“I want you all to know that among progressives, it has become clear that you cannot claim to hold progressive values yet back Israel’s apartheid government.” Those words, spoken by Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., at a Palestine Advocacy Day event, created a firestorm within the Democratic Party last month. When journalist Katie Halper decided to discuss the comments in one of her regular editorials for Hill TV’s “Rising,” she had no idea that she was about to ignite a firestorm of her own. Ryan Grim and Jacobin writer Branko Marcetic join Halper to discuss.

| 0:00.0 | I'm Ryan Grimm and welcome back to another episode of Deconstructed. |
| 0:07.8 | So as I think I've mentioned on this show before, about a year and a half ago, I started |
| 0:11.1 | doing some guest hosting over at HillTV's show called Rising, which has one right-wing |
| 0:15.4 | co-host and one left-wing co-host, and they don't so much as argue and yell at each other |
| 0:19.7 | like CNN's Crossfire used to do. |
| 0:21.9 | But instead, they sort of present the news of the day and each kind of give their sides |

| 0:36.0 | And I hope I've been able to persuade some people in the audience my way. |
| 0:39.0 | Now in May of 2021, I started co-hosting every day, and this May, I moved to hosting only |
| 0:44.5 | on Fridays along with my conservative co-host Emily Chishinsky and editor over at the |

| 0:54.9 | Like at Rising, one of the left-wing co-hosts they've been bringing on is Katie Halper, |
| 0:59.2 | an independent journalist and podcaster. |
| 1:01.5 | But last week, she planned to make her daily monologue a response to these remarks by |
| 1:06.2 | Representative Rashida Taleeb, which had caused a stir inside the Democratic Party. |
