She holds teaching positions at Yale University's School of the Environment and The College of William & Mary.We discuss the push to drill and dig in the administration, when many of the minerals and metals we need are already available in the byproducts of existing mining an drilling, in addition to the resources available in discarded items. We talk about the amount of waste produced, and buried in land fills, when when it could be reprocessed and used.Part 2:We talk with Julie Su, a nationally recognized workers' rights and civil rights expert who served in President Biden's cabinet as the Acting Secretary of Labor where she successfully led efforts to build worker power and union strength, negotiate historic contracts, and expand good jobs for all. Prior to her nomination as U.S. Labor Secretary, she served as the Deputy Secretary, and before that as the California Labor Secretary appointed by Governor Gavin Newsom. Secretary Su brought a wealth of experience as a nonprofit attorney representing low wage, vulnerable workers for nearly two decades prior to being appointed to government positions and as California Labor Commissioner from 2011-2018, where she was widely credited with a renaissance in enforcement and creative approaches to combating wage theft and protecting immigrant workers. Secretary Su graduated from Stanford University and Harvard Law School. She speaks Mandarin and Spanish.We discuss the information skimming that the DOGE boys are doing. Different government agencies have data about US residents, most of it private. However DOGE is pushing for access to ALL data, by unauthorized individuals who are part of DOGE, with no controls or oversight. This data can be used in many ways to exploit in many ways detrimental to us. Music: David RovicsWNHNFM.ORG  production

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Ryan Grim, reporter at Drop Site News and co-host of Counter Points, to break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Israel's brutal assaults on Beirut and Gaza, the US' longshoremen strike, the US economy, Trump's attacks on legal migrants, student loan relief, the devastation of Hurricane Helene, and Eric Adams' legal woes, also watching Trump's pitch for his economic platform (it's just him bragging about ripping people off). Ryan Grim then joins, diving right into Israel's ongoing escalation and expansion of their military offensive, and the US' condonation of their brutal campaign as it now extends into Lebanon and potentially to Iran, stepping back to look at how the Biden Administration – and more particularly advisors Brett McGurk and Amos Hochstein –  have skirted around US military recommendations and intelligence to endorse Israel's pivot whole-heartedly. After expanding on the role of US oil reserves in potentially bolstering Biden's commitment to expanding Zionist bloodthirst, Ryan, Sam, and Emma unpack the strong continuity between the campaigns and administrations of Harris and Biden, first touching on inklings of a potentially devastating departure from Biden's labor personnel before walking through the role this coherence plays in influencing the Harris campaign's ongoing pivot to center-right voters. They also touch on the role of the growing labor movement in bolstering and challenging the Harris campaign and wrap up the show with a conversation on the conservative canvassing conundrum and the pointlessness of the VP Debate. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss the sentencing of former Colorado County Clerk Tina Peters over Trump's election scheme while no organizers of the scheme have been held accountable, and Kowalski from Nebraska gives me (the person writing this) a lovely compliment and unpacks some of JD Vance's industrial and manufacturing rhetoric from the debate. They also dive deep into the turnaround of the US economy and the boost it's giving to Harris' polling – with some helpful commentary from Laura Ingraham and Julie Su. Baddie from Cincinnati has some plans for Cincy's abandoned subway tunnels, Mike Lawler explains the nuances of Blackface, and JD Vance does some election denial. Neville from New Joisey helps to end the show with some good ol'-fashioned genocide-denial, plus, your calls and IMs!

