Last year Annelle Sheline resigned from Biden's State Department in protest of the administration's support for Israel's genocide in Gaza. She returns to Bad Faith podcast to provide new insight into how the State Department routinely deprioritized or flat out ignored reports about human rights abuses so that it would not have to contend with domestic laws prohibiting weapons sales to countries that failed to meet human rights standards. In her new piece for the Quincy Institute she breaks down the mythology around America's role as global peacekeeper, and exposes how weapons sales drive US foreign policy.

Civil rights lawyer and social justice advocate Alec Karatkatsanis returns to Bad Faith to talk about his new book Copaganda: How Police & The Media Manipulate Our News. Alec zeroes in on the liberal media and political sphere to explain the establishment left's role in pushing the mythologies that fund the police, defund social services, and make the world less safe. Alec responds to growing pro-police arguments on the left, in particular the claim that the left needs to take crime more seriously if we want to win. Is Ana Kasparian right? Or does funding the police have no relationship to public safety?

National Co-Director of feminist anti-war group Code Pink Danaka Katovitch joins Bad Faith to discuss Sen. Tom Cotton's attacks on their group and Sen. Jim Banks' allegation that Code Pink is in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act. Since October 7th, establishment politicians have been cracking down on protests. In the wake of April 5th's huge anti-Trump protests, we ask, what is the future of civil disobedience and direct action? Are they effective politcal tools, or just outlets for the managed release of public discontent? Does Code Pink have insights and/or strategies to maximize this moment?

In a conversation that's immediately so rich Briahna forgets to introduce him, preeminent Gaza scholar, author, and professor Norman Finkelstein addresses how the crusade against wokeness is being weaponized by some, like Columbia Professor John McWhorter, to justify pro-Zionist free speech crackdowns on campus, and whether left-critics of woke excesses have any responsibility to adjust their critiques as a response. He also debates the utility of the term "Zionism" versus "Jewish Supremacy," and offers Brie a hilarious bit of dating advice. It's a sprawling, intimate conversation you wont want to miss.
