2395 - Casual Friday! w/ Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; Ryan Grim 12/20/2024

2395 - Casual Friday! w/ Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; Ryan Grim It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with , reporter at and co-founder of co-host of , to round up the week in news before the holidays. First, Sam and Emma take a look at the spending fight on Capitol Hill after House Republicans failed to pass a continuing resolution to keep the government open. They take a look at CNN's Kaitlan Collins trying to figure out how New York Rep. Mike Lawler can blame House Republicans' failure to pass a spending bill on...Democrats. Then, they're joined by Rep. Ocasio-Cortez as she gives her breakdown of what is happening in the spending fight on the ground on the Hill, and how Elon Musk essentially tanked all forward progress with his posts on Twitter. Heading into a broader discussion, AOC discusses the House Oversight Committee race for ranking member, how she is interpreting that in terms of progress, and she understands her motivations and advocacies as someone steeped in the process of mass movements while representing such an institutional body in Congress. She ends the conversation by framing losses (both in the Oversight Committee and in November) as ones that should not always be seen as fully definitional and declarative of a struggle being completely lost, and take what slight progress they represent as motivation and the impetus to continue to fight for what she, and we, believe in. Then, Ryan Grim joins the program to react to some of AOC's comments, as well as to discuss the fast track to oligarchy this country is on seeing that Elon Musk basically dictated a continuing resolution bill not pass in Congress. Sam, Emma, and Ryan discuss the trajectory they think the Musk/Trump relationship may take and what that would like (potentially catastrophic), and what kind of implications and knock-on effects shutting the government down for the rest of Trump's transition would have. They then discuss how the Democratic Party appears to be a ship without a rudder, the genuine shock that some rank-and-file members got at AOC's showing for the Oversight Committee ranking member floor vote, and the...concerning details that came out in the Wall Street Journal's bombshell reporting on President Biden's functionality during his entire presidency. And in the Fun Half, Sam, Emma, and the MR Crew take a look at the insane police escort Luigi Mangione received after being extradited to New York, before taking a look at friend of the show Jamie Peck sparring with Chris Cuomo as to the strong, cathartic reaction a large number of people are having to the killing of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. They then check in on Joe Scarborough's attempt to martyr Liz Cheney, Tim Pool stressing out HARD that the Democratic Party may be attempting to create multiple Hasan Pikers, and end on a Majority Report holiday tradition: revisiting when Sam went on CNN to fight for the war on Christmas.

2394 - Trudeau On The Ropes; US Sanctions & The War Machine w/ Luke Savage, Jeff Stein 12/19/2024

2394 - Trudeau On The Ropes; US Sanctions & The War Machine w/ Luke Savage, Jeff Stein It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with writer , writer based in Toronto, author of , to discuss the current state of Canadian politics. Then, she speaks with , White House economics reporter at , to discuss his recent multi-part series on economic sanctions for the Post entitled First, Emma runs through updates on the GOP’s continuing dysfunction over their spending bill, Trump’s prosecution in Georgia, the Wall Street Journal’s major report on Biden staffers’ extensive work to downplay and hide the state of Biden’s mental decline since 2019, the nomination of Pete Hegseth, Amazon teamsters’ strike, South Carolina’s attack on Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood, Israeli’s continuing offensives in Lebanon and Gaza, the repatriation of the final inmates in Guantanamo Bay, and the confirmed appearance Bird Flu in the US, before diving a little deeper into “President Musk’s” public pressure campaign to get GOP Congresspeople in line with his spending plan. Luke Savage then joins, diving right into the dwindling support for Trudeau’s administration in the wake of a weak, nationalist-oriented response to Trump’s threat of tariffs against Canada, unpacking the growing dissent from within his coalition before Savage and Emma briefly contrast his response to Trump’s threats with that from the US’ other neighbor-under-threat in Mexico’s President Sheinbaum. Stepping back, Luke examines the rise and fall of Trudeau as the leader of the Liberal Party in Canada, coming to power by leading a major win in 2015 and becoming a hyper-public anti-Trump resistance figure in the process, only for growing economic issues coming out of the COVID-19 Pandemic alongside a poor choice by Trudeau to call for snap elections in 2021 putting the Liberal Party in an insecure situation and forcing a deal with the NDP social democrats. Moving forward in the story, Savage walks Emma through the lingering struggles Liberals have faced in the wake of this deal, with their (and Trudeau’s, in particular) refusal to acknowledge the ongoing cost of living crisis and the failures of their economic agenda significantly dragging down NDP’s public standing to the point of pulling out of the deal this past September, issues capitalized on by a Conservative Party that is, at the bare minimum, willing to recognize the issues facing the Canadian electorate. After expanding on the role of Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, his success in hiding his unpopular faux-populist crypto-libertarianism behind direct, issues-based communication, and the pretty clear parallels with Biden and Democrats’ recent failures in the 2024 election, Savage wraps up by tackling Canada’s dearth of an actual system to remove someone like Trudeau from power, and how this situation could (and is likely to) develop. Jeff Stein then joins, jumping right into his extensive research at the Washington Post into the explosion of the role of sanctions in US foreign policy, and the vast material impact they have on local populations, first outlining how this policy proliferated in the wake of the serious backlash to US military intervention in Iraq and Afghanistan – with Joe Biden taking Trump’s expansion of the sanction regime to an entirely new level after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – and how it aligns with the increasing power of the executive branch. Stepping back, Stein walks Emma through the role sanctions play in avoiding both military AND diplomatic intervention on the global stage, despite minimal evidence of their efficacy, and the growing worry inside of government of their long-term impacts with limited short-term benefits, before they wrap up with the myriad material issues that have arisen from the expansion of the US sanction regime, with devastating effects on the abused and exploited populations that these sanctions are ostensibly issued in response to, alongside the (less devastating) unforeseen financial costs to US taxpayers. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Matt Binder as they do a deep dive into the recent Wall Street Journal report tracing Biden’s staffers’ extensive efforts – beginning in 2019 – to hide and disguise Biden’s mental decline from the public, before touching on the continuing cult of senility around Biden. A Jersey caller unpacks breaking through the media’s commitment to Democratic leadership, Alex from Oakland unpacks Biden’s plan to encourage AI data centers on federal land, and the MR Crew explores the NYPD’s ongoing crackdown on Amazon teamsters’ labor action. Timothee Chalamet pitches Theo Von on affordable housing in NYC, plus, your calls and IMs!

2393 - Union Made Parental Leave & Democrats As A Rudderless Ship w/ Madi Oates & Michelle Eisen; David Dayen 12/18/2024

