AIPAC Throwdown

On this week's show: Daniel Biss joins to discuss the changing way Democrats are relating to Israel. Daniel is the mayor of Evanston, Ill., and very likely soon to be a member of Congress representing Chicago’s north side and northern suburbs. He just won the Democratic nomination in a hugely expensive primary election — over $10 million was spent, much of it by AIPAC-linked groups dissatisfied with his positioning as a “progressive Zionist.”

Plus: Medicare for All, a check in on the Iran war, and Gavin Newsom’s emergent strategy when fighting Republicans on the internet (calling them gay). Jamie Kirchick sits in for Ben who’s off this week.
