Is there anything wrong with Democratic leadership being so devoutly…secular? Jon sits down for a conversation with Texas State Representative James Talarico, who put becoming an ordained minister on hold to run for US Senate. They discuss how genuine connection is the only road toward persuasion in our divided world, whether James can flip a Senate seat on a platform of loving thy neighbor, and how Republicans are trying to knock him off a pedestal with OnlyFans headlines. Plus: why Democrats should take responsibility for the growth of Christian nationalism. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Its theory of change may sound brand new, designed in response to this administration's increasingly authoritarian agenda but California Donor Table has led with a power building model of philanthropy for over two decades. It starts with donors who are committed to using their resources to generate a more just California and nation by investing in progressive communities of color. Their funding produces the infrastructure that communities need to elect candidates who reflect their needs and values. That infrastructure also supports good governance and holds elected officials accountable. In this episode of Power Station, Ludovic Blain, the incomparable CEO of California Donor Table, breaks down how to not only build power but to wield power by funding progressive eco-systems across geographic boundaries and tax statuses. Ludovic reflects on the promise of a new generation of candidates running for offices from boards of supervisors to Mayors and the US Senate and how to prepare for inevitable voter suppression in the mid-terms. Ludovic reminds us that crafting the policies and building the society we want to see requires that we enable progressive leadership to take hold in all levels of government. Listen, be energized and share this episode.

Crude oil futures higher. Precious metals up with gold back above $4K. Base metals mixed. Cryptocurrencies also rallying.

Compromise said to involve fully funding Departments of Agriculture and Veterans Affairs for a year while partially funding other agencies through 30-Jan. Agreement guarantees laid-off federal employees will be re-hired and given backpay. Any deal would also unblock release of delayed economic data, providing colour on December rate cut prospects. White House also warned of a potentially negative Q4 GDP print from shutdown that extended past Thanksgiving. Companies Mentioned: Accor, Metsera, Pfizer, Novo Nordisk

The US Senate has made a vote moving the shutdown forward, will it really end?
The U.S. Senate progressed a deal towards ending the longest U.S. Government shutdown in history. Eight democrats joined all but one republican in voting to move forward with a funding bill that will keep the U.S. Government liquid through January 30th, drawing rebuke from Democratic party leaders given the deal's lack of guarantees on healthcare. Meanwhile, China will resume exports of Nexperia chips following a row with the Dutch government, potentially giving a boost to the autos industry which had been hit by the supply shock. In pharma news, the battle between Pfizer and Novo Nordisk for weight-loss biotech Metsera has ended, with the Danish conglomerate losing out in the $10 billion deal.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dr. Rick Brennan, an acclaimed Australian humanitarian leader who led WHO and NGO crisis response in multiple conflicts over several decades, walks us through his personal story. He then unpacks the scale and gravity of what is now unfolding in Darfar—featuring the “F word” (famine), the “G word”( genocide, affirmed by the US Senate), and the “C word” (cholera). The crisis requires political action from the UAE—and President Trump's attention. “There is an obligation to act.” And yet it occurs as global humanitarian needs have soared while humanitarian funding has dropped by half—the US by over 80%. It is a wake-up call, a rude awakening.

President Donald J. Trump is calling for an immediate end to the US Senate practice of the filibuster, an internal Senate rule that generally requires 60 of the 100 Senators to vote to pass legislation. This 60 vote requirement is allowing the minority of Democrat Senators to block the MAGA agenda. Democrats have already announced their own intent to end the filibuster to force their agenda down America's throat as soon as they return to power. Ending the filibuster is, therefore, necessary to save our nation, as the Democrats have made absolutely clear that they intend to eradicate America as a nation that our Founders or most of us would recognize. Flooding the nation with tens or hundreds of millions of third-worlders, making both Puerto Rico and Washington DC into states for four more Democrat Senators, ending gun rights, utterly destroying the integrity of the electoral system, and more, are all to be done by a bare majority of Democrat votes.It certainly seems as if the choices are end the filibuster now before the Democrats return to power, or watch our nation die.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comMainstream Democrats appear to have little to no plan on how to win back Michigan's Arab American voters, after losing them in record numbers during last year's election.However, Michigan's Progressive US Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed may have an answer.In this ‘Mehdi Unfiltered' interview, the Bernie-backed candidate tells Mehdi why he believes he is the “only” Democrat who can win Michigan's US Senate seat in next year's midterms and what it will take to win back those who abandoned Democrats last year due to the party's support for Israel's war in Gaza.“The way that we get back the people that we lost is to have a galvanizing fight…one where we understand that the same system that is corrupting our politics to send our money abroad to buy other countries' tanks and wage a genocide is the same system that's corrupting out healthcare system,” El-Sayed says to Mehdi.Mehdi and El-Sayed cover a wide range of issues in their discussion, including:* Whether El-Sayed is worried about AIPAC targeting him (“Michiganders are sick and tired of being told who they can and cannot vote for”)* Democrats failure to have a full reckoning over Gaza's role during last year's election (“It didn't go far enough”)* El-Sayed's “Medicare for All” campaign (“We have to do the work of persuasion”)Oh, and don't miss out on hearing which Democratic president encouraged El-Sayed to consider a career in politics.Paid subscribers can watch the full interview.

