Kyrsten Sinema Once Called Joe Lieberman “Pathetic.” Now He’s Coming to Her Defense | MOTHER JONES: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2021/06/kyrsten-sinema-once-called-joe-lieberman-pathetic-now-hes-coming-to-her-defense/
Sam Seder: Hey, you guys remember Kyrsten Sinema? No, no, not that Kyrsten Sinema. You're thinking of the Kyrsten Sinema that you heard from a couple of weeks ago. I'm talking about the other Kyrsten Sinema. These are different people, right? Because we have this footage of Kyrsten Sinema who blasted the false pressure to get 60 votes, who was looking at this whole filibuster thing as like, as a joke. This is 2010. Do we have the same... Oh! Wait. Is this Kyrsten Sinema? And the new one is Kyrsten Sinema? Oh, they're both Kyrsten Sinema??
Kyrsten Sinema: So what does that mean? Well, in the Senate, we no longer have 60 votes. Someone argued that we never had 60 because one of those was Joseph Lieberman. But! That's whatever. Um, yeah and nelson, too.
Sam Seder: Now she's crapping on Joseph Lieberman, and I give her points. Whoever this person is, Joseph Lieberman incidentally is the one of the chairs of the No Labels caucus organization, outside expenditure organization, that's where that Joe Manchin tape leaped from, uh, leaked from the other day.
I don't know who this uh this woman is but i would vote for her for Senate. Go back and start it up again.
Kyrsten Sinema: Whatever. Um, yeah, and nelson, too. But really, Lieberman. So now there's, I think as the president so eloquently said on Wednesday there's none of this pressure, this false pressure, to get to 60. So what that means is that the Democrats can stop kowtowing to Joe Lieberman and instead seek other avenues to move forward with health reform and so it's likely that the senate will move forward with a process called reconciliation, which takes o

Ussama Makdisi, professor of history at the University of California, Berkeley, discusses the subject matter of his book Age of Coexistence: The Ecumenical Frame and the Making of the Modern Arab World.

Ussama Makdisi then joins, diving right into the deep historical context of the case against Israel at the ICJ, looking first at the roots of Zionism in the 1800s as a response to intense antisemitism in Europe, and as a project that took inspiration from Europe in its nationalist, colonialist solution. Expanding on this, Professor Makdisi explores the prevalence of multi-religious coexistence across the Middle East in that era, particularly between Arabs and Jews, how that extended to Palestine, and the culture of denialism around both pre-Nakba Palestinian culture, and the Nakba itself, before touching on the roots of said issues in the west’s Islamophobia, and antisemitism. After briefly touching on the inspiration Israel takes from the white supremacist regimes of South Africa and Jim Crow USA, Ussama and Emma discuss the establishment of Israel within the context of Europe’s greater colonial project in the Middle East, before wrapping up the interview by touching on South Africa’s case at the ICJ.

Emma hosts Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, writer of The Incision newsletter on Substack, to discuss his recent book Medicare For All: A Citizen’s Guide, that he co-authored with Dr. Micah Johnson, which explores the story of M4A through three parts: a diagnosis and history of the problem, the policy behind M4A, and the politics around it. Emma and Dr. El-Sayed first cover the general structure of our healthcare industry, with a particular focus on the roles of copays and deductibles in garnering profits for insurance companies, while also being the cause of around two-thirds of US bankruptcies, before they walk us through the history of the discourse on national health insurance. Starting with the 1900s progressive era, Abdul and Emma discuss the partnership between Baylor hospital and a local teachers union that was the blueprint for our current structure, eventually becoming Blue Cross Blue Shield, the WW2 wage freeze that initiated employer benefits, as well as the political fights for nationalized health insurance, including Truman in the 40s, Ted Kennedy’s push under Nixon, and LBJ’s success establishing medicare. After digging into the big adversaries for a single-payer system, looking at the lobbying groups led by doctors in the earlier 20th Century, and the coalescence around insurance agencies and big pharma as small business practices have become less and less common, Emma and Dr. El-Sayed look into the destructive capacity of the localized monopoly model under health insurance, and the drastic growth in efficiency, affordability, and prevention that we would see under a monopsony model. They round out the interview by looking at M4A’s recent step into mainstream politics, and unpack the shortcomings of the contemporary arguments against it. Emma wraps up the first half by covering the devastating developments of the delta variant, the continued pushback against mask mandates, and Dan Crenshaw’s frustration with election truthers.
And in the Fun Half: @Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton join Emma as they chat about Mike Lindell’s symposium, both the Zoom crashes and MyPillow coupon booms, and the thought process that might be behind his mass bounty to disprove his election fraud data. They also look into Tucker’s victim-blaming, standing by known retaliator Andrew Cuomo as he faces controversy Fox news hosts are all too familiar with (sexual assault and hiding covid deaths), as well as Andrew Yang’s attempted union between UBI’s stability, and cryptocurrencies complete instability. Weston from Sacramento explores our employers’ desires to get us back to work, plus, your calls and IMs!
