Will Porter returns to the show to discuss the Trump admin's move towards war with Iran. The recent events happened under the cover of the coronavirus and got little attention in the MSM. Trump's civilian advisers pushed him to carry out strikes within Iran, and it was the military leaders - Secretary of Defense and Head of the Joint Chiefs - that disagreed with striking Iran. Fortunately, Trump decided not to strike Iran because of the corona outbreak. Will and Kyle explain how the instability in Iraq - and Trump's hawkish advisers - could eventually push Trump to strike Iran.

Scott talks to Gareth Porter about the New York Times' continued efforts to bolster the story that Russia both interfered in the 2016 presidential election and continues to do so in the lead up to the 2020 election. This time around, they allege, Russian actors are working on behalf of both President Trump, and also Bernie Sanders in the Democratic primary race. Porter reviews some of the reasons why these claims are spurious, and he and Scott rehash a few of the Times' other great blunders.

Discussed on the show:

"The New York Times’ Insidious Ongoing Disinformation Campaign on Russia & Elections" (Consortium News)

"The Plot to Subvert an Election: Unraveling the Russia Story So Far" (The New York Times)

"Same Goal, Different Playbook: Why Russia Would Support Trump and Sanders" (The New York Times)

"Pompeo and Netanyahu paved a path to war with Iran, and they're pushing Trump again" (The Grayzone)

Scott interviews William Arkin about his recent Newsweek article discussing the the government's various contingency plans—both public and secret—to keep a functioning, constitutional government alive during a national crisis. He is not so concerned about the introduction of martial law as usually conceived, which he considers unlikely, but worries about something called devolving succession, a process by which a group outside the usual, public line of succession could declare themselves a legitimate government. One problem with this system is that these figures are essentially unknown to the American public. Arkin believes that more transparency with respect to the government's succession plans would increase faith among the American people that they are in good hands in emergencies.

Tommy invited fellow truck driver, Gord, on to discuss panic buying, shortages, and obstacles truckers are facing in the wake of the Coronavirus pandemic.

On FPF #467, I discuss the deaths caused by coronavirus and US sanctions in Iran. The country has been one of the hardest hit by the outbreak so far and continues to struggle to import medical supplies due to the US sanctions. North Korean and Venezuela are in a similar position but so far have not had a serious outbreak of corona. Countries like Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Syria, Somalia, and Yemen are also at heightened risk as years of American warfare has wrecked the countries' medical and humanitarian networks.
