It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Ryan Grim, reporter at and co-founder of Drop Site News, co-host of Counter Points, 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. Plus, your IM's!

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

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with writer Luke Savage, writer based in Toronto, author of The Dead Center: Reflections On Liberalism And Democracy After the End Of History, to discuss the current state of Canadian politics. Then, she speaks with Jeff Stein, White House economics reporter at The Washington Post, to discuss his recent multi-part series on economic sanctions for the Post entitled "The Money War." First, Emma runs through updates on the GOPâs continuing dysfunction over their spending bill, Trumpâs prosecution in Georgia, the Wall Street Journalâs major report on Biden staffersâ extensive work to downplay and hide the state of Bidenâs mental decline since 2019, the nomination of Pete Hegseth, Amazon teamstersâ strike, South Carolinaâs attack on Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood, Israeliâs 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 âPresident Muskâsâ public pressure campaign to get GOP Congresspeople in line with his spending plan. Luke Savage then joins, diving right into the dwindling support for Trudeauâs administration in the wake of a weak, nationalist-oriented response to Trumpâs threat of tariffs against Canada, unpacking the growing dissent from within his coalition before Savage and Emma briefly contrast his response to Trumpâs threats with that from the USâ other neighbor-under-threat in Mexicoâs 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 Trudeauâs, in particular) refusal to acknowledge the ongoing cost of living crisis and the failures of their economic agenda significantly dragging down NDPâs 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 Democratsâ recent failures in the 2024 election, Savage wraps up by tackling Canadaâs 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 â with Joe Biden taking Trumpâs expansion of the sanction regime to an entirely new level after Russiaâs invasion of Ukraine â 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 Bidenâs staffersâ extensive efforts â beginning in 2019 â to hide and disguise Bidenâs mental decline from the public, before touching on the continuing cult of senility around Biden. A Jersey caller unpacks breaking through the mediaâs commitment to Democratic leadership, Alex from Oakland unpacks Bidenâs plan to encourage AI data centers on federal land, and the MR Crew explores the NYPDâs ongoing crackdown on Amazon teamstersâ labor action. Timothee Chalamet pitches Theo Von on affordable housing in NYC, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Madi Oates, shift supervisor and bargaining delegate for Starbucks Workers United (SWU), based in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and Michelle Eisen, organizing member of SWU, to discuss Starbucks recent update to its parental leave policy. And then, Sam is joined by David Dayen, executive editor at The American Prospect and co-host of the Organized Money podcast, to discuss the prospects of the Democratic Party going into 2025 and beyond. First, Sam runs through updates on the GOPâs continuing resolution, the Matt Gaetz ethics report, the Fedâs rate cuts, Senate judicial confirmation, Lina Khanâs FTC, Luigi Mangione, Palestiniansâ and Palestinian-Americansâ suit against the State Department, Trumpâs legal woes, Amazon labor action, and the USâ TikTok ban, also expanding on the GOP infighting around the continuing resolution and Mike Johnsonâs 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 Starbucksâ workers as it provides for its executives, tackling the major exploitation and effort put on the companyâs 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 theyâve made in securing rights and fair wages for their members, before looking forward to the future of this fight, as Starbucksâ 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 partyâs 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 AOCâs 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 Democratsâ 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 Trumpâs plan to privatize the USPS, with some helpful confusion added by a member of the TimCast team, before tackling RFK Jrâs 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 NYPDâs 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!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Jasper Nathaniel, writer of the Infinite Jaz newsletter on SubStack, to discuss his recent piece in The Drift magazine entitled "In Ruinsâ: Archaeological Warfare in the West Bank." First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the GOPâs continuing struggle to get a continuing resolution, Pelosi blocking AOCâs run for Oversight chair, the Senateâs National Defense Authorization Act, Ukraineâs bombing of Russiaâs chemical weapons chief, TikTokâs Supreme Court fight, Trumpâs EV fight, RFKâs meeting with Senators, Trudeauâs shakey administration, US wealth inequality, and Josh Hawleyâs CTC for the middle- and upper-classes, before diving a little deeper into Nancy Pelosiâs (notably no longer a member of party leadership) torpedoing of AOCâs bid to be Dem chair on the Congressional Oversight Committee, and touching on Trumpâs 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 âJudea and Samariaâ 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 âfacts on the groundâ 