In this white nationalist fanfic we’re living in, Trump has put birthright citizenship on the chopping block. Traci Feit Love, President & Executive Director of Lawyers for Good Government joined Francesca to talk about Trump’s battle against the American constitution.

And journalist and producer of  THIS VERY SHOW Paige Oamek came by to talk with Francesca about Trump’s pay to play crypto dinner where the vibe was ‘sketch’. Plus Theo Von on Gaza and perhaps the most racist meeting with a foreign head of state as Trump goes full white genocide conspiracist.

From Biden's cancer To MAHA's eugenics, we're talking about the politics of healthcare... again. Beatrice Adler-Bolton is back to talk Medicare and the cruel budget that Republicans are poised to pass, but how Biden also oversaw the removal of millions from the program during Covid as well. Speaking of Covid, Dave Anthony is here to bitch about the vaccine only being available to the elderly and immunocompromised, and comes in hot with some hard truths about Biden's cancer diagnosis. Blue MAGA is out in full force tone policing anyone who asks us not to sympathy wash the former President, and they happen to have a lot in common with those blame anti-genocide demonstrators for his loss.... hmmmm coincidence?

Policing is deadly but it’s also making us less safe and sicker. Ronica Mukerjee and Carlos Martinez are the authors of All This Safety Is Killing Us, a book that collects clinicians and organizers and activists who believe in abolition – getting rid of a ruinous policing system – and building a healthier society for all. 

Then, is Diddy going to get a pardon from Trump? Sean’s team is certainly trying to make it happen. You know these abusers have to stick together. Maybe they can work on a new crypto scam together, since apparently the entire U.S. government is green lighting the crypto takeover. Bad boy for life, indeed.

As Trump unleashes ICE on workers, grandmothers, judges and mayors, what does solidarity look like. Comedian River Butcher joins Francesca to talk about these brownshirts gone wild and Stephen Miller explaining how the administration is trying to suspend habeas corpus. Also, a small victory in the battle for trans rights in Maine isn't going unnoticed by Republicans still hell bent on focusing on the wrong one percent. Then Jaz Brisack formerly of Starbucks Workers United joins to talk about their new book "Get On The Job and Organize" and how we should organize under a Donald Trump presidency. But first, Matt Lieb stops by to talk about the Trump administration re-igniting ceasefire discussions with Hamas. The proof is in the pudding but neither he nor Francesca are convinced.

ICE Director Tom Homan is threatening to arrest sanctuary city mayors. But don’t worry! Democrats are not taking this lying down… Actually, they are. Hakeem Jeffries thinks that Dems need to put a halt to going to El Salvador to rescue the migrants illegally sent to CECOT. Who is fighting for immigrant rights? Well, a Trump appointed judge in Texas ruled that the use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezualens is illegal so that's something.

Francesca also discusses Israel’s continued war crimes, this time attacking a humanitarian boat bringing aid to Gaza. Speaking of Israel, John Fetterman’s crash out is hitting all time lows according to a recent New York Magazine article. We are talkin’ refusing to wear a seatbelt on a plane level of meltdown.

The Meta and Google antitrust cases continue to move forward on Capitol Hill, despite all the kissing up to Trump Mark Zuckerberg and Sundar Pichai have done. Is a backroom deal getting done behind the scenes? David Dayen, executive editor at The American Prospect, joined Francesca to discuss.

Also, we are literally arresting judges who are upholding the rule of law now. Milwaukee county judge Hannah Dugan was arrested by the FBI for allegedly “interfering” with an ICE arrest. The fascism train ain’t slowing down, folks.

David Dayen - Editor of The American Prospect
