US-Far Right Separatism Collab Threatens Canada | Denmark’s Debt Weapon | Industrial Manufacturing Fetish | Russia's Drone War of Attrition | Ep. 283
In our latest episode of the pod, Matt Duss and Julia Gledhill join me to make sense of the latest darkness befalling the world:
The US State Department has been coordinating far right separatists in Alberta—the imperialism threat to Canada is real.
Denmark’s debt weapon and the EU’s anti-coercion instrument got Trump to temporarily back off of invading Greenland.
Why is the fantasy of returning industrial manufacturing to the US so important to the American far right (and some progressives)?
The confession of a Biden administration adviser to supporting war crimes in Gaza.
And just how bloody is drone warfare? New data from the Russia-Ukraine war reveals casualties on the order of World War I, with very little to show for it in terms of territorial conquest.
