TVC 717.2: Mark Shaw, author of Abuse of Power: Connecting Robert Kennedy's Assassinaton with the Murders of JFK and Dorothy Kilgallen, talks to Ed about a recently released YouTube video about John Shear (pictured above, left), a longtime paddock captain at Santa Anita Racetrack in Southern California who hired Sirhan Sirhan (pictured above, center) as a "hot walker" several months before Sirhan was arrested for the assassination of RFK in June 1968. According to Mark, Shear's comments in that video not only lend credence to the possibility that Sirhan may have been used as a fall guy by the mob for the assassination of RFK, but make the case that Sirhan should receive a new trial in light of these new revelations. (Though John Shear died in December 2023, Mark interviewed Shear's son, Michael, in December 2024; Michael Shear provided confirmation of his father's account.) Both Abuse of Power and The Reporter Who Knew Too Much are available through Post Hill Press and Amazon.com.
On February 4th, President Donald Trump said that all Palestinians in Gaza should leave the coastal enclave and go to other Arab countries such as Egypt or Jordan—a move that, if actualized, would mark a drastic chapter in the Palestinians' history of being ethnically cleansed. Israel immediately embraced the idea, with the country's war minister ordering the military to draft plans to facilitate a mass exodus of Palestinians from Gaza. Palestinian groups as well as Egypt, Jordan, and many other countries have roundly rejected the idea, but Trump and his foreign policy team continue to insist that they will carry out the plan which would end in a US takeover of Gaza.On this episode of On the Nose, Jewish Currents senior reporter Alex Kane spoke to Mouin Rabbani, a co-editor of Jadaliyya, and Tariq Kenney-Shawa, US policy fellow at Al-Shabaka, about situating this moment in the long history of Palestinians displacement, whether and how a Trump ethnic cleansing plan is likely to unfold, and how it will impact the ceasefire in Gaza.Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Further Reading“With No Buy-in From Egypt or Jordan, Trump Appears to Back Away From His Gaza Plan,” Michael Shear, The New York Times“‘Trump Gaza is finally here!': US president promotes Gaza plan in AI video,” Mick Krever and Mostafa Salem, CNN“Palestinians in Paraguay,” Hadeel Assali, London Review of Books“Trump Revives Biden's Failed Proposal To Remove Palestinians From Gaza,” Matthew Petti, Reason“Netanyahu's Goal for Gaza: ‘Thin' Population ‘to a Minimum,'” Ryan Grim, The Intercept“WikiLeaks: Israel Intentionally Kept Gaza on Brink of Economic Collapse,” Joshua Norman, CBS News“Exclusive: Egypt's alternative to Trump's 'Gaza Riviera' aims to sideline Hamas,” Andrew Mills, Reuters“Trump wants Palestinians out of Gaza.

It's democracy vs. fascism in the most consequential election of our lifetime. We talk about its implications for border communities. Also, Todd talks about his latest reporting from Mexico, where migrants are continually being sent back to the country's southern border, creating a cycle of futility and suffering. Melissa recalls reporting on Trump's Operation Faithful Patriot, in which Trump set up military camps at the U.S. southern border before the 2018 midterm election. He also used special Border Patrol teams to kidnap protesters in Portland, Oregon. If he's elected, it will be much worse this time. We also discuss Kamala Harris's tough stance on border security and the bipartisan bill rejected by Trump, and the broader implications of this for human rights and migration. And we get into misconceptions about “open borders,” and we talk about the role of “robodogs” and other technology in border enforcement. And much more. Give it a listen and leave a comment. How are you feeling leading up to November 5? Leave a comment Also, during the podcast, neither Todd nor Melissa could remember the name of a great book on immigration policy under the Trump administration (it's been that kind of a month): it's Border Wars: Inside Trump's Assault on Immigration, by Julie Hirschfeld Davis and Michael Shear. It's chock-full of details about what went down inside the administration during that chaotic era. And here's a post featuring the infamous robodogs from March, when Todd crashed the annual Border Security expo in El Paso, Texas, even though the expo banned journalists. And one last thing—don't forget to vote. Our democracy depends on it!

