Dark Brandon's Deep Cuts with David Dayen & Wajahat Ali (Ep 223)
Listen now
Description
Biden has been nibbling away at corporate greed ever so gingerly, but we rarely hear about it. That's why David Dayen of The American Prospect joins to wonk-splain how things are going with Bidenomics and what is at stake fiscally in November. But before that, Wajahat Ali joins Francesca to talk about the suspiciously timely TikTok ban the house just voted on, and why even a classic Nancy Pelosi-ism can't save the real aim of it. Then, who is the RFK Jr. voter? A rich suburban lady in an alpaca shawl. And finally, Trump-mates! The battle is on to be an American dictator's righthand punching bag.
