On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Abby Martin, creator and host of ‘The Empire Files’ and co-director of ‘Earth’s Greatest Enemy’. She discusses the catastrophic results of the US midterms for the Republicans and the risk of someone worse than Trump rising in the future, how the COP Climate Summit is a farce dominated by fossil fuel and business lobbyists and the serial omission of military emissions, the catastrophic impacts of global military emissions on the climate and why it remains absent in global climate discourse, the genocide turned ecocide in the Middle East, how neoliberalism incubated the next iteration of fascism and the irreconcilable contradiction of a global US military empire and a sustainable planet, how the US political system co-opts and neuters insurgent political movements to fit the mold of American imperialism, her disgust at the Democratic Party’s subsidizing of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, how the US military acts as a for-profit corporation and discards its veterans to appalling conditions, the suffocation of Cuba by the United States, and much more.
