On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Alan Dershowitz, Donald Trump’s impeachment lawyer and Professor Emeritus at Harvard Law School. He discusses the outcome of the 2020 US presidential election, amid chaos over the counting of ballots and mail-in ballots, and says Joe Biden has likely won the presidential election, that Donald Trump is likely to lose in litigation battles over the counting of ballots, Trump’s 300+ picks of judges during his term and whether he picked them as a backstop if the 2020 election went to the courts, his own view that Twitter is violating its own terms by censoring President Trump’s tweets, the omission by mainstream media of discussion about allegations against Hunter Biden, why Joe Biden is unlikely to change his predecessor’s policies on Israel, and much more! Finally, we speak to Vijay Prashad, author of ‘Washington Bullets: A History of the CIA, Coups & Assassinations.’ He discusses why US foreign policy is unlikely to change, regardless of whether it’s under President Biden or Trump, a new Cold War in Latin America between China and the United States, why CIA-linked assassinations help kill ideas, the killings of Burkina Faso’s Thomas Sankara and Democratic Republic of Congo’s Patrice Lumumba and how these events led to domination by corporations, how CIA-backed coups and liquidations have helped oppress working classes across the world, all for favorable conditions for corporations, and much more!
