"Most Americans Are Getting Poorer": Robert Reich on Inequality & the Failures of Corporate Democrats
Earlier this month, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent publicly attacked the former labor secretary under President Clinton, Robert Reich. Reich wrote in a post online that "Trump Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said this week the K-shaped economy — the widening economic gap between the rich and the poor — is 'dead.' Hogwash. Not only is the K-shaped economy very much alive, even CEOs are admitting it's a problem." The treasury secretary went on to suggest the University of California, Berkeley should fire Reich.

"There's something in this administration," says Reich. "It's almost a kind of testosterone poisoning in which everybody has to be really nasty, put down everybody else."

Reich goes on to discuss economic inequality, pointing out that while inflation is on the rise, "most Americans are finding that their wages are stagnant … which means that most Americans are getting poorer."

Exclusive: Palestine Action Lawyer Rajiv Menon Breaks Silence on Facing Contempt Charges in U.K.
A prominent human rights lawyer in the United Kingdom has been charged with criminal contempt for his closing speech in the trial of his client, Charlotte "Lottie" Head, one of four Palestine Action activists who were sentenced as terrorists over their involvement in a 2024 protest and raid on an Israeli weapons factory. Their sentencing marked the first time a British judge issued terrorism sentencing enhancements on people who were not actually convicted of terrorism. An additional 21 currently jailed Palestine Action protesters could face similar sentences, which carry multiyear prison terms.

The charges against Rajiv Menon are similarly unprecedented in British legal history. He is accused of encouraging a jury to acquit Head according to their conscience. Menon denies this accusation and says he was simply informing the jury of a prior legal case that is memorialized in the courthouse at which the trial took place. He adds that, along with the U.K. government's ban on Palestine Action under anti-terrorism laws, the case against him is intended to have a "chilling effect" against pro-Palestine protest, and carries "serious constitutional implications."

"Deep Unlearning": Timnit Gebru on AI Hype, Ethics & Algorithmic Racial Bias
We speak with Timnit Gebru, a leader in the field of AI ethics, about how artificial intelligence is entrenching societal biases and inequality. Gebru is the founder and executive director of the Distributed Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, a group of academics, activists and engineers who produce research rooted in the belief that technology should benefit everyone. She also co-founded Black in AI, a nonprofit that works to increase the inclusion and visibility of Black people in the field of AI. Gebru previously served as co-lead of the ethical AI research team at Google but was fired in 2020 for writing a paper that warned about the financial and environmental costs of large language models, as well as their propensity to promote racism. The internet, which is what AI uses to train itself, "represents hegemonic views," says Gebru. "We even know articles like Wikipedia are heavily biased. It's overwhelmingly Western and male."
