupied territories. According to the official Palestinian news agency WAFA, the presidency will urgently engage with countries hosting Palestinian refugees, exploring options to present the issue before the UN Security Council and General Assembly. The presidency emphasised that UNRWA's presence is crucial for addressing the Palestinian issue in line with international law and legitimacy. *) Sudan conflict: UN report accuses RSF of sexual violence, forced captivity A UN fact-finding mission has reported that Sudan's Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and allied militias have committed widespread sexual violence against civilians, including abduction of women as sex slaves, throughout Sudan's ongoing 18-month conflict. Victims, ranging in age from eight to 75, have been targeted in what the report describes as a strategy to terrorise and punish communities with perceived links to opposition forces. Mission chair Mohamed Chande Othman called the scale of sexual violence "staggering" in an 80-page report based on interviews with victims, families, and witnesses. *) EU slaps extra tariffs on Chinese-built EVs, risking Beijing retaliation The European Union announced it will impose additional tariffs on Chinese-built electric vehicles, reaching up to 45.3 percent, following a year-long anti-subsidy investigation that has intensified trade tensions with Beijing. The new tariffs will vary by manufacturer, with Tesla facing an additional 7.8 percent and China's SAIC 35.3 percent, on top of the EU's standard 10 percent car import duty. The decision, formally approved by the European Commission on Tuesday, will be published in the EU's Official Journal by Wednesday and will take effect the next day.

We were so fortunate to speak with former MK and UNRWA expert, Einat Wilf, who has been calling out the farce of UNRWA being financed and treated by the world as a humanitarian organization for decades. UNRWA promotes a narrative and policy advocating the destruction of Israel and glorifying terrorism. The mask came off irreversibly on October 7, 2023. New legislation passed overwhelmingly in the Knesset yesterday. And there is no one better to explain what happened and why, than Einat Wilf.

Dr. Einat Wilf on Israeli-Palestinian Conflict (Interview) In this episode, I had the privilege of engaging in a profound conversation with Dr. Einat Wilf on the intricate dynamics of the Israeli-Palestinian and Jewish-Arab conflict. Despite her demanding itinerary between Tel Aviv and Los Angeles, Dr. Wilf, a distinguished expert in Middle Eastern affairs, generously took the time to join me at the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles for a 45-minute discussion. Our conversation explored the nuanced and deeply rooted complexities of one of the world's most enduring geopolitical conflicts. Dr. Wilf is a renowned scholar and former member of the Israeli Knesset, with a distinguished academic background including a BA from Harvard, an MBA from INSEAD, and a PhD in Political Science from the University of Cambridge. Her extensive research, which spans over three decades, has positioned her as a leading authority on the Arab-Israeli conflict. She is also the author of seven influential books and numerous essays on the topic and has served as the Goldman Visiting Professor at Georgetown University. Our dialogue avoided oversimplified narratives and eschewed polarized views of the conflict. Instead, it embraced the multifaceted nature of historical events and the differing perspectives that must be considered. This episode does not aim to provide conclusive answers but rather invites reflection on the challenging realities of the conflict. I encourage listeners to explore the insights shared and draw their own conclusions. For further exploration, I have included Dr. Wilf's biography and links to her published works in the podcast notes.

Israeli Knesset members Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotrich have been advancing “total victory,” and they don't just mean defeating Hamas or returning the hostages. This week, Donniel Hartman and Yossi Klein Halevi discuss the small but powerful far-right messianic movement in Israel that these MKs represent, and how the current war has emboldened their agenda in the West Bank, on the Temple Mount, and across the region.

