Minor political party in the US

New York City's mayoral race is heating up, and into the inferno walks Brad Lander: City Comptroller, longtime progressive pain in the ass (in the best way), and, most importantly, not a corrupt tool of the oligarchy. That alone is refreshing. Lander's running on a revolutionary NYC platform: competence, decency, and not being Eric Adams, Andrew Cuomo, or a trash fire named Donald Trump. He's spent his career backing tenants, workers, and immigrants, including showing up at an ICE facility to demand Newark mayor Ras Baraka's release. On Gaslit Nation, Lander made it clear: he's not here to play nice with predators in power. He's here to break the cycle of corruption, fight for working people, and stop ICE from turning Rikers Island into Guantanamo East. On climate? “Climate risk is financial risk,” Lander says. His plan includes rooftop solar, ensuring net-zero emissions by 2040, and preventing your apartment from becoming a boiling deathtrap during the next heat wave. (Remember Cuomo leaving people to die in nursing homes?) As the feds abandon us under Trump and Musk, someone's got to step up. Lander wants to expand the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. And for non-New Yorkers: NYC's mayor matters nationally. This is a frontline job against elite impunity and rising autocracy. We need Lander to help rebuild democracy. Want to protect New York, and the country, from grifters like Adams and Cuomo? Use ranked-choice voting, ranking Lander #1. Then rank all the other progressives endorsed by the Working Families Party. Do not put Cuomo on your ballot. He already resigned after using his power to prey on women. Don't make us go through that again. Go to landerfornyc.com and help make New York City safer and stronger, for the sake of its residents and all of America. Share this interview with the New Yorkers in your life to help stop Cuomo and elect Lander New York City's next mayor. Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Tonight, President Trump will give his first major address to the nation since the inauguration of his second term. He'll probably talk about how great of a job he's doing, the Gulf of America and deporting undocumented immigrants. Who knows, he might even rant about the Russian influence investigation some more. Democratic Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut tells us why he won't be attending Trump's address — and why the president is vying to become Russian President Vladimir Putin's new best friend. And later in the show, California Democratic Representative Lateefah Simon is set to deliver the Working Families Party response to the president. She previews her speech for us.In headlines: Trump's 25-percent tariffs on Mexican and Canadian imports are set to take effect today, First Lady Melania Trump made her first public appearance since Inauguration Day, and the Senate confirmed Linda McMahon as Education Secretary.Show Notes:Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8Support victims of the fire – votesaveamerica.com/reliefWhat A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
President Trump addresses a joint session of Congress tonight, after igniting a trade war with Canada, Mexico and China and cutting off military aid to Ukraine. Some Democrats in Congress say they will boycott the speech, to protest what they call President Trump's "destruction of the state of the union.” One local progressive Democrat, Oakland Congresswoman Lateefah Simon, has been tabbed to deliver the Working Families Party response to the presidential address, though the official Democratic response is coming from Michigan Senator Elissa Slotkin. President Trump is expected to defend, or probably more accurately considering this is Trump, trumpet his tariff policy, his split with Ukraine, and Elon Musk's systematic dismantling of the federal bureaucracy. For more, KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart and KCBS political reporter Doug Sovern spoke with David McCuan, political science professor at Sonoma State University.

New York Working Families Party Co-Chairs Jasmine Gripper and Ana Maria Archila returned to the show to discuss how the progressive group is approaching the 2025 New York City mayoral race, lessons learned from 2021, ranked-choice voting, and more. (Ep 482)
We started this season by asking what's the best way to create real change - inside or outside of the established system? But sometimes it feels like the systems we're trying to improve are just too entrenched; it can be hard to imagine any approach being successful. And there might not be anyplace where that feels more true than in our politics. But Jennifer Knox, the National Director of Organizing and Tech for the Working Families Party doesn't believe we have to be stuck with the system we have. WFP is a third party that recruits and runs their own candidates. But they're also an activist organization that advocates for election reforms and supports major party candidates when they see it as the most effective path for change. In a sense, the Working Families Party is both outside and inside the system. And what's more, they're at the forefront of using better tech and better data to do the one thing that really matters in any election - win. We talk about balancing sweeping change with practical realities, Fusion Tickets, Ranked Choice Voting and how WFP responded when the major parties blocked their access to the main voter data platform — naturally, they built their very own from the ground up. Most of us can't imagine a day when we'll have more than two political parties in the U.S… but after this conversation with Jennifer, you just might change your mind. For more, check out Jennifer...

