Casual Friday is finally upon us! Sam and Emma take in the spectacle that was State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce finding out in real time during a press briefing that National Security Adviser Tim Waltz had been re-assigned to be the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. while her boss Marco Rubio was replacing him. After that, Sam and Emma talk to Mehdi Hasan about Trump's first 100 days and all of the damage he and his administration have been able to do in that time. They reflect on how the administrations' assault particularly on immigrants, lead by Stephen Miller, has served as a horrifying spectacle meant in part to distract people from the harm that's also being done to the economy.   Check out more of Mehdi's analysis at Zeteo, which is about to turn one year old!: https://zeteo.com/ After that, Emma is joined by funnyman and birthday boy Matt Lieb. Together they take in some of the sad and consequential aspects of John Fetterman's mental health that have been reported on in a new piece by New York Magazine. Check out Matt's upcoming standup show next Wednesday at Cobbs in San Francisco: http://bit.ly/mattfrancobbs After that, Emma, Russ and Matt admire Ilhan Omar's handling of her interaction with Daily Caller "reporter" Myles Morell while effectively conveying the moral position on the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case and its implications. Also the Texas state house is busy debating a GOP-sponsored bill forbidding litter boxes from schools over a completely made up moral panic about furries.

We've made it to Friday folks. Krystal Ball will be here to break down the wild week that was. First, Sam and Emma discuss Donald Trump's memecoin dinner and the amount of money he's made since taking office just over a month ago. Then Krystal, Sam and Emma discuss the arrest of an immigration judge by the FBI in Wisconsin for allegedly protected an undocumented immigrant from federal authorities. The three discuss how this development plays into the direction the administration is heading on immigration and in general. The three try to decipher what Trump and his inner circle are thinking at this point about tariffs, after having ceded significantly from their initial plan. They also discuss what is on the horizon for the Democrats.

Slate Senior Writer Mark Joseph Stern joins to break down the latest news out of the Supreme Court and the upcoming SCOTUS docket. https://slate.com/author/mark-joseph-stern https://bsky.app/profile/mjsdc.bsky.social Sam and Emma on the latest developments in Trump's manufactured economic crisis before speaking to Mark Joseph Stern, Slate's senior writer covering the Supreme Court and co-host of the Amicus podcast. They cover critical Supreme Court rulings, including the stay on the reinstatement of federal workers fired by the Trump administration and the alarming decision regarding the Alien Enemies Act used to deport Venezuelan migrants without due process. They also delve into the upcoming Supreme Court case Kerr v. Planned Parenthood, which could drastically alter Medicaid and the court's ongoing assault on the Voting Rights Act with the case of Louisiana v. Callais.

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with 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 Trump's cuts to the Social Security Administration, Musk's attacks on NOAA, the devastating effect of Trump's gutting of USAID, FEMA's struggles, Bird Flu, the Pentagon's trans ban, Trump's tariffs, and MAGA confusion about Trump releasing an edited Epstein file, before expanding on the GOP's ongoing attacks on Medicaid and Social Security, highlighted by the obvious attempt to revamp the demonization of people who receive government benefits. Digby then joins, jumping right into the genuinely astonishing divide between federal and state-level Democrats' ability to function as an opposition party, with Democrats in New York, California, and the Midwest embarrassing national leadership when it comes to preparing (or caring) to fight the Trump administration. Parton, Sam, and Emma also reflect on the coalescing of Big Tech and the Heritage Foundation, dissect some of Elon Musk's deeper desires for collecting Americans' data, and assess the chokehold the Musk-Trump regime has on the rest of the Republican Party – from the threat of a primary to the active disregard of their voters' wishes. After touching once more on the impotence of national Democratic leadership (Hakeem Jeffries) in contrast with state-level leaders (Governor Walz), Digby and MR wrap up by diving deep into Trump's insane authoritarian confrontation with Ukraine President Zelenskyy during a live press conference today. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Kaitlan Collins stump Mike Johnson with confusing questions about “budgets” and “resolutions,” and cringe as Piers Morgan goes out of his way to rain shimmering showers of praise on Elon Musk (while just happening to defend his own wealth along the way), plus, your IMs!

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Ryan Grim, reporter at and co-founder of Drop Site News, co-host of Counter Points, to round up the week in news. Sam and Emma run through updates on Elon Musk's takeover of the US Treasury, Paramount's multi-million dollar payoff to Trump, Trump's attempt to blame a recent plane crash on desegregation, Trump's impending tariffs, the confirmation hearings for RFK, Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, Russ Vought, and Doug Bergum, tax cuts for the wealthy, Trump's gutting of the FBI's Cyber investigation department, and the FCC's targeting of PBS and NPR, before expanding on the Trump Administration's failures in the lead-up to, and response to the recent aviation crash outside of Reagan Airport in DC. Ryan Grim then joins, briefly touching on some of the major reporting coming out of Drop Site News over the last few months – including a major report on Israel's US of an AI-weapons system to target Hamas leadership when home with their family – before he, Sam, and Emma dive deep into the recent hostile takeover by Elon Musk at the US Treasury, with the Treasury's place signing the checks that keep our government working central to Elon's first-order goals of personal enrichment and gutting the government – with the former particularly influential for an individual who makes most of his money off of federal contracts. After expanding on the latter with the Trump Administration's ongoing campaign to “traumatize” (per OMB head Russ Vought) federal workers, and the ultimate goal of the Administration to shift into an era of corporate governance, Ryan, Sam, and Emma look to the Trump Administration's attacks on DEI and DEIA, with Ryan addressing some of his recent comments on the failure of DEI to actually address issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion beyond shielding corporations from responsibility, before wrapping up the free half by touching on the threat of Trump's impending tariffs. And in the Fun Half: First, Sam and Emma unpack the Trump Administration's predictably insane and destructive response to the recent plane crash out of DC and plead with Democratic leadership to follow Gov. Pritzker's lead and act like an actual opposition party. They also dive deep into the embarrassing lack of knowledge about Medicare and Medicaid that RFK puts on display in his confirmation hearing for HHS director and the GOP's continuing attacks on Social Security, before watching Stephen Crowder stumble through self-incrimination at his defamation deposition, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with 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 affirmation of the TikTok ban, Biden and Trump's following denunciations of said ban, Israel's ceasefire sabotage, Trump's cabinet nominees, medicare drug price negotiations, and Mike Johnson's enforcement of the Trump regime, before watching Bernie push Trump treasury pick Bessent on why he doesn't think working people deserve fair wages. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the devastating wildfires continuing to ravage LA, and the right's immediate push to politicize the event for all of their culture war BS, targeting Newsome, Bass, and DEI, before shifting to the greater absurdity of blaming people for failing to deal with an issue (climate change) that you refuse even to acknowledge. Expanding on this latter element, Digby tackles how LA is already being set up for Big Tech disaster capitalists to swoop in, diving deep into the setup of Trump's uber-oligarchy, what Big Tech wants from the relationship, and what makes them distinct from both contemporary and historical oligarch comparisons, wrapping up the show by waxing on the horrors of a Polymarket populist future. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma take some highlights from the hearings for Trump's Administrative nominees, including Bessent's abject fear of taxing the wealthy, Russell Vought's attempt to shirk the “has repeatedly fantasized about terrorizing bureaucratic agents” accusations, and Hegseth's utter embarrassment in the face of Elizabeth Warren. They also unpack right-wing reactionaries' attempt to pin California's forest fires on those damn meth-smoking homeless people in urban Los Angeles, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Osita Nwanevu, contributing editor at the New Republic, columnist at The Guardian, and author of the upcoming book The Right of the People: Democracy and the Case for a New American Founding.  First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump's felon status, California's wildfire crisis, the growing global climate crisis, Meta's new speech regulations, Gaza's still-growing death toll and the likely extent of its undercount, the House's bill to sanction the ICC, the Senate's bill to deport unconvicted migrants, the death of Anita Bryant, the death of the Chevron Doctrine, and TikTok's case at the Supreme Court, before diving a little deeper into the unparalleled dangers of climate change as seen in the wildfires rampaging around LA. Osita Nwanevu then joins, jumping right into the late developments of Trump's myriad legal woes over this last year, and the overwhelming feeling that our next president will be completely unaccountable while feeling completely untouchable, also touching on the genuine recognition of Trump as a problematic felon by the public, and why that simply didn't matter when it came to their open-faced rejection of the Democratic Party's institutionalist centrism. Expanding on this latter element, Nwanevu, Sam, and Emma walk through the Democrats' inability to act as a capable opposition party, never presenting any semblance of an alternative when it comes to rhetoric and policy around the GOP's key issues (immigration) or their own (healthcare), and often preferring to jump on board with the right in the hopes that it will legitimize their role in politics. Dissecting even deeper, Osita explores the dearth of any party identity around vague institutionalist careerism, failing to manifest any changes to their image in the decade since Trump's threat arose, and often refusing to fund any wings of the party that challenge its floundering status quo, before shifting to the importance of the world of labor in pushing for that alternative image of progressivism, with unions – the core of labor – providing political education, communication, and socialization for their workers, with the institutional power to push political parties around. Wrapping up, Nwanevu explores the importance of revitalizing spaces for building and exerting worker power, be they unions or other forms of democratized workplace, and how we can help make that happen. