The Lever founder David Sirota returns to Bad Faith to detail his deep dive into the corporate-backed master plan to take over the country from its courts to its media. From the Powell Memo to present day, there is only one real story in American politics, and that's the role money has played in it. Could Zohran have won without public financing? How much hope should we read into the fact that Democratic establishment politicians are now publicly rebuking AIPAC donations? Is the pivot to anti-oligarchy messaging real? Or is it akin to 2020 Democratic candidates claiming to support some version of "Medicare for All" just to match Bernie's energy?