This week's bonus show features Part II of our conversation with psychiatrist and bestselling author Dr. Bandy Lee. We dive into the phenomenon of “Trump contagion,” strategies for handling MAGA cultists in your life (including how to respond if harassed in public), whether Trump is the Antichrist (spoiler: he is!), and whether Trump staged the recent assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. This week's show also answers a pressing question from a listener. Democracy Defender Patreon supporter Melissa asks: “If you or anyone else has any good reads to recommend on the Green Party and its origins, would love to read it as they are clearly now a Kremlin owned and operated effort to divide and conquer the left.” Melissa, we've got you covered! Check out our Jill Stein Voter Guide Super Special. If you know someone considering a vote for Jill Stein, share this special episode highlighting her troubling track record of hypocrisy. Despite being labeled a “peace candidate,” Jill Stein is a multimillionaire profiting from investments in the military-industrial complexand fossil fuels. Interestingly, the European Green Party has called for Jill Stein to withdraw from the race and endorse Kamala Harris, stating: “With wars raging and authoritarianism on the rise, Europe needs Kamala Harris as President of the United States—a reliable partner who can take urgent action on the climate crisis and foster a just, sustainable peace in the Middle East.” The European Green family, which consists of Green parties across Europe, has emphasized that their values starkly contrast with those of Jill Stein's (fake) Green Party. In their statement, they criticized the US Greens for their connections to authoritarian leaders and diverging policies, particularly regarding Russia's genocidal invasion of Ukraine.

Dateline New Haven: Working Families Party's Sarah Ganong by WNHH Community Radio
Are you a voter in New York City or know someone who is? We need your voice! Indicted Mayor Eric Adams—who, like Trump, also loves foreign bribes—pushed through ballot measures two through six that centralize more power in the mayor's office. This consolidation risk comes at a time when we must remain vigilant against rising autocracy, especially given New York's rich history as a sanctuary for resistance, from the abolitionist movement to standing up to Trump. Be sure to vote YES on ballot measure one, which enshrines reproductice healthcare, LGBTQ rights, and more in our state constitution, and vote NO on ballot measures two to six. To help us navigate Adams' gaslighting and strategize ways to overcome America's oligarchy crisis is Jasmine Gripper, co-state director of the New York Working Families Party. Before you head to the polls, don't miss this important interview! Be sure to vote along the Working Families Party line, especially since disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo raised the threshold for third parties to appear on the ballot. Interested in joining or starting a Working Families Party chapter in your state? Visit their website at workingfamilies.org for more information.

But first they speak with Peter Shamshiri, or Law Boy on Twitter, co-host of If Books Could Kill & the 5-4 Podcast, to discuss the recent decisions handed down by the Supreme Court, and what to expect with the decisions still yet to come. Sam and Emma run through updates on Julian Assange's plea deal, today's primaries, Israeli military violence, Biden's Student Loan plan, Louisiana's education reform, Texas' abortion ban, Infowars, and the post-IRA US economy, also diving into George Latimer's appearance on CNN to blame Jamaal Bowman for his wild ethnic insensitivities. Peter Shamshiri then joins, tackling what to expect from the last couple weeks of this SCOTUS term and touching on the ever-(Juris)prudent Alito-Thomas relationship. Next, Peter walks Sam and Emma through the various major decisions that have come out of the Court in recent weeks, first looking to Moore v. US' narrow address of tax law, what it means for the future of a wealth tax, and what (if any) pathway exists to get around this conservative court's absurd requirements for the federal government, also looking to US v. Rahimi role in cleaning up the mess the Court set for themselves two years prior with NY State Rifle & Pistol Assn., Inc. v. Bruen's requirement that gun regulations be consistent with the “nation's historical tradition” of 2A regulations, and why this entire fiasco is a perfect representation of the problems with this SCOTUS' reactionary tendencies and pseudo-originalism. After briefly assessing a final decision in State Dept. v. Muñoz, and how it may fit into a future attack on marriage equality, Shamshiri, Sam, and Emma wrap up the interview by pondering the future of this Court under a theoretical second Biden term. