It's Casual Friday! Sam speaks with Astead Herndon, national politics reporter at the New York Times and host of "The Run-Up" podcast, to break down a crazy first week post-election. First, Sam runs through updates on the developing picture of Trumpâs cabinet, the Stop Terror Financing Act, and CFPB and NLRB action, also touching on establishment responses to RFKâs 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 sidesâ 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 â via primary or otherwise â 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 votersâ 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 â unelected bureaucrat â 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 â get this â a batsh*t conspiracy, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Majority Report with Sam Seder - https://majorityreportradio.com/

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! Emma speaks with Jean Su, Energy Justice Director for the Center For Biological Diversity, to discuss her recent piece in the New Republic entitled "Trumpâs Election Is a Disaster for the Climateâand an Opportunity." Then, she speaks with Sina Toossi, senior fellow at the Center for International Policy, to discuss Trump's cabinet appointments when it comes to foreign policy. First, Emma runs through updates on Trumpâs pick of Matt Gaetz for Attorney General just before the release of his ethics report, the GOPâs Senate leadership fight, Mike Johnsonâs plea to Trump, a Pennsylvania election recount for the Senate race, Elonâs grating personality, Bidenâs gift to Trump, Russiaâs 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 Yorkâs congestion pricing, and the sale of Alex Jonesâ 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 Trumpâs 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 Trumpâs 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 â where the impact of the climate catastrophe is greatest â 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 Trumpâs cabinet in his upcoming administration, as neocons like Marco Rubio, Mike Waltz, and Pete Hegseth are named to the supposedly-anti-war candidateâs 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 Jonesâ 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 Israelâs ongoing annexation of Gaza, parse through the absurd endeavor that has been Trump naming his cabinet picks (much to Mike Johnsonâs 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!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on Trumpâs neo-con pivot for his administration, Israelâs 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 GOPâs House majority, and civil unrest in Haiti, also touching on the importance of organizing in the wake of this election, and diving deep into Congressâ ongoing fight to pass the âStop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Actâ which would set the stage for Trump to abuse any non-profit that acts against him. Next, they parse through some of Trumpâs 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 Trumpâs ability to differentiate himself from the âestablishmentâ GOP, despite wanting all of the same things, and tackle his ĂŒber-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 AOCâs Q-and-A with joint AOC-Trump voters, and explore Israelâs 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 Samâs Halloweekend appearance on Tim Pool, including Timâs open acknowledgment of his refusal to do any research beyond reading a subheading. Kevin from Columbus touches on the âyour body, my choiceâ trend, and the importance of community organizing, and the MR Team unpacks RFKâs wild pitch for a spot in the Trump administration, with some help from Kowalski from Nebraska, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with David Dayen, executive editor at The American Prospect and co-host of the Organized Money podcast, to discuss the continued fallout from last Tuesday's elections. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the ongoing recriminations of Demsâ major losses in last weekâs elections, a GOP trifecta, Trumpâs border czar, Elise Stefanik, Massachusetts teachersâ labor action, Trumpâs hush money conviction, and the Houseâs fast-tracking of a bill perfectly suited to Trumpâs fashy aims, also touching on how Trumpâs 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 â as just the third instance of three-consecutive one-term presidencies â and globally â amid international anti-incumbent backlash â 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 â advisor to Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harrisâ campaigns â give his take on why the Democratic party should double down on the anti-woke. Malaika Jabali absolutely nails how Democratsâ 2024 campaign ignored the working class, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Mehdi Hasan, founder, CEO, and editor-in-chief of Zeteo, to discuss all of the developments since Tuesday's election. First, Emma runs through updates on the Harris-Walz campaignâs overperformance in battleground states, PA Demsâ maintenance of the State House majority, the ongoing battle for the US House, the Trump Administration, preparations for Trumpâs mass deportations, the GOPâs anti-abortion tact, Israelâs 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 Tuesdayâs blowout win by Trump and the GOP, looking at Trumpâs 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 Trumpâs 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 Americaâs love for money, and Alex in Phoenix explores what happened to the coalition built around Bernie Sandersâ campaign. The MR Team also touches on the continued scapegoating of minorities in the wake of Trumpâs victory, some typically horrific election analyses from Bari Weiss and Tom Suozzi, and Lula da Silvaâs 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!