  It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Adam Hanieh, development studies academic based in the UK, to discuss his recent book Crude Capitalism: Oil, Corporate Power, and the Making of the World Market. Then, she speaks with Greg Stoker, co-host of the Colonial Outcasts podcast, to discuss Israel's recent offensive into Lebanon. First, Emma runs through updates on the release of Jack Smith's new brief on Trump's Jan 6th case, Elon's secret funding of GOP PACs and candidates, Biden-Harris disaster response to Helene, climate change, Harris polling, Israel's expanding offensives in the Middle East, the devastation of Gazan families by Israel, Facebook's suppression, the Longshoremen strike, Jordan Neely's killer, and the presidency of Claudia Sheinbaum, before parsing a little deeper through Jack Smith's Jan 6th briefing, including his approach to SCOTUS' ridiculous immunity qualifiers and some extra insights into the day of January 6th itself. Adam Hanieh then joins, briefly touching on his lived experience in the Middle East before diving deep into the central role that the evolution of fossil fuels has played in shaping Western hegemony over the past century and a half, from the rise of coal directly fueling the growth of the British Empire, and well through the “transition” to oil (really more of an addition than transition) and the rise of US Empire. Expanding on this latter point, Hanieh walks Emma through the rise of the oil industry in the mid-20th Century as a product of monopoly, with near-complete vertical integration in an industry dominated by seven companies (five of which were American), also touching on the major role oil reserves in the Persian Gulf played in the evolution of the Cold War, as the US stepped in for dwindling British and French colonial power in the Middle East, establishing a strong alliance with the Saudi regime before Israel's success in the 1967 war added another major US proxy in the region, with even greater control over the Suez Canal – two relationships that remain central to US interests with the ongoing push for the Abraham Accords. After expanding on the role of the US in bolstering instability and insecurity in the region to secure their influence, Adam wraps up by unpacking the evolution of OPEC and its role as a supposedly decolonial institution headed by a major US-ally and authoritarian regime in Saudi Arabia. Greg Stoker and Emma tackle the rapid expansion of Israel's ongoing military campaign into a full-scale regional conflict, with Israel launching a full-scale terror campaign across Lebanon before advancing a typically collectively punitive bombing campaign against Hezbollah personnel, as well this week's Iran-launched barrage on Tel Aviv. Stoker continues, tackling the glaring parallels between Israel's ongoing invasion of Lebanon and their complete failure in the 2006 war, parsing through the difficulties Israel faces in constantly warring with decentralized guerrilla factions, and exploring Israel's potential responses to Iran's controlled assault. Wrapping up, Greg and Emma tackle the U.S' role as a behind-the-scenes broker between Iran and Israel, and assess the devastating impact Israel's bloodthirst has had on its economy. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they talk with Brendon from San Diego about Harris' attempt to appeal to the center-right, discuss Trump's recent invocations of William McKinley, and watch the Longshoreman Union President vocalize support for Julie Su and call out Fox News… all live on Fox.

Happy Labor Day!!! Department of Labor's Acting Secretary Julie Su reminds us that the Biden Administration has been focused on building what they call the “high road to the American dream”. That looking out for the American worker is not just about having enough work, it's about those workers being paid properly, treated with respect, and at the end of the day, giving our citizens what President Biden calls “a little breathing room” to live our lives. How do we “pursue happiness” without that? On this Labor Day we dig into the Department of Labor and all the programs and agencies ready and willing to help the American people that most of us don't even know about, and the importance of having a government that not only respects our workers but will fight for them.

Acting US Labor Secretary Julie Su discusses the Biden Administration's read on the strong jobs report with Bloomberg's Annmarie Hordern.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Biden administration has introduced a new rule that will extend overtime pay to nearly 4 million more salary workers in the U.S., surpassing previous measures. Under this rule, workers earning up to $58,656 annually will now qualify for overtime pay if they work over 40 hours weekly. The change is a significant jump from the current threshold of about $35,500 set by the previous administration. The acting secretary of Labor, Julie Su, stated that the move aims to ensure that workers are compensated fairly for working long hours. The salary threshold will further rise by January 2025 and will adjust every three years starting in 2027, reflecting wage growth. The expansion of overtime eligibility is part of the administration's effort to improve compensation for lower- and middle-income workers, although it has faced criticism from some business groups and is expected to encounter legal challenges.

