Republicans in battleground states like Georgia are laying the groundwork for a contested election. Journalist Ari Berman explains that through election boards shenanigans, voter purges, and cumbersome last-minute laws, Republicans are hoping that this time around they can delay and spread enough disinformation to swing the election to Trump. Then, comedian Jamie Loftus joins to talk Iran striking Israel, Israel invading Lebanon and the ongoing fits and starts of an all-out regional war. Plus, Hurricane Helene gets politicized while people drown, and a special Eric Adams edition of The Cringey's.

This episode is ALL ABOUT LOVE. Many bell hooks references and so much critical conversation with the inimitable Laverne Cox: four time Emmy-nominated actress, Emmy winning documentary film producer and a prominent equal rights advocate. Laverne joined to talk all about the backlash to transgender visibility and transgender acceptance, in the form of draconian anti-trans laws around sports, healthcare and identification. She and Francesca talk about how the progressive left must stand up for human rights through our language and our actions, working to re-humanize a community that has been so obsessed over and treated as less than. It was spiritual, beautiful, and honest. Also, did we know Laverne is a lefty? Okur!

It's all fun and eating cats until 33 bomb threats are called into a single town. Springfield has been reeling since JD Vance and Donald Trump made it the center of their racist anti-immigrant crusade. Author Talia Lavin joins to talk about how what the Haitian migrants have been subjected to is none other than pogram-like tactics: lies then violence. Then, Nation journalist Sarah Lazare joins to talk about Kamala Harris refusing to break from Biden's genocide-enabling policies, and the latest IDF murder of a protester in the West Bank. This time an American, Aysenur Eygi, who was doing the most brave of actions and bearing witness to Israeli settler and army violence. Then a round of "Loomey Tunes" with Trump's latest "it" girl, Temu Melania, conspiracy Karen, Laura Loomer.

What did we just watch? Vice President Harris pummeled Donald Trump on issue after issue as the old guy could barely keep a thought straight in his own head. He had nothing but wild claims about migrants eating pets, transgender surgeries in prisons, and a whole lot of running from his own record. But hey at least there's the "concepts of a plan" on healthcare. Meanwhile, how did Kamala Harris do? Sneak disses and policy proposals. Hate to say it but she kind of crushed.

Trump proved how deeply unserious he is about winning in November, and yet, somehow the polling is still close. Francesca was joined by comedians Brandie Posey and Nato Green to look at the highlights and lowlights of the second and by far much better presidential debate.

How has terrible U.S. policy in Latin America led to waves of predictable migration? Michael Fox, author and host of the podcast Under the Shadow, joins Francesca to discuss how Latin America has been forever caught between neoliberal economic "development" or flat out coups, but never able to truly be sovereign. Plus a look at VERY COOL SMART BUSINESS DUDE Elon Musk's battle with the Brazilian courts over the banning 7 misinformation accounts. Also, Francesca explores Trump always-shifting abortion rights stances, and this week's very tough choice of "Cringeys".

On this very Frantastic Friday, Francesca plucks a few choice moments from Kamala Harris and Tim Walz's interview with CNN to dissect. Specifically her thoughts on immigration, Gaza, and whether she is flip flopping now that she is running in a general election. Short answer:

yes. The overall takeaway is, who is Kamala Harris really? What kind of administration will she run? We simply do not know but we sure as hell know it won't be Trumpian chaos.

The DNC is over and the good vibes campaign can only last so long even though it's better than Trump's creeptastic candidacy. Alex Shepard of The New Republic Magazine joins Francesca to assess whether the DNC reflects the Democrats are becomig more progressive, and the pivot of the Harris campaign toward positive messaging, despite their clear fumbling of the Palestinian speaker. Comedian Karinda Dobbins is also back to talk RFK Jr.'s whale of an endorsement, and Trump's latest idea for a "sPaCE nATioNaL GUarD" and the dawn of AI policing. Finally, a game where we enact our most 'out-there' dream legislation.