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Fox's “The Five” channel what funerals are really about (shaming Hillary Clinton), touch on the death of Anita Bryant, and talk with Steve from KC about his experience working with One America News. Molly from Brooklyn extends an invite to WikiCon, Kelcie from Austin unpacks conservatism's hypocrisies, and Mel Gibson – noted bigot, freak, and conspiracy theorist – tells Joe Rogan about his cure for cancer. Smokey the Bear from Texas tackles the vulture capitalism around the California Wildfires, and Bill Maher accidentally admits that Trans rights are Civil Rights, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam & Emma speak with Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to discuss the upcoming stories to watch in 2025. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the House vote over the GOP Speakership, Trump's transition team, Biden's blocking of the Nippon Steel's takeover of US Steel, GOP judges killing Net Neutrality, the identities behind the attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas, California captive audience ban, Bird Flu, SEIU action, and Social Security retirement age requirements, before expanding on today's big Speakership vote as Mike Johnson begins to feel the heat. Jeet Heer then joins, diving right into today's ongoing fight over the Speakership, unpacking why, despite all the groveling, the GOP is likely to stand firm in line, just as they do with Trump. Next, Heer, Sam, and Emma parse thoroughly through the OTHER ongoing fight amid the GOP over the validity of H-1B Visas, a work visa for immigrants that puts their rights and wellbeing entirely in the hands of the corporation that employs them, unpacking the pro-H-1B (let's exploit immigrants) and anti-H-1B (no, we hate immigrants!) arguments on the right, before diving deeper into a genuine leftist critique of how these visa's work to lower rights for both workers and immigrants writ large, and the right's desire to use them as a part of their Social Darwinist vision. Jeet also expands on the failing tactic among progressive Democrats to work within the DNC power structure, tackling the potential for a new progressive movement to build up power in the House and Senate outside of the party infrastructure, and the growing possibility of said movement as we enter an era of seemingly anti-system electorate, also responding to some pushback about the mutual-exclusion of being a party outsider while still working with the party, before wrapping up with a brief conversation on Jordan Peterson, Pierre Poilievre, and the state of Canadian politics. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma parse through the ongoing discourse from the GOP over H-B1 visas, as the embrace of the exploitation of immigrants comes in conflict with the rejection of those immigrants themselves, with Charlie Kirk's crew helping to add some “DEI” dog-whistling into the mix. They also watch Mike Johnson sulk his way out of Congress until his ultimate victory in the speakership vote, and Sam walks the audience through the absurdities of Social Security's income cap, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Michelle Phelps, professor of sociology at the University of Minnesota, to discuss her recent book The Minneapolis Reckoning: Race, Violence, and the Politics of Policing in America. Then she speaks with Gabriel Hetland, associate professor of Latin American, Caribbean & Latino studies at SUNY Albany, to discuss his recent piece on the Build Public Renewables Act (BPRA) published in The Nation entitled "This Solar Panel Kills Fascists." First, Emma runs through updates on Biden's lame duck action, AOC's bid for Dem lead on Congressional oversight, Meta's Trump donation, Fetterman's support for Trump's cabinet, Manchin-Sinema hand the NLRB to Trump, Trump's ICE reform, the Albertsons-Kroger lawsuit, LA's new minimum wage policy, the NYT Tech Guild, and the UK's puberty blocker ban, also watching Joy Reid and Elizabeth Warren unpack the dangers of the GOP's attack on the CFPB. Professor Michelle Phelps then joins, diving right into the start of her research on Minneapolis' relationship with policing at the first peak of the Black Lives Matter movement in 2016, originally wrapping up in 2019 before the murder of George Floyd – and the global (and Minneapolis-based) abolitionist movement that followed – brought this topic back to the fore of her research, as she unpacks the direct correlation between communities being at heightened risk of police violence also being the ones most at risk of the community violence said police are supposed to prevent, creating a complicated relationship between being the community most in need of public safety reform AND the community most in need of public safety systems writ large. As she walks through Minneapolis' reaction and overwhelming abolitionist organizing effort in response to the murder of George Floyd, Professor Phelps explores the amorphous relationship between police and crime, and the relationship race and poverty have to both, which puts marginalized communities in such a tight bind when it comes to mitigating all violence, and the ultimate need to rethink where to investment to most benefit public safety. Expanding on the story in Minneapolis, Michelle and Emma unpack the evolution of the political establishment pushback to the abolitionist movement, tackling the relationship between Mayor Frye and the Minneapolis Police Department and the economic incentive of being an entertainment destination for suburbanites, before wrapping up with the ultimate sentencing of killer Cop Derek Chauvin and the minimal reciprocity it provided. Professor Gabriel Hetland then walks Emma through the genuinely incredible “New York State Build Public Renewables Act,” unpacking its plan for a green energy transition and the creation and maintenance of a robust clean energy grid bolstered by union labor, an investment in low and moderate-income workers, and an emphasis on public input and ownership. Expanding on this, Professor Hetland tackles New York's growing problem of skyrocketing energy costs and the fundamental fact of renewable energy's lack of profitability, wrapping up by emphasizing the importance of a shift away from private- and profit-driven energy systems. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Matt Binder as they watch Jesse Watters gleefully call for the abuse of UnitedHealth CEO killer Luigi Mangione, Jake from Dallas calls in to discuss Texas education, and Tyler from Cleveland tackles divesting from Israel. They also reflect on an incredibly inspirational congressional tenure from Cori Bush and the danger of letting right-wing money invade Democratic primaries, Ben Shapiro goes to war with his audience over the Healthcare CEO killer and Bill Burr, and Andrew Ferguson's dangerous blueprint for his FTC chairmanship comes out – and gives important insight into what “right-wing populism” actually entails.

It's News Day Tuesday! Emma speaks with Gregory Brew, analyst with the Eurasia Group's Energy, Climate, & Resources Team, to discuss the fluid situation in Syria now that rebels have taken control of Damascus. Then, she speaks with Thomas Birmingham, reporter and intern at The Nation based in New Haven, to discuss his recent piece entitled "In the US, Tenants Are Usually on Their Own. Can a New National Tenant Union Change That?." First, Emma runs through updates on the charging of the United Healthcare CEO killer, Pete Hegseth's nomination, Lara Trump's future in politics, Pete Buttigieg's potential governor run in Michigan, Tulsi Gabbard's nomination, Bibi Netanyahu's corruption case, Ukraine's defense, Democratic leadership, Boeing layoffs, and wildfires in Malibu, before touching on developing succession drama in the Murdoch family and the right-wing media's response to the killing of United Healthcare's CEO. Gregory Brew then joins, first providing the context of the deep domestic unpopularity of Assad's late Russia- and Iran-backed regime, then diving deep into the filling of the vacuum in the wake of his departure, with Hayat Tahrir al-Sham – the Islamist militant rebel group that just deposed of Assad's regime – still in control in Damascus while Kurds in the east continue to fight a Syrian National Army backed by an anti-Kurdish Turkey, all coinciding with US pressure against a potential ISIS resurgence. Next, Brew looks to the biggest winners and losers outside of Syria, with the collapse of the Assad regime dramatically decreasing Iranian and Russian influence in the region – with the former not seeming too displeased amid an already-crumbling relationship with Assad – while substantially raising the status of the likes of Israel. Thomas Birmingham then joins, jumping right into the major success of Bozeman Tenants United – the Montana city's tenant's union – and their role in an ongoing attempt to organize the National Tenant Union Federation, alongside tenant unions in Chicago, Kansas City Louisville, and Connecticut, with those in Kentucky and Montana providing a particularly valuable blueprint for successful progressive, working-class organizing in deep-red states. Expanding on the work Bozeman Tenants United engages in, Birmingham walks through the story of Ozaa Echo Maker as an example of how these organizing efforts work to bring marginalized and politically uninvolved people into politics, providing them a voice and showcasing genuinely democratic models of leadership, also touching on the extensive work BTU does locally, from pushing for tenant property ownership to building their electoral power and representation on city council, to defend renters' contract rights. Wrapping up, Thomas and Emma discuss Biden's role in pushing back against corporate landlords at the tail-end of his tenure and the importance of showcasing proper tenant power as this fight continues. And in the Fun Half: Emma and the MR Team talk with Jason from DC about the fallacy of bringing a populist right out of the Trump Administration, Lindsay Graham vocalizes his support for Tulsi Gabbard, and the crew unpacks developments in the arrest United Healthcare CEO's killer – with some help addressing the “death of a villain” narrative around this story from Ava in Miami. They also watch Ben Wikler's appearance on the Daily Show, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma host Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Elon's 6-digit spending spree for Trump, Pete Hegseth's nomination, US healthcare, Trump's expanding cabinet of billionaires, the blocked release of the Gaetz ethics report, job growth leading into Trump 2.0, Russia's use of civilians for target practice, stalling Tesla sales, Israel's most recent slaughtering of a humanitarian zone, and affirmative action in the US, before expanding on the coverage around the killing of United Healthcare's CEO. Jeet Heer then joins, as he, Sam, and Emma dive right into the topic of Trump's anti-establishment appeal, unpacking how his cabal of criminals – albeit largely wealthy and establishment-friendly ones – can capitalize on overwhelming disillusionment toward and rejection of US political institutions by at least providing SOME cathartic bucking of the system. Expanding on this, they parse through the particular role of the Democratic Party and its leadership, presenting Trump as an aberration from the deeply unpopular norms and establishment that guide US politics, while reiterating and centering their commitment to said establishment and norms, wrapping up with how these issues were drastically exacerbated by Joe Biden's decision to run for reelection. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack the attempt to spin Pete Hegseth as the “new” Donald Trump, tackle the gerontocratic decline of the Democratic Party, and watch Bill Clinton shame Palestinians for not happily embracing Israeli expansion. Hasan goes tweed, Russell Brand takes pity on the women he's exploited, and Matt Walsh gets wildly outshined by a 12-year-old trans girl speaking to the masses outside of the Supreme Court.

