    Elon's Tween Techie Coup with Emma Vigeland (Ep 266)
    Feb 5 2025
    It might not be Jan 6th, but an administrative coup is underway. And this times it's working. Emma Vigeland of The Majority Report joins Francesca to talk about the most fragile white nationalist billionaire commandeering the U.S. Treasury and eliminated USAID. And somehow Democrats and federal bureaucrats have allowed it to happen. Tens of thousands of jobs are at risk as a small cohort of DOGE techies infiltrate our payment systems and our personal information. So what are Democrats doing about it? And finally a spicy little convo for the piggies, some TYTea...

  • Let's Talk About DEI and Deregulation *FRANTASTIC FRIDAY* Jan 31st

    Let's Talk About DEI and Deregulation *FRANTASTIC FRIDAY* Jan 31st
    Feb 1 2025
    As bodies are still being pulled out of the water, Donald Trump had the audacity to blame inclusive hiring practices for the American Airlines/Blackhawk plane collision with absolutely no evidence. Beyond that, some on the left have fallen prey to the anti-DEI line as if DEI is some how a barrier to class struggle. Francesca debunks both Trump's myths, and the leftists who wrongfully collapse corporate decision-making with grassroots demands for liberation.

    The Right's Vision Board with Adam Johnson & Pallavi Gunalan (Ep.265)
    Jan 29 2025
    Get rid of woke early childhood nutrition! The Golden Showers era has definitely begun as Trumpers begin hollowing out the government by cutting federal funding from over 2,600 social programs. And Dr. Phil--another Oprah creation--is working with Border Czar Tom Homan to do ICE raids on communities, while Latin American leaders are strong-armed into accepting flights of deportees. Then, Adam Johnson on Trump's Gaza policies versus Biden's and why liberals' "I told you so" gripes are deeply misinformed.

    Anti-Abortionists Pardoned & Fetal Personhood *FRANTASTIC FRIDAY* JAN 24th
    Jan 25 2025
    If you thought the insurrectionists were terrifying, what about the 23 extreme anti-choice activists who kept fetuses in their homes?! Francesca looks at Trump's plans for people with uteruses, and how he snuck in fetal personhood into his anti-trans Executive Order. Then, some rich people are actually good. Actor Simu Liu openly says he doesn't need a tax break under Trump's tax scheme that is a direct wealth transfer from the poor to the rich.

    Executive Disorder with John Iadarola & Bill Fletcher Jr. (Ep 264)
    Jan 22 2025
    Not 24 hours into a Trump presidency and Elon throws up a very telling gesture. John Iadarola of The Damage Report joins to discuss the billionaire-back inauguration, the impact of Trump's revoking of birthright citizenship along with Congress passing the Laken Riley Act. Plus a look at Biden versus Trump on Gaza-- one ideologically committed, the other committed to nothing but himself. Then author Bill Fletcher Jr. joins Francesca to talk about where the left goes from here, building left institutions, the role of unions, and why we need to bring back the ideas of solidarity.

    Insurance Company CORRUPTION and The Worst Confirmation Hearings EVER *FRANTASTIC FRIDAY*
    Jan 18 2025
    It's the last Friday of the Biden Administration and Francesca is going out with a bang. First, we talk with Lois Parshley of The Lever about her latest piece on the insurance industry in California in the wake of the LA fires. Read her article here: https://www.levernews.com/we-will-all-be-paying-for-l-a-s-wildfires/ Then a fitting end to a genocidal tenure, as outgoing Secretary of State Antony Blinken has journalist Sam Husseini hauled out of the press briefing room. And Francesca looks at Zuckerberg's new fashy glow up and how his tune has changed over the years always in favor of money. And finally, a look at some lowlights from the Trump cabinet's nomination hearings. A bunch of peaked in high school dingbat loyalists are about to join the most blackmail-able administration in history. Frantastic Fridays on The Bitchuation Room are free to watch.
