Pod Save America - Did Republicans Just Lose the House?

In the middle of the night, the House narrowly passes Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," a witch's brew of tax cuts for the wealthiest and benefit cuts for the neediest, sending it on to the Senate. Jon and Dan talk about what Democrats can do to stop the bill—and the upside of Republicans passing something so massively unpopular, Trump's "white genocide" show-and-tell for South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, and the damning new data showing why Kamala Harris lost the 2024 presidential election. Then, Dan talks with Rep. LaMonica McIver about getting slapped with criminal charges by Trump's Justice Department, and what it means for the executive branch to be targeting legislators for doing their job.

Consider This from NPR - Two Israeli embassy staffers killed amid a rise in antisemitism

Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim worked for the Israeli embassy in Washington, D.C.

This weekend, they were slated to go to Jerusalem — Milgrim was to meet Lischinsky's family for the first time. According to Israeli ambassador Yechiel Leiter, Lischinsky had bought a ring and was planning to propose.

Instead, they were gunned down outside an event at the Capitol Jewish Museum on Wednesday night.

The killing comes aside a rise in antisemitic incidents. Daniel Shapiro, a former U.S. ambassador to Israel, reacts to the news.

Historian and founder of Palestine Nexus, an educational resource on Palestine, Zachary Foster joins Bad Faith to break down his viral article on the forgotten history of Jewish anti-zionism. By forensically examining the long history of Jewish opposition to Zionism, he disrupts mythology used to justify Israeli oppression of Palestinians in the present. Also, he weighs in on the recent shift in mainstream media coverage of Palestine, a new willingness to acknowledge the ongoing siege and starvation campaign, and what, if anything, it means for the fate of Palestinians.
