Bonus Ep: Adam Johnson on Ilhan Omar https://www.patreon.com/posts/24735765 Jeff Halper, no relation, talks about what a one state solution could look like and the influences, besides AIPAC, that get other governments to offer Israel such unwavering support. Jeff is an American-born Israeli anthropologist, works with The One Democratic State Campaign, a Palestinian-Israeli initiative and is the founder of the Israeli Committee Against Housing Demolition. He's the author of several books including 'War Against the People: Israel, the Palestinans and Global Pacification," "Obstacles to Peace: A Reframing of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, ICAHD," "An Israeli in Palestine: Resisting Dispossession, Redeeming Israel." I chatted with him at the bookstore McNally Jackson on February 9th, one day before the Ilhan Omar tweet on AIPAC which was followed by a smear campaign against her. Stand by for a patreon episode with Adam Johnson about the media's framing of her comments.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

First, I tell Gabe about seeing a Joan Baez concert with the Clintons in the audience, which gets kind of awkward when Baez sings a song about a rape survivor killing her rapist. Speaking of which, we're in the midst of the 20 year anniversary of the impeachment of Bill Clinton, which was sparked by Paula Jones' sexual harassment allegations and wound up exposing Clinton's relationship with Monica Lewinsky and bringing Juanita Broaddrick out of the woodwork. While Lewinsky's case has been re-examined through the #MeToo lens, Broaddrick, who alleges that Bill Clinton raped her, remains ignored or smeared and lied about. I spoke to journalist Joshua Kendall about Bill Clinton's treatment of women and the multiple allegations of rape made by women we haven't even heard of.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
