7/9 The Kurds Anarchist Liberation Struggle w/ David Graeber

July 9, 2018

Good morning, everyone, on today’s show, a pre-recorded interview with author David Grabber, (@davidgraeber) on the Kurdish forces fighting in Syria.

First, Trump shows signs of announcing SCotUS picks… hopefully he picks his sister instead. Then MAGA youth in Montana say mexicans are overpopulating us.

Then, David Graeber outlines why what’s going on in Turkish Syria may be the most important ongoing historical event. Graeber outlines the radical anti-capitalist and feminist elements of the Kurds. How anti-immigrant forces in Europe and America are working in sync with Turkish and ISIS interests.

On the fun half – Is Glenn Greenwald a Russian stooge? Jim Jordan attacks a seventh of his accusers. Huckabee says being anti-Trump is terroristic. ID Adam is patrolling North Carolina pools when black people use them, Cornel West stomps Tucker Carlson on his own show. Should the left be thinking about what “too much” immigration looks like?