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch a former head of the Shin Bet unpack the root of Israeli insecurity in their occupation of Gaza, Van Jones compares anti-settlement protesters to pogroms and Keffiyehs to Confederate Flags, and the MR team touches on (totally unrelated) the rise of actual violence against Muslims in the US. John from San Antonio provides some primary previews, Real America's Voice, CNN, and Fox preview the absurd narratives heading into Thursday's presidential debate, and Scatt Walsh talks homosexuality. Elijah from Tennessee discusses the pervasion of Nazism in gaming, Neil from San Francisco on Big Tech and the wealthy's eviction of the working class, and Kowalski gives a long-awaited Ag Report, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with John Ganz, writer of the Unpopular Front newsletter on SubStack, to discuss his recent book When the Clock Broke: Con Men, Conspiracists, and How America Cracked Up in the Early 1990s. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Netanyahu's rejection of (supposedly) his own peace plan, Israel's pivot to Lebanon, another State Department resignation over Biden's Gaza policy, this week's primaries, Biden's polling numbers, the Supreme Court's agenda, flight attendant labor action, and DeSantis' vetoing of all state arts grants, before parsing through some stories that help explain who George Latimer, primary opponent to Jamaal Bowman, really is. John Ganz then joins, diving right into his metaphor of the broken clock, inspired by the right-wing's 1990s movement to “break the clock” of social democracy and Francis Fukuyama's concept of the Neoliberal consensus as the “end of history,” and how it provides a lens into the evolution of the far-right GOP we see today. Ganz then walks through some of the major players in the end of conservatism as we knew it, including the GOP establishment's rejection (and the voters' embrace) of KKK Grand Wizard David Duke, the shortcomings of George H. W. Bush's establishment centrism, and the fore-knowledge of libertarian Pat Buchanan, who would go on to serve as a central rhetorical influence for the presidential campaign of one Donald Trump. Expanding on this, John, Sam, and Emma explore how this era saw the conservative establishment begin to embrace the talk-show culture-war populism of Rush Limbaugh, which, alongside Bill Clinton's elitism and assimilation to Reagan economics, allowed for the GOP to somehow frame its anti-democratic and anti-working class policies as an anti-elitist anti-establishment agenda. After diving a little deeper into the right wing's ability (internationally) to frame itself as the ideology for-the-people over the first two decades of the 21st Century, Ganz touches on Biden's presidency as a continuation of the left wing's inability to progress its (supposedly progressive) politics, wrapping up the interview with a brief assessment of the future of the US' two political parties post-Trump and Biden. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Will Cain try to comprehend Patrick Bet-David's genius value-taintment, executive pill-mill Dr. Ronny Jackson suddenly has a problem with drugged-up presidents, and Donald Trump has something to say about boats and sharks… we just can't figure out what it is. Corey from South Carolina discusses a GOP fundraising attempt at a Juneteenth celebration, Matt from San Diego explores money in politics, and Louisiana's Governor attempts to defend LA's new 10-Commandments commandment for what is perhaps the worst school system in the US, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma and the MR Crew break down the biggest headlines of the day. Then, they're joined by comedian Matt Lieb, co-host of the Bad Hasbara podcast! First, Emma runs through updates on the Supreme Court's upholding of the right to seize arms from domestic abusers, the continued slowwalking of Trump's documents case, Armenia's recognition of Palestinian statehood, Israel's handing of West Bank authority over to settlers, the charges against Pro-Palestine Columbia protesters, the ADL's falling legitimacy, Trump-Biden polling, the Saudi role in 9/11, climate change activism, and authoritarian alliances, before tackling the GOP's odd framing tactic for the first presidential debate. Next, she parses through some recent polling out of Emerson showing Biden behind in every swing state – even where Democrats are dominating the polling in other races – Louisiana's recent legislation mandating the Ten Commandments be displayed in schools, and Michigan residents' ongoing fight against the removal of in-person visitation for inmates. After diving into the developing story around Israel's continued empowerment of violent settler factions in the West Bank, Emma is joined by Matt Lieb as he touches on the definition of “Hasbara” (Israeli propaganda), and his relationship to zionist indoctrination. Lieb walks through the story of his birthright trip, the hypocrisy of Israel's claim to Jewish safety, and the absurd lengths that Zionists will go to with their Hasbara. And in the Fun Half: Emma watches Rep. Dean Phillips' painful response to “do Palestinian lives not matter?”, and explores what people think Israel's motives are (and what Israel willfully admits it is), before unpacking Dave Rubin's foray into sports as a part of the “Caitlin Clark is a victim of anti-white racism” bandwagon, plus, your IMs!

