Part 1:
We talk with Ryan Cooper, Senior Editor at the American Prospect.
We discuss war on wind power electricity generation. In Rhode Island, 80+ % of an offshore wind turbine project has been installed. Trump ordered it to be stopped. This, in light of the ever greater need for electricity in the US.
Part 2:
Our guest is Prof. Jonathan Feingold, and this is Race Class.
Ep. 42 | Trumps Racism is Ends and Means

In this episode, Arnie and Jon discuss how the Trump regime sees racism as both an end goal and a means to realize a whole slew of fascist desires. As to the end, we are witnessing an unrelenting campaign to entrench a racial order defined by white supremacist ideals that trace to antebellum America. The erection of confederate monuments, the erasure of Black history, the claim that race is biological, and the lawless kidnapping of people of color all serve this agenda. But Trump is also wielding racism to discredit political opponents, defund public education and redirect billions of dollars to allies " all in the service of Trump-style grift and a fascist politics designed to crush our communities and concentrate power in the privileged few.
