Joe Firestone In-Depth interview: Joaquin Vasquez runs for Congress in the CA-53rd CD

In my return to live streaming tonight at 8:30 PM ET after a few weeks absence, I'll interview Joaquin Vasquez, a progressive candidate for Congress in the 2020 Democratic primary. Joaquin is running in the CA-53rd CD, against the incumbent Susan Davis who is a 20 year Congressman serving on the Armed Services Committee and a strong supporter of fiscal responsibility, the "pay-go" system and, implicitly, austerity in Federal budgeting. Joaquin, in contrast, favors a platform similar to AOC's. My interview will focus on Joaquin's background, his platform, and how he will run against this incumbent with strong establishment support.

Election rigging across the country

Aaron Maté buries the Trump-Russia conspiracy theory

Mainstream Commentators on CNN have been pushing the narrative that Bernie's popularity and support has been "collapsing". His recent California trip says "that's not happening." Instead, his support seems to growing again, and his goal of fielding a campaign with 1,000,000 volunteers may well be conservative by a country mile.

Finally, Democrats are standing up to AIPAC for Ilhan Omar, free speech and American Democracy. It's time to break the influence of AIPAC on American foreign policy for good, because it is a force undermining, free speech, rational political debate, and the national interest of the United States. I'll be discussing these issues and related matters at 9 PM ET on the New Macro Media FB page.

Mat Waldie, Managing Director of New Macro Media will join me to discuss one reaction to Bernie Sanders's explosive launch to his campaign, namely the question: Is Bernie Sheep do***ng again? For that matter, was he sheep do***ng the first time around?

Jeff Epstein will interview me about my perspectives on how Green Party and MMT views differ and Why.

Jon Lancelot will be returning to "In-depth" for a conversation with Joe Firestone on Cybersecurity and Cyberwarfare to discuss the major issues arising from this subject. Jon who has just completed a degree with a specialization in this subject is a long-time friend of the show who will provide some unique views on the subject at 9 PM on the New Macro Media FB Page. Don't miss this one. It may have a few surprises for you.

Tonight at 9 PM on the New Macro Media Page, I'll continue my analysis of PayGo beginning with the second half of Matt Stoller's great post on it, covering "the ideological problem with fiscal responsibility, followed by interpretations of Dave Dayen's Newsletter Comments on PayGo and finally Ryan Grim's take on it in an Intercept article and an RHQ video. I hope you'll tune in for this one and stay for the comment segment of the stream.. There have been a number of PayGo live streams lately and they've been quite good. But the subject is very important because PayGo clearly asserts that "Taxes fund Federal spending"; and that is simply not true. It also leads to destructive austerity and failure to adapt to the need for the Green New Deal.

There is more to the episode of PayGo politics we've just seen than first meets the eye or the brain. An initial interpretation of the outcome is that Congressional Progressives 'caved' to Nancy Pelosi and accepted the faux fiscal responsibility chains of a PayGo rule that would shackle their progressive agendas before they were even explicitly introduced in the House. But there are other interpretations of what happened over the last few days. I'll examine various takes on what's happened through the lens of four different articles and a newsletter tonight at 9 PM ET on the New Macro Media FB page.
