Cheney's Funeral Brings All the Ghouls to the Yard w/Wajahat Ali
Rachel Maddow and Anthony Fauci walk into a war criminal’s funeral… we wish this was a joke. Wajahat Ali joins Francesca for a Thursday show looking at the rise of the anti-Israel sentiment on the right and how Democrats need to seize this moment or get Nick Fuentes’ed. Then, a former Obama speech writer goes on a unhinged rant about how the lessons from the Holocaust only apply to Jews and not to any other people who are persecuted, suffering, or starving.
Featuring:
Wajahat Ali, The Left Hook

Marjorie's Apologies and Hegseth's Fragility w/ John Hastings & Jasper Craven (Ep 308)
What makes an unrepentant misogynist? This is the question we dig into with reporter Jasper Craven as we go down the rabbit hole of Pete Hegseth’s twisted military mind and the coming ‘Forever War’ in Venezuela.
Then the House votes to release the Epstein files, which includes wild text messages from Epstein to a Democratic lawmaker that show how much he was working to undermine Trump. Trump off’ed him! Come on! We unpack the latest from the Epstein saga with comedian John Hastings, and MTG's “Sorry For Being Trash” apology tour and what she really wants out of all of this.
Plus, why can’t politicians from either side of the pond speak to immigration in a way that humanizes immigrants!?
Then, Francesca interviews journalist Jasper Craven about his writing about Pete Hegseth's lore and what his story tells us about American masculinity and the military. Plus, just how many wars are we getting into?

John Hastings, comedian (04:48)

The Right’s Civil War Over Israel
*Become a patron to get Francesca's exclusive postscript*
MAGA rarely disagrees. But blind support and billions of dollars to Israel is becoming a wedge issue on the right, just as it is on the left. Only very very different. Marjorie Taylor Greene, Candace Owens, and Tucker Carlson are all openly speaking out against Israel much to the chagrin of conservative and Christian Zionists. Francesca explains the rift between neoconservatives and the growing chorus of “groypers” who are actually antisemitic.
Republicans have rarely questioned supporting military aggression abroad. But after two years of a genocide the public opinion around Israel among the conservative base is shifting rapidly. And politicians and podcasters are fanning the flames.
It all came to a head when Tucker Carlson interviewed Holocaust denying white nationalist Nick Fuentes and had very little pushback. That somehow was a bridge too far for some conservatives and now people like Ben Shapiro are trying to put the hateful cat back in the bag. One they have let out over and over again.
While the left and students protesting against war have been called antisemitic by the media, or detained for speaking out, there is real antisemitism growing unabated on the right. Will the establishment do anything to change course?
Who will win this war or has it already been won?
00:00:00 INTRO
00:03:00 THE LEFT HAS ALWAYS BEEN BETTER ON ISRAEL
00:05:20 THE RIGHT HISTORICALLY LOVES ISRAEL
00:08:53 THE RIGHT BECOMES ANTI-ZIONIST?
00:10:56 THE TIDE OF PUBLIC OPINION
00:12:46 IT’S ANTI-ESTABLISHMENT TO BE ANTI-ZIONIST
00:16:37 IDENTITY POLITICS
00:19:47 CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM
00:21:48 PURE ANTISEMITISM

Bubba and Trump Sitting in The Epstein Files w/ Emma Vigeland (Ep 307)
Does Putin have photos of Trump fellating Bill Clinton? Cause… we never want to see them. This week has been a wild political whiplash from the cowardly Democrats to new kompromat, this week has been political whiplash. Luckily Emma Vigeland of The Majority Report joined Francesca to talk about it all --- 'cuz the shutdown may be over, but the lingering bitterness over the Democrats total collapse remains.
Their one saving grace is 20,000 emails from convicted sex trafficker Jeffery Epstein that truly are a treasure trove of Trumpian ties. Emma and Francesca take stock of it all, including Epstein’s Israeli intelligence ties and Megyn Kelly’s truly heinous take.

Trump is fast-tracking major rulings on trans rights, deploying the national guard, voting rights, tariffs and more through the billionaire-beholden Supreme Court. Pema Levy of Mother Jones joins to explain everything the court has taken up and how the court is remaking multiracial American democracy in real time.
But first, Olayemi Olurin joins to talk about what Zohran’s win means for New York and the self-outing of Nicki Minaj as being MAGA. Also a little Steve Carrell in his silver fox era love.
