Hot War To Go with Josh Gondelman & Kate Aronoff (Ep 249)

Let's cut through the bad takes about the supposedly monolithic LATINO VOTE. Immigrant rights activist Erika Andiola of the Young Center joins to explain how the Democrats have failed Latino voters while allowing Trump to set the tone of hate. And comedian Chloé Hilliard joins to talk about whether Democratic governors will stand up for their people against a fascistic agenda, and a look at the Dem on Dem blame game. Did they in fact abandon the working class? Biden's brain certainly abandoned his body.

Well this is it. The final week before the election and Donald Trump has made his bid to be the vilest candidate possible, with an "America First" rally at Madison Square Garden complete with hack comics telling racist jokes. Comedian Gianmarco Soresi joins Francesca to pick apart the scariest display of sad manhood, a CNN guest who went full Islamophobe, and the spooookiest parts of a second Trump term. But FIRST, Maurice Mitchell Director of Working Families Party joins to give some much-needed optimism about how of people power can and does defeat billionaire's checks. Plus his thoughts on how to build a viable third-party movement.

Trump supporters and billionaire backers are already preventing voters from the ballot. Over 850,000 have already bee removed in swing states like Georgia. In fact, all it takes is a "challenge" to a voter's ballot to get them removed unless they are physically present to reinstate it. Investigative reporter Greg Palast joins Francesca to discuss his latest documentary Vigilantes Inc. which details the history and present-day realty of vote suppression or stealing, and its racist roots in Jim Crow laws. Palast has been on the beat of vote suppression for decades and is STILL doing the Lord's work!

Two weeks until America could go back into its toxic ex, or elects Kamala Harris. Francesca feels the doom setting in, only to be saved by the power of two comedians: Pallavi Gunalan and Anthony Atamanuik. Together they look at Harris' path to victory, Elon Musk's somehow legal ploy to pay swing voters $1 million for signing a petition, and Trump's ridiculous economic plans while working the fry station. Finally, what do you think each candidate's final pitch should be to the American people?

Kamala Harris crushes Fox News interview despite some hard questions from Brett Baier. Donald Trump faceplants on Univision while everyday voters bring some excellent questions. Then the IDF kills Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, but Netanyahu wants to keep "fighting"? Why of course he does. Francesca breaks it all down with live viewers.

There isn't a housing crisis if you remember what the housing market does: delivers wealth to landlords. Providing housing is a distant second. Author of "Abolish Rent" Tracy Rosenthal joined Francesca to explain why we need to conceive of the struggle against rent as a class struggle, and organize as tenants. And comedian David Nguyen joins to talk Republican attempts to avoid election certification being smacked down by a Georgia judge, and Israel threatens to ethnically cleanse 400,000 Gazans in the North by issuing evacuation orders. And finally, three moments that prove that Republicans really know women!

Real immigration reform has languished under President Biden, and Kamala Harris could offer a new path but will she? Democrats have a pretty awful track record on standing up for immigrants, undocumented or otherwise, while the right has been busy dragged the whole issue to the right. They've built a whole fantastical infrastructure of lies about migrants: Eating cats and dogs, taking over buildings, bringing crime and using resources. Sadly, there hasn't been any countervailing narrative to push back against this demonization. Jacinta Gonzalez, policy director for the Latinx-led organization Mijente, joins Francesca to assess Kamala Harris' immigration stances and how to fight the right while pushing the left.
