Frann Michel hosts this episode, which features these segments:
Zunes on Iran, Gaza, Colonialism: Laurie Mercier speaks with Stephen Zunes, Professor of Politics and Director of Middle Eastern Studies at the University of San Francisco, about recent protests in Iran, the continuing US/Israel genocide in Gaza, and US imperialism/colonialism.
Left and the Law under Trump: In their Left & the Law segment this month, Jan Haaken and Mike Snedeker survey the ravaged terrain of international, national, and local law under Trump 2.0. They take up areas where the courts have blocked the Trump regime's use of the National Guard and where popular resistance has been effective in exposing and in some cases blocking the actions of ICE agents. They also discuss the potential for the regime to declare martial law to forestall the likely Republican loss of the House of Representatives in this fall's elections.
