If Roe v. Wade is in fact overturned, what will women do to maintain sovereignty over their own bodies? What will a post-Roe world mean for women's reproductive health?
Can re-framing reproductive rights influence how people understand the issues related to abortion? Would the phrase "reproductive justice" offer a more accurate view than previous frames such as "reproductive rights" or "rights to privacy?"

Please donate to KPFK! New encouraging data suggests inflation has eased, but Fox News reported it as bad news. Corporate media reported imported primary results in NE and WV almost exclusively through the lens of what it means for Donald Trump rather than voters. Economic inequality researcher OMAR OCAMPO explains new report showing that while working Americans were struggling during the pandemic to stay employed, housed and fed, the net worth of the nation's 727 billionaires grew by $1.7 trillion. Ocampo explains explains how it happened, and what actions can and must be taken to reverse this obscene trend. Senate Democrats unable to overcome GOP filibuster and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) to pass abortion rights law. Appeals court strikes down CA age restrictions on semi-automatic firearm sales.

New polls confirm that a large majority of Americans do NOT want Roe v. Wade overturned in the wake of a draft SCOTUS rightwing majority opinion doing so, and that voters prefer pro-choice candidates on a generic ballot. Former Trump Defense Sec. Esper says Trump is 'a threat to democracy.' Constitutional law expert John Bonifaz explains the latest twists and turns in voter efforts challenging the eligibility of elected Republicans who 'engaged in insurrection' in violation of the Constitution's 'Insurrectionist Disqualification Clause' (14th Amendment, Section 3).

Today we debunk the new pretend documentary from convicted rightwing election fraudster and rightwing activist Dinesh D'Souza, "2000 Mules," which, among a host of fabricated claims for which it presents no evidence, also absurdly asserts that publicly-available cell phone geo-location data somehow proves people used secure ballot drop boxes to 'steal' the 2020 election from Trump. White Republican in AZ receives slap on the wrist for intentionally committing voter fraud, highlighting deep racial disparities in sentencing of black and brown voters who mistakenly, unknowingly tried to vote while ineligible.

Labor rights; Rights and freedoms under attack
|
The Obamas released an eloquent statement addressing the leaked draft Supreme Court opinion that overturns Roe v. Wade, ending a woman's constitutional right to make her own reproductive choices. They warn that all privacy rights are now at risk of being dismantled by Republicans, and urge all Americans to take action to preserve our rights and freedoms. Jordan Zakarin explains the latest (mostly encouraging) developments in labor rights, as a surge of workers across the country organize for better wages and working conditions, overcoming million-dollar union-busting campaigns from behemoth corporations like Amazon, Starbucks and Delta. Also today: Big Oil pulls in record quarterly profits while raising prices on consumers.

OH, IN primary results; 14th Amendment; Environment

Notable results from the 2022 primaries in Ohio and Indiana on Tuesday, which included a fresh round of computerized voting system failures. Federal court forced Ohio to vote using maps heavily gerrymandered by Republicans that violate the state's constitution. All of Trump's endorsed candidates won their GOP primaries, including former Never-Trumper turned Trump acolyte, JD Vance. A truly bizarre exchange in a voter challenge to insurrectionist Rep. Madison Cawthorn's (R-NC) eligibility to run for reelection. Former Trump official claims Trump asked why the US military couldn't shoot Black Lives Matter protesters in the street.

GOP Supreme Court to overturn reproductive rights
|
Polls have shown for decades that the vast majority of Americans broadly support access to abortion. But a bombshell leak of a draft majority opinion shows that the GOP's packed-and-stolen Supreme Court plans to overturn the landmark ruling Roe v. Wade, and sets a road map to repeal other rulings similarly based on 'unenumerated rights,' like contraception, marriage equality, and inter-racial marriage. Lawyer/journalist JESSICA MASON PIEKLO explains the draft ruling, how we got here, what it all means, and actions voters can take to restore and rebuild hard-won constitutional and civil rights now being dismantled by Republicans and their stolen rightwing court majority.

2022 election; Russia-Ukraine War
|
2022 midterm election primary season begins in earnest this week in Ohio and Indiana. Polls show broad, bipartisan majorities of Americans support Pres. Biden's actions in Ukraine -- including sanctions and military, humanitarian and economic aid -- yet don't support Biden's overall Ukraine policy. There is a tsunami of fact, opinion, misinformation and disinformation about Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine, coming from all sides. We open up the phones for a lively exchange of ideas, in hopes of straightening out at least some of what happens to be Kremlin propaganda and what is not.

Putin's war in Ukraine rages on, increasing fears it could embroil the world in a nuclear World War III. EU moves to ban on Russian oil. Anti-war advocates call on US/NATO to force Ukraine to reach a deal with Russia to stop the killing. International relations expert Prof. Nicholas Grossman explains why he believes that is a false choice, why arming Ukraine is likely the best path to peace, and offers nuanced insights into various scenarios that could end the war. Also today: several states sue USPS to stop its plan to buy 150,000 new gas-guzzling delivery trucks. NY judge again rejects Trump's attempts to avoid accountability in NY Attorney General's probe into allegations of bank, tax, and insurance fraud.

