YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On The Freedom Side LIVE, Thursday, 10/02 at 3pm ET/12pm PT, Eugene Puryear is joined by special guests:

Eugene Puryear will discuss the shutdown of the federal government, over GOP attempts to eliminate Medicaid and Affordable Care Act subsidies. Over 14 million Americans stand to lose healthcare, Trump is poised to layoff hundreds more federal workers as part of the shutdown amid a plummeting job market, and the inaction from Democrats, the so-called opposition party, has paved the way for Trump’s billionaire agenda to plow through public goods.

Wahid Ben Ali of the International Peoples Assembly joins us to discuss the Gen Z-led “GenZ 212” uprising in Morocco. Thousands are flooding the streets to demand free healthcare, education, jobs, and an end to corruption. Ben Ali will explain how mass anger over privatization fueled the rare popular protests, which have been met with brutal crackdowns, inciting student and union strikes that have shaken the North African nation.

Yara Shoufani of the Palestinian Youth Movement joins the show to discuss the Trump-Netanyahu Gaza “peace plan.” The plan, which envisions British war criminal Tony Blair taking over the Gaza Strip, was devised without any Palestinian leaders at the table. Shoufani will explain the U.S.-Israeli scheme, the growing rift between world leaders backing Israel’s occupation and the growing number of countries backing Palestinian statehood, nearly two years into the genocide.

Lawrence Grandpre of Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle joins the show to discuss Trump’s imminent National Guard takeover of Memphis, Tennessee. Following federal troops in D.C. and LA, Trump plans to expand into Baltimore and Chicago. Grandpre will argue the Trump-led military takeovers of a growing number of U.S. cities would not be possible without the facilitation of Democratic politicians at every level.

Kambale Musavuli of the Center for Research on the Congo-Kinshasa joins the show to discuss how the Rwanda-backed M23 continues mass killings, rape, and torture in the DR Congo despite the June 27 Washington-brokered “peace” agreement. Musavuli will explain how the violence continues to rage while Washington exploits the deal to seize Congo’s vast mineral wealth.