2393 - Union Made Parental Leave & Democrats As A Rudderless Ship w/ Madi Oates & Michelle Eisen; David Dayen It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Madi Oates, shift supervisor and bargaining delegate for , based in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and , organizing member of SWU, to discuss Starbucks recent update to its parental leave policy. And then, Sam is joined by , executive editor at and co-host of the Organized Money , to discuss the prospects of the Democratic Party going into 2025 and beyond. First, Sam runs through updates on the GOP’s continuing resolution, the Matt Gaetz ethics report, the Fed’s rate cuts, Senate judicial confirmation, Lina Khan’s FTC, Luigi Mangione, Palestinians’ and Palestinian-Americans’ suit against the State Department, Trump’s legal woes, Amazon labor action, and the US’ TikTok ban, also expanding on the GOP infighting around the continuing resolution and Mike Johnson’s message to unelected billionaire bureaucrats Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy. Madi Oates and Michelle Eisen then join as they dive right into the major victory won by Starbucks Workers United in securing the same level of paid parental leave for Starbucks’ workers as it provides for its executives, tackling the major exploitation and effort put on the company’s pregnant workers and unpacking the various policy benefits that this negotiation has won. Stepping back, Eisen and Oates paint a picture of the major progress SWU has had in expanding its US presence, organizing some 5% of stores nationally, and the major progress they’ve made in securing rights and fair wages for their members, before looking forward to the future of this fight, as Starbucks’ myriad open unfair labor practice cases and lack of a clear economic proposal come into their crosshairs. David Dayen then joins, first touching on the coalescence of a rudderless Biden Administration with a floundering Democratic Party that seems incapable of working as an opposition party, dissecting the overlap of these issues in the role the party’s gerontocratic class putting their egos and ideological commitments over the need for the party to readapt to a younger electorate with vastly evolved concerns. Expanding on this, Dayen and Sam zero in on the role Nancy Pelosi has played in legitimizing this cling to power (even amid failure), with her recent obstruction of AOC’s bid for Dem chair of the Congressional Oversight Committee serving as a key example of her refusal to back down from dictating a party for which she is no longer Minority Leader. Wrapping up, they assess the problem of Democrats’ utter dearth of a plan for acting as an organized opposition to Trump, and whether internal dissent in the party will be able to push leadership back on track. And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks Trump’s plan to privatize the USPS, with some helpful confusion added by a member of the TimCast team, before tackling RFK Jr’s ongoing pivot right on abortion. Sean Hannity is suddenly pro-Europe, Kowalski from Nebraska helps us understand why food in the US is unhealthier than in Europe (freedom… and deregulation), and the DOGE caucus sets their sites on Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Hillary from Brooklyn helps us understand the NYPD’s attempt to charge Luigi Mangione with terrorism, and John from San Antonio parses through the turnout and demographic numbers for the 2024 election, plus, your calls and IMs!

2392 - AOC, RFK Jr. & Archaeology As A Weapon In The West Bank w/ Jasper Nathaniel 12/17/2024

2392 - AOC, RFK Jr. & Archaeology As A Weapon In The West Bank w/ Jasper Nathaniel It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with , writer of the Infinite Jaz on SubStack, to discuss his recent piece in The Drift magazine entitled First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the GOP’s continuing struggle to get a continuing resolution, Pelosi blocking AOC’s run for Oversight chair, the Senate’s National Defense Authorization Act, Ukraine’s bombing of Russia’s chemical weapons chief, TikTok’s Supreme Court fight, Trump’s EV fight, RFK’s meeting with Senators, Trudeau’s shakey administration, US wealth inequality, and Josh Hawley’s CTC for the middle- and upper-classes, before diving a little deeper into Nancy Pelosi’s (notably no longer a member of party leadership) torpedoing of AOC’s bid to be Dem chair on the Congressional Oversight Committee, and touching on Trump’s attempt to run cover for his health and safety-related administrative choices and their rabid anti-vax beliefs. Jasper Nathaniel then joins, diving right into the concept of “Judea and Samaria” that has been advanced recently by American zionists like Bill Clinton and Mike Huckabee, unpacking its deep history as the zionist term for the West Bank, and how that relates to a rapidly progressing agenda of Israeli annexation of the Palestinian West Bank, with Israeli finance minister Bezalel Smotricht recent transfer of power over the West Bank away from civil authority, and his use of antiquity law to expand Israeli control over the region. Stepping back, Nathaniel walks Sam and Emma through the historical relationship between archeology and the zionist colonization of Palestine, beginning with the British surveying of the region whilst under their control at the turn of the century, where they grounded their research within biblical terms, directly assigning any discoveries to Biblical passages and civilizations, a tactic directly picked up on by the burgeoning Zionist movement at the time, and employed as a hard science as they pushed their agenda of creating “facts on the ground” to legitimize their right to the land Palestinian had lived on for generations. Expanding on this story, Jasper tackles the continued abuse of archeology by the Zionist regime over the following few decades, with the 1967 border agreement immediately coming under violation by Israeli archeologists, before coming back to the present to unpack Israel’s utterly destructive approach to the genocide of Gaza in contrast with their slow, technocratic approach to slowly revoking the autonomy of various regions in the West Bank, tackling how this authority is grounded in much of the West Bank’s presence on supposedly “protected” archeological sites. Looking to the supposed “authority” that grounds Israel’s ongoing annexation of the West Bank, Nathaniel touches on the transferring of West Bank management from Israel’s Civil authority to their Archeological authority, before wrapping up with an extensive conversation on the overwhelming ubiquity – and banality – of violence against Palestinians in the West Bank, and the future of the project for Palestinian liberation under a second Trump Administration. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma tackle Trump’s recent comments on the relationship between vaccines and autism (and Fox’s unsurprising response), and watch CNN’s Michael Smerconish bemoan the lack of a public vigil for the recently murdered CEO of UnitedHealthcare, contrasting him with folks like John Lennon, George Floyd, and the victims of Kyle Rittenhouse. Mark Robinson reclaims the “Minisoldr” handle, MAGA freaks out over drone sightings, and Tim Pool has a boot to lick over Emma and Kyle Kulinski’s Joe Rogan comments, plus, your calls and IMs!

2391 - Reconciling Labor & Environmental Imperatives w/ Stefania Barca 12/16/2024

2391 - Reconciling Labor & Environmental Imperatives w/ Stefania Barca Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with , distinguished researcher at the University of Santiago de Compostela in Spain, to discuss her recent book . First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the GOP’s government shutdown, ABC’s inauguration plans, Social Security, Trump’s cabinet, Trump’s plan to privatize the post office, Syria’s changing political landscape, Gaza’s massive death toll, and McKinsey’s liability in Purdue Pharma’s opioid case, also touching on preparations for Trump’s authoritarianism and the centrist “No Labels” party’s struggles to not capitulate to the right. Dr. Stefania Barca, PhD, then joins, diving right into work on the broadening of “reproductive work” – a form of labor regarding social reproduction and the socializing, educational, and care work required for it – to include the need to cultivate and maintain a healthy environment for society to flourish sustainably. Stepping back, Barca unpacks the historical tension between labor and environmental movements, with the two being seen as in conflict between the interests of blue- and white-collar workers, respectively, despite that very tension being very prevalent within these specific movements themselves, expanding on that latter point by walking through the myriad strains of environmentalism – be it green capitalism, environmental justice, ecomodernism or degrowth – and how they approach concepts like consumption, labor transitions, production, and wealth inequality, with each taking on a different approach to the relationship between capitalism and the environment. After expanding on the true alignment of the crises of care and the environment, Stefania parses through the value of understanding this reproductive work – in both social and environmental contexts – as one worthy of financial compensation, from the value it directly provides society in its immediate provisions to the central role it can play in pushing a necessary labor shift away from industries directly associated with environmental decay toward ones that can build to a sustainable future. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma tackle the growing call for Biden to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment, unpack the coalescence of the GOP around alleged islamophobe, predator, abuser, and alcoholic Pete Hegseth’s nomination, and look to history in their response to Marc Andreessen’s call for an antithesis to FDR. Jimmy Dore responds to Peter Hotez’s critique of RFK Jr. by… blaming the existence of polio on the polio vaccine, plus, your calls and IMs!

