Summary

In this episode of El Niño Speaks, José Niño joined by former U.S. Representative Cynthia McKinney for a deep dive into the capture of the American political system. McKinney breaks down the harsh realities of the Washington “inside game,” why both major political parties are two wings of the same bird, and the absolute power of the Israel First lobbies that dictate our domestic and military policy.