It's Casual Friday! Sam speaks with Astead Herndon, national politics reporter at the New York Times and host of "The Run-Up" podcast, to break down a crazy first week post-election.  First, Sam runs through updates on the developing picture of Trump's cabinet, the Stop Terror Financing Act, and CFPB and NLRB action, also touching on establishment responses to RFK's nomination as HHS secretary and his dangerous take on vaccines. Astead Herndon then joins, diving right into the prevalent narrative of two deeply unpopular nominees that dominated the 2024 US presidential election, and why, in refusing to acknowledge their sides' unpopularity (specifically when it came to the Biden Administration), Democrats and Harris completely failed to address the question of change in the eyes of the voters. Expanding on this, Herndon walks through the evolution of this overwhelming backlash to the Biden Administration, in particular, with his shocking decision to run for reelection in the wake of the 2022 midterms, committing the party to a vision of status-quo that voters had (visibly) been growing less and less content with, and gutting any opportunity – via primary or otherwise – to present or shape a new vision for what Democrats, and the Democratic nominee, were fighting for. After diving a little deeper into his research on the undecided, swing state voters that decided this election and making clear the obvious paths Democrats had to win them over, Astead and Sam explore another level of failed messaging on the part of the Democratic party, with rhetoric seeking to separate Trump from his GOP colleagues alongside ceding ground on the issues of crime and immigration allowed Trump to untether himself from the critiques of the former while claiming victory over the latter. Wrapping up, they tackle the particular arrogance that pushed the Democratic Party to ignore the myriad, obvious signs that a Biden-associated candidacy would be a non-starter for voters, and why they need to go back to the table and work on actually addressing voters' concerns. And in the Fun Half: Sam dives a little deeper into some potential impacts of an RFK-led world of public health, watches Donald Trump grapple with the other-worldly annoyance that is Elon Musk, and listens to GOP Senators explain why Matt Gaetz just deserves a chance. Vivek Ramaswamy – unelected bureaucrat – rails against unelected bureaucrats, Mike Huckabee waxes about his commitment to Israel, and the MR Team discusses an already-beginning inversion of US public opinion by party. Sam has a message for the aliens, Leftist Big Pharma Plug gives some insights into insider feelings about a potential Trump/RFK-led world of public health, and Eric Weinstein has – get this – a batsh*t conspiracy, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Mehdi Hasan, founder, CEO, and editor-in-chief of Zeteo, to discuss all of the developments since Tuesday's election. First, Emma runs through updates on the Harris-Walz campaign's overperformance in battleground states, PA Dems' maintenance of the State House majority, the ongoing battle for the US House, the Trump Administration, preparations for Trump's mass deportations, the GOP's anti-abortion tact, Israel's advancing genocide, and rising world food prices, also diving a little deeper into swing-state election results and watching Karine Jean-Pierre throw Harris under the bus in the face of potential criticism of Biden. Mehdi Hasan then joins, first touching on the already-advancing relationship between the Trump and Netanyahu administrations as Israel prepares an annexation of Northern Gaza, before shifting back to the still-developing numbers from Tuesday's blowout win by Trump and the GOP, looking at Trump's wins among minority voters (particularly Latin men), and unpacking why his vision was able to appeal to groups he actively seeks to discriminate against. After expanding on the major role misogyny and racism played in grounding Trump's campaign against Harris, Hasan and Emma parse through the divide between blaming the campaign and blaming the voters, discussing the complete gap in perception and reality around border crossings, crime, and inflation and the failure of messaging behind, before wrapping up the interview with what Democrats have to change about the way they do politics. Emma also touches on a note on fighting fascism from a French Leftist. And in the Fun Half: Emma and Matt unpack the role of misogyny in the overwhelming victory by Trump and the GOP, Jack from Florida tackles Trump and America's love for money, and Alex in Phoenix explores what happened to the coalition built around Bernie Sanders' campaign. The MR Team also touches on the continued scapegoating of minorities in the wake of Trump's victory, some typically horrific election analyses from Bari Weiss and Tom Suozzi, and Lula da Silva's plea to Trump over climate change. Thomas from Richmond discusses the future of DSA, and Jen Psaki has an astonishingly valid revelation about Democrats, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Hump Day! Emma speaks with Ettingermentum of the "Ettingermentum Newsletter" on SubStack to discuss the results of the 2024 election. First, Emma runs through the big updates on Trump's victory in the Presidential election, the GOP's taking of the Senate (and likely keeping the House), exit polls, the success and failure of various abortion referendums, and California's tough-on-crime referendum, before expanding on their personal reflections on the GOP's overwhelming victory yesterday. Ettingermentum then joins, as he and Emma where their polling predictions went wrong, also unpacking why Dems learned all of the wrong lessons from their success in the 2022 midterms – particularly in terms of interpreting it as an explicit endorsement of the Biden Administration – and the complete failure of Democrats and Kamala Harris to set forth an alternative vision to the GOP's demagogic fascism and Biden's lethargic liberalism. After briefly touching on the legitimacy of the “Shy” Trump voter, and parsing through the lessons on campaign ground game,  Josh and Emma look at the parallels between Obama and Trump's victories – particularly in terms of turning out disengaged voters – and dive deep into what the future of the progressive project will look like under Trump. And in the Fun Half: After expanding on the Right's sweeping victory in yesterday's elections, Emma and the MR Team talk with Kimmy from Kentucky about moving forward as a red-state single mother and the importance of community organizing – both materially and spiritually – and Ronald Raygun shares his reflections on Trump's victory. They also unpack the “lessons” that could be learned, Valerie from Arizona shares some personal messages and a hypothesis, and Blake from Nashville tackles party politics. Ben from Columbus explores Bernie Moreno's victory over Sherrod Brown, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter just one day out from the 2024 election. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on final-day swing state polling, the lingering impact of Trump's fascist rally at MSG, the electoral drag of Harris' support for genocide, RFK's fluoride attack, Israel's banning of UNRWA and enforced starvation in Gaza, and the NYT Tech Guild strike, before touching on Trump's ongoing deterioration and Mike Johnson's wild slip-up over the CHIPs Act. Dave Weigel then joins, diving right into the major Selzer poll out of Iowa, what it shows us regarding Harris' overwhelming support from women, and what this poll (and others) can tell us about the success of Harris' voter outreach across swing states. Weigel, Sam, and Emma also parse through the numbers behind early voting, why Democrats aren't particularly pressed about them, and the evolving constituency of independent voters, before touching on the GOP's GOTV fiasco – led by Elon Musk and Charlie Kirk. After briefly reflecting on the lingering impact of Trump's Bund rally at MSG, they get into a preview of the Senate fight, what the best/worst case scenarios are for Dems and Republicans across the Presidency, House, and Senate, and what particular races might act as bellwethers for the greater election. Sam also highlights a John Oliver segment on Georgia Rep. Ruwa Romman's comments on voting for Harris. And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Greg from Massachusetts about down-ballot voting and the secret men for Harris vote, dives deep into the context for and meaning behind Selzer's Iowa poll (with some added commentary from Trump and, later on, Jeff from Iowa), and Tim from Chicago asks about the election night timeline. Tucker reflects on wrestling with his demons (and losing), RFK Jr. sets his sights on fluoride, and Steve Doocy can't quite put his finger on why women don't like Trump, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma hosts Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news just 4 days out from the 2024 Election. First, Emma runs through updates on early voting numbers, swing state polling, SCOTUS taking up Pennsylvania's ballot case, Trump's visit to Dearborn, TPUSA's voting drives, Israel's ongoing slaughter in Gaza and destruction of Lebanon, the Boeing machinists' labor push, Texan fascism, and the devastating flash floods in Spain, before watching Hannity and Newt Gingrich happily join the “affirming women's fears about conservative men” party. Jeet Heer then joins, here, at the end of all things, as he and Emma dive deep into the contradicting trends around the incoming US presidential election, first tackling Harris' major gap among undecided voters due to her implicit support for Biden's genocide in Gaza (as well as the greater insistence by the Democratic party to cede ground on anti-imperialism), before shifting to the ongoing war on “gender” grounds, with Trump attempting