Get Liger on The Kim Iversen Show

Edward “Liger” Smith is not just a Midwestern Marx director, he is a signatory of the American Communist Party’s founding declaration, putting him at the center of a movement now making headlines as ACP leaders weigh in on the Trump administration’s January 2026 confrontation with Venezuela. In the last week, ACP’s international secretary publicly warned of violent blowback and kidnappings if Washington forces privatization there, a stark signal of how volatile this moment is and exactly the kind of hard reality check Kim’s audience needs right now.

This conversation also lands as mass protests roil Iran and U.S. policy in the region intensifies, contexts Liger studies through an openly anti‑imperialist lens. He can connect today’s flashpoints to last year’s controversial appearance of ACP figures at Hassan Nasrallah’s funeral, and to the surge of youth Marxism that establishment media keeps misunderstanding.

We found no record of Liger previously appearing on The Kim Iversen Show, though Kim has hosted allied Midwestern Marx leadership discussing the ACP’s rise, which makes this the timely follow up viewers have been waiting for. Support this nomination today to put a consequential voice on the mic when it matters most.
