76. Is Joe Biden really the new Roosevelt?
Season 1, Ep. 76
•
When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez declared that Biden's administration had exceeded progressives' expectations, she caused fury: from some on the US left who believed it sowed undeserved illusions in the US President, and from conservatives who believed it confirmed his dangerous radicalism. What's the truth?
I'm joined by author Kate Aronoff and leading political organiser Waleed Shaheed to discuss whether the US left has won meaningful concessions, what the failings and problems of the Biden Administration are - and what strategy the left should now pursue.

09:35|Prof. Jason Arday was hounded to death after a media campaign so intense, so vitriolic, so unrelenting, that it went beyond what you’d expect if he was a Cabinet minister guilty of grave corruption or harm to others. But he wasn’t a Cabinet minister, he was a university professor the vast majority of people had never heard of, and he wasn’t guilty of corruption or harm to others.Israel ADMITS Killing Hind Rajab - But Is STILL Lying
