    In the first part of the program we welcome back political and legal geographer Dr. Austin Kocher to talk about the immigration news that never makes the news. Dr. Kocher talks about overcrowded and deadly detention centers, the 287g clause that transforms your local law enforcement into ICE officers, the fundamental flaw in the US immigration legal system, and how we shouldnt think of borders as a matter of what they are, but rather what they do in service of the state. Next up, Mickey Huff sits down with frequent guest and political analyst Nolan Higdon to dissect some recent news, focusing especially on AI: what can history tell us about the unintelligence of artificial intelligence, how deep fakes are crowbarring the political divide even further and deeper, the corporate capture of the classroom, and more. The News That Didn’t Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy.

    This week, were covering two things youll never hear about on corporate media – or if you do, theyll be demonized: whistleblowers, and targeted boycott movements. First up, were joined by a Capital One whistleblower who talks about how the companys internal dealings with Israeli weapons manufacturers chafes against the companys external PR campaign of progressive and diversity politics. The whistleblower outlines the so-called proper channels they attempted to utilize in addressing their concerns, and what organizing work theyre doing now to hold Capital One accountable to not only their clients but to international law. Next up, were joined by two organizers with the Eject Elbit campaign focused on decoupling the Israeli weapons manufacturer from the financial institutions it relies on. Scotty and Liza share the BDS precedent for their work, recent wins, and upcoming goals. They talk about the medias framing of their work, not least of all using and twisting their Jewishness while continuing to silence and obscure Palestinian voices and calls for justice.

    First up, we welcome back to the program analyst and organizer Leonardo Flores to talk to us about whats really going on on the ground in Venezuela, contextualizing the push for oil, the drug fiasco that now even the DOJ admits as farce, and cutting through the thick sludge of US propaganda. Next up, I sit down with my cohost Mickey Huff to dig into some of the news that didnt make the news, highlighting the corporate medias tireless work in laundering war crimes even when the state admits it. Mickey and I cover some of the attacks on press freedoms here and abroad and how a truly free and independent press serves as a vital link between community and the state, making escalated attacks on the press a disturbing canary in the coal mine for not only our right to know but our ability to organize for our own best interests – we cant fight what we don’t know.
