It’s a jam-packed show for today’s Emmajority Report, starting with some alarming news about the Trump administration cutting funding for vital research on women’s health. After that, Emma talks to Jacob Silverman about Donald Trump’s crypto shenanigan sand how the Trump camp is financially benefitting from manipulating the markets.

Check out Jacob’s latest piece for the Financial Times “Welcome to slop world: how the hostile internet is driving us crazy” https://www.ft.com/content/5d06bbb4-0034-493b-8b0d-5c0ab74bedef 

After that, Emma speaks with Abdel El Sayed, who has just launched his campaign for a Senate seat in Michigan and has the backing of Bernie Sanders. He talks about his experiences as a public health official and how they informed his political outlook and why he’s putting health care and particularly Medicare for All at the heart of his platform. He also thinks the Democrats need to do better when it comes to keeping groups like AIPAC out of their campaigns.

In the Fun Half, Emma will be joined by the usual Thursday crew, Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton. They check in on LA City Attorney Hydee Feldstein-Soto and why she’s being credibly accused of bias against the pro-Palestinian protesters she’s prosecuting. The gang also takes in Fox News’ response to the Irish band Kneecap’s anti-Israel protests at Coachella.
