3388 - Assessing Kamala Harris' Presidential Economic Agenda w/ Elizabeth Pancotti

The Majority Report with Sam Seder

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Elizabeth Pancotti, director of special initiatives at Roosevelt Forward and contributor the Fireside Stacks newsletter on SubStack, to discuss the Kamala Harris's potential economic policy as a presidential candidate. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Secret Service post-assassination attempt, Harris’ nomination, Netanyahu’s upcoming congressional address, Israel’s offensive on Gaza, Palestinian unity, US policy towards Sudan, labor action, environmental news, and video footage of another brutal police murder, before unpacking the GOP’s attempt to spin Harris’ nomination as a “DEI Hire” and her as a welfare queen. Elizabeth Pancotti then joins, diving right into her take on Biden’s successful domestic record as president, and what Kamala Harris can do to present a vision that picks up on that momentum. Expanding on this, Pancotti walks Sam and Emma through some of the major pieces of Harris’ agenda, presenting progressive policies and ideas for making the wealthy (and corporations) pay their fair share, an earned income tax credit that expands on the now-expired Child Tax Credit, major pro-family policy, housing infrastructure, labor relations, and anti-trust. They also expand on her record in politics, what to make of her potential administration choices, and wrap up with her stance on Medicare for All and the public option.

And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma show off the winners of our “Vergogna” contest, listen to JD Vance perfectly exemplify what he’s lacking as a VP (charisma, relatability, sense of humor, etc), and unpack some of Kamala Harris’ VP choices, highlighting Rep. Beshear’s comments on Vance in particular. Elon Musk walks Jordan Peterson through exactly how horrible of a father he is, and the MR Crew watches Crowder, Tim Pool, and Ben Shapiro struggle to come to terms with a Kamala Harris candidacy, plus, your calls and IMs!