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 Israelâs 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 Bankâs presence on supposedly âprotectedâ archeological sites. Looking to the supposed âauthorityâ that grounds Israelâs ongoing annexation of the West Bank, Nathaniel touches on the transferring of West Bank management from Israelâs Civil authority to their Archeological authority, before wrapping up with an extensive conversation on the overwhelming ubiquity â and banality â 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 Trumpâs recent comments on the relationship between vaccines and autism (and Foxâs unsurprising response), and watch CNNâs 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 âMinisoldrâ handle, MAGA freaks out over drone sightings, and Tim Pool has a boot to lick over Emma and Kyle Kulinskiâs Joe Rogan comments, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Stefania Barca, distinguished researcher at the University of Santiago de Compostela in Spain, to discuss her recent book Workers Of The Earth: Labour, Ecology and Reproduction in the Age of Climate Change. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the GOPâs government shutdown, ABCâs inauguration plans, Social Security, Trumpâs cabinet, Trumpâs plan to privatize the post office, Syriaâs changing political landscape, Gazaâs massive death toll, and McKinseyâs liability in Purdue Pharmaâs opioid case, also touching on preparations for Trumpâs authoritarianism and the centrist âNo Labelsâ partyâs struggles to not capitulate to the right. Dr. Stefania Barca, PhD, then joins, diving right into work on the broadening of âreproductive workâ â a form of labor regarding social reproduction and the socializing, educational, and care work required for it â 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 â be it green capitalism, environmental justice, ecomodernism or degrowth â 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 â in both social and environmental contexts â 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 Hegsethâs nomination, and look to history in their response to Marc Andreessenâs call for an antithesis to FDR. Jimmy Dore responds to Peter Hotezâs critique of RFK Jr. by⊠blaming the existence of polio on the polio vaccine, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Kyle Kulinski, co-host of the Kyle Kulinski Show & Krystal Kyle and Friends, to round up the week in news. First, Emma runs through updates on growing famine in Gaza as winter nears, Israelâs land grab in Syria, Trumpâs threat to Iran, Trumpâs advisors, Russiaâs invasion of Ukraine, Pelosiâs undermining of AOCâs Oversight committee bid, RFKâs newest vaccine objection (polio), Trumpâs banking deregulation agenda, and Macronâs 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 Maceâs complex and intersectional relationship with the bathroom, Democratsâ willingness to capitulate to and embrace Trumpâs fascist scapegoating of trans people and immigrants, and the importance of actually acknowledging your constituentsâ issues in winning elections. Kyle and Emma also tackle the absurd narrative about Trump and the GOPâs right-wing populism, parsing particularly through the facade of Trumpâs anti-war persona before touching on the pseudo-populism of RFKâs relationship with Big Pharma. Wrapping up, they unpack the state of âindependentâ media, the growing embrace of far-right lunacy as long as it comes with a billionaireâs 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 âDelay, Deny, Depose. You people are nextâ after being denied healthcare and Sen. Blumenthallâs Musk suckup, also talking with Jackson in Colorado about media comprehension in the US. They also watch Daniel Penny aptly thank the fact that âsomeoneâ didnât get hurt in his killing of Jordan Neely, and touch on the TYTâs floundering attempts to pivot right, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Majority Report with Sam Seder - https://majorityreportradio.com/
-
It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Michelle Phelps, professor of sociology at the University of Minnesota, to discuss her recent book The Minneapolis Reckoning: Race, Violence, and the Politics of Policing in America. Then she speaks with Gabriel Hetland, 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 "This Solar Panel Kills Fascists." First, Emma runs through updates on Bidenâs lame duck action, AOCâs bid for Dem lead on Congressional oversight, Metaâs Trump donation, Fettermanâs support for Trumpâs cabinet, Manchin-Sinema hand the NLRB to Trump, Trumpâs ICE reform, the Albertsons-Kroger lawsuit, LAâs new minimum wage policy, the NYT Tech Guild, and the UKâs puberty blocker ban, also watching Joy Reid and Elizabeth Warren unpack the dangers of the GOPâs attack on the CFPB. Professor Michelle Phelps then joins, diving right into the start of her research on Minneapolisâ 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 â and the global (and Minneapolis-based) abolitionist movement that followed â 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 Minneapolisâ 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 âNew York State Build Public Renewables Act,â 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 Yorkâs growing problem of skyrocketing energy costs and the fundamental fact of renewable energyâs 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 Fergusonâs dangerous blueprint for his FTC chairmanship comes out â and gives important insight into what âright-wing populismâ actually entails. Plus, your calls and IMs!

