    The Attack of the Democratic Socialists! And Zine Crimes w/ Lex McMenamin (Ep 338)

    Three DSA candidates just won their primaries in New York — and the bipartisan meltdown has been spectacular. We break down why everyone from Sean Hannity, to Bill Maher to Jon Favreau is personally offended by the likes of Darializa Chevalier, the Afro-Latina UAW member who just became the new AOC. Then, movement-building reporter Lex McMenamin joins to talk about the Prairieland Protestors — eight activists sentenced to between 50 and 100 years in prison for providing “material support to terrorists,” plus one man who wasn't even at the protest but was convicted for moving boxes of zines! We’ll discuss what the case means for the criminalization of protest under the Trump administration as well as the Supreme Court's ruling this week upholding discrimination against transgender people in sports.

    Are Americans Hooked on Conspiracy Theories? *Teaser* w/ Anna Merlan

    This is a portion of an exclusive member-conversation with Anna Merlan. To access it, become a member on Patreon. Did you know that 'Hanta' virus in Hebrew means 'scam'? Well it doesn't. IT DOES NOT. Chances are if you're at all on the internet you've been fooled by or even inadvertently spread some kind of conspiracy theory. Some are harmless and hilarious and others lead to RFK Jr. as our HHS secretary.  They discuss how the Epstein file release has created a whole new crop of conspiracy theorists, founded on a whole lot of damning evidence (!) and why the United States has the perfect conditions for conspiracies to run rampant: little faith in government, expensive healthcare system, and an atomized country where individualism reigns over the collective. It's part of what led to the COVID-19 conspiracy theories and the turbocharging of the anti-vax movement.  Anna explains how successful RFK Jr. was at capitalizing on the pandemic and the active health and scientific harm that he's doing now that he and a bunch of his fellow cranks are in power. What's their obsession with autism and how is it incredibly dangerous? Plus what's the 'missing scientists' conspiracy theory and the Hantavirus conspiracy theory, and how are people gaining massive followings on social media spreading these batshit crazy ideas?

    The Class War Is Here *TEASER* with Saba Waheed

    Saba and Francesca discuss how rampant wage theft is finally being called such, and why the myth of immigrants taking jobs ignores how much the U.S. has always relied on cheap labor. Then, how did we collectively let the unregulated gig economy metastasize into full-blown automation and now AI. Not bringing down the hammer on Uber, Lyft and AirBnb have led to things like Waymo and Coco delivery robots. It’s like the elites want a revolution?  So how can unions better-pressure politicians into making policy that centers workers’ rights? And how will the change require ALL OF US to take some risks and get into the streets.     *** Become a patron to hear the full conversation.

    U.S. Spins Iran Loss And The Genocide Isn’t Over w/ Josh Greene & Peter Beinart (Ep 336)

    Nancy Mace is out, the DOJ is investigating Gavin Newsom for being hotter than JD Vance, and Elon Musk is now the world's first trillionaire — built largely on government contracts he's spent his career trying to take away from everyone else. Then, political commentator and filmmaker Josh Greene joins to (ironically) celebrate Elon Musk’s totally deserved new trillionaire status, along with (unironically) enjoying how great Iran is doing on the soccer field and at the negotiating table. MoU anyone? Then, journalist and author Peter Beinart joins to discuss the US-Iran deal, what the war on Iran has done to the broader question of Palestinian rights, and the strange ideological company progressives now share with Tucker Carlson in opposing Israel's conduct. We also discuss his book Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza — his argument that American Jews must reject a narrative of permanent victimhood that has enabled the community to look away from Palestinian suffering, and what a new story might actually look like. Featuring: Josh Greene, political commentator, filmmaker, and host of Progressive Pulsehttps://www.instagram.com/joshtheprogressive/https://joshtheprogressive.substack.com Peter Beinart, journalist and Editor-at-Large at Jewish Currentshttps://beinartnotebook.substack.com Buy Peter's book: https://bookshop.org/p/books/being-jewish-after-the-destruction-of-gaza-a-reckoning-peter-beinart/21836185 Have you ever wanted to join the Frantifa?