2390 - Resisting Trump’s Scam Artist Agenda; The Myth Of “Right-Wing Populism” w/ Kyle Kulinski 12/13/2024

2390 - Resisting Trump’s Scam Artist Agenda; The Myth Of “Right-Wing Populism” w/ Kyle Kulinski It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with , co-host of the & , to round up the week in news. First, Emma runs through updates on growing famine in Gaza as winter nears, Israel’s land grab in Syria, Trump’s threat to Iran, Trump’s advisors, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Pelosi’s undermining of AOC’s Oversight committee bid, RFK’s newest vaccine objection (polio), Trump’s banking deregulation agenda, and Macron’s newest centrist PM, before watching Peter Thiel sputter through a defense of the US healthcare system and the (former) UnitedHealthcare CEO. Kyle Kulinski then joins as he reflects on Nancy Mace’s complex and intersectional relationship with the bathroom, Democrats’ willingness to capitulate to and embrace Trump’s fascist scapegoating of trans people and immigrants, and the importance of actually acknowledging your constituents’ issues in winning elections. Kyle and Emma also tackle the absurd narrative about Trump and the GOP’s right-wing populism, parsing particularly through the facade of Trump’s anti-war persona before touching on the pseudo-populism of RFK’s relationship with Big Pharma. Wrapping up, they unpack the state of “independent” media, the growing embrace of far-right lunacy as long as it comes with a billionaire’s backing, and the need for the Democratic party to look left for success. And in the Fun Half: Emma unpacks the tension around the humanitarian crisis in the US-backed Al-Hol detention center in Syria with Owen from LA, The Letterhack previews his show with Ronald Raygun tonight, and Juliet from Portland gives Emma a lesson in AGP. The MR Crew also covers the arrest of a Lakeland, Florida woman over saying “Delay, Deny, Depose. You people are next” after being denied healthcare and Sen. Blumenthall’s Musk suckup, also talking with Jackson in Colorado about media comprehension in the US. They also watch Daniel Penny aptly thank the fact that “someone” didn’t get hurt in his killing of Jordan Neely, and touch on the TYT’s floundering attempts to pivot right, plus, your calls and IMs!

2389 -Minneapolis Policing; Fight For Public Renewables w/ Michelle S. Phelps, Gabriel Hetland 12/12/2024

2389 -Minneapolis Policing; Fight For Public Renewables w/ Michelle S. Phelps, Gabriel Hetland It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Michelle Phelps, professor of sociology at the University of Minnesota, to discuss her recent book Then she speaks with , 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 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.

2388 - French Government Collapses; How Society Failed Jordan Neely w/ Cole Stangler, Katie Way 12/11/2024

2388 - French Government Collapses; How Society Failed Jordan Neely w/ Cole Stangler, Katie Way It's Hump Day! Emma speaks with , France-based journalist covering politics, housing, and labor, author of the book , to discuss the recent developments in French politics after a vote of no-confidence against Prime Minister Bernier. Then, she speaks with , writer & editor at , to discuss the recent acquittal of Daniel Penny. First, Emma runs through updates on Israel’s land grab in Syria and food blockade on northern Gaza, Syria’s interim leader, Luigi Mangione’s manifesto, Trump’s cabinet nominees, the Kroger-Albertsons merger, Saudi Arabia’s FIFA World Cup, and Gottheimer’s governor chances get wrapped, also watching Matthew Miller continue to obscure US support for Israel’s unhinged imperialism with a smirk. Cole Stangler then joins, first catching us up to date on France’s unraveling government since his last appearance, with Macron following through with his refusal to name a left-wing Prime Minister despite the New Popular Front’s (NFP) electoral victory this summer, instead naming Republican Michel Barnier in September, leading to months of a floundering, incompetent administration largely held hostage to the far-right until a successful no-confidence vote against Barnier this past week, forcing Macron, once again, to name a Prime Minister. After expanding on the non-Macron-aligned relevant parties involved, with Marine Le Pen’s National Rally on the far-right and a multi-party coalition between the Socialists, Greens, Communists, and Jean-Luc Melancon’s LFI, Stangler wraps up with the ideal candidates for the Prime Ministership from the left. Katie Way then walks Emma through the evolution and eventual decision in the acquittal of Daniel Penny over his killing of Jordan Neely on the NYC subway system, with the prosecution emphasizing the diagnosis of asphyxiation as the cause of death and Penny’s lack of remorse toward and consistent attacks against Neely during interviews, while the defense’s ultimately successful argument hinged on pinning his death on drug abuse and sickle cell disease – a tact often employed by cops, as seen with the murder of George Floyd – and spinning witness accounts and the coroner’s report as the result of “political pressure.” After expanding on the ultimate decision to acquit Penny, Way and Emma step back as they unpack the greater narrative built around this case, with many elites and people on the right coming to the defense of Penny with general anti-homeless and anti-immigrant fear-mongering, zeroing in particularly on Eric Adams’ and his Administration’s use of this story to bolster his police-driven plan to solve (jail) New York City’s unhoused problem (people), as they wrap up the interview with the growing frustration around safe-blue state Democratic Parties’ failure to provide progressive alternatives to conservative fear-mongering around crime and homelessness. And in the Fun Half: Emma unpacks the major optimism from the business community about Trump’s impending administration as she watches Lina Khan’s killer appearance with Hasan before watching Scott Jennings put his fascism on full display when addressing the acquittal of killer Daniel Penny and the charging of killer Luigi Mangione. The MR Crew also tackles Ana Kasparian’s “leaving the left” and Brett Cooper’s leaving the Daily Wire, and UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell lets loose on Elon Musk, plus, your IMs!

2387 - Assad’s Regime Falls; National Tenant Union Emerging? w/ Gregory Brew, Thomas Birmingham 12/10/2024

2387 - Assad’s Regime Falls; National Tenant Union Emerging? w/ Gregory Brew, Thomas Birmingham It's News Day Tuesday! Emma speaks with , analyst with the 's Energy, Climate, & Resources Team, to discuss the fluid situation in Syria now that rebels have taken control of Damascus. Then, she speaks with , reporter and intern at The Nation based in New Haven, to discuss his recent piece entitled 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.

2386 - The Path Forward For The Left w/ John Nichols 12/09/2024

2386 - The Path Forward For The Left w/ John Nichols Happy Monday! Sam speaks with , national affairs correspondent for , to discuss his recent interview with Sen. Bernie Sanders, and the paths forward he sees for the Left after the 2024 election. First, Emma runs through updates on the acquittal of Daniel Penny, the potential detaining of the United Healthcare CEO killer, the fall of Assad in Syria and the imperialist responses from Israel and the US, South Korean President Yoom, Trump’s pledge to pardon insurrectionists, and Trump’s developing cabinet, before parsing through Trump’s inhumane and unconstitutional plan to end birthright citizenship, and Democrats’ failure to prevent this threat. Then, John Nichols joins Sam as he dives right into his recent interview with Bernie Sanders, unpacking Bernie’s major takeaways from Democrats’ failure in the 2024 elections, from the need for a new way to communicate with a multi-racial, multi-ethnic working class to the imperative for Democrats to stand aside and let independent, working-class progressive candidates run without the burden of the party establishment weighing them down. After briefly expanding on the challenge of convincing the Democratic Party Brand to stop pushing the Democratic Party Brand, Nichols steps back to walk through the history of this tactic’s success on the left, playing a particularly prevalent role in bolstering FDR’s progressive coalition and the major progress they achieved. Next, John and Sam look to Bernie’s 2016 anti-oligarchy candidacy, exploring how Democrats’ failure to address that growing political inequality provided a path (twice) for Trump and the GOP (twice) to successfully stand as the party of money power and as anti-establishment, bolstered by the GOP’s messaging dominance (see: Elon Musk’s Twitter purchase), before looking deeper into the contemporary examples for Bernie’s model – namely himself and Angus King, two independents that, while outside of the party infrastructure, caucus (and vote) with Democrats. Wrapping up, Nichols and Sam look at the ongoing race for DNC chair, and the promising future of a Blue-Wall-led party – touching particularly on the success of DNC chair candidate Ben Wikler. And in the Fun Half: Emma unpacks the potential capture of the United Healthcare CEO killer in Altoona, PA, and the wide-ranging coverage of the event, from the incensed and out-of-touch Ben Shapiro to the ever big-brained Bill Burr, with additional commentary from Joe from Illinois. Zack from Missouri unpacks the MAGA defense of Trump’s character, Brie from New York on their view of the View, and Jim Clyburn and Chip Roy come to the defense of Trump and his administration, respectively, plus, your calls and IMs!

