Take Me to Church (Committee) w/ Christian Parenti - FULL VIDEO

Briahna spoke to Professor of Economics at John Jay College, CUNY, Christian Parenti, about why the left should support the Republican-driven efforts to interrogate bias within the FBI & restrain its powers, the Sy Hersh article alleging US involvement the Nord Stream sabotage, the contraversy around the Rage Against the War Machine anti-war rally, and more. A great interview with an intellectual who isn't afraid to dive deep into sensitive subjects that, nonetheless, are crucial for the left to work out.

Parenti: “To generate problems to which the bureau is the solution…” Briahna: “Mmm”. 🤣😂🤣😂 Parenti:”…it is good for these agencies” Not an implausible explanation

“The FBI is a self produced desk within the justice department” -Parenti 💯💯💯

On the topic of the security state framing people it sees as a threat, I’ve been thinking about the case of a baseball pitcher named Trevor bauer. Ever since he was a little kid, he was a threat to authority. The league bosses hated him. When he wrote “BD 9/11” on a mound, he was on a trajectory to be the best pitcher of all time, the greatest sports influencer on YouTube, and (says Trevor) a billionaire. But then the rape allegation. The accuser recanted under oath. I got the feeling she was pressured to make the accusation. The people who lie about rape most are rapists. I tend to believe women. But here I’m believing her that it did not happen. Anyway, I wish a lefty would cover the story, if for no other reason than to potentially radicalize a really smart person who’s experienced first-hand that the state can crush ANY individual.

“Another problem is the culture of social media, people do not think deeply about stuff, there is no room for ambivalence, there is very little room for curiosity…people rely on guilt by association” -Parenti 💯💯💯 May I add that the culture of social media has people reacting to headlines and opinions with pure emotion and without all the facts

“…the Left is basically on a witch-hunt, all the time” -Parenti 💯💯💯 Sure seems like that

“…my impulse is not to derail the thing I disagree with…and for your critique to be framed in a way to make the thing better….” -Briahna 💯🖤💯🖤💯🖤

yess! as long as you’re talking to john jay scholars, saul kassin’s work is phenomenal and deserves more attention

This was a great discussion. The FBI infiltrated and sabotaged a mutual aid organization in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Friends and I were involved in the org, Common Ground. It wasn't even political. It just wasn't capitalist, and it was helping keeping marginalized people in neighborhoods intended for gentrification. This American Life did an entire episode about it. https://www.thisamericanlife.org/381/turncoat

In recent years, I've heard this same person, Brandon Darby, discussed among sex-worker activists on twitter as a saboteur for the FBI.

Was there no call-in Monday? Is Brie on vaca from call-in and I didn't get the memo?

I wish Brie could talk to a few of people who worked in a movement to oust Mimi Walters in CA45. It was women from all over the left from ex-conservatives to socialist libertarians from all classes in working together and it was beautiful. It’s about the goal and staying on just the one goal. They brought the world Katie Porter. That’s how the left can unite. (Jackson Hinckle tried to crash it btw) We know that’s the same way Christian Smalls worked. Falling for the provocative weirdos saying I have to stand next to someone who’d deny someone’s humanity is the line. Rage Against The War Machine is a rally that used to be organized by Cindy Sheehan this last one was a mockery of the anti war movement. Ritter wasn’t the whole issue. The two main organizers picked Ritter to start a fight because that was the whole point, to divide the left. And no one showed up to their game.

I think brie wants the material to be heard by the left and she thinks that her valid questioning of bias speaks to the greater take away and offers that legitimacy. But if you believe what Matt has reported on you
