Vance over the ICE shooting of Renée Good and her subsequent appearance on The Daily Show. Jenin explains what it's like to have consistently defended the First Amendment and civil liberties throughout COVID, October 7th, & the current ICE raids -- even when these issues have taken on different ideological valences.

Founding director of the Critical Theory Workshop and professor at Villanova University Gabriel Rockhill is out with a new book that calls out many of the intellectual fathers of the academic left as insufficiently imperialist and often funded by the CIA. How have we been mislead by the "compatible left" -- a cohort of leftists that support marxism only in theory while inveighing against actually existing socialism? Where do Slavoj Zizek & Noam Chomsky fall in this analysis? How do we identify the contemporary "compatible left" in our media and political environment, and if the deep state is so effective at coopting left movements, what can we possibly do to evade them and achieve revolutionary change? This is a sprawling, three-hour episode you wont want to miss.

The team from the hilarious and incisive Bad Hasbara podcast, Daniel Maté & Matt Lieb, take a break from calling out Zionist lies to weigh in on how adult circumcision recipient and Bari Weiss' new pick to anchor CBS Evening News Tony Dokoupil embarrassed himself right out of the gate both substantively and aesthetically. We also talk the Venezuela-Israel connection, and whether the left must hand it to the "antiwar" right now that so many of them have decided that capturing Greenland/Venezuela is putting America first. And we accidentally spend a solid chunk of the back half of this episode dating the politics of Apple TV's Plur1bus. Consider it a break from this punishing news cycle.

Breakthrough News journalist Eugene Puryear returns to Bad Faith to discuss Donald Trump's illegal strike on Venezuela and capture of President Nicolas Maduro & his wife. He addresses mainstream media and Democratic Party complicity in supporting Trump's strike, the historical efforts of the US to control Venezuela's oil supply, and the longterm goals of US imperialism. But first, Eugene weighs in on Zohran's inauguration, Zionist police commissioner Jessica Tisch's demotion in Mamdani's administration, and whether/how the left can support electoral progress within the Democraric party without losing revolutionary discipline.

Investigative journalist Kit Klarenberg returns to Bad Faith to discuss what Israel's recognition of Somaliland and US strikes on Somalia have to do with the ongoing Gaza genocide and domestic attacks on Somalian Americans. Also, how does Israeli software offer backdoor access to your phone, and did AOC admit force the vote was a good idea?

Philosopher, author, and co-host of Dystopia Now Émile Torres joins Bad Faith to discuss his coverage of Noam Chomsky & the Epstein files before engaging in a broader conversation about Big Tech titans' emphasis on a dystopian transhumanism that's rooted in eugenics and an unfounded faith in their own genetic superiority. How should the left compete with this Silicon Valley vision of the future? Does it look like Star Trek? Plur1bus? Or Bicentennial Man? Is human extinction necessarily bad if our moral "accounting" balances the beauty of humanity against our capacity for cruelty? A fascinating conversation you won't want to skip.

Author and journalist Vijay Prashad returns to Bad Faith initially to discuss Venezuela but gets sidetracked by Briahna's frustration with several media happenings from last week: the Compact article "The Lost Generation" arguing that white millennial men have faced discrimination as a consequence of DEI, and Vivek Ramaswamy's New York Times op/ed that attempts to pull the GOP back from its descent into open racism, which often manifests in the use of anti-Indian slurs against Ramaswamy and Second Lady Usha Vance. The two do get to Venezuela eventually, but life is about the journey.

Jacobin columnist Branko Marcetic, Green Party Senate candidate and veteran Matthew Hoh, & Current Affairs editor-at-large Yasmin Nair join Bad Faith to discuss the controversies surrounding Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner in light of a new Politico article that dives deep into his background. Branko has written a piece for Jacobin arguing that the press is only telling a partial story about the man that is more unflattering for being incomplete, while Yasmin has written that he embodies a kind of toxic masculinity that the left is fetishizing because it thinks it will help them win. Matthew provides an example of a different kind of veteran who has learned & narrativized his past service differently than Platner. The three engage in a rich conversation about whether the left should embrace this candidate, whether it necessarily condones US imperialism by fetishizing veteran candidates, and more broadly, whether it's too willing to abandon its morals in order to "win."