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

It's Hump Day! Emma speaks with Cole Stangler, France-based journalist covering politics, housing, and labor, author of the book Paris Is Not Dead: Surviving Hypergentrification In The City Of Light, to discuss the recent developments in French politics after a vote of no-confidence against Prime Minister Bernier. Then, she speaks with Katie Way, writer & editor at Hell Gate, to discuss the recent acquittal of Daniel Penny. First, Emma runs through updates on Israelâs land grab in Syria and food blockade on northern Gaza, Syriaâs interim leader, Luigi Mangioneâs manifesto, Trumpâs cabinet nominees, the Kroger-Albertsons merger, Saudi Arabiaâs FIFA World Cup, and Gottheimerâs governor chances get wrapped, also watching Matthew Miller continue to obscure US support for Israelâs unhinged imperialism with a smirk. Cole Stangler then joins, first catching us up to date on Franceâs unraveling government since his last appearance, with Macron following through with his refusal to name a left-wing Prime Minister despite the New Popular Frontâs (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 Penâs National Rally on the far-right and a multi-party coalition between the Socialists, Greens, Communists, and Jean-Luc Melanconâs 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 Pennyâs lack of remorse toward and consistent attacks against Neely during interviews, while the defenseâs ultimately successful argument hinged on pinning his death on drug abuse and sickle cell disease â a tact often employed by cops, as seen with the murder of George Floyd â and spinning witness accounts and the coronerâs report as the result of âpolitical pressure.â 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 Adamsâ and his Administrationâs use of this story to bolster his police-driven plan to solve (jail) New York Cityâs unhoused problem (people), as they wrap up the interview with the growing frustration around safe-blue state Democratic Partiesâ 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 Trumpâs impending administration as she watches Lina Khanâs 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 Kasparianâs âleaving the leftâ and Brett Cooperâs leaving the Daily Wire, and UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell lets loose on Elon Musk, plus, your IMs!Follow Cole on Twitter here: https://x.com/ColeStangler

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

It's News Day Tuesday! Emma speaks with Gregory Brew, analyst with the Eurasia Group's Energy, Climate, & Resources Team, to discuss the fluid situation in Syria now that rebels have taken control of Damascus. Then, she speaks with Thomas Birmingham, reporter and intern at The Nation based in New Haven, to discuss his recent piece entitled "In the US, Tenants Are Usually on Their Own. Can a New National Tenant Union Change That?." First, Emma runs through updates on the charging of the United Healthcare CEO killer, Pete Hegsethâs nomination, Lara Trumpâs future in politics, Pete Buttigiegâs potential governor run in Michigan, Tulsi Gabbardâs nomination, Bibi Netanyahuâs corruption case, Ukraineâs defense, Democratic leadership, Boeing layoffs, and wildfires in Malibu, before touching on developing succession drama in the Murdoch family and the right-wing mediaâs response to the killing of United Healthcareâs CEO. Gregory Brew then joins, first providing the context of the deep domestic unpopularity of Assadâs 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 â the Islamist militant rebel group that just deposed of Assadâs regime â 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 â with the former not seeming too displeased amid an already-crumbling relationship with Assad â while substantially raising the status of the likes of Israel. Thomas Birmingham then joins, jumping right into the major success of Bozeman Tenants United â the Montana cityâs tenantâs union â 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 rentersâ contract rights. Wrapping up, Thomas and Emma discuss Bidenâs 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 CEOâs killer â with some help addressing the âdeath of a villainâ narrative around this story from Ava in Miami. They also watch Ben Wiklerâs appearance on the Daily Show, plus, your calls and IMs!

Happy Monday! Sam speaks with John Nichols, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, 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, Trumpâs pledge to pardon insurrectionists, and Trumpâs developing cabinet, before parsing through Trumpâs inhumane and unconstitutional plan to end birthright citizenship, and Democratsâ failure to prevent this threat. Then, John Nichols joins Sam as he dives right into his recent interview with Bernie Sanders, unpacking Bernieâs major takeaways from Democratsâ 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 tacticâs success on the left, playing a particularly prevalent role in bolstering FDRâs progressive coalition and the major progress they achieved. Next, John and Sam look to Bernieâs 2016 anti-oligarchy candidacy, exploring how Democratsâ 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 GOPâs messaging dominance (see: Elon Muskâs Twitter purchase), before looking deeper into the contemporary examples for Bernieâs model â 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 â 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 Trumpâs 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!

