Description

Ravi, Cory, and Rikki begin with an alarming spike in crime in New York, including the fatal shooting of two NYPD officers this weekend. We go through new Mayor Eric Adams’ plans to address gun violence and the nationwide rise in crime. Then we discuss the looming possibility of a Russian invasion of Ukraine, where the U.S. figures in and how Biden might respond going forward. Then we take a look at two major cases on college admissions before the Supreme Court and they could spell the end of affirmative action. Then we review the fault lines in the liberal debate around Covid restrictions, including Bari Weiss saying “I’m done” with the pandemic. Finally, we touch on the biggest issue facing America: the prospect of a less sexy green M&M.