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma speak with KJ Boyle, research assistant with The Revolving Door Project, to discuss his recent piece in The New Republic entitled "Donald Trump Is No Friend to the Working Class." Then, they speak with Prem Thakker, politics reporter at The Intercept, to discuss his recent reporting on the use of chemical weapons on pro-Palestine demonstrators at Columbia University. And THEN, they are joined by David Bedar, history teacher and member of the Newton Teacher's Association (NTA), to discuss the teacher's union ongoing strike efforts. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Donald Trump's New Hampshire win, US strikes on Yemen and Iraq, fracturing among the House and Senate GOP, mass layoffs, Sweden's NATO pitch, Ukraine's defensive, and US abortion travel bans, before parsing through Nikki Haley's response to her concrete loss in New Hampshire and Donald Trump's response to her. KJ Boyle then joins, diving right into his assessment of the incredible flourishing of the US labor movement under President Biden – particularly coming out of Donald Trump's administration – despite some pushback. Boyle tackles Donald Trump's very typical GOP approach to the labor wing of his administration, appointing CEOs and union-busting lawyers to the DOL and NLRB, before stepping back to assess Biden's appointments in Jennifer Abruzzo at the NLRB, and Julie Su as Secretary of Labor, and their importance in pushing us towards a return to the Joy Silk doctrine, and a re-establishment of US labor rights. Prem Thakker, next, walks Sam and Emma through Columbia University's long history of student activism and divestment campaigns, beyond and including Israel, before running through a briefer summary of the recent developments on Columbia's campus in the wake of October 7th, which have seen the disbanding of multiple pro-Palestinian student organizations and the rampant discrimination and harassment of Palestinian students and allies. Thakker wraps up with the recent attack on a Colombia protest by alleged Zionist students, and Colombia's refusal to address the incident without extreme pressure. David Bedar joins from the picket line in Newton, MA, as he walks through the basis for the NTA's strike in the city and the Mayor's complete mismanagement of the education sector, from underfunding and understaffing to poor pay and absurdly poor family policy, before wrapping up the show by walking through the incredibly important role of the Newton community and alumni network in standing with the Teachers' association, and what those of us outside of the community can do to help. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Jimmy Dore's new alchemical grift (it's just Silver Hawkery), Donald Trump shouts out Q in the year 2024 (and it works), and Nikki Haley's subdued performance among the best possible electorate for her. Barbara Lee kills her debate response to Adam Schiff over calls for a ceasefire, the MR Crew watches another Israeli dissident speak out against their country's failures and abuses, and Charlie Kirk downgrades his bigotry to purely speculative. Fox calls out the “media training” of the “Vice President” and the super mean statements by “snowflake” AOC, and the MR Crew walks through developments in the Child Tax Credit, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma host Rosie Collington, Ph.D candidate at University College London, to discuss her recent book The Big Con: How The Consulting Industry Weakens Our Businesses, Infantilizes Our Governments, And Warps Our Economies, co-authored with Mariana Mazzucato. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the debt ceiling fight, Biden's plummeting polling (and why he still fares better than the GOP's candidates), Minnesota's gig work bill, Manchin sinking Julie Su's candidacy, the NAACP travel advisory for Florida, the devastating death of an 8-year-old in border custody, and failing US intelligence at home and abroad, before diving into the Democratic party's (and particularly their leadership's) insistence on never having any real power. Rosie Collington then joins as she parses through the massive state of the management consulting industry in the US, with agencies like McKinsey, Boston Consulting Group, and Bain, working for both the regulatory (political) and industrial sides, and conning the public into believing they actually have a massive impact on the economy. She walks Sam and Emma through the evolution of the consulting-industrial complex, with the introduction of the Reaganomics of the 1980s in both reducing spending on welfare and shifting the distribution of it onto private industry, and the neoliberal establishment cementing this shift over the next couple of decades, with private companies slowly taking over not just the implementation, but the development of public policy in the US. After parsing through the rollout of the ACA under Obama, as well as stories like the East Palestine derailment and McKinsey's role in the opioid crisis, as key examples of the failure of consulting's control over the government, from the conflicts-of-interest in creates to the obscuration of responsibility for our democratic officials, Collington wraps up by tackling the role of elite institutions in laundering the reputation of consulting industries, and explores what actions the US government can take to protect democracy. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive into AI's role in the WGA and SAF strikes, with some help from Tesla stans, Moms for Liberty exemplifies the GOP's exterminationist rhetoric, and Hitchen's Ghost dives into his personal experiences with Killology experts. Ash from Southern Illinois reflects on the criminalization of a teacher's trans acceptance, Dez from NJ discusses unionizing his workplace, and Emma reflects on mistakes made in reporting on a recent “Karen” story. DeSantis continues to flounder socially, and Tim Pool acts in his role as the final body in the reactionary right's human centipede of (dis)information, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma host Amy Wilentz, Professor of Literary Journalism at the University of California Irvine and contributing editor at The Nation, to discuss her recent piece in The Nation entitled "Haiti, April 2023: Soon There Will Be No One Left to Kidnap." Then, they're joined by Djene Bajalan, professor of history at Missouri State University, to discuss the upcoming Turkish elections. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Kevin McCarthy's impending austerity bill, the nomination of Julie Su, John Roberts' ethics crisis, Fox's opposition file on Tucker,  and Bernie's Biden endorsement, before diving into a former Tucker producer's testimony on what's been coming out of Fox News. Professor Amy Wilentz then steps back to walk through the impact of the 2010 Haiti Earthquake in cementing the US-backed rule of Ariel Henry over a country with devastated infrastructure that was falling more and more into the hands of capitalists and gangs, before analyzing the complete neutering of Haiti's governmental forces, be they military or police, the connections between the cops and the criminals, and how these elements bolstered the rise of gangs and human trafficking in the country, leading to its current moment of intense upheaval. Wrapping up, Amy, Sam, and Emma explore what solutions are even viable, and why an election might only serve to reinforce the current moment of chaos. Djene Bajalan then dives into the nationalist discourse ahead of Turkey's election, before walking through the role this election plays in Erdogan's path to supreme power. After tackling the impact of the Turkey-Syria earthquake earlier this year and Erdogan's fascistic response, Sam, Emma, and Djene wrap up the interview by tracing the political movements that have existed alongside Erdogan's reign, and what to expect from their post-election check-in. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma cover the attacks on Kevin McCarthy's austerity from the right, the silencing of Zooey Zephyr on the Montana house floor, Candace responding to Crowder with infinitely more grit than he provided, and the importance of building new housing.  Cade from Washington dives into the importance of engaging local politics on an individual level, and Kyle from LA starts a long conversation on Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and the predication of violence, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma host Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Supreme Court's Mifepristone decision, far-right legislation coming out of North Carolina, Texas, and the US House, and Buzzfeed news closing shop. Digby then joins Sam and Emma as they dive into the conclusion of the Fox-Dominion lawsuit, the internal incompetence of Fox News, and the destructive force of Rupert Murdoch's empire, as well as Kevin McCarthy's lackluster debt ceiling hustle, and the uncertain standing of centrists like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema. They also discuss the cold war in the GOP primary, as DeSantis' floundering puts the GOP establishment in disarray, while Biden's announcement is still impending, with only Bobby Kennedy and Marianne Williamson likely to serve as imperfect messengers of the Left, and why a true progressive candidacy must be grounded in coalition building and union solidarity. Wrapping up, they discuss the upcoming generation of politicians, including the passion of the Justins in Tennessee, and the horrors of the Right's young guard. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive a little deeper into Texas passing a law requiring the 10 Commandments to be “prominently displayed” in classrooms, the resignation of the Vice Chair of Tennessee's House Republican Caucus over sexually harassing interns,  and the stalling nomination of Julie Su. They also parse through a few of DeSantis' defenders and betrayers, plus, your IMs!