This Monday Lisa Dettmer we will look at the security of our election system with our guests Emily Levy and Marilyn Marks who are working to make our election system more transparent and secure. While happily the polls show support for Harris as stronger than Biden's were and gaining on Trump in swing states there are still ways the Republicans are working hard to manipulate this election. MSNBC has recognized that the Republican's are planning election manipulation especially in swing states and has been covering problems with concerns about potential certification delays a lot recently, but around the country election systems that are not verifiable and transparent are in jeopardy of being hacked or subverted and this is especially true in In Georgia which is an essential swing state , and where the ‘Biggest Election Breach' in History Has Gone Uninvestigated. Recently the non profit non partisan paper NOTUS covered this breach writing “It's been more than three years since a team of Republican officials engaged in a covert operation to illegally access a rural Georgia county's electronic elections system and appear to have made off with sensitive computer information — after briefing Donald Trump on aspects of that plan in the White House .Yet no one — not the feds, not state elections officials, not even local law enforcement — has ascertained exactly what happened in Coffee County, Georgia, a rural patch of the politically deep red American South.” And this is only the tip of the ice berg of election fraud possibilities in Georgia and many other states including California that don't have a way to verify votes or have enough poll workers to make sure the system works fairly”. . So today we talk to two women who are working on voter transparency. Emily Levy is the Executive Director of Scrutineers.org, a progressive, nonpartisan online community dedicated to fair, transparent, accessible, and secure elections. An activist for over 50 years, Emily has been a leader in the election transparency movement dating to 2004 and specializes in helping members of the public understand election technology and security issues and to become active in the movement And Marilyn Marks is the Executive Director of Coalition for Good Governance, a non-partisan non-profit organization dedicated to transparent government and evidence-based elections. Marilyn is the driving force behind the much-watched Curling v. Kemp lawsuit against Georgia's election officials to rid the state of unverifiable, touch screen electronic equipment. And You can get more information from Marilyn Marks about her work in Georgia around election transparency at Marilyn@uscgg.org and for the group go to https://coalitionforgoodgovernance.org/ If you want to weigh in with Georgia's State Election Board to encourage a transparent verifiable election in Georgia, let Marilyn know and she will send you some recommended messages. You can hear the show live at 94.1FM or at www.kpfa.org where the show is streaming and will be available afterward to stream and download at Women's Magazine's archives at kpfa.org And we will talk to Aida Touma-Sliman who is a Feminist Activist, Israeli Palestinian Politician and Palestinian Citizen of Israel Touma-Sliman is a member of the Israeli Knesset representing Hadash which is the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality), and an Arab-Jewish party. She was first elected in 2015 and served as the first Arab chair of the Knesset statutory Committee for the Status of Women and Gender Equality till 2022. MK Touma-Sliman was the first woman to serve in the High Follow-Up Committee for Arab Citizens of Israel and is Co-founder of the International Women Commission for Just Palestinian-Israeli Peace. She is also a secretary member of the World Peace Council. Aida was suspended from the Knesset last year for criticizing the Israeli military assault on Gaza. Despite endless attacks by the mainstream Jewish media and right wing politicians in Israel Touma-Sliman recently initiated in the Knesset a special session titled “Recognition of a Palestinian State – Why Now? In order to begin discussion of a two state solution for Palestinians for which she and her supporters were verbally attacked by right wing Knesset members. But still she keeps on fighting for peace for Palestinians. The post Aida Touma-Sliman on Palestine and Gaza and Emily Levy and Marilyn Marks on Election Transparency appeared first on KPFA.
On this edition of Parallax Views, Israel commentator Ori Goldberg joins me from Tel Aviv to discuss the rocket that hit a soccer field in the Druze village of Majdal Shams within the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights. Israel has blamed the attacked on a Hezbollah strike. Hezbollah denied being behind the attack. Speculation arose that it was actually due to a malfunction of Israel's Iron Dome. That said, there is evidence that this was likely a Hezbollah rocket. In any case, 12 Druze children perished due to the rocket. At the funeral for the dead children, members of the Druze community protested the presence of Israeli ministers. Meanwhile, a number of Israelis are turning "We Are All Druze Now" into a slogan as fears of a full-blown war between Israel and Hezbollah grow. Ori offers his thoughts on the incident, and makes the case that the deaths of the Druze children was likely accidental based on Hezbollah past history and concerns that any false move could start a war. He DOES NOT deny that Hezbollah conducted strikes. Nor does he seek to deny the tragedy of children being killed. Additionally, he questions/challenges the conspiracy theories arising that this was an Israeli false flag and gives his reasons for believing this is not the case. With that in mind, he cautions against drawing any firm conclusions about whether this was a mistake or intentional until there is further investigation. Ori also argues that this will not lead to a war between Israel and Hezbollah because, in his analysis, neither the IDF or Hezbollah want a full-blown war at this time. In addition to all of this we'll also discuss the death of Mohammad Bhar, a young Palestinian man afflicted with autism and Down syndrome who was mauled by an Israel Defense Forces attack dog and bled out in the aftermath. Moreover, we will discuss the Israeli psyche at this moment, the situation of the Bedouin and Druze minorities in Israel and discrimination against them, the Basic Law: Israel as the Nation-State of the Jewish People that was passed by the Israeli Knesset in 2018, why Ori believes the Gaza war is slouching towards an inevitable close/end, Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to U.S. congress, post-war Gaza and "The Day After", Netanyahu announcing the he's "postponing" the departure of sick children from Gaza who need life-saving therapy because of the Majdal Shams indecent, the blowing up of Rafah's water reservoir, Israeli hopes of introducing "de-radicalization" into Gazan education post-war, and much, much more.
On this edition of Parallax Views, Amb. Patrick Theros returns to discuss his The National Herald op-eds "Be Careful What You Wish For…" and "Tribe and Clan Wars – Is Proportional Representation the Solution?". At the beginning of the show, however, we discuss the Israeli Knesset's ruling against a two-state solution in the Israel/Palestine conflict. What does it actually mean and entail? We'll also discuss the expansion of settlements in the West Bank, what the future of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict means for the U.S. and its standing in the world, Israel's lack of a vision for the future beyond war, and related subject. Then, at around the fifteen minute mark, we will turn our attention to United States domestic politics. Firstly, we'll discuss the American two-party system and how the country's tribal war, between a Democratic "blue tribe" and a Republican "red tribe", are actually not an accurate depiction, in Amb. Theros' estimation, of the political landscape. Instead of just tribal war, Amb. Theros argues, we have clan wars. In other words, voters that are only concerned with specific issues fighting for those issues within the two-parties and often feeling dissatisifed within those parties when other factions win greater favor. This has manifested in the Republican Party, Amb. Theros say, in the abortion debate and in the Democratic Party in regard to the pro-Palestinian activists in the party who are upset with the Biden administration's handling of Gaza. We will also discuss the historic Supreme Court decision in Trump v. United States and the unprecedented power it gives to the President. Moreover, we'll discuss how this could come back to haunt Republicans. Finally, we will delve into the issue of Biden's performance at the first Presidential debate with Trump and whether or not he should drop out of the election.

