‘ON THE GROUND’ SHOW FOR OCTOBER 24, 2025: Jon Jeter on the War on Truth… Chicago Mayor Calls for a National Strike… Plus Headlines and Bernie at No Kings  


From Gaza to Venezuela, to attacks on immigrants here at home, elites use Corporate media to keep Americans blind to the facts, to make us “good Germans.” We speak to journalist Jon Jeter for this month’s episode of ‘On the Media.’ And though millions in the U.S. attended the October 18 “No Kings” protests against the Trump agenda, Mayor Brandon Johnson of Chicago, made the most concrete demand, for a general strike.
