The Abandon Biden movement was created to leverage votes to secure a ceasefire or, alternatively, punish Biden for failing to move on that issue.

Head of communications Ahmad Hudhayfah joins Bad Faith to discuss the movement's attitude to Kamala Harris, its current demands, and what he makes of so many "coconut-pilled" leftists who had formally articulated a commitment to Palestinian rights.