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! Emma speaks with Daniel Nichanian, editor-in-chief of Bolts Magazine, to discuss the state of the rest of the downballot races after Tuesday's results. Then, she speaks with Usamah Andrabi, communications director & spokesperson for Justice Democrats, to discuss what's next for Democrats heading into 2025. First, Emma runs through updates on Harrisâ election concession, the DNC blame game, exit polling, abortionâs performance, the lingering House fight, Netanyahuâs Trump bootlicking, the Trump Administration, and major wildfires in California, before watching Astead Herndonâs astute reflections on Demsâ failure to run on anything but the status-quo and abortion. Daniel Nichanian then joins, diving right into the overwhelming rejection of Harris, particularly as an extension of a deeply unpopular Biden Administration, and the major defeats seen by Dem Senate candidates, before walking through the stark contrast between that electoral apathy and the genuine success of progressive referendum and state-level progressive campaigns, briefly touching on the lingering (though unlikely) possibility of Democratsâ winning a slim majority in the House. After expanding on the stratification of voting on the Presidency versus down-ballot, Daniel and Emma tackle the major state legislature losses handed to Democrats in Michigan, and Minnesota, and why the future of Congressional campaign fights may lie in the northeast. Usamah Andrabi and Emma then parse through the ongoing failure of Democratsâ evident disassociation from the working-class identity that had carried their coalition for decades, refusing to run campaigns that arenât geared around unifying a mythical centrist coalition (that also includes Republicans and Progressives) driven by celebrities and billionaires and grounded in diet-right-wing politics, and emphasizing abstract economic conditions over the material, lived reality with which everyday Americans struggle. They also touch on the major drag of Harrisâ commitment to the overwhelmingly unpopular status quo under Biden, and unpack the future of a fight for a Democratic party that actually fights for and with the working class.
And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they unpack their election reflections, tackle how Biden set up Harris to fail, and highlight some major distinctions between Obamaâs winning campaign and Demsâ last few major failures. Joe Scarborough blames cancel culture and identity politics for Harris losing, and the MR Team dives deep into Democratsâ persistent failure to set the narrative in mainstream media, plus, your calls and IMs!

Itâs Hump Day! Emma speaks with Ettingermentum of the "Ettingermentum Newsletter" on SubStack to discuss the results of the 2024 election. First, Emma runs through the big updates on Trumpâs victory in the Presidential election, the GOPâs taking of the Senate (and likely keeping the House), exit polls, the success and failure of various abortion referendums, and Californiaâs tough-on-crime referendum, before expanding on their personal reflections on the GOPâs overwhelming victory yesterday. Ettingermentum then joins, as he and Emma where their polling predictions went wrong, also unpacking why Dems learned all of the wrong lessons from their success in the 2022 midterms â particularly in terms of interpreting it as an explicit endorsement of the Biden Administration â and the complete failure of Democrats and Kamala Harris to set forth an alternative vision to the GOPâs demagogic fascism and Bidenâs lethargic liberalism. After briefly touching on the legitimacy of the âShyâ Trump voter, and parsing through the lessons on campaign ground game, Josh and Emma look at the parallels between Obama and Trumpâs victories â particularly in terms of turning out disengaged voters â and dive deep into what the future of the progressive project will look like under Trump.
