Turning the White House into a Cryptic Crypto Casino

Turning the White House into a Cryptic Crypto Casino

John discusses the news that happened over the holiday weekend. Trump's unhinged, ego laden Memorial Day speech at Arlington National Cemetery - Trump suddenly whining about Vladmir Putin following a mass Russian air attack on Kyiv - the Trump Administration directing federal agencies to withdraw ALL remaining funding for programs based at Harvard, totaling more than $100 Million AND the White House halting student visa interviews, demanding an expansion of social media reviews for each potential applicant. Then, he speaks with Professor Corey Brettschneider about a federal judge blocking Trump's retaliatory sanctions against law firm WilmerHale; the Supreme Court's troubling debate about ending nationwide injunctions amid arguments on birthright citizenship, and a court temporarily halting the Trump administration’s ban on foreign students at Harvard. Next, John interviews Michigan State Representative Joe Tate. His policy priorities focus on putting people first by making life more affordable, investing in a world-class education system, delivering on better public safety, addressing the housing crisis, and improving the criminal justice system. Joe Tate is running to be the next Democratic Senator from the State of Michigan, following Sen. Gary Peters announced he would not seek reelection. And finally, John welcomes back comedian Keith Price to chat with listeners about current trends and the latest Trump news.
