In this episode of CODEPINK Radio, host Marcy Winograd interviews author Norman Solmon on his latest article, “Decoding Israel Buzz Words in a Time of Genocide.” CODEPINK Palestine campaigner Jenin talks about a campaign to demand the Center for Reproductive Rights address Israel’s sexualized violence–rape and enslavement–to oppress Palestinian women.

Host Marcy Winograd interviews sociology professor William Robinson on his latest book, “Pax Silica, The New Ruling Class.” Robinson traces the rise of a “new transnational capital complex” that brings big tech together with global finance and the military-industrial-surveillance complex to colonize the world–unless we continue to protest–disrupt–divest-and withhold our labor.

On this episode of CODEPINK Radio, host Marcy Winograd first takes us to DC, where CODEPINK confronts Trump’s toadies–Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War, and Scott Bessent, Secretary of the Treasury–over illegal wars, economic sanctions and US and Israel genocide. On the second half, Marcy interviews author David Vine on the Pentagon’s plan to open a new, additional, US military base inside Israel.

This week on CODEPINK Radio, Marcy Winograd and CODEPINK co-founder Medea Benjamin take on the politics of Hollywood, from the backlash against Macklemore and pressure on artists speaking out for Palestine to Susan Sarandon and Mark Ruffalo standing their ground. They also unpack new pressure on Israel over illegal settlements, the expanding U.S.-Israel war on Iran, and the growing resistance to endless war. Then, they turn to artificial intelligence, as warnings from inside the industry fuel calls to rein in increasingly powerful AI and confront its already deadly role in modern warfare.

On this episode of CODEPINK Radio, host Marcy Winograd interviews economist and author Jeffrey Sachs on why US illegal sanctions on five sectors of Iran’s economy will fail to collapse the Iranian government.

Webinar hosts Jodie Evans and Megan Russell challenge US imperialism in East Asia, where over 300 US military bases surround China.

Empire on the Rocks co-hosts Marcy Winograd and Medea Benjamin discuss whether Brazil's upcoming election can revive Latin America's pink tide and whether exposure of the Israel lobby and its ecosystem can weaken Zionist influence on U.S. foreign policy.

On this episode, host Marcy Winograd speaks with Teri Mattson of CODEPINK’s Latin America team on resistance to the US masquerade as protector of Latin America, where the Department of War has launched the “Shield of the Americas” military alliance under the guise of fighting drug cartels. Next, Marcy speaks with Liz Jackson, Legal Director of K-12 Legal Defense, on the organization’s challenge to the Zionist masquerade as protector of Jewish safety in its war on schools and colleges that dare to protest US-Israel genocide in Gaza.

As US support for Israel plummets, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu–wanted by the International Criminal Court– attempts to train AI models to deny Israel has committed genocide in Gaza and crimes against humanity across West Asia.

On the first half of Empire on the Rocks, Medea and Marcy discuss growing opposition to the war on Iran and U.S-Israel military integration. On the second half of our program, our podcasters take a deep dive into Secretary of State Marco Rubio's "Cuba, the Capital of 21st Century Communism." The conspiracy-heavy document attacks both the island nation--long suffering under brutal U.S. sanctions-- and its progressive supporters in the United States. Is Rubio's Red Scare rant a pretext for military intervention in Cuba or a blueprint for persecution of the Left in the U.S? Or is it both? Listen to learn more.