And in the Fun Half: After expanding on the Rightâs sweeping victory in yesterdayâs elections, Emma and the MR Team talk with Kimmy from Kentucky about moving forward as a red-state single mother and the importance of community organizing â both materially and spiritually â and Ronald Raygun shares his reflections on Trumpâs victory. They also unpack the âlessonsâ that could be learned, Valerie from Arizona shares some personal messages and a hypothesis, and Blake from Nashville tackles party politics. Ben from Columbus explores Bernie Morenoâs victory over Sherrod Brown, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter just one day out from the 2024 election. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on final-day swing state polling, the lingering impact of Trumpâs fascist rally at MSG, the electoral drag of Harrisâ support for genocide, RFKâs fluoride attack, Israelâs banning of UNRWA and enforced starvation in Gaza, and the NYT Tech Guild strike, before touching on Trumpâs ongoing deterioration and Mike Johnsonâs wild slip-up over the CHIPs Act. Dave Weigel then joins, diving right into the major Selzer poll out of Iowa, what it shows us regarding Harrisâ overwhelming support from women, and what this poll (and others) can tell us about the success of Harris' voter outreach across swing states. Weigel, Sam, and Emma also parse through the numbers behind early voting, why Democrats arenât particularly pressed about them, and the evolving constituency of independent voters, before touching on the GOPâs GOTV fiasco â led by Elon Musk and Charlie Kirk. After briefly reflecting on the lingering impact of Trumpâs Bund rally at MSG, they get into a preview of the Senate fight, what the best/worst case scenarios are for Dems and Republicans across the Presidency, House, and Senate, and what particular races might act as bellwethers for the greater election. Sam also highlights a John Oliver segment on Georgia Rep. Ruwa Rommanâs comments on voting for Harris.
And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Greg from Massachusetts about down-ballot voting and the secret men for Harris vote, dives deep into the context for and meaning behind Selzerâs Iowa poll (with some added commentary from Trump and, later on, Jeff from Iowa), and Tim from Chicago asks about the election night timeline. Tucker reflects on wrestling with his demons (and losing), RFK Jr. sets his sights on fluoride, and Steve Doocy canât quite put his finger on why women donât like Trump, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma hosts Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news just 4 days out from the 2024 Election. First, Emma runs through updates on early voting numbers, swing state polling, SCOTUS taking up Pennsylvaniaâs ballot case, Trumpâs visit to Dearborn, TPUSAâs voting drives, Israelâs ongoing slaughter in Gaza and destruction of Lebanon, the Boeing machinistsâ labor push, Texan fascism, and the devastating flash floods in Spain, before watching Hannity and Newt Gingrich happily join the âaffirming womenâs fears about conservative menâ party. Jeet Heer then joins, here, at the end of all things, as he and Emma dive deep into the contradicting trends around the incoming US presidential election, first tackling Harrisâ major gap among undecided voters due to her implicit support for Bidenâs genocide in Gaza (as well as the greater insistence by the Democratic party to cede ground on anti-imperialism), before shifting to the ongoing war on âgenderâ grounds, with Trump attempting to court young white male voters with his fascist paternalism, including some odd outreach to the elite gay white man constituency. Wrapping up, Jeet and Emma parse through the potentials as they assess the future of the progressive fight under either a Trump or a Harris presidency.
And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Charles from Nashville about his fatherâs consumption of conservative media, unpacks the constant pervasion of Israelâs apartheid onto its Israeli Jewish population, and discusses the Green Partyâs questionable stances with Ethan from Washington. Joe Rogan sees Islam as the biggest threat to the US democracy, Trump-Epstein leaks come out, and Kowalski from Nebraska chats about his final harvest and the state of Nebraskan politics. Ramaswamay gets a lesson in taking out the trash, Charlie Kirk has some thoughts about women who dare undermine their husbands, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! Emma speaks with Aaron Kleinman, director of research for the States Project at Future Now, to discuss what to watch next week on Election Day. Then, she speaks with Georgia State Rep. Ruwa Romman to discuss her after-action plan upon voting for Kamala Harris. First, Emma runs through updates on early voting, swing state polling, Trumpâs garbage stunt, PA voting, Elonâs Super PAC exploitation, Trumpâs healthcare and immigration agenda, Bidenâs state department coverup of Israelâs genocide, Israelâs demolition of southern Lebanon, and flash floods in Spain, before watching Jesse Watters prove exactly why conservative men and such a ridiculous danger to their spouses. Aaron Kleinman then joins, as he and Emma jump right into addressing this electionâs role as yet another âclosestâ election in US history, what signs point to that not being the case (largely favoring Harris), and why the thin margin being shown in polling must be at least addressed by the Harris campaign. Kleinman then steps back to parse through the âdemolition derbyâ that is the state legislature races across the country, including the wildly close races across Pennsylvania's Senate and House, the Democratsâ push in Florida and Wisconsin, and the role certain North Carolina races play as bellwethers for the US presidential election, before wrapping up with a quick assessment of the key legislatures Dems are seeking to flip, and what to make of the GOP push in Blue havens like New York and California.
