Weekends: Climate Class War, Personal Responsibility, and Cuomo's Scandals w/ Ross Barkan

Every Saturday at 1 PM ET, Ana Kasparian and Nando Vila broadcast live from the Jacobin YouTube channel. Weekends features free-flowing and humorous commentary on current events and political strategy. This is the podcast version of the show from March 6, 2021.

Journalist Ross Barkan joins us to discuss the ongoing multiple scandals surrounding New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. We also hear from IUPAT's General Vice President Jim Williams who's been spearheading the campaign to pass the PRO Act, how the right-wing mobilizes the politics of personal responsibility, and how climate change gets made out to be a culture war issue.
