2024 Green Party Presidential nominee Dr. Jill Stein returns to Bad Faith for a two-hour breakdown of what really happened on Election Day. She addresses the gap between the CAIR poll estimates of the Green Party vote and the actual results, our country's inability to conduct ballot tracking, and whether the party will pursue a recount as they did in 2016. Moreover, Dr. Stein addresses pervasive criticism from the corporate center and the left, including concerns that the party is two "top town," lacking labor roots, and needs to be overhauled. Finally, what's next for the Greens?

Academic, author, & ordained minister Michael Eric Dyson joins Bad Faith to debate the merits of voting for Kamala Harris specifically -- and Democrats more broadly -- as increasing numbers of the party membership acknowledge that they require significant reform after their 2024 electoral defeat. Are those claiming that "Bernie would have won" in 2016 and 2020 right? Or is there a case to be made for the more centrist Democratic Party approach -- even now? Rarely is someone with as large a platform as Dr. Dyson willing to join a progressive podcast for a rich debate on progressive strategy, so this one is a real treat.

National Spokesperson for the Uncommitted campaign Hudhayfah Ahmad returns to Bad Faith along with independent journalist and founder of votepact.org Sam Husseini to address the recent controversy surrounding Middle East Eye's report that the Uncommitted campaign effectively "committed" itself to a narrow range of political action after it accepted $400,000 from a Democratic Party-aligned PAC with the condition that it could not endorse any candidate outside the Democratic Party. Sam. Housseni makes the case for additional leverage via "vote pacts" -- agreements between Red- and Blue-aligned voters who want to make a principled third party vote to cancel each other out so they can confidently vote their values. Also, what's next for Palestine protests in the Trump era?

So, Trump won. And we've assembled some of my favorite leftists to unpack why. Host of the Katie Halper Show and co-host of Useful Idiots Katie Halper weighs in on the left's predictions about the impact Gaza might have on this election and takes down the mainstream media narratives that emerged immediately following Trump's win. Independent writer Zaid Jilani, who hails from swinging Georgia, offers a unique perspective on the state, as well as the choice to prioritize identity politics over the material needs of voters. Last but not least, journalist Malaika Jabali offers insights from her on-the-ground reporting in Wisconsin-- a state that ended up being an underobserved harbinger of the future of the Democratic Party.

Renowned talk show host Tavis Smiley, formerly of BET Tonight & NPR's The Tavis Smiley Show, joins Bad Faith to give a firsthand account of the Democratic Party's attempt to bias his recent interview with Green Party presidential candidate Dr. Jill Stein.

Smiley also assesses the Harris campaign's approach to Black American voters via his new book Covenant with Black America - 20 Years Later, which assesses the progress (or lack thereof) Black Americans have made under Democratic leadership.

Political economist David Fields joins Bad Faith for a conversation that goes beyond housing policy to unpack the very roots of why the Democratic Party seems unable to provide basic improvements for working people -- even when they're in power. He clarifies the YIMBY vs. NIMBY debate, how YIMBYism has been appropriated by corporate developers, and how false economic narratives (e.g. the supply/demand curve) have been weaponized to justify real-estate lobby-approved solutions to the housing crisis.

Political scientist Aaron Good joins Bad Faith to discuss the deep state and his book "American Exception: Hegemony and the Tripartite State," in which he examines the relationship between the state, elite criminality, and U.S. hegemony. What is the "deep state," how has that term been misappropriated by the right, and how is the power of the deep state being reflected in the 2024 election -- both with respect to the choice of Democratic candidate and her policy priorities? Also, can the deep state be beat -- and if not, is it time to just say screw it and get an MFA for health insurance and a little structure while we work on our novels?

Attorney, writer, and podcast host Esha K. joins Bad Faith for a deep dive into how the US government has used culture to surreptitiously influence the politics of Americans. From funding art styles through patronage at major museums to consulting on action movies to recruiting artists to do worldwide tours showcasing American "equality," the government's interest in influencing culture raises questions about how invested the left should be in recruiting popular figures to advance our message.

Catherine Liu wrote the definitive case against the Professional Managerial Class -- a group of elite wage workers who tend to dominate media, politics, and other leadership positions due to their educational attainment and other class signifiers that set them apart from the rest of the working class. She has identified the PMC as a key obstacle to achieving substantive gains for the working class as a whole. But is that changing as economic precarity reaches more and more people, and as candidates like Kamala Harris reveal the emptiness of PMC identity politics?