And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they parse a little deeper through the absurdity of Trumpâs garbage stunt, talk with JR from Philly about polling problems, and address the topic of pacifist invasion defense with Alfred from Texas. They also unpack TYTâs shallow discussion on fascism, Garrett from Northern Virginia discusses misinformation around late-term abortions, and Elon Musk struggles to capture the hearts of the US electorate with his blatant sexism and exploitation. The MR Team also runs through some of their top horror movie picks this Halloween, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Molly Redden, reporter covering national politics at ProPublica, and Andy Kroll, reporter covering voting, elections, & democracy at ProPublica, to discuss their piece of reporting entitled âPut Them in Traumaâ: Inside a Key MAGA Leaderâs Plans for a New Trump Agenda. First, Sam runs through updates on the final six days to the US election, early voting numbers, RFKâs ballot problems, Trumpâs threat to Police over mass deportations, the US economy, Israelâs en masse slaughter of civilians in Gaza and Lebanon, and Elon Musk v. the NLRB, before briefly touching on the role of Kamala Harrisâ identity in votersâ support of/aversion to her. Molly Redden and Andy Kroll then join, diving right into who Russell Vought is in the context of Trumpâs first administration (Director of the Office of Management and Budget), current campaign (policy director of the RNC platform committee), and the SUPPOSEDLY unrelated Project 2025 (co-author), before touching on the role he played in the evolution of the Trump teamâs knowledge of the administrative state, and â more importantly â how to dismantle it. Expanding on that latter element, Redden and Kroll parse through the first Trump administrationâs learning process in how to manage (and mismanage) the executive branch, forcing them to rely on career civil servants at the start who, annoyingly, cared about the work they were doing, before slowly pushing them out as Trump loyalists began to understand what they were doing, with a particular focus on the danger Trumpâs âSchedule Fâ poses to any remaining committed civil servants in the executive branch should he return to office. After tackling Russell Voughtâs outspoken support for the complete âtraumatizationâ of these workers on their way out, Sam, Molly, and Andy look to the extensive plan Trumpâs team (and their Project 2025 buddies) have for a radical executive intervention beginning day 1 (should he become President), including relevant regulations and legal justifications, before they wrap up the interview by tackling what we can do (electorally and otherwise) to stop a second Trump Administration.