2385 - Our Era Of Oligarchy And Government By Gangster w/ Jeet Heer 12/06/2024

2385 - Our Era Of Oligarchy And Government By Gangster w/ Jeet Heer It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma host national affairs correspondent for 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. Thomas from Sacramento asks about combatting insane anti-trans talking points, plus, your calls and IMs!

2384 - South Korea Coup Fails; Syrian Civil War Flares Up w/ John Carl Baker, Giorgio Cafiero 12/05/2024

2384 - South Korea Coup Fails; Syrian Civil War Flares Up w/ John Carl Baker, Giorgio Cafiero It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with , director of programs at , to discuss the ongoing political unrest in South Korea. Then, she speaks with , CEO of & adjunct assistant professor at Georgetown University, to discuss the recent developments in Syria after rebel forces entered Aleppo. First, Emma runs through updates on the search for the UnitedHealthcare CEO’s killer, SCOTUS’ oral arguments on Tennessee’s ban on trans care for minors, Memphis Police discrimination, Trump’s elite-led cabinet, questions about Tulsi Gabbard’s loyalties, Pete Hegseth’s myriad embarrassments, Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Trump’s legal woes, and the future of Democratic leadership, before parsing a little deeper through yesterday’s oral arguments for US v. Skrmetti in front of the Supreme Court, and the fear that they might uphold Tennessee’s violently transphobic policy. John Carl Baker then joins, diving right into a step-by-step breakdown of how South Korean President Yoon’s attempt (and failure) to declare and enforce martial law last Tuesday developed, beginning with his declaration and assembling of soldiers and police around the National Assembly, through the rampant protests to allow legislatures to enter the assembly to vote down Yoon’s attempted coup, and to the overwhelming 190-0 (in an assembly of 300) veto of the President’s martial law. After briefly touching on the limited vocal support for Yoon from among his conservative allies, Baker steps back to explore the history of South Korea’s conservative ties to dictatorship, beginning with Japan’s brutal 30-year occupation of Korea through the end of the Second World War – an occupation bolstered by cooperation and support from conservative, capitalist, and right-wing Koreans – and through the sequential regimes of Chon Doo-hwan and Park Chung-hee from the 1960s-80s, with Park Geun-hye (daughter of Chung-hee) even rising to the Presidency just a decade ago only to be impeached over her corrupt practices, also unpacking the continued prevalence of authoritarian strains within the South Korean right over the last century. He and Emma then look at the non-coup-related failures of Yoon’s regime that created both his overwhelming unpopularity and the strong opposition he sought to undermine via coup, wrapping up the interview by unpacking the role of the US in backing Yoon’s regime, and what the ideal future of US-Korean relations would look like to the Korean electorate. Professor Giorgio Cafiero then joins, first running through updates on the recent sweeping offensives by Syrian rebels, successfully taking both Aleppo and Hama from the Assad regime, before taking a sharp step back as he walks us through the evolution of the 13-year Civil War, beginning with the Arab spring and spurring the intervention of myriad regional and international actors, through the 2015 intensification of conflict at the hand of increased Russian support for Assad and Iranian-backed groups, and to the lull in tensions that started in 2020, only to break this past week. After parsing through the more specific history of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, and the deep and complex ties between the Syrian and Iranian regimes, Emma and Professor Cafiero tackle the prevalent role of external conflicts in how the impact of these Syrian Rebel conquests will unfold, with Iran’s involvement in Hezbollah’s conflict with Israel and Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine giving two major parties conflicting interests. Cafiero expands on the precarious state of the Syrian state at this moment, looking both at what that means for a potential (however brief) lull in conflict and for the future of the Syrian government, before wrapping up with the ongoing role of Israeli relations in shaping Middle Eastern politics. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they listen to Eddie from Fort Worth’s Stetson Kennedy recommendations, talk with Gary from North Carolina about the divide between Trump voters and down-ballot GOP voters, and admire Jane Fonda’s performance on Bill Maher. Meg from Seattle unpacks the harrowing and life-threatening impacts of repressive reproductive care, and Megyn Kelly aids in the attempted resuscitation of Pete Hegseth’s potential career, plus, your calls and IM!

2383 - Hegseth's Hot Water & Conflicts Of Interest Everywhere w/ MR Crew! 12/04/2024

2383 - Hegseth's Hot Water & Conflicts Of Interest Everywhere w/ MR Crew! It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma discuss the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on Pete Hegseth’s character assassination, South Korean President Yoon’s failed martial law takeover and backlash, US v. Skrmetti, final US Congressional election tallies, Trump’s Billionaire defense contractor nomination for Deputy Secretary of Defence, a Jewish settler pogrom on West Bank Palestinians, Congressional Oversight, and judicial confirmation in the Senate, before spending some time admiring Fox News’ attempt to run cover for the astonishingly quick downfall of Pete Hegseth with accusations of abuse (be it of women or alcohol) coming from every corner of his social life. After briefly touching on some of Hegseth’s own problematic history of critiquing Donald Trump, Sam and Emma parse through the background on Stephen Feinberg – billionaire investor, hedge fund manager, and Trump’s pick for Deputy Defence Secretary – and his myriad conflicts of interest when it comes to the world of military contracts, also touching on the GOP’s slim Congressional majority and the major fights it sets up for 2025. Wrapping up, the MR Team highlights Ben Wikler’s promising campaign for DNC Chair in the wake of the astonishing failure of the consultant class in the 2024 elections, and issues a forewarning of the threat of “shared sacrifice” under a crypto-backed austerity regime. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma parse through some unsurprising developments around which services Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency can (Social Security) and cannot (military budget) cut, discuss the apparent murder of United Healthcare’s CEO, and reflect on the now-downtrodden legacy of Dinesh D’Souza’s “2000 Mules.” Tim Pool struggles to grapple with the intricacies of language and social dynamics, and the MR Crew highlights a more heartwarming side of Kash Patel’s history, plus, your calls and IMs!

2382 - Massive Sex Discrimination Case At Supreme Court w/ Ian Millhiser 12/03/2024