*) US restricts visas of Israelis accused of West Bank ‘violence' The United States has announced new visa restrictions against Israelis who have committed “violent” acts against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. It called on Israel to hold those individuals accountable. The measures bar certain Israelis and their loved ones from entering the United States. *) Israeli Knesset rejects Palestinian statehood in controversial vote In a controversial move, Israel's Knesset has approved a resolution that overwhelmingly rejects the establishment of a Palestinian state, passing with a vote of 68-9. Even though Palestine is recognised by 147 of the 193 UN member states already, the matter was brought to the Israeli Knesset to discuss the recognition of its statehood. The resolution raised doubt on whether Tel Aviv is in a position to grant independence to occupied Palestinians. *) Hezbollah warns Israel over strikes targeting civilians in Lebanon Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has warned that his group would hit new targets in Israel if more civilians were killed in Israeli strikes on Lebanon. Nasrallah said “if the enemy continues to target civilians as it has done in recent days,” then this will push Hezbollah to target localities that it has not targeted until now. The Lebanese movement has exchanged almost daily fire with Israeli troops in support of Palestinian resistance group Hamas following Israel's war on Gaza. *) Biden tests positive for Covid-19, halts campaign trail US President Joe Biden has tested positive for Covid-19 while on a campaign trip to Las Vegas and is experiencing mild symptoms, the White House said. White House said Biden would not be able to speak at scheduled events due to the diagnosis. The White House said it will provide regular updates on the president's status as “he continues to carry out the full duties of the office while in isolation.” *) FIFA opens probe into Argentina players' racist chants FIFA said it was opening an investigation into racist chants by Argentina players after they won the Copa America. The chants were heard during a live video posted on social media by Chelsea and Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernandez from the team bus in the wake of the Copa victory over Colombia in Miami. Some players, including Fernandez, sang a chant dating back to the 2022 World Cup final in which Argentina beat France, targeting France's star striker Kylian Mbappe and included insults.
A few days ago, Israeli Knesset member Sharren Haskel, who was born in Canada, made headlines when she said her 88-year-old grandmother, who lives outside of Paris, had been badly beaten by two Arab suspects who noticed the visibly Jewish elderly woman wearing a Star of David necklace. The alleged attack is part of a series of antisemitic violence against French Jews that has sprung up since Oct. 7—and spiked even higher in the run-up to the recent French election. Over the weekend, early ballot results proved a surge in popularity for the federal far-right party with Holocaust-denial roots, led by Marine Le Pen, but also tallied the shocking victory of a hastily assembled leftist coalition whose leader has sided with Palestinians, engaged in antisemitic tropes and downplayed the antisemitism problem sweeping France. Haskel posted on social media that France has abandoned its responsibility to protect Jews, and argues it's time for her grandmother—and other Diaspora Jews—to move to Israel for their own safety. The Israeli politician warns that these same antisemitic currents in France are also at play here in Canada, and brought her message directly to this country's lawmakers and Jewish leaders during a recent trip to Toronto and Ottawa, sponsored by the Exigent Foundation. Haskel joined The CJN Daily's Ellin Bessner to explain why she thinks Canada is seeing the growing influence of the forces of Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood, and why Canada's pro-Palestinian stance on the war—including support for UNRWA—is like "a knife in the back" that "will cost Israeli lives." What we talked about: Read Haskel's article in a French newspaper from July 3 about how France is failing to protect its Jews from radical Islam Learn why Haskel's IDF military service during the Second Intifada coloured her views of possible peace with Palestinians, in The CJN from 2017, and read other Sharren Haskel coverage in The CJN archives Follow Haskel on Instagram **Credits: ** The CJN Daily is written and hosted by Ellin Bessner (@ebessner on Twitter).

