Max Blumenthal: The Israeli plot against Thomas Massie exposes US oligarchy

About this episode

Max Blumenthal discusses the implications of the campaign against Rep Thomas Massie and its connection to the Israeli lobby's influence in US politics.

Max explains how the campaign to defeat Rep Thomas Massie reveals how Israel’s lobby network is shamelessly buying U.S. politics, laundering influence through Trump-world, and pushing war and censorship. But the public is finally breaking through the propaganda, and a backlash is building. This is a public episode.
