Summary

Alise and Bryan are back to talk about all the crazy sh*t happening in the news, starting with the Pope telling Catholics to give up trolling for Lent. For the Main News, it’s all about the coronavirus. Why is Trump openly contradicting the CDC and claiming everything is fine? They also look into VP Mike Pence’s past to show why he's uniquely unqualified to lead the coronavirus task force and follow up with a fitting #WoebackThursday. For the Election Section, they cover Tuesday’s debate and predictions for the South Carolina primary on Saturday. One More Thing is all about naming and shaming the four congressmen who voted against making lynching a federal hate crime. Then, Bryan is joined by Rep. Ro Khanna of California, who this week introduced a bill in the House of Representatives to add an additional “(X), Unspecified” sex marker category for U.S. passports. They discuss how the bill impacts nonbinary and gender nonconforming Americans and their ability to travel. Khanna, who also co-chair’s Bernie Sanders’s presidential campaign, shares why he believes a Sanders nomination will help, not hurt, Democrats’ chances in November. Learn more about your ad choices.
