  • Rep. Ro Khanna of California wants to be the future of the Democratic
    Party. But do his policies and votes speak to the base? Francesca asks
    the Rep. about his vote to condemn the slogan "from the river to the sea
    Palestine will be free", his worrying support for Prime Minister Modi
    of India, and what his vision of "progressive capitalism" would look
    like.

  • Remember when Republicans were going to "IMEACH BIDEN"? Whatever
    happened to that? Sam Seder of The Majority Report joins to explain the
    indicted informant, the 1023, and the absence of evidence not being
    evidence of absence or whatever Rumsfeld used to say. Then, Iran's
    strike on Israel has us all wondering if we're on the brink of WW3 and
    whether Biden has finally reached his limit with genocide. Then, Javier
    Milei and Elon Musk have a meeting of minds and dicks in Austin and we
    try and imagine "a worse duo."

    RO KHANNA HAD TO DIP TO VOTE, HE WILL BE ON FRIDAY'S 4/19 SHOW!

  • The rich coalesce around their bronzed boy in November, out of fear they would pay a cent more in taxes, despite having more money than God. Francesca breaks down just how and why the tax code is so skewed in billionaires' favor in an edition of "Class War." And comedian DeAnne Smith joins to talk about AI genocide and the attacks on DEI. Then journalist Arun Gupta breaks down the Israeli first responder/propagandists The Zaka Group, and why the story of "mass rapes" have been debunked but never retracted. Fun!

  • Israel's war crimes threaten to drag the U.S. into a hot wars in the Middle East, while a TikTok ban sparks a tech Cold War with China. Journalist and author Jacob Silverman joins Francesca to explain why a TikTok forced sale misses the mark on data safety while putting us on a path to a hostile future with China. Add to that the fact that a right-wing billionaire might be a buyer and the whole thing is a mess for average people. Then comedian Gianmarco Soresi on the blacklisting in entertainment over criticizing Israel, and why far right podcasters who've dabbled in anti-semitic conspiracy theories are now calling Israel's actions a genocide. Speaking of conspiracy theories, how bout that solar eclipse? What will happen...?

  • Why is Biden moving to the right on border policy? Author of Abolish ICE, Natasha Elena Uhlmann joins Francesca to discuss how Biden has continued Trump's draconian border policies and the latest bipartisan bill which she calls a "white supremacist wishlist" that effectively eliminates asylum. Then, comedian Brandie Posey is back to talk Trump getting out of paying his full bond and Israel freaking out over the most minor ceasefire resolution. Also, Congress just defunded UNRWA thanks to passing a $1.2 trillion budget and only 22 democratic hold outs. GOOD TIMES.

  • Biden has been nibbling away at corporate greed ever so gingerly, but we rarely hear about it. That's why David Dayen of The American Prospect joins to wonk-splain how things are going with Bidenomics and what is at stake fiscally in November. But before that, Wajahat Ali joins Francesca to talk about the suspiciously timely TikTok ban the house just voted on, and why even a classic Nancy Pelosi-ism can't save the real aim of it. Then, who is the RFK Jr. voter? A rich suburban lady in an alpaca shawl. And finally, Trump-mates! The battle is on to be an American dictator's righthand punching bag.

  • One of the most effective ways to resist Israel’s crimes is through Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions or BDS. Activist and artist Samir Eskanda joins Francesca to explain how campaigns to economically and culturally isolate Israel are winning. Then comedian Mohanad Elsheiky talks Gaza while on the precipice of a ground invasion of Rafah. Biden says there is no red line that would make him cut off weapons to Israel. And then Boeing's no good very bad week has us all scared of flying. And finally, a new game: Wrong Answers Only edition: Kate Middleton's botched family photo.

  • As South Asians rise to prominence on both sides of the aisle, The Nation columnist Jeet Heer explains the "Desi divide". For every Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy, there's a Pramila Jayapal and a Ro Khanna. And how is Hindu nationalism abroad impacting the diaspora at home? Francesca and Jeet dig in. Plus, the Biden administration is embracing ceasefire in Gaza? Or are they rebranding their "humanitarian pause" BS? Comedian Emily Van Dyke joins to make sense of Vice President Kamala Harris' most recent speech. Finally in an edition of "You Love to See It" activists worldwide are divesting from occupation, protesting the IDF and calling Joe Manchin a sick f*ck. Amazing stuff, guys.

Comedian Brooke Van Poppelen joins Francesca to discuss the Trump Lifestyle Brand, Nancy Pelosi's callous Gaza comments, and Ron DeSantis making some edits to his book ban. Then political reporter Dave Weigel on Nikki Haley staying in the race and the call for Biden to step aside.

  • Nobody wants to play Israel's sick games. Nobody except perhaps Joe Biden. As the southernmost city of Gaza, Rafah, is targeted by the IDF it is very clear that Israel never had any intention of rescuing hostages. Instead it was always about ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians in Gaza. Matt Lieb, host of the Bad Hasbara podcast and faithful husband, joins Francesca to talk about Israel's plan for 1.5 million Palestinians and the U.S.' pathetic ability to reign in their supposed ally. Then, Jon Stewart returns to the Daily Show and Blue MAGA is deeply offended that he would make any jokes about Biden. And finally, this Valentine's Day we implode the myths of the "love languages."

Plus, pundit and podcaster Jordan Uhl joins to talk about the Republicans' border BS (co-signed by Democrats) and how hilarious it is that the right is deathly afraid of Taylor Swift existing.

Tom Bonier of TargetSmart polling firm is back on the pod to answer these questions and take stock of the election 10 months out (!) Plus, comedian Yamaneika Saunders dives into the deflation of DeSantis, Moms for Liberty getting owned on national television, and three beautiful moments of heckling for good.

Ryan Grim, author of the new book "The Squad: AOC and the Hope of a Political Revolution", joins Francesca to discuss how corporate and foreign lobbies have tried to tank the progressive agenda. Then Dave Anthony of The Dollop podcast joins to talk about South Africa taking Israel to the International Court of Justice for genocide, and Trump enriching himself DIRECTLY from foreign governments while in office.

Paris Marx of Tech Won't Save Us Podcast joins to talk about how generative AI is not only undermining workers, it's massively reliant on fossil fuels and fresh water resources. And comedian River Butcher talks the upcoming Iowa Caucus, Nikki Haley v Trump on the Civil War and which of Epstein's former associates deserves a second chance.

  • Gird your political loins, 2024 has arrived. It's time to cut her off at the pass, to pre-empt, to make good on resolutions ... preferably ceasefire resolutions. Labor activist and writer Bill Fletcher joins Francesca to talk union solidarity with Palestine, how Biden might be coaxed to step aside, and why the antiwar lane on the left is so wide open. And comedian Will Weldon talks about sad centrists on Twitter and Senator John Fetterman's heel turn. Finally, some "Trumpdates" that include his stench, Vanilla Ice and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
    Featuring:
    Will Weldon, comedian
    Bill Fletcher Jr., labor activist & author
