It's an Emmajority Report Thursday on The Majority Report
On today's program:
It's election day in the United Kingdom, and the British media is using the stabbing of two Jewish men by a mentally ill man from Somalia — who also stabbed a Muslim man, though that detail rarely seems to get mentioned — as part of a coordinated smear campaign against Green Party leader Zack Polanski.
Zack Polanski joins disgraced Epstein associate Lord Mandelson's best friend, Trevor Phillips, on Sky News. Phillips tries to claim that Polanski — who is Jewish — is essentially an antisemite in a baby-brained segment. The fallout from the smear campaign against Polanski appears to be having a real impact on his polling, with his unfavourability ratings jumping eight points since the controversy began.
Mohammad Ali Shabani, Journalist and Editor of Amwaj.Media, a platform focusing on Iran, Iraq and the GCC countries, joins Emma for an update on the ongoing war in Iran.

Massively popular AM talk show host, Hugh Hewitt suggests that it is Israel's interest to act in their own interests to blow up the ceasefire deal with Iran.
Director of the National Economic Council Kevin Hassett says that the economy is hitting on all cylinders, citing that credit card spending is through the roof as proof.