to court young white male voters with his fascist paternalism, including some odd outreach to the elite gay white man constituency. Wrapping up, Jeet and Emma parse through the potentials as they assess the future of the progressive fight under either a Trump or a Harris presidency. And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Charles from Nashville about his father's consumption of conservative media, unpacks the constant pervasion of Israel's apartheid onto its Israeli Jewish population, and discusses the Green Party's questionable stances with Ethan from Washington. Joe Rogan sees Islam as the biggest threat to the US democracy, Trump-Epstein leaks come out, and Kowalski from Nebraska chats about his final harvest and the state of Nebraskan politics. Ramaswamay gets a lesson in taking out the trash, Charlie Kirk has some thoughts about women who dare undermine their husbands, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. But first, they speak with Anna Heetman, striking tenant and leader with the Independence Towers Tenant Union in Kansas City. First, Sam runs through updates on US election polling, Israel and the Biden Administration, Israel's potential attack on Iran, student loans, fake reviews, labor action with Kaiser healthcare workers, medical abortion statistics, and Trump's newest legal woe before watching Owen Shroyer demonstrate the right's new tact toward young men: trying to make women seem hysterical for caring about their rights. Sam also touches on some data around the public perception of the Harris and Trump campaigns, the importance of Harris' major social policy announcements, and the growing role of Gaza in certain swing states. Anna Heetman then joins, diving right into an outline of the ongoing fight from the Independence Tower and Quality Hill Towers tenant unions against the (ongoing) malpractice in the management, ownership, sale, and maintenance of their buildings, tackling the extensive membership of these tenant unions within the context of these towers, and walking through the laundry list of safety, security, health, and well-being concerns that has pervaded life in these complexes over the tenure of multiple owners. After briefly expanding on the chaos particularly brought on by the exploitative ownership of Parker Webb and FTW Investments, Heetman walks Sam through the major purpose behind this intensive organizing effort and rent strike, beyond even the more obvious material needs of tenants, exploring how this fight has highlighted the needs for greater regulation of federally-backed loans for property purchases, and rent control. Wrapping up the free half, Sam covers Trump's dropping poll numbers among his key demographics. And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks the meeting all young male voters have been waiting for (Jesse Watters and Hulk Hogan), talks with Sam from Nashville and Bullprog from Minnesota, respectively, about (among other things) the wild zionist attacks on Hasan Piker, and watches Ben Shapiro show off his genocidal mania. Kowalski from Nebraska has some choice words about the “fruits” on the East Coast before unpacking major food insecurity crises in Sudan and Lebanon, John from San Antonio parses through the polls now ~13.5 days out from the election, and Eric Trump starts the war on Christmas before Halloween has even hit. Donald Trump waxes psychotic about Bobby Kennedy, and a bullet hole is revealed in Tim Sheehy's supposed war wound story, plus your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Joining us is Heather "Digby" Parton from the blog Hullabaloo. Also, H Jon Benjamin, aka the Jazz Daredevil, joins us to talk about his new soundtrack project and his live show in New Jersey. See the Jazz Daredevil in New Jersey here: https://www.subpop.com/artists/jon_benjamin_jazz_daredevil/tours First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Harris-Walz blue wall press, Trump's interview dropouts, Israel's killing of Yahya Sinwar and ongoing assaults on Gaza and Lebanon, early voting in the US, death and justice in Texas and Tennessee, Secret Services' systemic failures, and an unseemly $30m drop in the polymarket bucket, also parsing through Trump's confusingly bad appearance on Fox and Friends, leaving hosts stunned over his nonsensical ramblings about attack ads and education. Diby then joins, as she helps Sam and Emma unpack Trump's struggles at the most sycophantic of town halls with Univision, as he continues to get in his own way with his lies about January 6th and obsession with anti-immigrant fear-mongering. They also dive into early voting turnout trends, with massive numbers out of swing states highlighted by a particular gender gap favoring Democrat-voting women, and explore what that says about the GOP's low-propensity push, before shifting into an extensive conversation on the Trump campaign's preemptive attacks on election integrity, and what an attempt to steal the election with real political infrastructure behind it could look like. H. Jon. Benjamin. then helps to explore the relationship between luck and success, and why random and annoying DOES, in fact, = funny.   And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack Jerry Seinfeld's wildly reactionary relationship to comedy, watch Elon Musk make even the most sycophantic audience look awkward, and listen to Donald Trump struggle to tie together some frayed conspiratorial strings about “King of the Woke” Harvey Weinstein, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Newsday Tuesday! Sam and Emma are back from the long weekend to break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on the final three weeks of the election cycle, Israel's continuing war crimes and genocide, Blinken's supposed demands for Israel, Trump's string of unhinged campaign fiascos, Harris' outreach to conservatives, Senate polling, India's extralegal murder campaign in Canada, and FEMA response, before parsing through JD Vance's continued inability to answer a question (even poorly!) about the validity of the 2020 election results. Next, they dive deeper into the genuine insanity of Trump's recent mishaps on the campaign trail, exploring the horrid conditions of his venues, his recent decision to dance (?) instead of taking questions with Kristi Noem (as planned), and his stranding of supporters *FOR HOURS* after cutting short of an event outside of Coachella. They also watch Trump's attempt to defend his wildly unpopular tariff platform to Maria Bartiromo before diving deep into his militant ideas for dealing with the “threat” of the “people from within” that is American leftists and listening to Glenn Youngkin struggle to make those statements out to be anything other than the pure, unfettered fascism that they are. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma's budding tensions with caller John from San Antonio grow as he unpacks his takes on polling info and the state of the Harris campaign, Russell Brand takes on those damn evil energies produced by Wifi or something, and Nancy Pelosi once again asks the Dem base not to believe their lying eyes as she attempts to preemptively shirk blame for a loss onto voters. Ronald Raygun discusses the genuine problem of Democrats' (and Harris') decision to let the right define the discourse around immigration and crime, Mopin from West Virginia asks about non-mainstream media coverage of Israel's genocide in Gaza, and a listener from SF explores the non-moral arguments against US support for Israel's genocide.

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter, to discuss the biggest headlines of the week. Then, she speaks with comedian Francesca Fiorentini, host of the Bitchuation Room! First, Emma runs through updates on Israel's bombing of dense residential areas of Beirut and continuing war crimes at home and in Gaza, Harris' attempt to court Latino voters, Obama's attempt to court young black men, Trump's legal woes, Florida's power issues, voter registration in Florida and Georgia, Boeing's anti-labor action, and TD Bank's record-breaking money laundering fine, before parsing a little deeper into Trump decision to shit on the biggest city in a major swing state over… NATO tax rates? Dave Weigel then joins, diving right into the state of the US presidential race in major swing states like Arizona, highlighting Harris' recent pivot away from emphasizing a populist agenda towards vague bipartisan grandstanding with the few anti-Trump Republicans left while unpacking the positives (and negatives) of this approach electorally. Expanding on this, Dave and Emma parse through the polling numbers on high- and low-/mid-propensity voters – touching on Trump's particular ability to turn out that ladder group – and why Harris' strong numbers with newly registered voters is a major plus, before turning to the comparisons between the Dem's 2024 campaign and those in 2012 and 2016, and why the former – thankfully – might be the more accurate one. After touching on the evolution of Harris' messaging game post-convention, Weigel dives deep into the GOP's own insane choices for their messaging campaign – including a reliance on the ever-inconsistent Elon Musk and Turning Points – and what to make of their ongoing push for an anti-trans agenda despite its lack of electoral salience in the past, wrapping up the interview by assessing the dearth of a direct response to Republican narratives on crime, immigration, and trans rights, and what that vacuum in the Democratic messaging campaign might mean come November. And in the Fun Half: Emma and Bradley watch Jesse Watters put on an enchanting display of toxic masculinity with Stephen Miller, dive a little deeper into the absurdity of the Trump messaging campaign (with some help from JD Vance), and highlight the continued strength of Greta Thunberg's unapologetic anti-colonial activism.

