Donald Trump: destroyer of civilizations and learner of Spanish?

Trump praises Allah and says he's ready to bomb bridges, power plants, and civilians in Iran with reckless abandon. (Of course an hour after this recording he says there will be a two-week ceasefire. Apocalypse delayed!) Francesca discusses the nuclear ‘will they won't they’ with comedian Eddie Pepitone. Plus, Pam Bondi is the second Trump administration official to get the boot, and the second woman. This time however, a blonde! How could he?

Then we check in with the Real News Network's Michael Fox about Trump's new promise to learn Spanish and become the next leader of Venezuela (really!), the US strong-arming Mexico, and how the country has used sanctions to strangle Latin America for decades.

Is SCOTUS really about to let Trump overturn the constitution and let Stephen Miller decide who should be a citizen? We discuss birthright citizenship case with professional Supreme Court-hater Rhiannon Hamam. Then, we talk about the long on the long-smeared and often misrepresented Palestinian-diaspora.

Plus establishment Dems and Zionist media figures spin out about Hasan Piker and draw a line in the sand with them on the other side.

And while all AI is terrible, something about Iran AI propaganda hits a bit different as Hegseth deploys more troops to the Middle East. 

Featuring:

Rhiannon Hamam, podcast host of 5-4 podcast and Popular Cradle podcast (51:10)

Marissa Roy, who joined us for the LA live show, is BACK to talk about why being the city's lawyer is secretly one of the most important positions in city government. How has the current the LA City Attorney blocked affordable housing and possibly turned a blind eye to greedy landlords, abusive police, and bad bosses? And how will DSA-endorsed Roy change that?

Spring break? Don't worry about missing your flight, 'cause Trump made sure to send thousands of alcoholics to stand around and play Candy Crush in the nation's busiest airports.

Plus, why are right-wingers freaking out about Hasan Piker’s "5 star" Cuban hotel stay? Professor Christy Thornton (14:45), fresh back from a solidarity-humanitarian mission to Cuba breaks down the misinformation and explains just how existential this current crisis is to the country. Get involved with the National Network on Cuba to join a solidarity mission yourself.  

Then, former congresswoman (and future congresswoman!) Cori Bush (52:40) joins to talk about her campaign running against AIPAC-backed Wesley Bell. She talks about her agenda if elected back into office, as well as lessons learned for Democrats from 2021 to 2024.

Are AI-powered cameras watching your every move? Journalist Jason Koebler from 404 Media joins to explain how a creepy company called “Flock” is partnering with ICE and police to build a nationwide database. Plus, we discuss how AI slop is destroying the internet and our economy.

Then creator and streamer Caroline Kwan joins to talk warmongers, apolitical Oscar winners, and the first (perhaps only) Trump resignation: a counterterrorism director who’s had it with the war of choice on Iran. Is he a baddie or a baddie?
