COUNTERPOINT RADIO, hosted by Scott Harris, is heard every Monday night on WPKN 89.5 FM, Bridgeport, CT between 8:00 – 9:30 pm ET. Webstreaming and audio archive at http://wpkn.org

1) Brandon Carr, Studies Associate at the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, and Kevan Harris, Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of California, LA, discuss their views on the 5-week US, Israeli bombing campaign against Iran that many call a strategic disaster, the future of negotiations to end the war, Israel's continued destabilizing attack on Lebanon, and the dangerous erosion of international law.

2) Julie Hollar, Senior Analyst with the group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR), discusses her recent commentary, "Who Will SAVE America From Misleading Coverage of Voter Suppression?" and the importance of calling out the disinformation in Trump and GOP talking points re: their false claim that millions of non-citizens are voting and discrediting U.S. election outcomes.

3) Michael Albert, co-founder of South End Press, Z Magazine, the Z Media Institute, and host of the podcast Revolution Z. Author of 21 books on economics, politics and socialism, Michael will assess Trump's murderous war on Iran, fascist repression at home, and a growing pro-democracy resistance movement -- while envisioning a transformative "long march" progressive agenda that discards major elements of the decaying status quo system.

4) Steve Posner, an adjunct assistant professor of writing at the University of Southern California, talks about his recent San Francisco Chronicle, commentary, "How Trump Can Keep the House Without Winning the Midterms," describing a possible anti-democratic scheme where "Trump’s election deniers in GOP-led states slow walk recounts and stall certification of Democratic wins, creating a situation where Republicans retain their House of Representatives majority."