2382 - Massive Sex Discrimination Case At Supreme Court w/ Ian Millhiser It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with , senior correspondent at , to discuss some of the oral arguments going on in front of the Supreme Court this week. First, Sam runs through updates on South Korean President’s declaration of martial law, Israel’s myriad violations of their ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, the continued gutting of the IRS, US military domestic operations, Scott Walker’s Act 10, the nomination of Kash Patel, Trump’s plurality win, Dinesh D’Souza’s apologies, Trump’s threat to Gaza, US military aid to Ukraine, and Elon’s legal problems, also touching on Democratic Establishment’s staunch opposition to getting money out of primaries. Ian Millhiser then joins, diving right into the impending oral arguments on United States v. Skrmetti, marking the first full hearing on the constitutional question of the government’s ability to restrict the rights of (and explicitly target) transgender people (a term first used at the Supreme Court in 2010), outlining the case’s origin in the extensive red-state backlash to trans rights under the Biden Administration, with myriad prohibitions and restrictions placed on gender-affirming care for people under 18. After stepping back to tackle Skrmetti’s connection to Bostock v Clayton County (2020) and the Court’s decision (held by Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Gorsuch) that any discrimination based on gender identity or sexual orientation constitutes, no matter what, a form of sex discrimination, Millhiser and Sam parse through the various problems that still face the prosecution, including the extension of this question beyond the workplace, and the added context of exceptions for presumptively unconstitutional governmental actions, whether the Court is likely to get fully on-board with the defense’s conspiracy-centered argument about “trans ideology,” and what a more limited (though still devastating) decision in favor of the State’s right to discriminate against trans people could look like. Next, Ian looks to the FDA v. R.J. Reynolds Vapor Co, a case centered on the FDA’s ability to regulate tobacco and tobacco products, first walking through the history of the FDA’s right to regulate tobacco products, and their initial (and very late) attempts to reign in the ever-growing vaping industry beginning in 2016, before wrapping up by expanding on the role of the Chevron doctrine - the deference of the Courts to federal agencies when it comes to reading the ambiguity of federal legislation – in problematizing what should be an open-and-shut case for the Conservative majority. And in the Fun Half: Sam parses through the stream of denunciations from the past life of Trump’s new Defense Secretary nomination Pete Hegseth, including statements from a former non-profit he worked at, and his mother. Gary from North Carolina unpacks the “landslide” and “mandate” narratives about Trump’s victory, a Texas A&M student asks about assessing DEI and fairness, and the Heritage Foundation provides a detailed example of how the right-wing uses the language of economic populism to further entrench the power of capital. Bill Maher gets schooled by Jane Fonda over the “threat” of the far-left, Muhammad from Ohio tackles the role US foreign policy has played in shaping the Arab vote in Presidential elections, plus, your calls and IMs!

2381 - Faux Populism and How to Hear A Fascist w/ Rick Perlstein 12/02/2024

2381 - Faux Populism and How to Hear A Fascist w/ Rick Perlstein Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with historian, writer at , and author of his most recent book . But first, they run through updates on Joe Biden’s pardoning of Hunter, Trump’s developing cabinet, Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Gaza and developing annexation, Pete Hegseth’s history of abuse, US arms to Ukraine, German VW workers strike, and the DNC chair race, before watching Kash Patel preview what he’ll bring to the Trump administration live with Steve Bannon. Rick Perlstein then joins, as he, Sam, and Emma dive right into making sense of the social welfare promises made by vitriolic far-right populist regimes, be it Bismark’s invention of unemployment, a KKK that supports single-payer healthcare, or an RFK healthcare regime that could reign in Big Pharma, assessing the actual value of these promises and the limited impact they have as fascist carrots, and emphasizing why these administrations focus on destroying institutions and systems, not building them. After expanding on the particular threat of an RFK-led world of public “health”, Perlstein dives into the unfortunate necessity of relying on experts for a well-functioning democracy, before turning fully toward the future of a new Trump Administration, unpacking why the failure of their fear-mongering policies – particularly when it comes to their insane deportation scheme – won’t undermine the administration or its support, and why we need to rebuild our society’s trust in the government’s ability to help. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Trump’s administration of “deep-state disruptors,” unpack Biden’s pardoning of Hunter, and parse through a former Israeli Defense Minister’s statements on Israel’s “ethnic cleansing” of Gaza. They also talk with Clover from Central Valley about moving away from fascism and with Tammy from Illinois about academic paths under fascism, also watching Michael Knowles take a dip back into his acting career. Ali from Wisconsin asks about the potential of denaturalization under a new Trump administration, plus, your calls and IMs!

2379 - Democrats' Mortifying Post-Mortem 11/27/2024

2379 - Democrats' Mortifying Post-Mortem It’s Hump Day! Sam, Emma, and the MR Crew are breaking down some of the biggest news stories of the day and taking your calls in the show's first hour! First, they run through updates on ceasefire in Lebanon, Trump’s developing cabinet, Mexico’s President Sheinbaum’s retaliatory tariff plan, the Trump transition team, Democrats’ growing number in the House, Amazon workers’ international Black Friday strike, the battle between North Carolina’s governor and supermajority legislature, Maine’s lawsuit against ExxonMobil, Shell and Chevron, Pakistan’s crackdown on Imran Khan supporters, Ukrainian support for ending the war, and Trump’s plan to further defund IRS enforcement on wealthy people, before expanding on the great politics behind the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire, why it’s a major win for Israel – especially in winning over France’s rejection of the ICC warrants. After watching notorious ghoul Matthew Miller explain why it’s actually totally okay to hold Israel to a different standard for war crimes, they chat with Bree from New York about the relationship between Trump and the GOP, and dive deep into the major failings of the Biden-Harris campaigns, parsing through reflections from campaign leaders like David Plouffe and Stephanie Cutter as they dissect Democrats’ inability to run a campaign in an era of disillusionment where low-propensity voters are key. Phillip from New York has some updates on the threat of Bird Flu heading into influenza season. And in the Fun Half, the MR Crew check in with Rudy Giuliani, who (according to him) is flat broke and who (according to a courtroom sketch artist) is going insane in court and refusing to listen to legal counsel or the judge presiding over him. They then check out Marc Andreessen lying about the CFPB to Joe Rogan, as well as Vivek Ramaswamy's "DOGE" committee, which Fareed Zakaria is apparently super pumped about. Plus, your calls & IM's!

2378 - How 9/11 Shapes Politics Today w/ Richard Beck 11/26/2024

2378 - How 9/11 Shapes Politics Today w/ Richard Beck It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with , senior writer at , to discuss his recent book First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump’s tariffs, Trump’s cabinet drama, Trump’s legal woes, Biden’s gift to Trump, deaths under Texas’ abortion ban, Missouri’s ban on trans care for minors, Charlotte’s airport workers’ strike, bird flu, and Mississippi’s runoff election, before diving a little deeper into Biden’s plan to expand Medicare and Medicaid to include weight loss drugs like Ozempic, Trump’s tariff plan, and problems in the Trump cabinet. Richard Beck then joins, jumping right into his particular perspective for the war on terror as a teenager at the time of 9/11, unpacking the bipartisan normalization of the shift to a domestic surveillance state backing a globalized project of enforced American hegemony, and looking at how the Democratic Party (under Obama), in particular, worked to simultaneously present the Bush administration as an aberration, while bureaucratizing, rationalizing, and, ultimately, reinforcing the exact project that was supposedly so absurd. After briefly touching on the window Occupy provided to the Obama administration’s blatant rejection of a progressive movement outside of the political establishment, Beck steps back, diving into the overwhelming media backlash to any sort of critical lens on US hegemony, with a direct line between the “owning the libs” politics of today and the Limbaughian obsession with making fun of the progressive identifiers of the nineties and aughts, alongside a direct tie-in to the bipartisan militarization of American society, be it tanks in police departments, an influx of Humvees on the street, or the catapulting of “SpecOps”-esque comic movies to the forefront of US culture, and how those elements worked to further legitimize the amoral (and often actively immoral) maintenance of US hegemony across the globe. Wrapping up, Richard, Sam, and Emma briefly touch on the particular role of oil in the War on Terror, and why it fails to actually explain the quest for American hegemony in an age of dwindling capitalist expansion, tackling the major role of the US plays well outside of petroleum reserves in an effort, more than anything else, to simply protect its impunity at the top of the global liberal order. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma touch on future coverage of the Longshoremen’s strike, before diving into the continuing death and devastation coming from Texas’ abortion ban, and reflecting on Tim Pool’s desire to make every victim of rape a subject of public criticism if they want an abortion. They also tackle some backlash to Trump naming a pro-vaccination doctor to the position of Surgeon General, plus, you IMs!