It's Hump Day! And Sam is live from the Mass Torts Conference in Las Vegas! First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the build of Hurricane Milton as it approaches Florida, Harris' campaign for the right, Biden's commitment to Israel, DOJ vs. Google, Trump's blocking of a Kavanaugh FBI investigation, abortion bans, Boeing machinist's ongoing labor action, Elons cucking to Lula, the ever-crumbling Eric Adams Administration, and the GOP's mass investment in anti-trans attacks, before parsing a little more thoroughly through the impending threat of Hurricane Milton. After touching on the important distinction between mass torts and class action lawsuits, Sam is joined by Attorney Kim Adams with Levin Pappantonio to discuss her ongoing litigation against the Canadian porn company formerly known as MindGeek (now Aylo) for encouraging, facilitating, and helping to disseminate child pornography on their site, unpacking the law (Section 230) that protects platforms from legal liability for third-party content and the tension between that and the active production, curation, boosting, and highlighting of said liable content, not to mention the heightened responsibility for pornography companies to be aware of the content the platform and sponsor. After expanding on the extensive community of impacted parties, be they plaintiffs or potential class members, and exploring the distinction between hosting and publishing, Adams summarizes the case's state right now. Next, Andy Birchfield from Beasley Allen joins, diving right into the ever-ongoing case against Johnson & Johnson for their manufacturing, sale, and promotion of their Talc-based baby powder formula despite internal awareness of the presence of asbestos and the devastating medical impact it can have on mothers and their children, with a particular focus on J&J knowingly marketing this toxic powder as a feminine hygiene product and the resulting development of ovarian cancer amongst consumers. Next, Birchfield dives deep into J&J's implementation of the “Texas Two-Step” legal maneuver to avoid responsibility, splitting off all of its liabilities from its assets into a separate company, before immediately moving said company to the asbestos-liability haven of North Carolina, where it would attempt to declare bankruptcy and render any attempts at accountability or compensation null. Walking through the circle of attrition that this has created in the courts, as we enter a third attempt to declare bankruptcy, Andy and Sam wrap up with the future of this case and the role public pressure, congressional legislation, and the questionable morals of J&J leadership all play in hopefully bringing this to a close. Sam and Emma also expand on the developing story about the Trump White House's obstruction of an FBI investigation into Brett Kavanaugh's allegations of sexual assault. The crew watches Sean Hannity compares abortion restrictions to the draft before chatting with attorneys Brian Barr of Levin Papantonio and the legendary Ben Crump about their representation of Roger Fortson, a U.S. airman shot to death by police. They then discuss the back-and-forth sniping between Kamala Harris and Ron DeSantis over taking a phone call regarding hurricane assistance, and Benjamin Netanyahu benevolently addressing the people of Lebanon (major sarcasm intended).

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on uber-controversial revelations around GOP gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson, Israel's aggression to Lebanon, RFK's newest allegations, Mike Johnson's capitulation to Dems over government funding, and labor action in the US, before parsing through Donald Trump's use of the Zionist-Jewish conflation to blame the Jews for his theoretical upcoming loss. Jeet Heer then joins, as he, Sam, and Emma bask in the glory of the last few weeks (and particularly the last 24 hours) of leaks-upon-leaks of Republican malfeasance and controversy, from the Russian money behind right-wing commentators like Tim Pool and Dave Rubin, to the deep revelations of hypocrisy, bigotry, and infidelity in Mark Robinson's “Nude Africa” account (which, incidentally, tied in Chris Rufo), and RFK's ongoing scandal involving NYMag reporter Olivia Nuzzi. Expanding on this, Heer unpacks the growing pictures of a Trump campaign embroiled in chaos, as their main spokesfolks for the disillusioned man – JD Vance and RFK Jr. – continue to flounder in their media rounds while the candidate himself cannot help but get “Loomered.” Wrapping up, Jeet, Sam, and Emma look to the electoral state of the race, unpacking the central role Pennsylvania, North Carolina (thank you, Mark Robinson!), and Georgia are likely to play come November and assessing the rhetoric Harris and Trump are using to court those voters. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive deep into the crevasses of Mark Robinson's developing controversy, gain clarity on some of his and Trump's past interactions, and ponder the question of the leaker. They also tackle Harris' do “no” harm (excluding, you know, the genocide of Palestinians) to US-Israel relations and Nebraska's electoral fight, before parsing through the contradictions and lies that ground the US immigration system debate with Republican caller Will from Virginia. Andrea from Chicago responds to Kowalski's comments on industrial growth and housing, and Nathan from LA gives his perspective on the US economy… and also the show, plus your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam speaks with with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam runs through updates on Harris' post-debate polling bump, the disturbing impact of anti-migrant conspiracy about Springfield, Senate polling, Laura Loomer's DT linkup, labor action in the US, US military aid, Newsmax's defamation trial, and Israel's striking of yet another Gazan shelter, before unpacking the Trump campaign's commitment to dangerous and absurd anti-immigrant conspiracy. Digby then joins as she and Sam run through the major updates to the Presidential race since her appearance last month, from the positive momentum of the Walz pick, responses to the DNC, and Harris' major victory at Tuesday's debate, jumping off of the latter discussion by highlighting some of Trump's biggest blunders butting heads with Harris, from falling face-first into absurd conspiracy-mongering to shifting a conversation on childcare to one on tariffs, and myriad other moments that demonstrated his mental incontinence. Focusing on Harris' performance, Sam and Digby parse through the data on how she connected with voters, including her emphasis on unified community over identity politics, and presenting herself as a change to a decade of Democratic (voter) depression, before wrapping up the show by touching on what a Trump or Harris presidency would mean for the future of US foreign policy. And in the Fun Half: Sam tackles the unsurprisingly inhuman choice by the Trump/Vance campaign to quadruple down on their insanely bigoted anti-immigrant fear-mongering, the US' battle over anti-zionism, and Theo from Vancouver discusses Canada's own crackdown on anti-zionist dissent. Kowalski from Nebraska dives into Project 2025's threat to American agriculture, Sam has an offer for anyone with a glut of brain cells (warning: involves listening to the likes of Jimmy Dore, RFK, and Brett Weinstein), and Tim Pool once again fools himself into thinking he knows something, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news. Emma runs through updates on the Harris/Walz CNN interview, Israel's continuing war crimes, presidential debate protocol, swing state polling, mortgage rates, Trump's absurd IVF pivot, RFK's candidacy, Florida's death penalty, and the death of Johnny Gaudreau. Jeet Heer then joins, as he and Emma parse through some high(and low)lights from Dana Bash's interview of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, walking through her representation of her commitment to a progressive domestic agenda – including a better defense of ‘Bidenomics' than the Biden team has ever offered – while still presenting herself as something “new,” and parsing through her steadfast rhetoric toward continuing support for Israel and their genocide. Expanding on this latter point, Heer unpacks Biden's approach to the genocide in the wake of dropping out of the 2024 election, from his continued commitment to the Abraham Accords to some inklings of sandbagging a future withdrawal of support, before touching on the role Iran is playing in the region and the future of US Foreign Policy. Next, Jeet and Emma look at another VP trying to clean up their President's mess, watching JD Vance perfectly show why he's been called (by Jeet, in this very interview) “the worst VP pick since Aaron Burr” in his response to Trump's recent comments criticizing Florida's abortion ban. And in the Fun Half: Emma watches IUPAT uplift support for a ceasefire and Mehdi Hasan's devastating conversation with UNRWA chief Felipe Lazarini. The MR Team unpacks some unhinged IMs, Trump explores who's really the WOAT president, and JD Vance responds to Trump's Arlington Cemetery fiasco by… further degrading military personnel. An Andrew Callaghan interview absolutely nails pain and insecurity in the US, plus, your calls and IMs!