  It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma host David Dayen, executive editor at the American Prospect to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Federal Reserve's continued battle against labor, DeSantis going full fascist with the Florida legislature, the House ethics investigation into George Santos, Norfolk Southern's cleanup in East Palestine, and Bari Weiss' support of bonkers anti-trans “reporting,” before parsing through Joe Biden's recent statements against the democratic right of the citizens of DC to be legislated by their elected officials. David Dayen then joins as he dives right into the move of Labor Sec. Marty Walsh to the Boston Bruins, the minimal void he leaves behind him, and what we can expect from Julie Su's assumption of his position, walking through the policy that will be on her Department of Labor's table, and their main job of sustaining the new workforce coming out of the CHIPs Act and the IRA. Next, David briefly walks Sam and Emma through ongoing discussions about Biden's new FAA appointment, before shifting the conversation to the battle between labor and monopoly coming to a head with an upcoming airline merger seeing a battle between JetBlue and Spirit unions, and the regulatory failures of the freight industry resulting in Norfolk Southern's chemical disaster in East Palestine. Wrapping up, David dives deeper into Norfolk Southern's PR “clean-up,” and tackles the rhetorical pinning of inflation on labor. And in the Fun Half: Emma and Sam discuss Fox tiptoeing around acknowledging their impending lawsuit with Dominion, Josh from New Jersey reflects on the Warren-Sanders split in the 2020 primary, and Ben from Long Island takes on the state of the job market. John from Southern Jersey talks about East Palestine, Tim Pool's dad speaks out about Tim's hypocrisy, and CPAC starts out exactly as stupidly as you'd expect.

Today's headlines: An expose by the New York Times is spotlighting underage migrant children as they're illegally employed to make products for well known brands in dangerous and underpaid jobs. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has unilaterally decided to provide Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson with exclusive access to 42-thousand hours of footage from the capitol on January 6th. President Biden announced yesterday that he plans to nominate Julie Su as the new Secretary of Labor. The Department of Energy briefed lawmakers on a classified intelligence report that the covid pandemic likely arose from an accidental leak at a laboratory in Wuhan. Finally for today, Canada has joined the US and EU in banning the app on government-issued phones due to data security and privacy concerns.  Resources/Articles mentioned this episode: NY Times: Alone and Exploited, Migrant Children Work Brutal Jobs Across the U.S. AP News: McCarthy defends giving Tucker Carlson Jan. 6 trove access Axios: Biden to nominate Julie Su to head Labor Department WSJ: Lab Leak Most Likely Origin of Covid-19 Pandemic, Energy Department Now Says Bloomberg: Canada Joins US and EU in Banning TikTok From Government Phones Host: Sami Sage Morning Announcements is produced by Sami Sage alongside Amanda Duberman and Bridget Schwartz Original Music and Editing by Brandon Lee Bjornson