2377 - Bolsonaro Indicted In Brazil; Crypto In The Trump Admin w/ Mike Elk; Jacob Silverman 11/25/2024

2377 - Bolsonaro Indicted In Brazil; Crypto In The Trump Admin w/ Mike Elk; Jacob Silverman Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with founder of the , to discuss the recent news out of Brazil that former President Bolsonaro has been indicted. Then, they speak with , co-author of his latest book Easy Money: Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud, and writer at the AM Quickie , to discuss Trump's nomination of Howard Lutnick to be Commerce Secretary, and his associations with crypto. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Israel’s destruction of Lebanon, Israel’s sanctioning of Haaretz, the Biden-Trump transition, Trump’s developing cabinet, Trump’s attacks on trans people, and Trump’s plan of attack on Jack Smith, before diving a little deeper into the growing tension between the US-Israel alliance and the international order upholding the ICC’s warrant for the arrest of Netanyahu. Mike Elk then joins, diving right into the major developments in Brazil’s criminal case over the far-right (and Bolsonaro-administration-) backed coup and recently-revealed assassination in the wake of Lula da Silva’s reelection in 2022, with the indicting of a massive portion of Bolsonaro’s military advisors occurring last week in the leadup to the indictment of Bolsonaro himself this week, all at the hands of the Brazilian Supreme Court. Elk then walks Sam and Emma through the development of the investigation, with incredibly poor criminal operations UNRELATED to the coup allowing the Court to easily swing snitches over to their side, before stepping back to unpack the evolution of the fascist attacks on Lula and the Brazilian left, from the corrupt imprisonment of Lula and his successor, through the backlash to said political imprisonment, and into Bolsonaro’s coup attempt in 2023. Mike expands on Bolsonaro’s clear connection to the 2018 assassination of Rio de Janeiro city council member Marielle Franco, before wrapping up by noting the stunning impact this entire affair (and, more importantly, the Court's willingness to act on it) has had on completely decapitating the threat of the Brazilian far-right. Jacob Silverman then walks Sam and Emma through the major influx in crypto spending in the 2024 election cycle, despite the industry’s recent stutters, and touches on the potential issue of an industry dominated by criminal conspiracy and transactions shaping US politics, before zeroing in on the particular role of one Tether, perhaps the largest cryptocurrency on the international level and a central investment of incoming Trump Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. After expanding on the incredibly shady, and fully not evidence-backed dealings of Tether, Jacob wraps up by unpacking the ultimate goal of the crypto industry in completely liberating the movement of money, freeing it from the shackles of absurd concepts like “fraud” and government regulations, and the role the Trump administration can play in making this goal a reality. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Milo Yiannopoulos talk gay sex, not having sex, Laura Loomer, straight sex, abstinence, and definitely not being gay with Tim Pool, before chatting with Guy from Massachusetts and Carrie from New York about certain similarities between Milo and one Nick Fuentes. BRB Forever presses Sam and Emma on the language around Israel’s genocide in Gaza, Walt from Wyoming unpacks Progressives’ major wins in Wisconsin, and Jordan Peterson teases out the conservative ideology behind the notoriously anti-fascist Lord of the Rings, plus, your calls and IMs!

2376 - What Does A Competent Trump Admin Look Like? w/ Heather Digby Parton 11/22/2024

2376 - What Does A Competent Trump Admin Look Like? w/ Heather Digby Parton It’s Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with , contributing writer at and proprietor of the blog , to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the indefinite cancellation of Trump’s hush money sentencing, Trump’s cabinet of rapists and fraudsters, the MTG-Musk-Ramaswamy connection, the House’s passage of the non-profit killer bill, Schumer’s weak politics, the divide between US-Israel and the rest of the international order over the ICC’s charges, Bolsonaro’s criminal charges, and UAW action in Kentucky, before parsing a little deeper through the vastly different responses to the ICC’s charges against Netanyahu, Gallant, and others, with an adamant defense of genocide from the Biden administration rebuked both internationally and domestically. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma first reflect on their gut reactions to Trump’s second presidential victory, the distinctions between their responses to 2016 and 2024, and the particular feeling of defeat for the feminist movement as an anti-abortion candidate begins to name his overwhelmingly predatory cabinet. Shifting more toward the policy impact of a second Trump term, Digby dives into the major threat of a “competent” Trump administration, backed by four years of drafting the blueprint for Project 2025, and what to make of growing tensions between Trump and the Senate, be it over leadership or cabinet appointments, expanding on that latter element by assessing the major (and controversial) roles to be played by potential cabinet members Pete Hegseth and Russ Vought. The three of them also touch on the major backing Trump has in the financial power of Elon Musk, and the evolution of the GOP’s clamor for power, before Sam and Emma wrap up the free half with some ancient (as in a mere 8 years ago) comments from RFK about one Donald Trump. And in the Fun Half: Emma dives deep into the impressive progressive representation coming out of Georgia, from the Senate to local politics, with some help from DSA Aaron from Atlanta, before briefly touching on the evolution of the Biden-Netanyahu relationship and what the future of a Trump-Netanyahu alliance will mean for the fight for a free Palestine. The MR Team also highlights Stavros Halkias' strong appearance with Theo Von, talks with Jake the Teacher about New York’s conservative shift and the future of the governor’s race, and unpacks the rampant bigotry of Nancy Mace and the right’s desire to put queer people back in the closet, plus, your calls and IMs!

2375 - Tulsi Gabbard’s Sketchy Past; GOP’s Anti-Trans Bathroom Panic w/ Mike Prysner, Erin Reed 11/21/2024

2375 - Tulsi Gabbard’s Sketchy Past; GOP’s Anti-Trans Bathroom Panic w/ Mike Prysner, Erin Reed It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! Emma speaks with of the to discuss Tulsi Gabbard's nomination to be U.S. Director of National Intelligence. Then, she speaks with journalist , author of the newsletter on SubStack, to discuss Rep. Nancy Mace's recent decision to introduce legislation to bar Rep. Sarah McBride, the only trans legislator in the upcoming Congress, from using the Capitol Hill bathrooms. First, Emma runs through updates on the ICC’s issuing of arrest warrants for the leaders behind Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, Israel’s new one-sided ceasefire pitch for Lebanon, the failure of Bernie’s Israel resolution in the Senate, the passage of the anti-non-profit bill in the House, US military aid to Ukraine, the Gaetz ethics report, Pete Hegseth’s history of sexual assault allegations, and Linda McMahon’s history of hiring people with sexual assault allegations, before watching a little more from the UN as they finally begin to hold Israel to account for their ethnic cleansing of Gaza. Mike Prysner then joins, diving right into Trump’s pick of one Tulsi Gabbard for his Director of National Intelligence, and the oddly underwhelming critique of her in the face of myriad problematic potential appointments, tackling how most of the mainstream criticisms of her focus on her odd foreign policy beliefs (support for dictators, Edward Snowden), leaving her deep ties to a deeply ideological religious organization untouched. Expanding on this latter element, Prysner parses through the history and evolution of the Science of Identity Foundation, a religious organization (or ‘cult’ to some ex-members) founded by former Hare Krishna member Chris Butler, who – claiming to be THE messenger from God – established and grew this community around himself, with explicit, long-term plans to establish and grow their role in American politics, first taking root in Hawaii with the rise of Gabbard’s parents, before she, having been groomed for the role from a young age, became the first elected to Congress. Going even deeper, Mike walks Emma through the central ideological beliefs of the organization, and how they fundamentally shape their education around islamophobia and homophobia, with a near-constant exposure to rampantly and explicitly anti-muslim and anti-LGBTQ sermons from Butler himself, ingraining these beliefs in children, before they step back to examine the community’s history of intimidation and harassment of ex-members and critics. Wrapping up, Prysner unpacks Tulsi’s role as a political chameleon, from her odd foreign policy takes to her Bernie-to-leaving-the-left pipeline, as a reflection of the organization's deep desire to climb the rungs of power – something expressed during her time in the military as well – and paints a picture of the role the Gabbard family play within the Science of Identity Foundation as a whole. And in the Fun Half, Emma, Matt Binder, Brandon Sutton, and the MR Crew react to the breaking news that former Rep. Matt Gaetz withdrew his nomination to be Trump's incoming Attorney General, and how some new exclusive CNN reporting on his conduct may have contributed to his withdrawal. The crew also strolls down memory lane to remember when Gaetz defended his relationship with his (completely real) adopted son, Nestor. They then look into the grisly allegations outlined in a 2017 police report regarding sexual assault investigation into Trump's Defense Secretary pick, Pete Hegseth. After, they check in on Emma's spicy appearance on "Piers Morgan Uncensored", where Emma made Piers visibly uncomfortable because a woman wouldn't listen to him telling her to be quiet.