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Joanna Wuest, assistant professor of politics at Mount Holyoke College and author of the book Born This Way: Science, Citizenship, and Inequality in the American LGBTQ+ Movement, to discuss her recent piece in Jacobin entitled "The Best Way to Secure LGBTQ Rights: Unions." Then, she speaks with David Broder, historian and Europe editor at Jacobin, author of Mussolini's Grandchildren: Fascism in Contemporary Italy, to discuss the recent EU elections, and the upcoming elections in the UK and France. First, Emma runs through updates on stalling ceasefire talks, Israel's continuing aggression in Gaza and elsewhere, some surprisingly solid SCOTUS decisions, Congressional action, RFK's floundering candidacy, serious global warming, growing union support in the US, and Louisiana's Ten Commandments-Commandment for school classrooms, also parsing through the recent UNHRC report on the crimes of war, crimes against humanity, and crimes of extermination, gender and sexual-based violence, and use of starvation and collective punishment. Professor Joanna Wuest then joins, diving right into the inspiring queer advocacy work coming from the new generation of union leaders, before stepping back to tackle the (multi-decades) long standing relationship between labor and queer rights, with unions providing much stronger protections from discrimination and important economic security where the US government failed to do so. After touching on the deep history of the relationship between anti-LGBTQ scapegoating of educators, and where Ron DeSantis' “Don't Say Gay” policy stands within that context, Professor Wuest and Emma wrap up with the important role queer folks have played in the major Starbucks unionization push over the last few years. David Broder then walks Emma through what the EU Parliament actually is and does (not much), and contextualizes the broader results of the recent round of elections, before parsing through the more worrying results out of France and Germany, which saw strong gains from the far-right RN (of Marine Le Pen) and AfD. Expanding on the France of it all, Broder tackles French PM Macron's absurd decision to respond to the right-wing gains by calling a snap national election, what it tells us about liberals' continued preference of the far-right over the progressive left, and what it could mean for the future of Le Pen's party, using Italy's Giorgia Meloni as a parallel to Le Pen's seeming liberal-appeasing-pivot to more conventional, pro-establishment politics. After discussing the more radical brand of fascism coming out of Germany's AfD, Emma and Broder wrap up with a brief assessment of the state of the left in Europe, and the ongoing failure of the retreat to the center (as seen in the UK). And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton as they admire some timely crowd work, watch Tim Pool complaint about Nick Fuentes tainting white nationalism with his anti-Israel views, and listen to Glenn Greenwald and Tucker Carlson pretend to be the first people ever to point out the absurdity of anti-BDS laws. Kerry from New York on Tim Pool, Miguel from Philly on Joe Biden, and the Burgumentum continues! Lilith from Washington on the role of Zionism in a two-state solution, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Elie Mystal, justice correspondent and columnist at The Nation, to discuss the recent rulings by the Supreme Court and what is still to come. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Israel's foreknowledge of Hamas' 10/7 attack, US military aid to Israel, today's primaries, a new path to citizenship, bump stock legislation, IRS policy, Adobe's DOJ problem, FEMA, and Philly's falling murder rates, before parsing a little deeper through the new reports on Israel's 3-week heads-up on Hamas' terror attack last October. Elie Mystal then joins, diving right into the diligent delays in SCOTUS' refusal to take on Trump's immunity case as a perfect example of the differing approaches to a justice's reign between the conservatives and the liberals, with the former insistent on getting what they want, getting paid, and getting out of there, while the latter gets hung up in symbols and institutionalism. Mystal then looks to the recent Supreme Court decision to strike down the Trump-era ban on bump stocks, parsing through Justice Thomas' decision to weigh the legality from the perspective of the gun, rather than the shooter, before briefly running through SCOTUS' recent rejection of a challenge to Mifepristone, and what it can teach us about where this far-right Court is looking next. Wrapping up, Elie, Sam, and Emma unpack the future of the Supreme Court's attacks on the Chevron Doctrine and the administrative state. