Go see Palestine 36. Before the U,S, it was Britain that helped shape Zionism into the colonial force it is. Palestine 36, a new film from Watermelon Pictures, dramatizes a pivotal moment in the country, when Palestinians rose up en masse against British partition and the loss of their land to  Zionist forces.

A hundred years later, the song remains the same. Filmmaker Annemarie Jacir joins Francesca to talk about what her moving piece of historical fiction tells us about early colonialism of Palestine, and how anti-Arab racism has always been central to the program of ethnic cleansing.

Pete Hegseth declares V for Victory in Iran, but on what grounds? Seems like Iran has had the upper hand even on AI-produced propaganda. Then, Melania Trump addresses the nation about lies that are being spread about her relationship with Jeffery Epstein. Only problem is, we have no idea what she’s referencing unless she’s getting way ahead of an incoming bombshell.

Then, the California governor’s race is an absolute mess as two Republicans gain traction in a 61-way jungle primary HAPPENING ON JUNE 2ND.  Congressman Eric Swalwell is being accused by multiple staffers of sexual misconduct, and Katie Porter can’t seem to get it together. Does that leave us with billionaire Tom Steyer? GASP.

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?
