After swiftly taking a political chainsaw to the policies of his predecessors the Biden-Harris administration, it would seem President Donald Trump couldn’t be further from the other side. Not to Jill Stein, who says Democrats and Republicans are two sides of the same oligarchy. A system that has broken US democracy and is sacrificing people and the environment for profits. America is leading a world order willing to go so far as to support genocide to continue American hegemony in the Middle East.
The three-time Green Party presidential nominee, who earned just 0.5% of the vote in 2024, tells Imran Garda that her campaign was never about winning but about breaking Wall Street’s grip on politics and building a path for future opposition.
On this episode of The InnerView, Stein opens up about how she believes Democrats tried to silence her during the 2024 race, critiques America’s role in the Gaza war, and argues why we should negotiate with Putin—but not Netanyahu.
