The case of Dr. Aafia Siddiqui
Hey Guys Im a big fan ive been following you guys since the Hill and as soon as you announced breaking points I subscribed so I really appreciate your honest coverage of world events as well as your very evident care for finding our common humanity in all aspects of life. I was hoping you could shine a light on the plight of a prisoner in Texas named Dr. Aafia Siddiqui I had no idea who she was until I saw an interview with her lawyer a humanitarian lawyer called Cliff Stafford Smith a few days ago and it was absolutely heart breaking what she went through. I hope you take a deep dive into her case and see if you can interview her lawyer and find out more about her situation and if you believe his defence as I did please interview him because shining a light on her case on your platform would help a lot in her release. Thanks guy lots of love to all of you Krsytal, Ryan ,Saager and Emily.
Taking shots vs. inviting guests on to discuss
Breaking points has taken shots at Coleman Hughes, Destiny, and others. I'm curious why there is comfortability taking shots at them vs. inviting them onto the podcast to discuss. Breaking points is ok platforming Norman Finkelstein, who's called Coleman Hughes "Black Shabbos Goy" and Medi Hasan a "Sewer Rat", but can't have Coleman or Destiny on to actually discuss these topics with them?
Squatters
Hello! Love the show and I know you guys do segments on housing every now and then. There seems to be a lot of news in squatters and I’m wondering if you guys are going to be covering this soon? From my media it seems like a national crisis but I am not entirely sure, maybe its just only happening in certain states. None the less, I would love a segment and maybe debate on the topic to learn more about squatters in the country and why and how the legal system works for or maybe against them. Could be a great way to shed more light and remind people on the housing crisis we are facing in this country.
Guest request — Jessica Valenti, Abortion Everyday SS, MSNBC contributor
Hi Krystal, Saagar, Ryan & Emily! Longtime fan of the show. Been watching you since early Rising days. Would you consider having Jessica Valenti on as a guest to talk more about Abortion? Trump is becoming more vocal about “being up to the states”, Jessica has had unparalleled independent Substack coverage and it would make for a good long-form conversation especially as were about 6 months out from the general election. Have a great day!