It's Casual Friday! Sam and Emma host Jeet Heer, national affairs correspondent for The Nation, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Elonâs 6-digit spending spree for Trump, Pete Hegsethâs nomination, US healthcare, Trumpâs expanding cabinet of billionaires, the blocked release of the Gaetz ethics report, job growth leading into Trump 2.0, Russiaâs use of civilians for target practice, stalling Tesla sales, Israelâs most recent slaughtering of a humanitarian zone, and affirmative action in the US, before expanding on the coverage around the killing of United Healthcareâs CEO. Jeet Heer then joins, as he, Sam, and Emma dive right into the topic of Trumpâs anti-establishment appeal, unpacking how his cabal of criminals â albeit largely wealthy and establishment-friendly ones â 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 Bidenâs decision to run for reelection.
And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack the attempt to spin Pete Hegseth as the ânewâ 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 heâs 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!

It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with John Carl Baker, director of programs at Ploughshares, to discuss the ongoing political unrest in South Korea. Then, she speaks with Giorgio Cafiero, CEO of Gulf State Analytics & 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 CEOâs killer, SCOTUSâ oral arguments on Tennesseeâs ban on trans care for minors, Memphis Police discrimination, Trumpâs elite-led cabinet, questions about Tulsi Gabbardâs loyalties, Pete Hegsethâs myriad embarrassments, Israelâs genocide in Gaza, Trumpâs legal woes, and the future of Democratic leadership, before parsing a little deeper through yesterdayâs oral arguments for US v. Skrmetti in front of the Supreme Court, and the fear that they might uphold Tennesseeâs violently transphobic policy. John Carl Baker then joins, diving right into a step-by-step breakdown of how South Korean President Yoonâs 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 Yoonâs attempted coup, and to the overwhelming 190-0 (in an assembly of 300) veto of the Presidentâs 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 Koreaâs conservative ties to dictatorship, beginning with Japanâs brutal 30-year occupation of Korea through the end of the Second World War â an occupation bolstered by cooperation and support from conservative, capitalist, and right-wing Koreans â 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 Yoonâs 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 Yoonâs 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 Iranâs involvement in Hezbollahâs conflict with Israel and Russiaâs 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 Worthâs Stetson Kennedy recommendations, talk with Gary from North Carolina about the divide between Trump voters and down-ballot GOP voters, and admire Jane Fondaâs 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 Hegsethâs potential career, plus, your calls and IM!

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma discuss the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on Pete Hegsethâs character assassination, South Korean President Yoonâs failed martial law takeover and backlash, US v. Skrmetti, final US Congressional election tallies, Trumpâs 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 Newsâ 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 Hegsethâs own problematic history of critiquing Donald Trump, Sam and Emma parse through the background on Stephen Feinberg â billionaire investor, hedge fund manager, and Trumpâs pick for Deputy Defence Secretary â and his myriad conflicts of interest when it comes to the world of military contracts, also touching on the GOPâs slim Congressional majority and the major fights it sets up for 2025. Wrapping up, the MR Team highlights Ben Wiklerâs 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 âshared sacrificeâ under a crypto-backed austerity regime.
And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma parse through some unsurprising developments around which services Elon Muskâs Department of Government Efficiency can (Social Security) and cannot (military budget) cut, discuss the apparent murder of United Healthcareâs CEO, and reflect on the now-downtrodden legacy of Dinesh DâSouzaâs â2000 Mules.â Tim Pool struggles to grapple with the intricacies of language and social dynamics, and the MR Crew highlights a more heartwarming side of Kash Patelâs history, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Ian Millhiser, senior correspondent at Vox, 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 Presidentâs declaration of martial law, Israelâs myriad violations of their ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, the continued gutting of the IRS, US military domestic operations, Scott Walkerâs Act 10, the nomination of Kash Patel, Trumpâs plurality win, Dinesh DâSouzaâs apologies, Trumpâs threat to Gaza, US military aid to Ukraine, and Elonâs legal problems, also touching on Democratic Establishmentâs 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 governmentâs ability to restrict the rights of (and explicitly target) transgender people (a term first used at the Supreme Court in 2010), outlining the caseâs 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 Skrmettiâs connection to Bostock v Clayton County (2020) and the Courtâs 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 defenseâs conspiracy-centered argument about âtrans ideology,â and what a more limited (though still devastating) decision in favor of the Stateâs 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 FDAâs ability to regulate tobacco and tobacco products, first walking through the history of the FDAâs 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 â 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 Trumpâs 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 âlandslideâ and âmandateâ narratives about Trumpâs 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 âthreatâ 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!Check out Ian's writing on Vox here: https://www.vox.com/authors/ian-millhiser

