Is Washington D.C. Reaching A Breaking Point?!

About this episode

The episode discusses the escalating chaos in Washington D.C. and recent significant events affecting politics and civil rights.

Another week, another surge of chaos, and the pressure in Washington, D.C. is clearly building. From the shocking shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner to the eyebrow-raising indictment of James Comey, it’s been nonstop headlines and even more questions. Then came a major Supreme Court decision out of Louisiana, gutting the Voting Rights Act and setting off alarms about how far protections against discrimination are eroding. And through it all? The distractions, the spin, and yes, continued focus on priorities that feel wildly out of step with the moment. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
