New bonus coming soon, but catch up on the related bonus eps with Aaron https://www.patreon.com/posts/19418558 and Glenn Greenwald https://www.patreon.com/posts/bonus-glenn-on-23827350. We chat with journalist and rational skeptic Aaron Maté about why he calls the Russiagate narrative a "privilege protection racket." Maté debunks the latest smoking gun which this time comes from Buzzfeed, talks about the sad state of journalism, who else is doing good work on the issue, Noam Chomksy, Sarah Palin, Bernie Sanders, the Clintons and what MSNBC and the Dems could be doing if they spent less talk talking about Russia.