Emma and Bradley break down the last night of the DNC. First, they run through updates on the final night of the DNC, Harris' acceptance speech, Dems' rejection of a Palestinian speaker, poll numbers, FED interest rate cuts, the ethnic cleansing of Gaza, RealPage's anti-trust woes, RFK's candidacy, Arizona and Texas politics, and Ukraine's offensive in Russia, before shining a light on the speech that wasn't, with Georgia State Rep. and Palestinian Ruwa Romman delivering a moving couple of minutes in the wake of being barred from taking the DNC stage. Next, they dive deep into Kamala Harris' acceptance speech from last night's DNC, unpacking her rhetorical presentation as a tough counterweight to Walz's empathy, her appropriate dissection of the threat of Donald J. Trump, and an unapologetic focus on reproductive justice and rights. After expanding on her role as Biden's replacement candidate, Emma and Bradley parse through the disappointing emphasis by Harris on US empire and primacy, alongside some hypocritical commentary on Trump's support for brutal regimes. They wrap up the free half by reflecting on some initial reactions from undecided voters to Harris and the DNC. And in the Fun Half: Emma and Bradley parse through some of your responses to Harris' acceptance speech last night and the first half coverage, also walking through how she sizes up to some theoretical alternatives. Donald Trump melts down on Fox over the acknowledgment of Harris' momentum and Dems' inhumane treatment of Joe Biden, before getting bumped for Gutfeld. Matt from Orange County touches on some historical parallels with the current moment in the decline of the US Empire. Emma and Brandon unpack Israel's increasing concentration of Gazans in more and more dangerous areas, watch Nancy Pelosi finally pin the loss of the House on the NY Dems, and parse through the DOJ's RealPage anti-trust case, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Mehdi Hasan, founder, CEO, and editor-in-chief of the new media company Zeteo, to discuss the biggest stories of the week and the newest Zeteo documentary entitled "Israel's Reel Extremism". Then, Sam and Emma are joined by Matt Strackbein, better known as The Letterhack, and friend of the show Harvey Kaye, to discuss the comic strip they've collaborated on entitled The 'New Economic Bill of Rights' Comic Strip: A Vision for 2024 and Beyond, available on Common Dreams. First, they run through updates on Harris' widening path to victory, her economic agenda, Israeli settler rampages in the West Bank, Trump's campaign, Latin American leaders' call for Venezuela to rerun elections, Eric Adams' corruption, JD Vance's unfavorability, ceasefire talks, and polio in Gaza, also parsing through the reality behind Trump's attempt to refute his relationship to Project 2025. Mehdi Hasan then joins, diving right into Zeteo's recent work with Basement Films documenting the on-the-ground reality of the Israeli military's proud inhumanity as they carry out an ethnic cleansing in Gaza, and tackling the US political establishment's active refusal to acknowledge this, obscuring their support for this genocide in abstract ideas of “shared values” and “self-defense,” despite the monstrosities that permeate the public consciousness every day. Expanding on this, Hasan, Sam, and Emma watch Miriam Edelson's most recent exultation of Donald Trump's Zionism, looking at how the pro-Israel lobby, much like Oil and Gas executives and the Gun Lobby, bought their way to the forefront of his agenda, before touching on the developing conversation around a ceasefire vs. an arms embargo vs. conditioned, aid, and unpack the potential quagmire of Biden's commitment to Zionist imperial expansion and how it may effect the candidacy of Kamala Harris. Wrapping up, Mehdi, Sam, and Emma bask in the victory of Biden's dropout, assess the still-precarious state of the 2024 election, and discuss what the Walz pick means for Harris' candidacy. Matt Strackbein and Harvey Kaye then join, diving right into the background of the ‘old' Economic Bill of Rights, a New Deal agenda by FDR to bring the old Bill of Rights into a new era, and how this agenda, despite not succeeding, influenced the strategy and agenda of the Democratic Party over the following decades. Stepping into the modern era, Strackbein and Kaye explore the project of making Kaye's work into a comic, the development of Letterhack's relationship with Kaye (among other classic MR guests), the future of their work together, and where we can find it! And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma let Trump entertain them for a bit as they watch him rant about how immigrants get 110% of new jobs, forewarn of the threat of Kamala Harris' communisms, and put down wounded veterans in favor of his Zionist mega-donor. Elephant Graveyard puts Joe Rogan's new master-baiting special in the dirt, and Nancy Mace misunderstands what it means to take part in a racism panel, plus, your IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam speaks with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. Then, the MR Crew is joined by Francesca Fiorentini, host of the Bitchuation Room! First, Emma runs through updates on a major prisoner swap with Russia, the Harris campaign's hot start, questions on Harris' Israel stance, slowing job growth, the slaughter of medical workers in Gaza, Bob Good, Nigeria's mass protests, and the passing of James Baldwin, also parsing through the particular role Kamala Harris played in the recent prisoner swap with Russia, and what that tells us about Biden's presidency. Sam and Digby then parse through the major pivots in the US presidential race from the last months, including Trump and the GOP completely botching the potential bump from the failed assassination attempt with the devastatingly bad choice of JD Vance for VP, Biden's choice to drop out AFTER the Republican Convention, and Kamala Harris likely nomination. They also tackle the GOP's embarrassing inability to stay away from overt bigotry when discussing Harris' candidacy, before wrapping up the interview with a brief assessment of Harris' likely choices for VP and her administration, and whether or not her platform will pivot back to Obama-era neoliberalism. Francesca Fiorentini and Emma then reminisce on the comedy of our (their) youth, watch some highlights from the JD Vance creep compilation, and tackle the devastating relationship between motherhood and poverty. They also unpack the West's relationship with Israel, Elon Musk's recent AI Harris campaign ad, and Harris' concerning pivot right on immigration. And in the Fun Half: Emma discusses land back politics in the US and tackles the absurd controversy around boxer Imane Khelif's victory in the Olympics, with right-wing leaders like JD Vance and Jesse Watters calling on Kamala Harris for a response, plus, your IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma break down some of the biggest headlines of another crazy week, and will maybe take some calls! First, they run through updates on Harris' gains in the polls, Netanyahu's complaints about Harris' “shift in rhetoric” on Gaza, more domestic dissent over support for Israel, Trump's scramble, the Supreme Court, Gavin Newsome's war on the homeless, dropping homicide rates, starvation in Sudan, the cop that killed Sonya Massey, Elon Musk, and Biden's new nomination to the US Postal Service Board, before diving deeper into Harris' response to Netanyahu's Congressional address, and the Biden Administration's continued genocide denial. They also watch as Dem Donors run to mainstream media to ask for Harris to please please pleeeaaaase replace Lina Khan, before talking with Rin from Tennessee about Harris' foreign policy bona fides and pushing her candidacy/presidency to the left. Nick from Ohio also discusses Harris' social media campaign and her connection with young voters. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack the trickle of news about Kamala Harris' VP pick, watch as the GOP's struggle to discuss Kamala Harris continues, and admire JD Vance's daring fusion of insane takes with an utter dearth of charisma. Matt from North Carolina discusses Judaism, Zionism and Joe Biden, Donald Trump Jr. tries to make life with JD Vance a little more exciting, and Giancarlo calls in to chat about pressuring Kamala Harris. Donald Trump denies knowledge about this Project 2025 he keeps talking about, and Sam and Emma have an expansive conversation around voting and Kamala Harris' candidacy, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, they run through updates on the US Economy, the anniversary of D-Day, Clarence Thomas' corruption, Bannon's prison order, Bibi's Congressional address, ceasefire negotiations in Gaza, the NAACP's call to halt weapons sales to Israel, Alex Jones' legal debts, the polling bump from Trump's conviction, the fallout from Biden's asylum policy, and South Korean labor action at Samsung, before diving deeper into the developing stories of SCOTUS corruption, and the obvious holes in Alito's flag-waving excuse as he still refuses to be recused from any election-related case. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the obvious negative impact Trump's conviction had on his campaign (no matter what racist rhetoric has been spewed to the contrary), and where voters lie with Election Day just five months away. Expanding on this, they unpack the Democrats' unwillingness to take this conviction head-on, once again falling for the weakest of conservative aggrievements, and avoiding labeling Trump as the felon that he is, before wrapping up with some additional discussion of Trump's 2024 campaign and the horrendous politicking of the Democratic Party. