Briahna recorded this episode with Matt Stoller last Friday as news was emerging about the failure of Silicon Valley Bank -- the 20th largest bank in the US. We discuss the roots of that crisis along with how antitrust factors into the disaster in East Palestine & prospective merger between JetBlue and Spirit Airlines. Finally, at the end of the episode, Briahna get's Stoller's take on Matt Taibbi's claim that the FTC's investigation into whether the Twitter Files disclosures compromised private user data is a witch hunt of sorts. We tackled a lot in this one. See you tonight on Callin to discuss.