And in the Fun Half: Sam reads Kowalskiâs reflections on a Nebraska Town Hall, JD Vance takes offense at people taking offense to being called âgarbageâ before going on to take offense to being called âgarbage,â and Sandy from Ontario touches on Canadaâs recent elections. Derrick from Virginia objects to how MR has painted his campaign, Bruce from North Carolina on local feelings heading into the election, and Donald Trump discusses why we donât all have to get along. Hannity runs cover for Trumpâs fascist rally, Elon Musk continues to be a tiny sniveling weasel, and Rich from Missouri dives into the GOPâs use of âballot candyâ to mislead and lure voters. Dave Rubin has some election theories, Charles from Virginia explores what an insurrection would look like without Trump in office, Jack from St. Louis on Missouriâs judges, and Mike Johnson says the GOP has a healthcare plan. The MR Crew also watches Robbie Roadsteamer beautifully take the piss out of Steve Bannon and Hulk Hogan, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with writer and editor Gareth Gore about his new book Opus: The Cult of Dark Money, Human Trafficking, and Right-Wing Conspiracy inside the Catholic Church. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trumpâs visit to Allentown in the wake of his fascist rally in New York, the Harris Campaign, polling, Floridaâs abortion amendment, attacks on ballot boxes in Washington, Nevadaâs election rules, Steve Bannonâs release from prison, fallout from Bezosâ rule over the Washington Post, and Israelâs banning of UNRWA, before expanding on the overwhelming backlash to Tony Hinchcliffeâs set at Trumpâs fascist rally in NYC, and a potential connection to one Joe Rogan. Gareth Gore then joins, diving right into the story of his research into the collapse of a Spanish bank that led him to uncover the outrageous and extensive financial connections between Opus Dei, said bank, and myriad âhospitalityâ schools across the globe that routinely trafficked women, before stepping back to unpack what Opus Dei is and its process of radicalization under Spanish Priest (and founder) JosemarĂa EscrivĂĄ in early 20th Century Spain to become the reactionary, militant, elite-connected, and Papal-doubting organization that we see today. After briefly expanding on the expansive state of Opus Deiâs connection to the contemporary US conservative movement, particularly in the Courts and Media, Gore steps back to analyze the rise of Opus Dei in the US, walking through its first few decades of struggle before its lingering presence around elite institutions finally took off, and exploring its central motive (from its roots in Spain) of pervading elite networks to grow its political power, with the ultimate goal of imposing their theocratic rule. Gareth also walks Sam through the story of Opus Deiâs âHospitality Schools,â as a central example of their emphasis on abusive and exploitative hierarchy, and the overwhelming backlash to his reporting from Opus Dei-affiliated groups and individuals, before wrapping up by assessing the role the organization is playing in the ongoing US elections, with tight ties to both GOP Mega-Donor Leonard Leo and Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance.
And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma dive a little deeper into the widespread reaction to Tony Hinchcliffeâs wildly racist speech at Trumpâs MSG rally, tackle the Supreme Courtâs newest âIndependent State Legislatureâ case out of Pennsylvania, and unpack the depths of bigotry behind Ryan James Girduskyâs astonishing threat to Mehdi Hasan on CNN. Kari Lake canât get past that whole ârefusing to concede an electionâ thing, Thomas from New Jersey discusses the ongoing attack against Hasan and co., and Cole from Little Rock explores an ongoing conversation with his Christian Zionism grandmother-in-law. John from San Antonio bums us out with his election predictions, plus, your calls and IMs!Follow Gareth on Twitter here: https://x.com/gareth_gore

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines 8 days away from the 2024 Election. First, they run through updates on the final countdown to election day 2024, Trumpâs fascist rally at MSG, Harrisâ final campaign push, GOP leads in Texas and Nebraska senate races, Jeff Bezosâ obstruction of a Washington Post endorsement of Harris in a quid pro quo with Trump, Israelâs attack on Iran and devastation in Gaza and the West Bank, PA DA Larry Krasnerâs suit against Elon Musk, the fifth circuits election shenanigans, and North Dakotaâs property tax, also watching Vance continue his floundering media run as Jake Tapper confronts him over Trumpâs âenemy from withinâ comments. Sam and Emma then parse through some of the most astonishing moments from Trumpâs fascist rally at Madison Square Garden in NYC, unpacking its parallel with a full-scale Nazi rally at MSG in 1939, exploring the breadths of virulent racism in âcomedianâ Kill Tony Hinchcliffeâs speech (and the unsurprising backlash to it), and watching Rudy Giuliani do one final dance on stage for Trump and Israel.
