Summary

Weeks after Norfolk Southern’s toxic train crash in East Palestine, another Norfolk Southern train derailed in Ohio this past weekend. While this train was not carrying hazardous chemicals this time, the incident is only adding to the pressure on Washington to create more rail regulations. But what should those regulations look like? National Transportation Security Board Chair Jennifer Homendy joins the Rundown to discuss the recent train derailments in Ohio, what can be done to prevent the next disaster, and whether we should still be transporting dangerous material on trains. 35 people were arrested in Atlanta on Sunday after they lobbed rocks, fireworks, and Molotov cocktails at police stationed there in protest of the planned construction of the Atlanta Public Safety Training Center. This violent demonstration is just the latest in a string of incidents in Atlanta aimed at rebuking this building project, which critics call ‘Cop City’ and argue will destroy the environment and further the militarization of city law enforcement. Atlanta city officials have pushed back on these critiques, saying this training facility will help all first responders and the violence being demonstrated is anti-police anarchy. Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr joins the podcast to discuss how Atlanta must confront the domestic terrorism attacks happening in Atlanta in response to the city’s planned Atlanta Public Safety Training Center. Plus, commentary from Republican presidential candidate and author of “Woke Inc.,” Vivek Ramaswamy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
