Donald Trump will probably win re-election because of voter suppression. Investigative journalist Greg Palast has uncovered the disturbing fact that tens of millions of voters have been purged from voter rolls, using sometimes discriminatory tricks. Anders Lee reminds you of all this with the message, “I just want legitimate elections. We all have the right to participate in our democracy.” NY Governor Andrew Cuomo continues to fail in his response to coronavirus, workers are striking and engaging in rent strikes across the country, protesters fight against the stay-at-home orders, an impending famine that the US could stop (multiple times over), and more.
Anders Lee reports on how coronavirus has acted as a distraction in Israel. Benjamin Netanyahu’s corruption trial has stalled, and Israel has moved even further forward on its settlement on Palestinian land. Naomi Karavani sits down with Lee to discuss a few stories. She looks at the companies that are doing well from the coronavirus bailout and what is happening to striking workers across the country.
