Has Ana Kasparian Abandoned the Left? | A Deep Dive - Comrade Cast: Episode 35
17Welcome to another intriguing episode where I, Comrade, examine recent controversies around Ana Kasparian, one of the leading voices of The Young Turks, and the speculation about her alleged departure from left-wing politics. Join us as we unpack the evidence and arguments from a left wing perspective.
One of the issues with this controversy is that the left I think has been poorly articulating its position. I hope to bring some clarity to this evolving situation.