And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack Trumpâs âpolling is fakeâ take on Rogan, parse through coverage of polling and what to make of polling among voters of various propensities, and attacks on ballot boxes in Portland and Vancouver. Omar from Dallas then calls in as he, Sam, and Emma dive deep into the bipartisan complicity in supporting Israelâs genocide, the near guarantee of a West Bank annexation under Trump, the particular complicity of one Joe Biden, Democratsâ refusal to learn from the electorate, single-issue voting and theories of change, and much more, before they chat with Jermo about election expectations, Stevie from Portland about why policy doesnât get news time, and Jacob from Indianapolis about the lack of sound logic behind conspiracy. Richard from Houston discusses abortion rhetoric, plus, your calls and iMs!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Tommy Vietor, co-founder of Crooked Media, to round up the week in news. First, Sam runs through updates on US presidential polling, US Senate races, Israelâs indiscriminate offensives in Lebanon and Gaza, Elonâs secret contact with Putin and (definitely unrelated) campaign shenanigans, the CFPB, and the USâ Indigenous boarding schools, also watching Fox attempt to explain why Trump was praising Hitler as a businessman, not a Presidential candidate. Tommy Vietor then joins, jumping right into a conversation on the state of the US presidential race, unpacking the GOPâs big jump in early voting (alongside other, very real Get out the Vote struggles), the Harris Campaignâs targeting of young Black men and alienated conservative white women, and why Harris isnât highlighting her âchangeâ policies around social welfare despite her desperate need to differentiate herself from Biden. Vietor, Sam, and Emma also tackle the major swing right among Arab-American voters amid the Biden Administrationâs exuberant support for the genocide in Gaza, before touching on the benefits and costs of the late start to the Harris campaign, and wrapping up with the major threat Trump poses to Bidenâs major progressive wins on the domestic front.
And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks Trumpâs double down on the bigoted anti-immigrant lies about Haitian migrants in Springfield, basks in Ben Shapiro getting schooled on immigration, and watches the Good Liars keep up the lordâs work of mocking fascists. Dan from New York unpacks Zionist indoctrination, Marissa from California has some unfortunate reflections on Harrisâ text campaign, and the Soy Pill from YouTube shares some stories about the floundering Trump campaign. Joe from Kansas and Dave from Jamaica reflect on Islamophobic repression and genocide across the globe, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Craig Gent, north of England editor at Novara Media, to discuss his recent book Cyberboss: The Rise of Algorithmic Management and the New Struggle for Control at Work.
First, Emma runs through updates on Harrisâ CNN town hall, Trump-Harris polling, a new allegation of Trumpâs sexual assault (with a bonus of Epsteinâs involvement), Elon Muskâs DOJ troubles, the owner of the LA Timesâ editorial issues, the Boeing machinist strike, Israelâs devastation of Lebanon, foreign aid to Lebanon, Michigan AG Nesselâs discriminatory crackdown on pro-Palestine protesters, and the CFPB, before diving a little deeper into Harrisâ better answers on CNN last night. Craig Gent then joins, diving right into the mass proliferation of AI and algorithmic practices, not as a replacement for physical or technical labor, but as a replacement for management, exploring how the traditional role of human managers of overseeing a workplace has been replaced with automated systems that employ everything from gamification to surveillance and punishment to keep production in line with neoliberal aims of endless growth. Expanding on this, Gent walks through how these systems serve to further atomize and isolate an already alienated workforce, creating a supposedly infallible system that dictates their every move and completely obfuscates the power dynamics at play, resulting in a working environment with little to no space for agency, dignity, or solidarity, before briefly touching on how workers are desperately seeking for any way to leverage agency in these workspaces. Craig also highlights the pressing need for unions to open up their awareness to the threat of this technology, not as a tool that COULD be used to exploit them, but as ones that were explicitly created TO exploit them, working to suppress and pull back the exploitative nature of these systems rather than attempting to âshareâ in the benefit of this exploitation. Emma also tackles Bill Ackmanâs defense of Trumpâs appreciation of Adolf Hitler.
And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they watch Tucker Carlson bring fascism to the TP gooning party, unpack Harrisâ unchanging stance on Israel, and talk with Daniel from LA about LAâs city council race between Jurado and De Leon. Doctor Dragon Rider has some qualms with the show and highlights his research into an interesting conspiracy around the dark money coming from Russia to the conservative mediasphere. Matt Walsh tackles the connection between babysitting and being the President of the United States, and todayâs crew unpacks the disgusting state of panic of the zionist movement as its imperialist hypocrisies come to the fore, plus, your calls and IMs!Check out Craig's book here: https://www.versobooks.com/products/2958-cyberboss

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma speak with Mark Joseph Stern, senior writer at Slate, to discuss the ongoing oral arguments of this current Supreme Court term.
