Summary
Abbott and DeSantis should be looking at jail time or serious civil fines for engaging in this heartless, racist sport. Is using the plight of migrants as political pawns an unlawful and immoral act by DeSantis and Abbott? Do they not see them as human beings? Gov. Abbott sends buses of migrants to Kamala Harris’s residence and Fox News is there to cover it live. Also award winning correspondent from The New Yorker, Luke Mogelson reports on right-wing extremism: The Storm Is Here!

| 0:04.1 | aren't free right now. I mean, think about all the things you're paying for daily, monthly yearly. |
| 0:08.8 | Well, here's something that won't add to that list, the free iHeartRadio app, podcasts, |
| 0:13.8 | streaming music, digital radio. All free, it's the future of audio and unlike almost everything |