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/06/2023): 3:05pm- The Supreme Court of the United States has denied West Virginia's emergency request to “lift an appeals court's injunction, which enabled a transgender girl to compete on her middle school's female teams until the three-judge panel reaches a final decision.” According to reporting from The Hill's Zach Schonfeld and Brooke Migdon, “Justice Samuel Alito in a statement joined by Justice Clarence Thomas dissenting from the decision said the case ‘concerns an important issue that this Court is likely to be required to address in the near future.'” Though, as Rich notes, the title of the article is incredibly misleading, you can read more here: https://thehill.com/homenews/3937891-supreme-court-rules-west-virginia-transgender-athletes-can-compete-on-female-sports-teams/ 3:30pm- FACT CHECK: According to a misleading headline from the Miami Herald the “13-year-old son of Rebekah Jones, whistleblower who clashed with DeSantis, arrested over memes.” Christina Pushaw, a political aide for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, notes that “he threatened to shoot up his middle school and stab classmates who angered him.” 3:35pm- According to Leah Barkoukis of Townhall, “[d]uring former President Trump's speech at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday following his arraignment in a Manhattan courthouse, ABC News blurred out the message written on his podium. ‘TEXT TRUMP to 88022' was displayed as a way to fundraise for his presidential campaign, but the news organization did not want their viewers to see…” Interestingly, the news organization did not blur a text-to-donate number displayed during a recent President Joe Biden speech.

Rich, Matt, and Henry review the evidence—social media may have oversold the prediction. 4:40pm- Does Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) have a secret burner Twitter account? Who knows for sure! BUT she was on Late Night with Seth Meyers and was as hilarious as you would imagine. 5:05pm- The Drive at 5: 2024 Republican Presidential Primary Endorsements- Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) has announced that he is endorsing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for President.

In this episode of The Bald Brad Show, we cover two heated clashes in American politics. First, New York Times reporter Michael Shear challenges White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre over the Biden administration's selective silence on former President Donald Trump's legal matters. Shear pressed Jean-Pierre on why the administration had not commented on the 34 felony charges Trump is facing from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg involving a hush-money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. Second, Rep. Dan Crenshaw's comments on gun control in the wake of the Nashville school shooting cause controversy on CNN's State of the Union. Host Dana Bash challenges Crenshaw on his support for more guns in schools, pointing out that many of the deadliest shootings in the US have been committed with an AR-15. Finally, we discuss the recent indictment of former President Trump over hush-money paid to Stormy Daniels. Don Jr. and other Trump supporters respond to the news with outrage, calling it "weaponized justice" and claiming it is part of a larger effort to silence conservatives. We discuss the legal and political implications of Trump becoming the first former president to face criminal charges and what it could mean for the future of American politics.
McCarthy and Biden meet one on one to negotiate raising the debt limit. Plus, the seemingly stagnant conversation around police reform in the U.S. Join moderator Yamiche Alcindor, Ayesha Rascoe of NPR, Michael Shear of The New York Times, Ryan Nobles of NBC News and Susan Page of USA Today to discuss this and more.
Hour 1 - Good Monday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Kevin McCarthy was elected House speaker in the 15th floor vote. Members had to physically restrain Rep. Mike Rogers (R-AL) from going at Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) after the 14th failed attempt to elect Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) as speaker of the House. After 2 years, President Biden decided to visit the southern border. Gov. Greg Abbott made a surprise visit to El Paso to deliver a note to President Biden as he stepped off Air Force One for his brief visit to the U.S.-Mexico border. New York Times reporter Michael Shear cornered White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and National Security Council spokesman John Kirby — during a Friday briefing — about the administration's handling of the ongoing crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border.
An immigrant's unpredictable journey to America doesn't end when they get to the border. Political stunts by Governors Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis sending asylum seekers to the steps of the U.S. Capitol and Martha's Vineyard is the latest reminder. Andy speaks with two people embedded in the journey to the U.S., LA Times reporter Molly O'Toole and New York Times reporter Michael Shear, who explain the messy, lengthy process asylum seekers face. They discuss why deterrence policies don't work, the flawed myths behind “good” and “bad” immigrants, and why we'll see more Afghan immigrants crossing through Central America.