First, Sam runs through updates on the last two weeks heading into US elections, Trumpâs fascism, Israelâs indiscriminate offensives on Gaza and Lebanon, election interference, Rudy Giulianiâs legal (and financial) woes, Georgiaâs election regulations, the House GOPâs leadership jocky, and Trumpâs upcoming Rogan appearance, before diving a little deeper into the moral, humanitarian, and all-around political failure that has been the Biden Administrationâs full-scale backing of Israeli genocide. Mark Joseph Stern then joins as he and Sam first unpack the suspicious lack of a major (both in quantity and quality) court load for the final Supreme Court term heading into the 2024 elections, exploring the conservative-majority Courtâs active attempt to fade into the background rather than risk making controversial decisions (which they surely would) should they hurt Trumpâs chances. Stern then looks to a few major cases that SCOTUS has shunted to after November, first tackling Garland v. VanDerStokâs insane argument over the sale of disassembled munitions (aka Ghost Guns) to skirt background check, serial number, and tracking requirements for arms sellers, why the Court likely wonât make an extreme decision, and how victims of this insanely criminal scheme are already taking action. After expanding on the particular role the extremist Fifth Circuit (Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi) plays in advancing these absurd cases to the Trump-packed Supreme Court, Mark and Sam dive into the potential play the Court might make regarding abortion access nationwide, and look to the potential bolstering of anti-trans healthcare legislation via US v. Skrmetti. They wrap up the interview with DeSantisâ legal battle against Floridaâs abortion referendum and the Trump Campaignâs ongoing lawfare to undermine and obstruct ballot tallies come November.
And in the Fun Half: Tim Pool loudly quits one of his shows to become a theoretical family man, Tim Walz discusses the Harris Campaignâs relationship to dipshits like the Cheneys and the Trump Campaignâs relationship to dipshits like Elon Musk, and JD Vance attempts to claim that Donald Trump â the Kleptocrat-in-Chief â isnât attached to monied interests. Kerry from New York and Sam unpack the relationship between masculinity, maturity, and comedy, MTG and the Trump Campaign start laying the groundwork for election denial (with some help from fair-and-balanced reporting by CBS), and Rudy Giuliani has to turn over practically all of his property to the Georgian election workers he got harassed. Alex from Boston explores some misunderstandings of the pharmaceutical industry, and John Kelly calls Trump a fascist, plus, your calls and IMs!Follow Mark on Twitter here: https://x.com/mjs_DC

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. But first, they speak with Anna Heetman, striking tenant and leader with the Independence Towers Tenant Union in Kansas City.
First, Sam runs through updates on US election polling, Israel and the Biden Administration, Israelâs potential attack on Iran, student loans, fake reviews, labor action with Kaiser healthcare workers, medical abortion statistics, and Trumpâs newest legal woe before watching Owen Shroyer demonstrate the rightâs new tact toward young men: trying to make women seem hysterical for caring about their rights. Sam also touches on some data around the public perception of the Harris and Trump campaigns, the importance of Harrisâ major social policy announcements, and the growing role of Gaza in certain swing states. Anna Heetman then joins, diving right into an outline of the ongoing fight from the Independence Tower and Quality Hill Towers tenant unions against the (ongoing) malpractice in the management, ownership, sale, and maintenance of their buildings, tackling the extensive membership of these tenant unions within the context of these towers, and walking through the laundry list of safety, security, health, and well-being concerns that has pervaded life in these complexes over the tenure of multiple owners. After briefly expanding on the chaos particularly brought on by the exploitative ownership of Parker Webb and FTW Investments, Heetman walks Sam through the major purpose behind this intensive organizing effort and rent strike, beyond even the more obvious material needs of tenants, exploring how this fight has highlighted the needs for greater regulation of federally-backed loans for property purchases, and rent control. Wrapping up the free half, Sam covers Trumpâs dropping poll numbers among his key demographics.
