Lost Debate - Ceasefire, Trump’s First Week, Wildfire Politics
Ravi welcomes Bradley Tusk back to the show for a wide-ranging conversation on some of today’s most pressing issues. They kick things off with an analysis of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal, exploring the geopolitical forces at play and the role Trump’s impending return to the White House may have had on its timing.
They then shift focus to New York City politics. Can Eric Adams pull off a reelection, or is Andrew Cuomo poised for a comeback? Ravi and Bradley tackle the city’s pressing challenges, from safety and quality-of-life issues to outdated scaffolding laws, all while looking ahead to the next mayoral race. Finally, they turn to the wildfires still ravaging Southern California, examining the political and logistical fallout of the fires and its impact on city governance.

What's next for labor under Trump? Biden's reputation as the most pro-union President in a generation took a hit with his opposition to the railroad strike a year ago and was further diminished following recent reporting that Kamala Harris dismissed Teamsters president Sean O'Brien saying, "I'll win with or without you." The Democrats' procedural bungle also resulted in the National Labor Relations Board swinging Republican two years before it had to. Certainly things could get worse under Trump, but is there evidence for optimism in the labor space? Author of the new book We Are the Union: How Worker-to-Worker Organizing is Revitalizing Labor & Winning Big Eric Blanc joins Bad Faith to make the case.