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Mehdi Hasan perfectly illustrate the belligerent ignorance of Zionists, Joe Biden takes on the big threat to his presidency (TikTok zoomers), and the MR Crew assesses Biden's major new immigration plan. Sean from Washington tackles the Supreme Court's bump stock-ban-ban, Ritchie Torres crowns himself king of the Jews, Hussain from LA explores the incredible work of student protesters at UCLA, and Candace Owens unpacks why World War 2 was a failure for the US, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam & Emma speak with Astra Taylor, writer, documentarian, & co-founder of the Debt Collective, and Leah Hunt-Hendrix, co-founder of Way to Win & the philanthropy network Solidaire, to discuss their recent book Solidarity: The Past, Present, and Future of a World-Changing Idea. First, they run through updates on Israel's genocide in Gaza, skyrocketing executive pay in the US, the electoral impact of Trump's conviction, the GOP's $895B culture war defense bill, Maryland's marijuana pardons, AIPAC's $20 Million investment in George Latimer, the threat to public health that is Social Media, and Alex Jones' legal woes, before parsing through Donald Trump's continued insistence that he is the most mentally fit President of all time (certified by the guy that ran his presidential pill mill). Astra Taylor and Leah Hunt-Hendrix then join, diving right into the idea of “solidarity” as a material concept of social cohesion, with roots in the holding of a common debt between Roman farmers, and as a central tenant in the development of France's welfare state during the Industrial Revolution. Expanding on this, Taylor and Hunt-Hendrix unpack the role self-interest plays alongside solidarity, painting a distinction between the strict divisions of reactionary solidarities (e.g. White Supremacy, ruling class) and the malleable identity of transformational solidarity as they demonstrated the failure of “zero-sum” thinking, and how transformational solidarity extends the benefits of social progress to all. Next, Astra, Leah, Sam, and Emma have an extensive conversation on the “Scam” of philanthropy, from how it promotes movement capture by major capitalist donors to it's effective purpose as a tax haven for the wealthy, before they wrap up the interview with the role of the state in undermining the ability to foster solidarity, and how its power can just as well be used to promote it. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch George Latimer do the classic liberal tap-dance around his unconditional support for Israel's genocide, parse through Israel's crystal-clear messaging on their goal of collective punishment, and talk with Jose from LA about the problems of Market Socialism.

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Judd Legum, proprietor of the Popular Information newsletter on SubStack, to discuss his recent piece entitled “Feds raid corporate landlord, escalating nationwide criminal probe of rent increases.” Then, he speaks with Usamah Andrabi, communications director & spokesperson for Justice Democrats, to discuss Rep. Jamaal Bowman's upcoming primary in New York and AIPAC's spending efforts against the Squad. First, Sam runs through updates on the UN's ceasefire proposal, continuing carnage in Gaza, GOP primary results, the conviction of Hunter Biden, slowing inflation rates, the US' disregard for Leahy law, more Alito-family leaks, North Carolina's mask ban, the permeation of microplastics, and Chiquita's liability for paramilitary action in Columbia, before watching the GOP attempt to spin the Hunter Biden conviction as yet ANOTHER attack on Donald Trump. Judd Legum then joins, diving right into the story, originally broken by ProPublica a few years ago, of RealPage's rent-pricing algorithm for landlords, and how the prevalent usage of RealPage in housing markets allows corporate landlords to eschew direct conspiracy yet reap all the benefits of collusion, from raised and fixed rents to artificial market constraints. After unpacking some of the finer elements of RealPage's “property management” software, Legum looks to the development of multiple major lawsuits against RealPage, including class-action suits in Atlanta and DC, unpacks the evidence that has come through discovery, and tackles the FBI's recent raid of a corporate landlord's offices in a major development to a criminal anti-trust case against RealPage, before wrapping up with a brief assessment of landlord liability in a federal criminal case. Usamah Andrabi then joins, jumping right into the incredibly Manchin-esque campaign of conservative “Democrat” George Latimer, and how his AIPAC-funded run to unseat Jamaal Bowman has gone well beyond just unconditional support for Israel, with AIPAC's pro-Trump funders pushing a full rejection of Bowman's progressivism. After expanding on the astoundingly bigoted and anti-democratic campaign being run by Latimer, Andrabi and Sam tackle the need for Democrats to step up for their colleagues in the face of overwhelming amounts of right-wing money, and what to make of the recent Emerson poll showing a major gap between the two candidates, before touching on what those of us outside of New York can do to help. And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks the sustained anti-PC delirium in comedy, aided by Julia Louis-Dreyfus' recent response to Seinfeld's anti-woke ramblings, Brian from LA tackles the Daily Wire's new animated show and the arrested development of right-wing humor, and Maryellen from Newark explores the sale of West Bank properties in the US. Sam also unpacks dropping inflation rates with little-to-no impact on