42:29Now PlayingHuman Rights and Environmental lawyer Steven Donziger reacts to the Supreme Court's terrible decision against him and the people of Ecuador who were poisoned by Chevron. But first, Susan Kang speaks out against the medicare "reform" for public sector workers retirees being pushed by NYC Mayor Adams as a "cost savings" measure.
The prosecution of Steven Donziger, which has been condemned by the United Nations, Greenpeace, Amnesty International, Amazon Watch, and 64 Nobel Laureates, is a literal corporate prosecution. After the Southern District of New York refused to prosecute Donziger, the judge assigned a corporate firm which had represented Chevron to go after him. The judge also made the unusual move of handpicking the judge to oversee the case and chose a judge who is part of the Right Wing Federalist Society which gets funding from.... you guessed it... Chevron!
Susan Kang is an associate professor of political science at John Jay College, a member of the executive council of the Professional Staff Congress, CUNY (faculty and professional staff union at CUNY), and member of the NYC Democratic Socialists of America.
NYC Retirees is a group that is raising funds and hiring lawyers to fight the imposition of this impending change to their healthcare which is a forprofit scam. To learn more, donate to help their efforts and more, please visit
