Top stories behind the headlines: The Daily best episodes- 9 current affairs podcasts for your 2024 playlist
I love (or depend on) this podcast. Today, however, the folks talked about how little resistance to the stupid coup–the illegal, unconstitutional takeover by ’emergency’ declaration by the head of this ‘administration. But it was a little too inside the Beltway, or maybe too much inside the actual halls of government–the courts, the Congress. There was *no* mention of the demonstrations, the thousands of people in the streets–even right there in DC–the creative ways folks are warning others of ICE and responding to ICE (and the National Guard) when they show up. Nothing about the veterans challenging National Guard members, reminding then of their oath to the *constitution*. Nothing about the thousands turning out in Chicago and Boston in advance of the coming invasion. I’m not faulting them for what they *did* talk about but pointing out that there is more to the story than what happens inside the Beltway and that resistance deserves to be highlighted, supported, broadcast.
