Two time Texas Senate candidate, and friend of the show, Sema Hernandez joins us to discuss the reality of ballot access and viable alternatives to the one party system. Spoiler alert: I sound like a crazy person. Ms. Hernandez has run for the Texas Democratic nomination for the Senate in 2018 and 2020. In 2018, she garnered nearly 300,000 votes on a budget of $4,000 against Robert “Beto” Francis O’Rourke. His budget was over $4 million, barely doubling the votes Hernandez received. The 2020 race was an even bigger corporate grease fire as the DNC rounded up 11 candidates to crowd the field before confused voters settled on MJ Hegar. She went on to lose to Ted Cruz. Good Times…

Adrian Boutureira (https://rb.gy/gij2bo) joins us to discuss the epic failure of the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan from the beginning. It was never intended to fight freedom. We also get into the U.S. interventionist past and its attachment of lying us into it. Name a country, since 1950 the U.S. has made better? The U.S. will take theocratic fascists over benevolent socialists every day if it means 2 more points on the stock market. Adrian Boutureira Sansberro has an extensive history of activism in Central and South America, as well as the U.S. He was instrumental in Jill Stein’s Green Party presidential campaign in 2016. You will love this if thinking is your thing.

Friend of the show, Suhair Nafal joins us to discuss her landmark lawsuit with the Israeli Government. She was sued in California by the Israelis, under Israeli law. That it made a U.S. court at all is incredible, her victory even more so. She also shed some light on the latest eruptions of violence by the Israeli Government upon Gaza and Palestinians in the region. The United States, regardless of who’s in office, wholeheartedly supports the violence and apartheid, democracy be damned. Who’s wagging the dog? Are we the U.S.A. or the U.S.AIPAC? Ms. Nafal is an activist and has developed an incredibly significant online following, especially in matters of the Israeli Government’s wholesale slaughter and the theft of Palestinian land.

We get into the aspects of the two COVID bills the Biden Administration is touting. As chants of the “next FDR!” harangue the listeners of corporate media, we ask what were his predecessors like? How is it that the Democratic Party has genuinely failed to evolve from a pro war, pro slavery, pro bank party? There was a real left in this country once. We discuss that and where it went.

Just out of Facebook “jail,” Abe gets into what some may refer to as a hot take. Are online companies with government contracts in violation of 1A rights when they de-platform, de-monetize or ban speech? Since when are taxpayer dollars to go to contractors, acting on behalf of the government to surveil us, and then ban us from the public square? An earlier episode was entitled Alex Jones Can Still Flush a Toilet. Think about it.