Ultra-conservative Republican federal judge reveals the real objective behind Republicans' "obsession" with the 2020 election, "which even they know was not stolen," spelling out the Republican plan to "execute successfully in 2024 the very same plan they failed in executing in 2020" using a radical legal theory that has gained traction among the rightwing US Supreme Court majority. Russia appears to be planning to expand its war on Ukraine into Transnistria, Moldova, with Russian media beginning to frame it as a 'holy war.' Pres. Biden explained why he believes ongoing US assistance to Ukraine is crucial. Plus Desi Doyen has our latest 'Green News Report.'

Redistricting expert David Daley explains recent court rulings on last-minute efforts, primarily in Republican-controlled states, to game the 2022 midterm elections with outrageously partisan gerrymandering of U.S. House maps. Daley discusses how the rightwing US Supreme Court has put its 'foot on the scale' to cheat Black voters in AL and WI, potential 'constitutional hardball' tactics, and how supporters of fair elections can fight back to save democracy.

A more transmissible COVID sub-variant (BA.2.12.1) is rising quickly around the US; protect yourself and resist pressure to remove your mask indoors if you don't want to. VP Kamala Harris tested positive for COVID. America's political divisions are reflected in COVID mortality rates, which are 2-3 times higher in GOP-controlled red states like FL and GA than in blue states. Twitter announced it would ban ads promoting climate change denial - will billionaire 'free speech absolutist' Elon Musk keep the ban after buying Twitter?

Democracy-lovers are breathing a sigh of relief for democracy after French Pres. Macron defeated far-right extremist Marine Le Pen. New York judge holds Donald Trump and his company in contempt of court. Constitutional law expert JOHN BONIFAZ of Free Speech For People explains the latest developments in a voters' challenge seeking to disqualify far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor-Greene (R-GA) under the 14th Amendment, Sec. 3, which bars from federal office anyone who engaged or aided in insurrection, etc., similar challenges in NC and AZ, and how the amendment could apply to candidates like Donald Trump.

n this hour, former president trump's administration took the presidential documents to Mar-a-lago instead of submitting them to the U.S. archive. Why does this matter? Jeremi Suri of the University of Texas Austin explains. Then, we turn our attention to a country rarely in the news, Uzbekistan. What do we know about the country, particularly its religious freedoms? We speak with USC professor Steve Swerdlow, author of a new report on the subject from the US Commission on International Religious Freedom.

French Election; 21st C Economic Bill of Rights
|
Sebastian Budgen joins us from Paris, where voting is underway in the second round of the Presidential election. The contest has been narrowed from 12 parties in the first round, held April 10th, to the top two vote-getters, the centrist neoliberal Emanuel Macron, and the far rightist Marine LePen. LePen edged out the leftist Luc Mélenchon by a very narrow margin. The big question for today is where Mélenchon’s votes will go in this second, decisive round: will the left abstain, turn in blank ballots, or vote for LePen? Or will they hold their noses and vote for the neoliberal Macron? We get Sebastian Budgen’s analysis.
Alan Minsky and Harvey Kaye join us to discuss the 21st Century Economic Bill of Rights, which they see as both a campaign platform and governing program to rescue and renew American Democracy. This is more than a to-do or must-do list for progressives, but in their words, a truly compelling and transformative democratic and unifying project. We ask them to explain what the economic bill of rights contains, and how they see it as the platform to advance democracy. We also ask whether they think this program is feasible and realizable as a campaign strategy given the configuration of our political winner take all system?

Slate legal reporter Mark Joseph Stern discusses recent disturbing Republican statements indicating that, in addition to overturning abortion rights under Roe v.

Water Wars
|
Meleiza Figueroa hosts an important roundtable conversation on the politics of water in California, featuring voices from the far North State region that are rarely heard south of the state’s capital. 75% of California’s water falls north of Sacramento, yet 70% of that water is consumed south of the Sacramento Delta. 2022 is shaping up to be one of the worst drought years on record, and the water wars are as intense as they’ve ever been. Ali Meders-Knight, Mechoopda Tribal member and Indigenous Traditional Ecological Knowledge Practitioner, and Jim Brobeck of Butte County’s AquaAlliance – share their perspectives from the frontlines of the fight against privatization of the Tuscan Aquifer, the largest – and last – intact aquifer in California. Meleiza, Ali and Jim discuss the impacts of climate change in California, the current state of water politics, and the threats posed by corporate agribusiness and wealthy landowners to water as a human right. From the creeks of the Sierra to the taps of Los Angeles, everyone living in California has a vital stake in the water wars, and the protection of the state’s remaining natural resources held in the public trust.

Economy; GOP Voter Fraud; Environment

U.S. unemployment has fallen to its lowest level since 1968, but corporate media isn't informing the public or is downplaying positive economic news like rising wages as 'high labor costs' harming businesses. New poll shows vast majority of Americans support Biden's climate policies and proposals that Republicans and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) killed last year. The GOP 'voter fraud' industrial complex is having a banner year amid revelations of more and more Republicans getting caught for committing voter fraud, even as they scam money from MAGA rubes by falsely claiming that Democrats are committing voter fraud.

|
New revelations show that Donald Trump, Jr., sent messages to Trump's White House Chief of Staff with steps to steal the 2020 election before the election was called. Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, took similar actions, then her husband was the lone dissenting vote on a lawsuit that potentially shielded his wife from scrutiny by the House January 6 Committee. John Nichols of The Nation explains why an impeachment inquiry must be launched to hold Justice Thomas accountable for numerous blatant conflicts of interest, regardless of the political outcome. Plus: State Dept. reports 4-year gap in records tracking gifts by foreign leaders to Trump.