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss noted felon Dinesh D'Souza's unpatriotic comparison between America's framers and other-noted-felon Donald Trump, expand on Trump's clear links to Israeli apartheid (and a major funder's wishes for the West Bank), and watch Trump show off his religious bona fides. Joe Rogan contemplates how far the establishment will go to stop Donald Trump in a segment riddled with truly diverse displays of bigotry, Dave Rubin calls out Rogan for refusing to come out as a Trump conservative, and Steve Bannon's goin' to jail! Byron Donalds tiptoes around his interracial marriage as he defends his comments on Jim Crow's promotion of Black families, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam & Emma speak with Meron Rapoport, editor of Local Call and writer at +972 Magazine, to discuss his recent piece entitled "Surveillance and interference: Israel's covert war on the ICC exposed", co-authored with Yuval Abraham. Then, they speak with Canadian-American journalist & writer Guy Lawson to discuss his upcoming book Hot Dog Money: Inside the Biggest Scandal in the History of College Sports.  After basking in some of the highlights from Trump's conviction, Guy Lawson joins as he reflects on the classic threat of authoritarianism and why people always fall for this ever-reiterating ruse. Next, Lawson walks Sam and Emma through his latest work on the absolute exploitation racket that is NCAA sports, first touching on the recent tentative settlement between the institution and the student-athletes they have refused to pay for years, before diving head first into the story of Marty Blazer, and how he came to expose the massive network of bribery that underpinned the entire NCAA system, with only the kids ever getting blamed. Wrapping up, Guy assesses the NCAA's future (and likely end), from anti-trust exemption to athlete compensation. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma reflect on Alan Dershowitz reflecting on Alan Dershowitz, parse through the highlights of the alt-right's reactions to the Trump convictions, and bask in Jerry Seinfeld going full idiotic reactionary. They also assess why Biden isn't putting a greater focus on Trump's conviction and abortion, plus, your IM's!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news. First, they run through updates on the ICJ's order to halt Israel's invasion of Rafah (and Israel's subsequent escalation), South Carolina's congressional maps, Ukraine aid, UC workers strikes, the powerlessness of Democratic Senators, Louisiana's abortion pill bill, and Ohio's presidential ballot, before parsing through Trump's overwhelming popularity, at least according to his discussion of crowd sizes and his VP choices. Jeet Heer then joins, jumping right into the incredibly telling rhetoric around the Zionist backlash to The Hague issuing arrest warrants for various Israeli and Hamas leaders, attempting to present International Law as something exclusively for disciplining the global south, particularly in the wake of Biden's election under the pretense of restoring the international rules-based order. Expanding on this, Heer, Sam, and Emma explore how Biden's extreme conservatism on Israel policy has essentially meant a complete continuation of Donald Trump's foreign policy regime in the region, with recent threats against The Hague and the World Food Project laying bare these fascist inclinations. After assessing the long-term implications of Biden's making his extreme foreign policy the center of his reelection battle (whether he likes it or not), Jeet, Sam, and Emma wrap up by dreaming of Democratic Leadership that isn't absolutely petrified of holding Republicans to account. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch a righteous Harvard Grad student use his commencement speech to speak out against the institutional support for Israel's genocidal campaign, discuss the incredible pressure from the country's zionist elite on major public, private, and federal institutions, and listen to Alan Dershowitz's candid opinion on Jewish studies professors. They also discuss the central role Cop City continues to play in Atlanta politics, Mike Johnson's anti-migrant fear-mongering, and dive deep into the Daily Wire's childish ideology, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Ryan Grim, D.C. Bureau Chief at The Intercept and co-host of Counter Points, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma react to some of the new developments in Trump's hush money trial, including the appearance of...someone different to advocate for Trump outside the courthouse: Florida Sen. Rick Scott. The MR Crew, and reporters speaking to Sen. Scott, speculate that, due to Trump's gag order, Trump may be calling in some surrogates who are less...inhibited than Trump is at the moment. Then, after not being able to figure out his laptop, Ryan Grim joins the program by phone, and he, Sam, and Emma start off by recapping the calamitous end of Kristi Noem's book tour, with the last stop on Stuart Varney's Fox Business show looking like the breaking point. They then discuss how AIPAC has been slightly neutralized in the election cycle this year, and, per Ryan's reporting and analysis, the fear some in the organization are feeling that they don't possess the same sway over Biden given his decision to withhold some aid to Israel over the prospect of a Rafah invasion, AND that they haven't been as impactful or decisive in Democratic primaries, specifically against Squad members. Ryan outlines some of the equivocating that Bidenworld has done after Biden's comments on withholding aid, and Grim zeroes in on the cleavage between the Biden administration officials responsible for military and intelligence actions (Defense Secretary Austin & CIA Director Burns) who are in negotiations with Israel & Palestine, compared to that of the diplomatic and political actors (Secretary of State Blinken & Biden's Chief of Staff Jeff Zients) who have been much more deferential both publicly and privately towards Israel. They then discuss the terrible implications for the U.S., Palestinians, and even Israeli soldiers in terms of casualties and damage if a large scale ground invasion of Rafah occurs, and how, even if Biden and Netanyahu may understand those implications, they may be too involved ideologically to try and put a real stop to it. Grim then updates Sam and Emma on some of the other AIPAC machinations going on, including their infusion in an Oregon congressional primary to stop Rep. Pramila Jayapal's sister, Susheela, from winning. They then finally discuss what political implications this may have for President Biden in November, and how, if voters who would actually be championing Biden (activists, politically engaged young voters) weren't so disgusted with Biden's conduct in Israel, they'd be endorsing and highlighting some serious policy victories that Biden's engaged in (banning natural gas export terminals, for example). Instead, the connotation with Biden due to his support of Israel is inevitably clouded for some in his key voter bases. And in the Fun Half, Sam, Emma, and Bradley react to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu speaking with Dr. Phil in Jerusalem (???) about how Israel will fight even with his fingernails if they have (and, Netanyahu qualifies, that they do have more to fight with than fingernails. Thanks for clarifying!) Afterwards, they take a look at Israel's UN representative, Gilad Erdan, getting in some prop work at the General Assembly meeting, claiming that the body is shredding its charter by admitting Palestine into the body further with more privileges (he literally shredded a tiny copy of the UN charter.) They then react to some of the right wing fearmongering over anti-Semitism (something they've always really cared about, seemingly), with Florida Rep. Aaron Bean warning a House subcommittee that...2nd graders are trafficking in Nazi propaganda. Then the MR Crew gets through the jump scare of watching Katie Britt talk (hasn't gotten over the State of the Union response cadence, seemingly) about Jewish college students being treated like civil rights activists in the 1960's, Trump's appeal to Jewish voters outside the courthouse (they should be ashamed of themselves if they've supported Biden), as well as Trump being totally normal and not concerned about RFK siphoning votes away from him. He just needed to make a 4+ minute long video about how he's more anti-vax than RFK is. He's not worried! Plus, your calls & IM's!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Mehdi Hasan, founder, CEO, and editor-in-chief of the new media company Zeteo, to discuss the biggest stories of the week and his new venture. First, Sam & Emma check in on Trump's trial, where people are concerned about how he keeps falling asleep. But that doesn't matter to South Carolina diner patrons* (*Ainsley Earhardt's friends and family), including former South Carolina State Rep. Chip Huggins, who thinks Trump is being crucified in court. It also doesn't apply to NewsMax's Carl Higbie, who is ecstatic to see how much energy Trump is showing by taking a car from lower Manhattan to Trump Tower on 5th Avenue. Then Mehdi joins Sam and Emma, and they discuss how the propaganda in support of Israel appearing on news and social media is the greatest since the entire media machine threw itself behind the Iraq War in the early 2000's. They discuss President Biden's reactions to the campus protests, the weaponization of the word "democracy", the baffling decision by Senate Majority Leader Schumer to reportedly partner with Speaker Johnson to invite Netanyahu to address Congress, and also check out Sen. Bernie Sanders explaining why Israel may end up being President Biden's own version of Vietnam. And in the Fun Half, the MR Crew check out Joe Rogan decrying out of control wokeness infiltrating college campuses, a respected Dartmouth history professor, Annelise Orleck, being forcibly arrested by police at a campus protest, Mehdi Hasan expertly dressing down Piers Morgan in a debate over the usage of the word "Intifada", and Donald Trump pretending like he doesn't know who RFK Jr. is when asked about him, even though they met at Trump Tower in 2016, and Trump is worried he's going to siphon votes away from him in November.