the continuing housing crisis, Kett from Portland gives some timely Latimer gossip, the Alito-family leaks keep coming, and Morning Joe has a guest on to ponder the validity of civilian deaths in Gaza, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, Sam and Emma discuss the recent candidate forum between Rep. Jamaal Bowman & Westchester County Executive George Latimer, where Latimer made the claim that Rep. Bowman's constituencies were in Dearborn, Michigan and San Francisco, as opposed to the Bronx and Westchester. Then, they discuss the recent ceasefire resolution that passed through the United Nations (UN), and the strange, convoluted game of telephone that high ranking Biden administration officials like Secretary Blinken are playing when it comes to Hamas accepting a ceasefire deal (reports are that they've "said" they amenable to it) and Israel accepting a ceasefire deal (Netanyahu has not "said" that he's amenable to it; Blinken says it's the position of the Israeli government. They then react to some of the crime data coming from an FBI report, showing plummeting rates of violent crime, before getting into the bombshell undercover reporting by extraordinaire Lauren Windsor, who went undercover at a Supreme Court Historical Society event, speaking with Chief Justice Roberts (relatively normal), Justice Alito (more unhinged), and Justice Alito's, wife Martha Ann (the most insane conversation you'll ever hear). And in the Fun Half, the MR Crew discuss JD Vance's coyness around his position in the Trump veepstakes, despite being asked for documents and...whether he's committed any crimes or things of that nature (and that would be disqualifying, somehow)? They then react to Georgia congressional primary candidate and Jan-6th related convict Chuck Hand being asked a simple question about agricultural policy at a debate before introducing himself, completely ignoring the question, and walking off the stage. They then check in on Tim Pool waging the war on Christmas in...June, Steven Crowder and Nigel Farage having an idiot contest, and the...interesting mentions under a tweet from the account "AFPost" regarding polling showing less U.S. Jewish voters supporting Trump in 2024 as opposed to 2020. The "AF" standing for...America First can probably give you a good idea of the tenor of the replies to this tweet. (Hint: they're insanely anti-Semitic). Plus, your calls & IM's!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Matt Duss, executive vice president at the Center for International Policy, to discuss the recent events from the weekend in Israel, Palestine, & foreign policy. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Macron's call for snap elections in France, Israel's mass slaughter of Palestinians in the freeing of four hostages, UC's academic worker strike, Biden's newest Executive Order on immigration, Trump-Biden polling, social media, and Bob Menendez legal troubles, before diving into Marjorie Taylor Greene's parallel between two people definitely criminally convicted by federal governments, Donald Trump and Jesus Christ. Matt Duss then joins, diving right into Biden's recent decision to overshadow Trump's conviction with an announcement of supposed ongoing ceasefire negotiations of Israel's design, and how these talks inevitably fell into the same pattern of Netanyahu taking drastic action to prove bad faith to push Palestinian actors to kill the deal, unpacking why Biden is so scared of actually holding Israel to account, and touching on the major impact the continuation of this conflict is having on the already-precarious standing of US legitimacy in the Middle East. Returning to the ceasefire document, Duss walks through the important step toward peace this proposal represents, with contents that would actually require Biden (and others) to confront the Israeli government's illegal occupation and the future of Palestinian statehood, before shifting to a brief conversation on domestic politics in Israel, from public opinion on the war to the power of Netanyahu's far-right coalition, and touch on the recent Nuseirat Massacre and its further undermining of the humanitarian effort in Gaza. After reflecting on the Biden Administration's failures with the Iran Nuclear Deal, Matt, Sam, and Emma wrap up with a brief assessment of the rising threat of fascism in Europe, and the slight containment of fascism in India. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive into the (minimal) coverage of Israel's internment camp and the horrors faced by Palestinian detainees, Sean from Spain explores various organizing efforts, and Kenny from Berkeley expands on the UC school system's attempt to use California's conservative courts to break the backs of its academic workers. Seb Gorka and guest discuss how very relatable they (and Donald Trump) are to the working class and Don from New Jersey on escalating dissent against US support for genocide in Gaza. Donald Trump goes teleprompter-free and hits his audience with some raw truths, like “I don't pay contractors,” Steve Bannon discusses the political lawfare being exercised against him, and Kristi Noem gets protective against Dana Bash, 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!
