VOTE FOR THE WORST OF THE TRUMP ADMIN


James and Al welcome Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy to lay out the implications of our attack on Iran’s nuclear sites, explore the risk of blowback in the face of regime change, and investigate the role of Israel and our domestic MIC in our foreign policy.  They also examine the threats Trump’s budget bill poses to the country, particularly those who rely on social programs.  Then, our hosts discuss Mamdani’s win in the NYC Mayoral primary, and what his triumph over former NY Governor Andrew Cuomo means for the future of the party and who its voters will ultimately support.
