The Pentagon has deployed a THAAD anti-missile defense system to Israel, escalating tensions with Iran. Despite diplomatic efforts to avoid conflict, the move comes after Iranian ballistic missile attacks on Israel and warnings from Iran against US military presence in Israel.

Today on AirTalk, we will talk about the U.S. troops and THAAD anti-missile defense system that have touched down in Israel . Also on the show, we will talk about Californians who are switching political parties, the rise of all things mushrooms and a housing nonprofit’s undercover investigation which revealed alleged section 8 discrimination.

The Public Policy Institute of California has a new analysis out looking at Californians who are switching political parties and the evidence indicates that the Golden State is trending red. It’s subtle but still a shift for a state that historically has seen independent party voters shift Democratic. The switches are especially prominent for Black and Latino voters, who are switching at higher rates than other racial groups.

Housing nonprofit alleges discrimination following investigation into Section 8 housing voucher acceptance Housing Rights Initiative, a housing rights non-profit organization, recently filed 112 complaints to California, alleging more than 200 property owners discriminated against those using Section 8 housing vouchers. The complaints follow an investigation conducted by HRI, which found property owners across the state were rejecting those with Section 8 housing vouchers at high rates, with the highest being in Los Angeles at 70%.