Have you ever had a neighbor shout out that they want you to die? Do they teach their children that their greatest possible accomplishment would be to kill you and people like you?That's how it is for Israelis. Most of their neighbors in Gaza and the West Bank want Jews dead. In fact, many parents in those areas see killing Jews as the highest possible goal for their kids.Israeli Knesset Member Ohad Tal joins Sara today to share what it was like to live through Iran's weekend barrage of hundreds of missiles and drones aimed at his country. He and his family not only had to endure the incoming weapons but also their Palestinian neighbors running into the streets screaming for Jews to be killed.Thankfully, the Iron Dome and missile defense operations from the U.S., the United Kingdom, Jordan, and others successfully stopped 99 percent of the weapons. But Iran's sinister intent is obvious.Tal explains why Israel must retaliate against Iran - because perceived weakness in the Middle East invites more violence. And he says this must happen whether such action has the blessing of the U.S. or not.Tal also outlines what goals have to be met before the war against Hamas can end, including the safe return of all hostages and the total demolition of Hamas.Finally, he shares a stunning story of just how deep the hatred for Jews runs among the Palestinians.Thank you for being a part of the Sara Carter Show.Please visit our great sponsors:Goldcohttp://saralikesgold.comGet your free gold kit today and learn how to get $10,000 in bonus silver.

