Description
When the bias trainings, body cams, and oversight doesn’t work, it’s time to defund the police. Maybe even time think about why we ever needed police in the first place? Gasp! Professor Alex Vitale breaks down why the connection between austerity politics of cities and the policing of the poor, and why the left should focus on Democratic governors and mayors as well as Republican lawmakers. Speaking of which, Governor Andrew Cuomo is exactly the New York machista he appears to be on television, CPAC is still a political freak circus, and Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn’t understand gender but is obsessed with your genitalia. Comedian and actor Baron Vaughn joins Francesca for some slapdash Cuomo brothers impersonations and belly laughs.
