This week Brie is joined by a stacked panel of journalists -- Irami Osei-Frimpong, Q Anthony Ali, & Zaid Jilani -- to discuss the new divide on the right that emerged after Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy defended the use of H1-B visas to import labor from India for tech jobs. Conservative opponents of these visa recipients find themselves making populist arguments decrying the downward pressure on American wages and the competitive disadvantage college debt causes for American workers. But at the same time, they engage in racist anti-Indian stereotyping. Are Elon and Vivek right about American culture making workers too apathetic and less competitive? Do Americans suffer from watching too much Saved by the Bell and not enough Whiplash (a real argument made by Vivek)? And does this discourse provide an opportunity for the left to provide a material anaysis that could start to draw right populists to the left?

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.
