Who Owns America’s Debt? – Bob Pollin Pt. 2/2
In part 2, Bob Pollin, economist and Co-Director of the Political Economy Research Institute (PERI), lays out policies to increase workers’ wages and bargaining power and bring down the price of food items such as eggs. He tackles the issue of U.S. government debt, as well as fiscal conservative and MAGA Republican claims that China owns most of this debt. These falsehoods deflect from Trump’s massive tax cuts for the rich and his high military expenditure, which ran up U.S. debt far more than under the Biden administration. Pollin asserts the best way to reduce high-interest payments on U.S. debt and support social services is to increase government revenue via capital gains and income taxes.
A Massive People’s Movement Can Prevent Trump Stealing the Election
Prof. Allan Jay Lichtman has correctly predicted the outcome of every election since 1984. His model says Biden will win the vote in 2020, but he thinks Trump is planning to work with Republican governors and secretaries of state to rig the final result. Only a people’s movement on a massive scale can prevent a Trump coup says Paul Jay. Prof. Lichtman is the guest on theAnalysis.news podcast.

Part Four – Cracks in the Trump Coalition: Civil War Among the Elites
Trump’s coalition is unraveling. What was once sold as a unified right-wing project is now fracturing into open conflict between legacy arms manufacturers, Silicon Valley militarists, Wall Street financiers, and ideological operatives like Bannon and Leonard Leo. As Trump’s chaotic tariffs wreck global supply chains, even key backers like Charles Koch and Peter Thiel are hedging their bets. Meanwhile, Corporate Democrats offer no real alternative—caught between donor loyalty and popular discontent. But beneath the elite infighting, there is a growing hunger for a real alternative—one rooted in democracy, solidarity, and working-class power. This episode exposes the fault lines of U.S. power—and why their shared refusal to confront climate catastrophe or nuclear danger puts us all at risk.
Brilliant and Much Needed Political Satire – “An Honest Government Ad”
Juice Media from Australia produces sharp and witty satire. They describe the video this way “The Government has made an ad about the global response to the pandemic, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.” It’s also surprisingly funny and bang on politically.

Trump vs Biden on Foreign Policy – Abby Martin
Especially on China and Latin America, Biden and Trump overlap quite a bit. However, the major difference lies in Iran policy: Trump supports economic war against Iran; Biden supports the nuclear deal. Trump has been more, not less, aggressive than Obama-Biden. Abby Martin joins Paul Jay on theAnalysis.news podcast.
Feigning Mad Ave. hucksterism satirically to illustrate political perfidy. Rings with the lies and misrepresentation of the right wing. Thanks.
I would share this effective satire on Facebook if the obscenities and profanities were not present. Do you really feel that they are necessary? I think they mar the presentation.
They have a G rated version as well….
Ahhh, but it’s disappointing that Juice’s biting sarcasm is only directed at the Trump administration here. Members of Congress of both parties are complicit! None of them give a damn (and that applies to sheepdog Bernie, too!) about the American people today. They want us dead if we aren’t generating sufficient profits for them. When are We the People going to wake up and understand this? We truly do deserve the government we get.
Brilliant……….show more of these!
A pretty woman saying shxt I do not find clever.
A shame you didn’t understand the rest.
I don’t understand what ‘rest’ wasn’t understood by ‘whom’? Please explain 🤔
Bold and brilliant!
