Aaaaaand we’re back to another disappointing and demoralizing news week. We’ll discuss how Israel slaughtered 60 Palestinian protesters and injured thousands, John Bolton’s threat to our European allies that choose to remain in the Iran deal, the diminishing prospect of peace with North Korea, and the sad fact that Gina Haspel will almost certainly be confirmed as the next CIA Director. We’ll also cover the DCCC’s corruption, Fox News’ overt propaganda, and one oligarch’s feelings about Bernie Sanders. Additionally, we’ll talk with Dianne Feinstein’s progressive challenger, Alison Hartson! These topics and more will be discussed in this week’s episode. Enjoy!