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with political commentator Owen Jones to round up the week in news. Then she speaks with comedian Kate Willett! First, Emma runs through updates on the brutal assault on Emory students and faculty protesting genocide and cop-city by the Atlanta police, mass arrests of anti-war protesters on college campuses across the US, Israel's imminent invasion of Rafah, US troops' presence in Chad, Trump's legal woes, Net Neutrality, the climate crisis, and new anti-trans legislation out of Tennessee, before parsing through some rather telling comments from the ongoing Supreme Court case about Trump's potential immunity as President, with representation going as far as to make space for immunity over extra-judicial assassinations. Owen Jones then joins, as he and Emma reflect on the last seven months of constant scenes of devastation and genocide coming out of Gaza, and the mainstream media's heart-wrenching insistence on downplaying the horror, denying the deaths, and running cover for Israel's project of ethnic cleansing under the guise of victimhood. Expanding on this, Jones and Emma explore how the severe repression and propaganda from mainstream Western political institutions is seeing an en-masse public awakening to the genocide of Gaza, and the Western elites' violent commitment to controlling the discourse, with supposed “liberal democracies” from the US to the EU and UK defaming anti-zionist Jews and anti-semites and uplifting actual racists and Jew-haters as legitimate actors. After parsing through the absurdity of the media's insistence on ignoring the obvious rhetoric and policy that has shaped Israel's approach to this entire war, Owen steps back to look to the role of the UK in particular, with the Labor Party's step back from the coalition of Jeremy Corbin at the end of the last decade, and committing itself fully to Israel's agenda of dehumanization and hasbara. Wrapping up, Jones walks Emma through the performative cruelty of the UK's Tory government's ongoing illegal and immoral deportation scheme for asylum seekers. Kate Willet also joins, as she and Emma discuss the repression of left-wing beliefs in the supposedly “liberal” entertainment industry, and the growing trend of the industry's support for right-wing reactionary comics. Kate and the MR Team explore the attempt to present left-wing comedy as hyper-politicized and right-wing comedy as almost de-politicized, before wrapping up by touching on the difficulty of escaping the self-censorship pushed on women and lefties when it comes to speaking out about politics. And in the Fun Half: Emma previews new allegations about Kristi Noam's killer personality, watch Briahna Joy Gray refuse to back down from Rising Co-Host Robby Soave's fascist criticism of student protests, reflects on the greater failure of the US media amid this crackdown on free speech, and listen to Donald Trump attempt to frame these non-violent protests as worse than Charlottesville. Shawn Hannity's Blonde and blue-eyed guest waxes about the severity of the ongoing “illegal occupation” of Pal– I mean– of college campuses by students who pay tuition to be there, and the MR Crew discusses the media's reproduction of genocidal propaganda, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's a Casual Friday all calls and all clips edition! Sam, Emma and the MR Crew break down the biggest stories of the week. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the opening of the Erez crossing for aid to Gaza, the US economy, Biden's student debt relief, Trump v. Tish James, and immigration policy, before parsing through More Perfect Union's leaks about major union-busting practices at Mercedes' Alabama plant ahead of a major UAW unionization vote. Next, Sam and Emma look at the recent evolutions in US policy toward Israel's genocide in Gaza, with Blinken revealing that Biden HAS, in fact, had the leverage to force Netanyahu and Israel's hand with aid, as well as using the phrase “immediate ceasefire” (whatever that means to them), before tackling the recent report on Israel's AI-facilitated “Where's Daddy?” program used to target the spouses and children of their military targets, and watching Senator Coons come forward on conditioning aid to Israel. They also talk with Rick from San Francisco about the Affordable Connectivity Program, Scott from Monterey absolutely dismantles Sam's anti-libertarian hypothetical, and Gary explores the concept of a 2024 Kamala Harris candidacy. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Crowder's potential unfair labor practices case, Nancy Mace beefs with Maria Bartiromo over Kevin McCarthy, and Rosanne Barr offers some quick wisdom for young women (it's just blood libel). Bro Flamingo questions the reappearance of Hillary ahead of the 2024 elections, Dave from Haverhill blue-balls Sam, and Lara Trump offers up some sweet MyPillow talk. RFK defends his spoiler candidacy, PBD and co. have a pitch for Candace Owens, and Ronald Raygun puts on his rose-colored glasses for MR's 20th anniversary, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! And the MR Crew is doing an all CALLS & CLIPS SHOW! Then, they're joined by Jason Myles, co-host of the This Is Revolution podcast! First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the US' faux-ceasefire resolution, the UK's threat of an arms embargo to Israel, UNRWA funding, humanitarian assistance to Gaza, Netanyahu's potential visit to Congress, aid to Ukraine, the GOP agenda, the DOJ's agenda, and Bob Menendez's why I left the left (foreign bribes), also watching Phyllis Bennis unpack exactly why the US' faux ceasefire resolution was so pernicious. They also dive into the US media's coverage of famine in Gaza, the balance between Democratic incompetence and Democratic malfeasance on Israel, and watch Chip Roy and Marjorie Taylor Greene initiate the most recent House GOP mutiny. After running through some highlights of the Right's response to Trump's massive debt to New York, Jason Myles joins, diving right into his recent article “Same as it Ever Was: The Illusion of American Political Discourse In Media,” on the faux-evolution of US political discourse alongside immaterial policy changes. Jason tackles the progression of US immigration policy from the progressive facade of the Obama Administration, through the backlash to Trump's objectionable and visibly brutal border policy, up to Biden's recent pivot to completely embrace the GOP and Trump's far-right framing of the border crisis, before he, Sam, and Emma parse through parallels with the rhetoric around crime and the Defund movement. Sam and Emma then expand on the ongoing GOP mutiny against Speaker Mike Johnson, parse through the dramatic break between Candace Owens and the Daily Wire, and bask in the complete unraveling of the GOP's Biden inquiry, with some help from Russian collusion.

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news. And then, they're joined by Matthew Film Guy! First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump's Georgia case, Menendez's legal woes, Gaetz's Subpoena, Russian elections, Donald Trump, and objections from big tech over labor laws, also parsing through some of the major seats up for grabs in the House and Senate come November. Jeet Heer then joins, as he helps Sam and Emma parse through Sen. Schumer's recent call for new Israeli elections alongside a two-state solution, looking at it in the context of the “uncommitted” movement as a (rather weak) attempt to stay the pressure from the left ahead of the election, despite the genocide raging on. Jeet, Sam, and Emma expand on the electoral conversation, discussing RFK's ballot access problem and VP PR stunt, and the Democrats' continuing failure to mobilize voters for Biden, before wrapping up by assessing Biden's dwindling polling numbers and the absolute absurdity of his new TikTok ban. Matthew Film Guy also joins, tackling his Oscar re-previews, and offering up his suggestion of what to watch this week –– Kiarostami's “Like Someone in Love.” And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Bernie's 32-hour workweek bill with some help from Shawn Fain, Tim Scott and Tulsi Gabbard do their best Trump Administration auditions. The MR Crew tackles the likelihood of a Kristi Noam VP, Dave Rubin and Greg Gutfeld celebrating fascism in their own, unique ways, and Ben Shapiro wanting to make you work (and you better be happy about it!). They also tackle the great retail theft myth, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam speaks with Ryan Grim, D.C. Bureau Chief at The Intercept and co-host of Counter Points, to round up the week in news. Then, he's joined by Francesca Fiorentini, host of the Bitchuation Room! First, Sam runs through updates on yesterday's State of the Union, Biden-Trump polling, US aid to Gaza, US arms to Israel, ceasefire talks, NATO, US jobs numbers, Iowan fascism, FEC policy, and Donald Trump's defamation debt, also parsing through the impact of yesterday's ceasefire protest outside of the SOTU, and Biden's supposed hot mic moment committing to his insistence that he'll definitely convince Netanyahu to let in aid sometime soon. Ryan Grim then joins, running through some updates on recent challenges to the Intercept and the mass layoff that hit the company's unionized staff, before stepping back to assess the absurdity of Biden's hot mic comments to Senator Bennett and the doubtfulness around Biden doing something new to stop this conflict. Expanding on this, Grim and Sam walk through Biden's role in pushing unconditional US support for the genocide in Gaza, the oddity of the leaks coming out of VP Harris' office, and Biden's history of being a centrist cipher on every issue OTHER than militant Zionism and US imperialism. Next, they parse through Biden's SOTU statements on immigration, completely turning the notion that “no human is illegal” and continuing to commit to the GOP's framing on the border, before wrapping up by assessing Biden's goal for the speech, and how well he accomplished it. Francesca Fiorini and Sam then address the question of who Biden's SOTU speech was for, explore the vague notions of liberal politics that he promoted with little to no agenda to back it up, and gauge the future of democratic leadership after this election cycle. After briefly touching on Biden's comments on the whole “gerontocracy” problem, Francesca and Sam wrap up the free half by parsing through GOP Senator Katie Britt's response to Biden's State of the Union, and the – ah – pointed reviews from the GOP establishment. And in the Fun Half: Sam watches Lara Trump extoll the public's general embarrassment around Trump as proof of his strong base, Candace Owens highlights the problem of those damn cultish Jews, and Sean Hannity accidentally paints Joe Biden as “having energy,” plus, your IMs!
