Part 1:We talk with John Nichols about the primary elections in Texas. We also discuss the elections in Maine. Part 2:We discuss “Race Class” with Johnathan Feingold. Ep. 65 | Why Fascists Fear Black Studies "Everyone committed to democracy, intellectual freedom, and the rule of law should be alarmed at what is happening--and be prepared to act." That call came from Professor Jafari Sinclaire Allen in a recent piece for The Nation that catalogued MAGA's ever-escalating assault on Black studies. Jon and Arnie use the piece as a jumping off point to discuss why home-grown authoritarians in Florida and Texas are leading the charge to purge Black studies and gender studies from our universities. The answer is simple: those who prefer domination over democracy fear an educated public that understands the source of their precarity and the path to freedom and liberation.    WNHNFM.ORG  productionMusic: "That's how every empire falls," John Prine

Bill Press talks with Editor and Publisher Katrina vanden Heuvel and Executive Editor John Nichols of The Nation about the magazine's editorial calling for the impeachment of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. They argue cabinet officers can and should be impeached, citing what they describe as Noem's repeated false public narratives about federal operations in Minneapolis, including the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and they call for independent investigations, accountability, economic restitution for impacted businesses, and dismantling ICE. They discuss impeachment as a political constitutional tool, the likelihood of House action versus Senate conviction, and parallel accountability via elections and congressional oversight. The conversation also covers The Nation's nomination of Minneapolis residents for the Nobel Peace Prize for their constitutional, mutual-aid-based resistance to masked federal agents, and notes leadership by Mayor Jacob Frey, Governor Tim Walz, and Attorney General Keith Ellison. In the second half, they broaden to U.S. policy in Latin America and the Caribbean, referencing The Nation's long history of covering Venezuela and opposing the Cuba embargo, Rep. Jim McGovern's resolution to lift the embargo, the rollback of the Obama opening, and a forthcoming profile of Marco Rubio, while arguing that empire abroad undermines democracy at home and that Trump's posture is better described as aggressive unilateralism.Today highlights the work of The Nation Magazine.

On Thursday's "Drivetime with DeRusha".... 3pm Hour: Jason talks with listeners - is it time to pass Voter ID? Then he talks with John Nichols, Executive Editor of "The Nation" about why they nominated the people of Minneapolis for a Nobel Peace Prize 4pm Hour: Jason wonders what listeners' #1 worry is right now? Then he talks with a pair of Minneapolis restaurant owners about how the ICE surge has impacted their business on DeRusha Eats. 5pm Hour: On The DeRush Hour Jason goes "In Depth" with St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her about newly passed ordinances limiting access to city property by ICE. Then he talks to a local resident about ICE repeatedly showing up at her residence despite there being no evidence the person they're looking for is there.

Jason talks with the Executive Editor of "The Nation" - John Nichols - about why the magazine chose to nominate the people of Minneapolis for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Thursday 3pm Hour: a majority of Americans think Voter ID is a good idea. Is it time to pass it already? Then Jason talks with John Nichols, the Executive Editor of "The Nation", a magazine who has nominated the people of Minneapolis for the Nobel Peace Prize. John explains their reasoning.

On today's show, host Allen Ruff is joined by friend of the program, John Nichols, who is on the ground reporting from Minneapolis. He says that ICE is sowing a great deal of chaos; restaurants are empty and the atmosphere is tense. However, thousands are showing up to daily demonstrations creating a remarkable moment of dissent.  They discuss Nichol's latest article, co-written with Nation editor Katrina vanden Heuvel, “The ‘Donroe’ Doctrine: Trump Unleashes the Dogs of War.” Nichols says that our contemporary struggles have deep roots in earlier moments of US imperialism. He calls the US's aggression in Venezuela an act of war, not simply a police action as it has been described. The fact that Congress has not been given a say in these actions, effectively makes Trump a king. Unlike Trump's first term in office, this time around he's very focused on international affairs, from kidnapping foreign leaders to threatening to bomb nations and more, says Nichols.  From Venezuela to Minneapolis, we're seeing invasion abroad and at home, says Nichols. He sees hope in the number of folks, especially young people, who are talking about and engaging in general strikes. More and more people are dissatisfied with the Democratic Party and are looking for ways to counter a political system that is infused with money. They also discuss war tax resistance, mutual aid groups, and the role of religious leaders in political movements. John Nichols is the executive editor of The Nation, and previously the magazine’s long-time national affairs correspondent. He is the author, coauthor, or editor of more than a dozen books on media, democracy, and American political history. His latest, cowritten with Senator Bernie Sanders, is the New York Times bestseller It’s OK to Be Angry About Capitalism.
