About this episode

Paul Jay discusses a potential rupture in American politics with historian Gerald Horne.

Next week, Paul Jay talks with historian Gerald Horne about what may be a genuine rupture in U.S. political life. Unlike Iraq in 2003, the elite consensus has fractured. The right is divided, corporate America is nervous, mainstream media is using the words “war crimes,” and polls show most Americans want no part of this war. The Israeli genocide in Gaza already cracked a consensus that held for decades— has the Iran war shattered it? Can the progressive left seize the opening? Leave your questions below— Paul may raise them with Gerald on air. Subscribe and join us next week on theAnalysis.news.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
