YouTube Description
as posted by the channelOn The Freedom Side LIVE, Thursday, 4/24 at 3pm ET/12pm PT, hosts Rania Khalek and Eugene Puryear are joined by special guests:
Jon Elmer, contributing editor at The Electronic Intifada, joins the show to discuss the escalating US bombing of Yemen. Washington is attacking Yemen to retaliate against Ansar Allah (the Houthi movement) after it reinstated its blockade on Israeli vessels in the Red Sea to stop the genocide. While the deadly attacks have killed hundreds of civilians, Elmer examines how the poorest country in the world continues to hold its own against the two most militarily powerful
David Dayen, executive editor of The American Prospect, joins the show to discuss Elon Musk’s DOGE after its first 100 days of slashing the federal government, including Social Security and the Department of Education, health department, EPA, and aviation regulation. Dayen explains how DOGE’s real mission is to rapidly privatize public services, gut the civil service, target programs disfavored by Musk and Trump, and concentrate power in the hands of the White House.
Kambale Musavuli of the Center for Research on the Congo-Kinshasa joins the show to discuss how President Félix Tshisekedi’s government is moving closer to a deal that would grant the US exclusive access to the Democratic Republic of Congo’s critical minerals in exchange for military support against the M23 rebels, backed by Rwanda and Uganda. Musavuli will explain how Tshisekedi, facing growing unpopularity and mounting pressure from the advancing M23, is pushing the deal without parliamentary approval– and how Western powers are complicit in the brutal proxy war driving him to the negotiating table.
Aminah Sheikh, Union Organizer and Campaigns Strategist, and Vice President of the Canadian Freelance Union, joins the show to break down Canada’s upcoming April 28 election, dominated by tariff wars, annexation threats, and Trump’s push for a massive hike in military spending. Sheikh will discuss the key candidates and what’s at stake as the country grapples with a severe cost-of-living crisis.