On today's podcast: 1) The mood in US stock markets has been lifted again by strong earnings from Apple and Amazon to round up the week of mega-cap results. Futures for both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 were higher after both indexes sunk on Thursday. Apple forecast a major surge in sales for the holiday season to provide assurance to investors that the iPhone remains a growth driver, while Amazon’s cloud division notched its best quarterly growth in almost three years. That’s smoothed out the setback in the big tech and AI narrative from the mixed reception to results from Meta Platforms, Microsoft and Alphabet. 2) Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang still hopes to sell chips from the company’s Blackwell lineup to customers in China, though he has no current plans to do so, he told reporters Friday. Blackwell is Nvidia’s latest generation of artificial intelligence semiconductors, figuring prominently as a potential bargaining chip in trade talks between the US and China. Licensing the sale of those products did not figure in the discussion between President Trump and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping this week, with the US leader saying Nvidia and the Chinese government will have to keep talking about the $5 trillion company’s access to the Asian nation’s market. 3) President Trump called on Senate Republicans to vote to get rid of the filibuster in the upper chamber, amid a government shutdown that has lasted nearly a month. Because of the filibuster rule in the US Senate, most legislation needs 60 votes to pass. While a majority of lawmakers could revise those rules, both parties have largely resisted doing so to preserve their ability to shape legislation when outside of the majority. During the recent funding showdown, Democrats have refused to support a Republican bill offering stopgap funding unless the GOP agrees to extend healthcare subsidies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
President Trump announced this week, that he has ordered the Department of War to “immediately” start testing nuclear weapons, something the United States has not done since 1992 at the end of the Cold War. Trump's statement came just an hour before he was scheduled to hold a high stakes meeting in South Korea with Chinese President Xi Jinping and also after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced the successful tests of two nuclear powered, nuclear capable weapons systems–a cruise missile and an underwater drone. The US Senate today, voted to nuke President Trump's tariffs on Canada. This is the second time this year that the Senate has voted to repeal President Trump's tariffs on Canada.

Lefties and the 2nd amendment have been a perennial topic over the last decade. More specifically, the debate has been around how legacy 2A activists should approach them: should we welcome more people to the cause(especially if they undermine Democrat attempts at regulation by injecting pro-gun people into their primaries), or should we be suspicious of militants seeking to use firearms to further their political aims?This has grown even more relevant due to various hard lefty militant groups like John Brown Gun Club and Socialist Rifle Association, both of whom have both had individual members and small groups commit violent armed attacks in furtherance of explicit political goals. The revelation that a USMC vet and current Maine Democrat candidate for US Senate has trained SRA groups in the past in individual and small unit tactics only increases the urgency. I decided to provide my thoughts and guidance on a somewhat nuanced topic, based on my research and experience with these groups as well as the left at large.

In episode 147, we sit down with sixth-generation farmer and U.S. Senate candidate Hallie Shoffner, who's stepping out of the fields and into the fight for Arkansas. Hallie shares why she's taking on Tom Cotton and how she plans to stand up for the farmers, families, and working people who've been pushed to the back of the line.Hallie knows what it means to have to fight like hell for everything you have, and still get hammered by an economy that's rigged against you--she'll fight that rigged system every day, Tom Cotton's the guy doing the rigging.She's not a politician, she's not much for political parties, and she's never run for office in her life—the only thing Hallie ever wanted to do was farm. But if she can't farm, she's going to fight. For families. For Arkansas.
