Comparing Authoritarian Trajectories (Brazil, Argentina, U.S.)

It's News Day Tuesday on the Majority Report

On toady's show:

Senator Chuck Schumer and Representative Hakeem Jeffries held a post-meeting press conference with Trump, where they declined to warn the public about the dangers of the spending bill and instead focused on procedure and decorum. Hours later, Trump posted a racist AI-generated video depicting Jeffries in a sombrero. The next day, Jeffries responded with a hollow display of self-serving bravado.

Argentine historian and chair of the History Department at the New School, Frederico Finchelstein joins the program to discuss the Trump's administrations bail out of Milei's Argentina.

In The Fun Half:

Illinois governor JB Pritzker urges people to film, document and narrate ICE activities as the only way to hold these abusers to account is to have it on film.

Pete Hegseth holds military top brass hostage as he performs his one-man show on the Warriors Ethos.

Trump closes out the Hegseth rally with a sleepy, confused ramble about stairs and fascism.

Ezra Klein doubles down on his claim that Democrats should run pro-life candidates in red states in a conversation with Ta-Nahisi Coates.
