  • Mamdani Beats Cuomo . . . Billionaires Attack, and Democrats Punch Left (Again) (G&R 400)
    Jul 3 2025

    Zohran Mamdani's big win in the NYC mayoral primary has shaken the political establishment in both parties, with the GOP predictably shrieking hysterically about "Socialism," Wall Street trying desperately to find an alternative candidate, and the Dems, as always, punching Left and showing their reluctance to endorse him.


    And that's our segue to another Green & Red rant about the Democrats and the U.S. political system....

  • Purge Palantir Shuts Down Tech Fascist Billionaires w/ Planet Over Profit's Alice Hu (G&R 399)
    Jun 28 2025

    Billionaires are ravaging our democracy. One of the worst culprits is tech fascist billionaire Peter Theil. His company Palantir's technology allows ICE to identify, locate, and kidnap migrants en masse. Their spy-cop tools track activists and organizers. The IDF uses Palantir tech to commit genocide in Gaza.


    On Thursday, hundreds of activists disrupted and shut down Palantir's offices in New York City and in the Silicon Valley town of Palo Alto. This action is the launch of summer campaign called "Stop Billionaire Summer."


    In the latest episode, Scott talks with Alice Hu about the action and the Purge Palantir campaign.

  • How Los Angeles is Resisting Trump's I.C.E. Raids w/ Prof. Enrique Ochoa (G&R 398)
    Jun 27 2025

    Los Angeles is under attack by the Trump Administration. Every day we hear new stories about I.C.E. attacking, detaining and arresting citizens and non-citizens. But we're also seeing lots of stories of community resistance to the I.C.E. raids.


    In our latest, Bob and Scott talk with Enrique Ochoa about LA's long history of resistance and how different institutions (schools, LAPD, media, unions) are responding to this unprecedented attack on ordinary people trying to live their lives.

    Enrique C. Ochoa is Professor of History and Latin American Studies at California State University, Los Angeles. A native of Los Angeles, he grew up in the San Gabriel Valley and received his B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. degrees in History from UCLA.
