His work has appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Village Voice, New York magazine, and the New York Daily News. He has long documented economic inequality and the massive cuts to the social safety net Donald Trump and Russell Vought envision for America. They discuss his latest for Capital and Main - "Trump’s Budget Director Pick, on Path to Confirmation, Could Hurt Millions of Working-Class Americans Including MAGA Voters". Then, John once again chats with Simon Moya-Smith and Julie Francella for their segment "We're Still Here". Simon is an Oglala Lakota and Chicano journalist. Julie is a mental health professional experienced in handling complex trauma with Indigenous youth and families. She is an enrolled member of the Ojibway of Batchewana First Nation Reserve. They talk about the racism surrounding the Kansas City Chiefs in the Superbowl and the Trump administration's desire to forcibly relocate Palestinians from Gaza which draws parallels to the forced relocations of indigenous people in America.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