Israeli military action continues to devastate the civilian population in Gaza. A three-day siege at Al-Shifa hospital is ongoing, though thousands are sheltering there. The IDF claims the site is being used by "senior Hamas terrorists," saying it's killed ninety of them. The bombardment is pushing Gaza towards a devastating humanitarian crisis: A UN-backed organization reports that half of Gaza, more than a million people, is on the brink of catastrophic hunger. David Miliband is President and CEO of the International Rescue Committee. He is a former British Foreign Secretary and is himself a child of holocaust refugees.

14 countries, including Canada and the US, suspended funding to the U.N.'s Palestinian Refugee Agency in response to Israeli allegations that 12 employees were involved in the attack on Israel on October 7th, and roughly 10% of their employees in Gaza have links to Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Human rights workers argue that this is a form of collective punishment that will have dire consequences on a population already suffering from widespread hunger, displacement, and disease. Furthermore, cutting off payments to Palestinian refugees in the West Bank, Lebanon, and Syria could destabilize an already volatile region. UNRWA's critics argue that by keeping Palestinians in a perpetual state of refugee status, the organization prevents them from setting down roots elsewhere in the region and thus acts as an obstacle to peace. Given the irrefutable evidence of its ties to Hamas and support of terror against Israel, they argue, there is no reason to continue to fund an agency openly committed to the right of return for Palestinian refugees and the elimination of the Jewish State. Arguing in favour of the resolution is Kenneth Roth, the former Executive Director of Human Rights Watch Arguing against the resolution is Einat Wilf, former member of the Israeli Knesset and the author of The War of Return: How Western Indulgence of the Palestinian Dream Has Obstructed the Path to Peace SOURCE: ABC News, UN WATCH The host of the Munk Debates is Rudyard Griffiths Tweet your comments about this episode to @munkdebate or comment on our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/munkdebates/ To sign up for a weekly email reminder for this podcast, send an email to podcast@munkdebates.com.

As Israel enters the ground invasion phase of its war with Gaza, public perception of Israel has fallen in the eyes of many, especially younger people who don't have all the facts. In addition, international bodies like the United Nations and European Union have skewed pro-Arab to the detriment of Israeli lives. Host Steven Shalowitz sits down with Ruth Wasserman Lande, a former Israeli Knesset member, to discuss the hypocrisy of protesters supporting those whose values diametrically oppose they're own, how Israel values Palestinian lives more than their own government, and Iran's involvement in the attacks.

The government undermines the security and the well-being of the state and its citizens.” Cassif, who is Jewish and served in Israel's military, goes on: “Because I stand with Israel, I stand against the government of Israel. Because I stand with Israel, I stand with the Palestinians.” Rational, empathetic voices like Ofer's have become not only controversial in today's political culture, but illegal. “There is now persecution of every and any voice which is in opposition to the war, to the assault on Gaza, or even expresses any sympathy for the children of Gaza. People who try to demonstrate are violently beaten by police.” And after the interview concluded, Ofer called us back to share an ominous breaking update: “Netanyahu and his thugs use the smokescreen of the war to impose a martial law on Israeli citizens, predominantly Palestinian ones: PROTESTS ARE PROHIBITED AND CAN NOW BE ANSWERED WITH LIVE AMMUNITION, workers and students are suspended and dissidents are persecuted for posts on the social network. “I plea to the world - supporting the Israeli government is not supporting Israeli people - it is supporting fascism, death and dictatorship. If you wish to help Israeli people in this dire time - support the peace movement, not the warmongers who waged a war against their own people!” Subscribe for the full interview with Ofer Cassif where he responds to Bernie Sanders' refusal to call for a ceasefire, the only way to find a solution to this war, and his dire warning if we continue on this path: “We are on the verge of an international or even world war, and everyone is going to pay the price.” And after listening to the extended interview, we challenge you to find any US politician with half as much journalistic knowledge or bravery to criticize their own government as Ofer Cassif.