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Rick Perlstein, historian, writer at The American Prospect, and author of his most recent book Reaganland: America's Right Turn 1976-1980. But first, they run through updates on Joe Bidenâs pardoning of Hunter, Trumpâs developing cabinet, Israelâs ethnic cleansing of Gaza and developing annexation, Pete Hegsethâs history of abuse, US arms to Ukraine, German VW workers strike, and the DNC chair race, before watching Kash Patel preview what heâll 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 Bismarkâs 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 âhealthâ, 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 â particularly when it comes to their insane deportation scheme â wonât undermine the administration or its support, and why we need to rebuild our societyâs trust in the governmentâs ability to help.
And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma discuss Trumpâs administration of âdeep-state disruptors,â unpack Bidenâs pardoning of Hunter, and parse through a former Israeli Defense Ministerâs statements on Israelâs âethnic cleansingâ 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!

Itâs 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, Trumpâs developing cabinet, Mexicoâs President Sheinbaumâs retaliatory tariff plan, the Trump transition team, Democratsâ growing number in the House, Amazon workersâ international Black Friday strike, the battle between North Carolinaâs governor and supermajority legislature, Maineâs lawsuit against ExxonMobil, Shell and Chevron, Pakistanâs crackdown on Imran Khan supporters, Ukrainian support for ending the war, and Trumpâs plan to further defund IRS enforcement on wealthy people, before expanding on the great politics behind the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire, why itâs a major win for Israel â especially in winning over Franceâs rejection of the ICC warrants. After watching notorious ghoul Matthew Miller explain why itâs 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 Democratsâ 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!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Richard Beck, senior writer at n + 1 Magazine, to discuss his recent book Homeland: The War on Terror in American Life. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trumpâs tariffs, Trumpâs cabinet drama, Trumpâs legal woes, Bidenâs gift to Trump, deaths under Texasâ abortion ban, Missouriâs ban on trans care for minors, Charlotteâs airport workersâ strike, bird flu, and Mississippiâs runoff election, before diving a little deeper into Bidenâs plan to expand Medicare and Medicaid to include weight loss drugs like Ozempic, Trumpâs 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 administrationâs 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 âowning the libsâ 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 âSpecOpsâ-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 Longshoremenâs strike, before diving into the continuing death and devastation coming from Texasâ abortion ban, and reflecting on Tim Poolâs 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!

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Mike Elk, founder of the Payday Report, to discuss the recent news out of Brazil that former President Bolsonaro has been indicted. Then, they speak with Jacob Silverman, co-author of his latest book Easy Money: Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud, and writer at the AM Quickie newsletter, 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 Israelâs destruction of Lebanon, Israelâs sanctioning of Haaretz, the Biden-Trump transition, Trumpâs developing cabinet, Trumpâs attacks on trans people, and Trumpâs 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 ICCâs warrant for the arrest of Netanyahu. Mike Elk then joins, diving right into the major developments in Brazilâs criminal case over the far-right (and Bolsonaro-administration-) backed coup and recently-revealed assassination in the wake of Lula da Silvaâs reelection in 2022, with the indicting of a massive portion of Bolsonaroâs 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 Bolsonaroâs coup attempt in 2023. Mike expands on Bolsonaroâs 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 industryâs 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 âfraudâ 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 Israelâs genocide in Gaza, Walt from Wyoming unpacks Progressivesâ 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!

Itâs Casual Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the indefinite cancellation of Trumpâs hush money sentencing, Trumpâs cabinet of rapists and fraudsters, the MTG-Musk-Ramaswamy connection, the Houseâs passage of the non-profit killer bill, Schumerâs weak politics, the divide between US-Israel and the rest of the international order over the ICCâs charges, Bolsonaroâs criminal charges, and UAW action in Kentucky, before parsing a little deeper through the vastly different responses to the ICCâs 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 Trumpâs 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 âcompetentâ 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 GOPâs 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 Yorkâs conservative shift and the future of the governorâs race, and unpacks the rampant bigotry of Nancy Mace and the rightâs desire to put queer people back in the closet, plus, your calls and IMs!
