Capitalism is failing, and the vultures are circling. We talk with Grace Blakeley, (@graceblakeley) author of Vulture Capitalism, about how the system is rigged for the rich and what it’s going to take to fight back. Later, Assal Rad (@AssalRad) dives into Trump’s legacy and future in Gaza and Iran, the possibilities of a new Iran deal, and Trump's alarming rhetoric on Gaza. This is a must for anyone looking to understand the fight against exploitation, inequality, and imperialism.
