Rep. Ro Khanna of California wants to be the future of the Democratic Party. But do his policies and votes speak to the base?

Remember when Republicans were going to "IMEACH BIDEN"? Whatever happened to that? Sam Seder of The Majority Report joins to explain the indicted informant, the 1023, and the absence of evidence not being evidence of absence or whatever Rumsfeld used to say. Then, Iran's strike on Israel has us all wondering if we're on the brink of WW3 and whether Biden has finally reached his limit with genocide. Then, Javier Milei and Elon Musk have a meeting of minds and dicks in Austin and we try and imagine "a worse duo." RO KHANNA HAD TO DIP TO VOTE, HE WILL BE ON FRIDAY'S 4/19 SHOW!

Why is Biden moving to the right on border policy? Author of Abolish ICE, Natasha Elena Uhlmann joins Francesca to discuss how Biden has continued Trump's draconian border policies and the latest bipartisan bill which she calls a "white supremacist wishlist" that effectively eliminates asylum. Then, comedian Brandie Posey is back to talk Trump getting out of paying his full bond and Israel freaking out over the most minor ceasefire resolution. Also, Congress just defunded UNRWA thanks to passing a $1.2 trillion budget and only 22 democratic hold outs. GOOD TIMES.

Biden has been nibbling away at corporate greed ever so gingerly, but we rarely hear about it. That's why David Dayen of The American Prospect joins to wonk-splain how things are going with Bidenomics and what is at stake fiscally in November. But before that, Wajahat Ali joins Francesca to talk about the suspiciously timely TikTok ban the house just voted on, and why even a classic Nancy Pelosi-ism can't save the real aim of it. Then, who is the RFK Jr. voter? A rich suburban lady in an alpaca shawl. And finally, Trump-mates! The battle is on to be an American dictator's righthand punching bag.

One of the most effective ways to resist Israel’s crimes is through Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions or BDS. Activist and artist Samir Eskanda joins Francesca to explain how campaigns to economically and culturally isolate Israel are winning. Then comedian Mohanad Elsheiky talks Gaza while on the precipice of a ground invasion of Rafah. Biden says there is no red line that would make him cut off weapons to Israel.