2374 - Foreign Policy & The Future Of Public Health Under Trump w/ Matt Duss, Gregg Gonsalves 11/20/2024

2374 - Foreign Policy & The Future Of Public Health Under Trump w/ Matt Duss, Gregg Gonsalves It’s Hump Day! Sam speaks with , executive vice president at the , to discuss what may to be come in terms of foreign policy in Trump's 2nd term. Then, he speaks with , associate professor of epidemiology at Yale University, to discuss his recent piece in The Nation entitled First, Sam runs through updates on escalating conflict between Russia and Ukraine, US support for Israel’s genocide, the growing impact of climate change, Trump’s newest cabinet names, Nancy Mace’s TERF pivot, the Senate’s judicial confirmations, and the Stop Terror Financing Act, also briefly expanding on Trump’s cabinet appointments and the absurd lengths he will go to push them through confirmation. Matt Duss then joins, as first tackles the US’ recent vetoing of a 14-1 (the US being the 1) vote in the UN Security Council for an unconditional ceasefire in Gaza, unpacking the facade of Biden’s supposed goal of a ceasefire – something contradicted by every action and inaction regarding Israel – and the deeply personal ideological roots of his support for the Zionist project. After expanding on the impact of Israel’s genocide on evolving tensions in the Middle East and the changing role of US Hegemony, Duss and Sam look east as they unpack the US pivot to the Pacific and what a second Trump regime would mean for growing tensions with China, wrapping up by diving into the signals sent by Trump’s exceedingly neo-con cabinet, and why the ultimate factor might just be his ego. Professor Gregg Gonsalves joins, briefly reflecting on broader reactions to Trump’s developing public health regime led by Dr. Oz and RFK Jr., before diving deeper into some of the problems with the wider goals of an RFK-led public health project, including his misinformation around fluoridation and the US government’s balanced and hyper-vigilant approach to its presence in tap water. He and Sam wrap up the interview by unpacking the relationship between public health and wide-spread vaccinations, the concept of “risk” when it comes to vaccines, on both a personal and community level, and the limited threat of a Bird Flu outbreak. And in the Fun Half: Sam dives deep into an election post-mortem with Mike from PA, and the long-term failures of the Democratic Party, before watching Bernie’s call for the US to *actually* follow their own laws when it comes to arming Israel, and Oklahoma’s Superintendent sends out a message of prayer to all his state’s students. Alt-right freaks freak over male birth control, Marjorie Taylor Greene issues an empty (tho entertaining) threat over the Gaetz report, and Retro Robot explores the idea of (and problem with) post-inauguration protests. Nancy Mace forgets to disguise her transphobia with substantive critique of sexual predators, plus, your calls and IMs!

2373 - News Day Tuesday! Letter Carriers Fight For Fair Pay w/ Tyler Vasseur 11/19/2024

2373 - News Day Tuesday! Letter Carriers Fight For Fair Pay w/ Tyler Vasseur It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Tyler Vasseur, shop steward with the Branch 9, to discuss the tentative agreement being negotiated between the NALC and the United States Postal Service (USPS). First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Ukraine’s use of US-made missiles in Russia, the Gaetz report, Trump’s cabinet of predators, the DNC, House and Senate politics, US arms to Israel, genocide in Gaza, Musk/Bezos v. NLRB, and the Stop Terror Financing Bill, before watching Senator George Helmy’s emotional plea to the UN. Tyler Vasseur then joins, first outlining the breadth of the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) representation, before walking through the evolution of their ongoing fight for a fair contract, beginning with the expiration of their previous contract on May 20th, 2023 – touching on the major shortcomings of this contract’s Cost of Living Adjustments (COLA), particularly in the wake of the COVID pandemic and rampant inflation – and through over five hundred days of closed-door negotiations with Union Leadership, only for said leadership to announcement a new contract with a wage increase of a meager 1.3%. After diving deeper into the numbers behind this raise, Vasseur parses through the reaction of NALC members to this supposed “victory,” particularly as an anti-union Trump presidency threatens future victories, and how the rank-and-file is organizing to keep the fight for a fair contract going. He, Sam, and Emma also touch on the distinct fight NALC faces working with USPS, and the major problem of making workers, not management, responsible for keeping profits in line, before wrapping up the show by tackling what we can do to help this labor effort from the outside. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma look at the meaningful personal growth shown by folks like Markwayne Mullin and Joe Scarborough over the past year, going from openly denouncing fascists like Matt Gaetz and Donald Trump, respectively, to happily celebrating the future of their relationship to said fascists, before diving deep into the ongoing DNC implosion and what the future of the Party is likely to entail. They also give some updates on Rudy Giuliani’s legal woes, talk with Joshua from CT about RFK’s insane MAHA agenda and with A-Squared about progressive turnout, and tackle the importance of labeling fascists “fascist,” and Nazis “nazi,” plus, your calls and IMs!

2372 - What Will Education Look Like Under Trump? w/ Josh Cowen 11/18/2024

2372 - What Will Education Look Like Under Trump? w/ Josh Cowen Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with , professor of education policy at Michigan State University, to discuss his recent book First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump’s agenda of military-backed mass deportations, the Gaetz report, Trump’s cabinet confirmations, the GOP’s bill to kill nonprofits, labor action among Michigan nurses, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, starvation and genocide in Gaza, and Rudy Giuliani’s financial woes, also watching Morning Joe and Mika Brzezinski fast-track their capitulation to the Trump regime. Professor Josh Cowen then joins, diving right into the concept of school choice and the purpose of the voucher system, outlining how vouchers seek to make public dollars for education available for private tuition, supposedly to allow parents their choice of educational pathway for their child, before tackling exactly why this system fails to meet that goal, with private schools’ vastly increased ability to discriminate against students (via admissions or otherwise) meaning it becomes more “school’s choice” than “parent’s choice,” while the flood of money into private education markets under voucher systems, alongside the lack of transparency required for these private institutions, spurs the development of “subprime” providers who take this money in return for a significantly worse education that our public schools. Expanding on this, Josh walks Sam through the evolution of this parental rights’/school choice movement, beginning with the perfect storm of Milton Freedman’s desire to completely undermine the public school system in the US and the anti-segregationist backlash to Brown v. the Board of Education, and continuing through the growing prevalence of Christian Nationalist attacks on public education that we see today, exploring how reactionary forces bolster the drive to kill public education. After touching on the major financial impact the voucher program has had on public education, with a negative impact on its return end, Cowen wraps up by looking to the future of government-run-and-funded education under a Trump presidency, including the likelihood that he will actually dismantle the Department of Education, and why, despite the GOP’s electoral success, the voucher agenda has seen overwhelming backlash from voters. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack Trump’s potential attack on social security before diving deep into RFK’s ongoing acquiescence to the Trump regime to the point of… publicly ingesting seed oils?!?! They also touch on the developing capitulation of the Senate to let Trump bypass them with his cabinet appointments and parse through the direct relationship between news consumption and support for Harris as they unpack the utter messaging and campaign failures by the Democratic Party, with a highlight on the misleading interests of the consultant class on the Biden/Harris campaign agendas. They also watch Rep. Jayapal nail the election post-mortem, and have some fun reflecting on the evolution of one Jackson Hinkle with a caller, plus, your calls and IMs!

