The 19th News and the "Build Back Better" Agenda

Kamala Harris gave her first post-nomination interview to "The 19th," a newly formed non-profit news organization. During the interview, Harris discussed the "Build Back Better" plan and the Domestic Workers Bill of Rights, which primarily affects women of color. The hosts note that Harris failed to mention Biden's "Lift Every Voice" Black agenda, suggesting the "Lift Act" was a pre-negotiated deal made when she dropped out of the primary.

Funding of The 19th and the Murdoch Connection

An investigation into the funding of "The 19th" reveals millions of dollars from major foundations, including the Rockefeller, Ford, and Knight Foundations. A primary donor is "Quadrivium," run by James and Catherine Murdoch. James Murdoch recently left the Fox board due to disagreements over Trump. The hosts highlight the "media power" required for a small, new outlet to secure a premiere interview and have it carried by MSNBC.
