In the first hour, Rachel spoke with Political Activist, Organizer, and Radio Host Misty Winston about the Australian attorney whistleblower David McBride pleading guilty, President Trump's offensive against Julian Assange, and the bipartisan letter signed by US representatives that called for Assange's charges to be dropped. Misty explained why Barack Obama did not go after Assange during his two terms and how Donald Trump fell into the trap of prosecuting Julian Assange.
Rachel spoke with Former Senior Security Policy Analyst Michael Maloof about Israel's ethnic cleansing of Gaza, Israel's attacks on the West Bank, and how Biden has started more endless wars in his Presidency.
In the second hour, Rachel spoke with Author, Journalist and Geopolitical Analyst KJ Noh about his analysis of the Biden-Xi meeting, the topics the US avoided in the meeting, and how Taiwan wants to avoid conflict with China. Kj explained how the US avoided discussions on the topic of Taiwan with President Xi and the fact the Chinese are paying attention to who will win the 2024 election.
Rachel spoke with JFK Historian and Co-Host of “Strange Bedfellows” podcast Lori Harvey about the chances for RFK Jr disrupting the 2024 election, the American people have lost faith in the government, and seventy percent of Democrats don't want Joe Biden in the 2024 election. Lori talked about RFK Jr's support for Israel and how RFK Jr has performed better than Ross Perot.
