Khrushchev gave Crimea to Ukraine, with the intended effect of binding Ukraine inexorably to Russia, "Eternally Together"as a poster of the time hearalded, so why shouldn't dumb neocons pay the price for destroying USSR: Russia "Stronger Together"!

Look at Saagar's interview on Iran with Giuliani for The Hill. It's an MEK propaganda skit and he's absolutely fawning over Maryam Rajavi. Or watch Anya Parampil's Rising segment where Saagar malfunctions when she mentions Gaza. Also Krystal Ball is (former?) Truman Project

@jason-h-5: I'll check it out thanks, any particular part I should focus on? -Robbie

another great segment, opened my eyes on Rising. i was so hoping it was a Thomas Frank offshoot. Will look for the China bashing I missed.

Andrew, Lucy, Theo, and Ben are all here to talk about Dan Andrews turning public housing into Dredd (2012), whether or not the contiguous United States will be here in a decade, and NSW Police making and selling their own drugs to stop drugs being made and sold.
***
Andrew, Lucy, and Ben take a break from spoiling the end of Uncut Gems to talk about hysterical, dairy-addled cops pretending to be poisoned to make people like them, and try fit the perverted French Canadians into existing show canon.

EPISODE 156: Strike Farce Dominion

Bonus Episodes

Robbie Martin goes solo on this episode of Media Roots Radio to discuss a wide range of issues and stories that slipped through the cracks on earlier episodes, delving into General Flynn's QAnon oath, Freudian projections of 'classical liberals' like Tim Pool who constantly obsess over what they see as an impending civil war, Tucker Carlson's head writer being fired over comments on a web forum and how his program acts as a pipeline for neocon war propaganda about China. Robbie concludes by going over recent escalations between the US and China and why these asymmetrical warfare maneuvers are largely going under the radar.

Assange Trial: Torture, Trumped Up Charges & A Warning to Us All w/ Kevin Gosztola

This week we look at Nelson Rockefeller and his time in U.S politics. We briefly cover the Rockefeller wealth and will take a longer look at that on a future episode. On this episode we dive into the policies of the republicans of this brief era and how some of them were more progressive than what democrats propose today. For this discussion we are joined by special guest Tobi Olowe the host of Impressions of America. At one point to take the focus off the US we spend a moment to discuss the UK’s Priti Patel. Enjoy! The following was mentioned by Tobi to add to our description. 

I think listeners should consider the biography On His Own Terms by Richard Norton Smith. For the early CIA stuff although we didn't get into it as much but Gerard Colby's Thy Will on Rockefeller political interests in Latin America. For the Rockefeller family perhaps the PBS documentary. Impressions of America is a history podcasts about US History since the 1960s. We have covered key conservatives including Nixon, Reagan, William F Buckley, Ayn Rand and their effects on American life.
