We Were Warned – A Conversation with Representative Ted Lieu
After we sent our highlights last week, we were joined by Congressman Ted Lieu, Representative for California’s 33rd congressional district since 2015. He covers just how long he thought it took the new White House Press Secretary to break her promise never to lie to the press or the public (minutes), what he thought of the president’s assertion that our mortality number were “very strong” (not much), and what he thought would be necessary to fully recover from this unprecedented crisis and its economic aftershocks. Listen to the episode.

What Hath Jared Wrought. . .And What’s He Doing with the PPE Our Health Workers Need?
In this episode, we were joined by Congressman Ted Deutch, Representative for Florida’s 22nd District. Rosa Brooks, Kori Schake and host David Rothkopf took turns asking the Congressman questions. Deutch has been actively leading efforts for more oversight into Jared Kushner and the Administration’s management of the program to collect and distribute vital hospital supplies. He has also provided guidance to the White House efforts to reopen the economy and has worked hard to ensure vital foreign affairs concerns do not fall by the wayside during the crisis. Listen to the episode.

Hiding in Plain Sight: A Conversation with Sarah Kendzior
Sarah Kendzior’s latest book “Hiding in Plain Sight” describes precisely why Donald Trump’s failures as a leader, his support for our enemies and his profound corruption should not be a surprise to anyone. To Kendzior’s many followers, it supports work she has been doing for years calling out the Trump backstory that the president, his supporters and his Russian sponsors have been trying to suppress for just as long. This candid conversation provides vital insights into how we have gotten to where we are and why ominous developments may await in the months and years ahead. Listen to the episode.

Do We Need a Marshall Plan for the United States of America?
With more than 33 million people claiming unemployment insurance in the past six weeks, 75,000 reported dead of COVID, 1.3 million reported infected with the disease and an unprecedented social crisis that now has 1 in 5 mothers of young children fearing they will be unable to provide their children with the food they need, the U.S. faces its worst domestic crisis since the Civil War. The government we have is actively seeking to deny the truth, undermine our institutions and cash in on the disaster. We discuss how we can respond with an exceptional panel including Congressman Jamie Raskin (D-Maryland), former Obama WH official and practicing physician Dr. Kavita Patel, Ed Luce of the Financial Times and Ryan Goodman, editor of “Just Security” and professor at NYU Law School. It is a shocking moment and a vital conversation. Listen to the episode.
