Midterms Final Week: Fake Polls, AIPAC’s Secret Spending & Early Vote Surge w/ Usamah Andrabi & Tom Bonier (Ep 352)

Lula crushed Bolsonaro’s son in Brazil by doing everything Democratic consultants say never works, Barack Obama compares Trump’s White House redecoration to “Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory,” and Trump’s DOJ is openly trying to cover for Orange Man’s disgusting sex pest behavior. Francesca is on the final-week-before-the-midterms beat with Justice Democrats communications director Usamah Andrabi, who explains how AIPAC is hiding its money in pop-up super PACs to save Doris Matsui from Mai Vang, why Haley Stevens still won’t campaign for Abdul El-Sayed, and why feckless Democratic leaders want to “go small” if they take power. Then, TargetSmart’s Tom Bonier joins to break down the fake pollsters flooding the zone with bunk data, and what the 33 million—and counting!—early votes already tell us. We get into Justin Pearson’s fierce campaign, Texas Latino turnout surpassing 2024 presidential levels, and the young Black voters across the Deep South marching miles to the polls after the Voting Rights Act gutting.
