A pair of tragic mass shootings struck California over the last few days. Brad Polumbo & Hannah Cox discuss the heart-wrenching incidents and react to the grotesque politicization and race-baiting coming from some concerns of the Left in their aftermath. Then, they analyze Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s latest move against teachers unions. Plus, they explain the ongoing debt-ceiling spending bonanza and react to some… erm, interesting, takes from “conservative” Republicans like Donald Trump and JD Vance on spending cuts to Medicare and Social Security. Finally, they go through a genuinely unhinged slavery reparations plan that was just proposed in San Fransisco and read listener comments. Like the podcast?