And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks the meeting all young male voters have been waiting for (Jesse Watters and Hulk Hogan), talks with Sam from Nashville and Bullprog from Minnesota, respectively, about (among other things) the wild zionist attacks on Hasan Piker, and watches Ben Shapiro show off his genocidal mania. Kowalski from Nebraska has some choice words about the âfruitsâ on the East Coast before unpacking major food insecurity crises in Sudan and Lebanon, John from San Antonio parses through the polls now ~13.5 days out from the election, and Eric Trump starts the war on Christmas before Halloween has even hit. Donald Trump waxes psychotic about Bobby Kennedy, and a bullet hole is revealed in Tim Sheehyâs supposed war wound story, plus your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam speaks with Grace Blakeley, English economics & politics commentator, staff writer at Tribune, to discuss her recent book Vulture Capitalism: Corporate Crimes, Backdoor Bailouts, and the Death of Freedom.
First, Sam runs through updates on the final 14 days before the US presidential election, Israelâs ongoing assault on Palestine and potential pivot to Iran, environmental disaster in Cuba, Elon Muskâs failures and fraud in his work alongside the Trump campaign, National Association of Letter Carriersâ labor news, Teslaâs regulatory problems, and the US economy, before diving a little deeper into the insanity of Elon Musk launching contrasting ad campaigns in Michigan attempting to stoke anti-Semitic and Islamophobic fears in Muslim and Jewish communities. Grace Blakeley then joins, first working to unpack the commonly accepted dichotomy between capitalism and a centrally-planned (socialist) economy, with the dystopia of socialism juxtaposed by liberalismâs vision of free-market democracy, before wading into the problems and inaccuracies of this binary, namely the fact that liberalismâs defining qualities (free-markets and democracy) donât apply to the existing capitalist societies of today (particularly the largest imperial powers like the US and UK), where wealth and political power are becoming increasingly concentrated in the hands of fewer and fewer elites, translating into what is essentially centrally-planned oligarchy. Blakeley steps back to walk through the evolution of capitalism to this point, tackling neoliberalsâ work to publically redefine a libertarian âfree marketâ as a return to natural systems, while elites privately saw it as an explicit vision to protect corporate power amid rising social movements, establishing clear economic norms against anything that could threaten privatization, the free movement of capital, and low tax rates, while creating international institutions (backed by the West) to dole out punishment for any revolutionary states that sought to challenge them abroad, before touching on the contrasting work of a Keynesian vision â backed by the working class â that pushed the idea of a protective state and well-regulated markets, and exploring the major success this ideology had in bolstering the US labor movement of the mid-20th Century. Next, Grace walks Sam through the eventual success of neoliberal theory with the regimes of Pinochet, Thatcher, and Reagan in the late 1970s and early â80s, and their overwhelming work to crush and fragment the working class and social power that had bolstered the social and economic progress of the century to that point, setting the stage for the solidification of the oligarchies we see today. After briefly touching on the value of a return to a more Keynesian vision for economies, and the central importance of revitalizing working-class power, Berkeley wraps up the interview by exploring a few other visions for strong, democratic, and worker-led economies.
And in the Fun Half: Sam unpacks Trumpâs most recent insult to workers (and whether that will even translate past the absurdity of it), and Elon Muskâs ongoing fraudulent and stochastic canvassing work for the Trump campaign. Obama walks through Trumpâs extensive effort to undermine the USâ capacity to respond to pandemics, and Jim Breuer does⊠something⊠but itâs definitely racist. The MR Team also talks with John from TBurg about Ohioâs Issue 1, Matt from Tennessee about the moral monstrosity that is Richie Torres, and Noah from Nashville on Harris and the Left, plus, your calls and IMs!Follow Grace on Twitter here: https://x.com/graceblakeley/