2371 - Elite Hubris, Harris' Loss, & Lessons For The Future w/ Astead Herndon 11/15/2024

2371 - Elite Hubris, Harris' Loss, & Lessons For The Future w/ Astead Herndon It's Casual Friday! Sam speaks with , national politics reporter at the and host of "The Run-Up" , 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!

2370 - Gaetz Picked For AG; Climate Activism & Foreign Policy Under Trump w/ Jean Su, Sina Toossi 11/14/2024

2370 - Gaetz Picked For AG; Climate Activism & Foreign Policy Under Trump w/ Jean Su, Sina Toossi It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! Emma speaks with , Energy Justice Director for the , to discuss her recent piece in the New Republic entitled Then, she speaks with , senior fellow at the , to discuss Trump's cabinet appointments when it comes to foreign policy. First, Emma runs through updates on Trump’s pick of Matt Gaetz for Attorney General just before the release of his ethics report, the GOP’s Senate leadership fight, Mike Johnson’s plea to Trump, a Pennsylvania election recount for the Senate race, Elon’s grating personality, Biden’s gift to Trump, Russia’s escalation in the wake of the reelection of Donald Trump, the prosecution of Marine Le Pen, the NLRB, malpractice in the investigation of the death of Nex Benedict, New York’s congestion pricing, and the sale of Alex Jones’ InfoWars to the Onion, also briefly reflecting on the future of the Matt Gaetz nomination. Jean Su then joins, jumping right into the unfortunate timing of Trump’s reelection as the ever-insufficient COP29 environmental conference is held in fossil-fuel haven Azerbaijan, as she and Emma unpack the extreme limitations (largely pushed by the US) of the Paris Agreement, and why Trump’s plan to withdraw from the agreement might, in fact, open up an opportunity for the international community to explore greater economic, environmental, and energy alternatives on the global scale. After expanding on the myriad insufficiencies and clear western-centricity in the existing Paris Agreement, and the importance of giving countries in the global south – where the impact of the climate catastrophe is greatest – a greater role at the table, Su explores how the battle over climate change is shifting drastically from one between rich and poor nations to one between rich and poor people. Wrapping up, Julie and Emma tackle the lackluster progression to the climate transition in the US under the Biden Administration, and why pushing against capitalism is central to this fight moving forward. Next, Sina Toossi and Emma look to the developing picture of Trump’s cabinet in his upcoming administration, as neocons like Marco Rubio, Mike Waltz, and Pete Hegseth are named to the supposedly-anti-war candidate’s office, before touching on the major role that radical Christian Zionists seem to play as well. After expanding on what a Christian Zionist administration would mean for the ongoing genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestine, Sina and Emma wrap up with the balance a Trump presidency would see between accelerating the development of a multipolar world order and wreaking mass chaos, disruption, and death, with a particular focus on Iran and the Middle East when it comes to that latter point. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they bask in Alex Jones’ reaction to the Onion purchasing InfoWars at a bankruptcy auction, before diving deep into an NYT article that makes a few things clear, from the incomprehensible rationale to the evident existence of the shy Trump voter. They also talk with David from San Fran about the role of oil in Israel’s ongoing annexation of Gaza, parse through the absurd endeavor that has been Trump naming his cabinet picks (much to Mike Johnson’s chagrin), and discuss the future of green cards and immigration with Alex from California. Joe from Jersey unpacks the connection between anti-semitism and enthusiastic Zionism, plus, your calls and IMs!

2368 - Trump Supporters NeoConned 11/12/2024

2368 - Trump Supporters NeoConned It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on Trump’s neo-con pivot for his administration, Israel’s failure to meet a US deadline to boost aid to Gaza (and the unlikelihood of repercussions), calls to annex the West Bank, final tallies on the US Senate race, the GOP’s House majority, and civil unrest in Haiti, also touching on the importance of organizing in the wake of this election, and diving deep into Congress’ ongoing fight to pass the “Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act” which would set the stage for Trump to abuse any non-profit that acts against him. Next, they parse through some of Trump’s overwhelmingly hawkish, neo-conservative choices for his administration, including notorious supporters of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, respectively, Marco Rubio and Mike Waltz. They also touch on Trump’s ability to differentiate himself from the “establishment” GOP, despite wanting all of the same things, and tackle his über-concerning agenda against higher education in the US. They wrap up the free half with the importance of being militant about the lessons the Left (and Democrats) learn from this election, and discuss the future direction of the show. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma talk with Gilbert from California about what to expect from a GOP trifecta, unpack AOC’s Q-and-A with joint AOC-Trump voters, and explore Israel’s unsurprising response to the US election (more exuberant, unchecked violence). They also talk with RM Brown about his work with the Tim Pool Research Foundation, before doing their own deep dive into Sam’s Halloweekend appearance on Tim Pool, including Tim’s open acknowledgment of his refusal to do any research beyond reading a subheading. Kevin from Columbus touches on the “your body, my choice” trend, and the importance of community organizing, and the MR Team unpacks RFK’s wild pitch for a spot in the Trump administration, with some help from Kowalski from Nebraska, plus, your calls and IMs!

2367 - Lessons For Democrats In Trump's Win w/ David Dayen 11/11/2024

2367 - Lessons For Democrats In Trump's Win w/ David Dayen Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with , executive editor at and co-host of the Organized Money , to discuss the continued fallout from last Tuesday's elections. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the ongoing recriminations of Dems’ major losses in last week’s elections, a GOP trifecta, Trump’s border czar, Elise Stefanik, Massachusetts teachers’ labor action, Trump’s hush money conviction, and the House’s fast-tracking of a bill perfectly suited to Trump’s fashy aims, also touching on how Trump’s deportation plan has been drastically understated. David Dayen then joins, diving right into the broader context of this election within an era of overwhelmingly volatile politics, both within the US – as just the third instance of three-consecutive one-term presidencies – and globally – amid international anti-incumbent backlash – and why so much of that insecurity is a direct reflection of an economically insecure electorate with little-to-no faith in their political institutions (or those in control of them). Expanding on this, Dayen walks through the contrasting narratives around the US economy, with aggregate statistics and long-term predictions not reflecting the complete disappearance of a phenomenally successful pandemic-era social safety net, rising food and housing costs amid inflation, before he, Sam, and Emma step back to reflect on the long-term narrative of inaction and piecemeal action from the Biden Administration when it came to his primary agenda item of Build Back Better. After expanding on the internal contradictions that have held the Democratic Party back so thoroughly over the last decade, David dives into the major threat of a prepared Trump Administration under Project 2025, and wraps up with the need to push our political institutions (be they media or state) to keep emphasizing oversight and accountability as we head into Trump 2.0. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack the expansive plans Trump has for his recently-named border Czar, and listen to Philippe Reines – advisor to Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris’ campaigns – give his take on why the Democratic party should double down on the anti-woke. Malaika Jabali absolutely nails how Democrats’ 2024 campaign ignored the working class, plus, your calls and IMs!

2366 - Harris/Walz Autopsy; Biden’s Role In Trump’s Win; What Do Americans Want? w/ Mehdi Hasan 11/08/2024

2366 - Harris/Walz Autopsy; Biden’s Role In Trump’s Win; What Do Americans Want? w/ Mehdi Hasan It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with , founder, CEO, and editor-in-chief of , 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!
