Episode 165 | September 18, 2024: Pager Rager, Dogging Cats, Half the Point
Manage episode 440638465 series 2966672
Political cartoonists and analysts Ted Rall (on the Left) and Scott Stantis (on the Right) take on the week in politics.
First up, Israel's Mossad launches a fearsome attack against Hezbollah by blowing up their pagers and walkie-talkies throughout Lebanon, injuring thousands of people and killing at least a dozen. Does this impressive act of international terrorism cross a red line for supporters of Israel against Gaza? What happens next in the Middle East?
Springfield, Ohio has made headlines, most of them probably false, about the allegation that Haitian migrants have been chowing down on the locals' cats and dogs. Ted relates what he heard from relatives who live in Springfield and Scott and Ted dissect Trump's ability to touch upon big truths even while lying like the day is long.
Finally, the Federal Reserve Bank has decided to cut short-term interest rates by 0.5%. How much will juicing the economy help Kamala Harris' campaign?