The world is witnessing in real time a genuine mass slaughter of humans. The carnage in Gaza is rapidly descending in horror on the scale of the Nazi slaughter of Jews in World War 2 and the Turk's genocide of Armenian Christians in 1915. Western nations are applauding Israel's bombing rampage in Palestinian neighborhood, churches, mosques, and hospitals. American Evangelical church leaders are using the Old Testament biblical scriptures as justification of Israel's bloodlust to kill off 2.5 million Palestinian men, women, and children. Today, a member of the Israeli Knesset openly endorsed genocide and proposed the complete destruction of every city and town in Gaza.Rick Wiles, Doc Burkhart.

From an early age, Nayyera has sought to understand how the American Dream worked for her while others around the world struggle.

Last month, the Israeli Knesset considered a bill that would make religious evangelism punishable by up to two years in prison.
Emma hosts Joanna Schwartz, professor at UCLA Law School, to discuss her recent book Shielded: How The Police Became Untouchable. Then, she's joined by Sam Mellins, senior reporter at New York Focus. to discuss New York Gov. Kathy Hochul's top judicial nominee, Judge Hector LaSalle, being struck down by the State Senate in Albany. First, Emma runs through updates on a second earthquake hitting Turkey and Syria, China's denial of any Russian allyship, the Israeli Knesset advancing Netanyahu's extreme abuses of the judicial branch, Buttigieg's delayed action in East Palestine, and Ron DeSantis launching his “Crime Tour,” before diving into Tucker Carlson's attempt to shift East Palestine discourse away from corporate cost-cutting and towards Joe Biden's “industrial sabotage.” Professor Joanna Schwartz then joins as she explores her focus on various untold stories of police brutality throughout the US, beginning with the story of Onree Norris, a 78-year-old victim of a wrong-address home invasion, to explore the complete lack of accountability faced by police departments nationwide when an incident doesn't make the 24-hour news cycle. Diving deeper into Onree Norris' story as she assesses the barrier of qualified immunity on his quest for justice, with prosecution requiring pre-existing judicial decisions surrounding the exact same circumstances – decisions that courts actively refuse to publish for this very reason – all serving to stifle any attempts to hold police, their departments, or their local government's accountable. Next, Professor Schwartz zooms out to look at the history of qualified immunity, beginning with the passage of the Klu Klux Klan Act in 1871 which sought to grant the right of trial and due process to the recently freed Black population when it came to addressing justice for constitutional violations by the state, only for the Supreme Court to respond immediately by making various decisions to undermine and stunt these developments as the US continued into the Jim Crow era. Moving into the second half of the 20th Century, Joanna and Emma explore the Supreme Court's decision to finally reverse this decision in 1968, then opening up lawsuits against local governments in '71, only to – once again – launch various decisions that undermined this right, opening up local governments to passing qualified immunity and other measures that protect them from accountability and hinder victims of police brutalities' quests for justice. Wrapping up the interview, they tackle the history and development of policing institutions in the US, coming out of the slave economy and settler-colonial structure of the early US, and discuss what policy measures can help bolster Americans' right to justice in the face of state abuses. Sam Mellins then joins as he walks through Kathy Hochul's failed nomination of Hector LaSalle to the Chief Judgeship of the NY Court of Appeals, why she embraced this loss so dearly, and where it leaves the future of this seat. And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Mason from Alabama on the relationship between gun-control legislation and policing reform, Donald Trump talks the “n-word” (Nuclear) and rags on DeSantis' crime tour, and the crew parses through Jimmy Dore's recent “anti-war” rally that featured promoters of the invasion of Afghanistan and Ukraine, and exemplified the untethering of Dore's anti-establishment schtick from the relationship between labor and capital.
