DESCRIPTION:Join CODEPINK Congress as we educate, activate and mobilize for peace 
 legislation!\n\nThese are urgent times. \n\nPeople are disappeared and 
 beaten for expressing solidarity with Palestine. \n\nTrump and Congress 
 approve another tranche of 2,000 pound bombs for Israel’s genocide in 
 Gaza, where Israel continues to block food, water and medicine. Trump’s 
 latest executive orders unleash local police to assist in mass raids of 
 immigrant communities, and encourage the Attorney General to pursue 
 sanctuary cities with “legal remedies” against state and local 
 officials for “obstruction” of law enforcement officers “carrying out 
 their duties.” \n\nThe Washington Post reports the FBI is ramping up 
 investigations into leaks to the news media, “in some cases using 
 polygraph tests that current and former officials say are creating a 
 climate of fear and intimidation.”\n\nThroughout its history, the Federal 
 Bureau of Investigation has tracked and monitored domestic political 
 movements-and its war on dissent is far from over. In his upcoming book, 
 The Imperial Bureau, author Chip Gibbons explains how the FBI became an 
 intelligence agency and launched the modern national security 
 state.\n\nFeatured Guest:\n\nChip Gibbons is Policy Director of Defending 
 Rights & Dissent, a national civil liberties organization that defends the 
 people’s right to know and freedom to act through grassroots 
 mobilization, public education, policy expertise, and advocacy journalism. 
 At Defending Rights & Dissent, Chip educates members of Congress about the 
 Constitution and edits the Gaza First Amendment Alert. A journalist and 
 researcher focusing on the US national security state, Chip is currently 
 working on The Imperial Bureau, forthcoming from Verso Books. His most 
 recent piece is Mahmoud Khalil’s Battle Is Not Over for Jacobin.\n
