Summary

We complain about religion and government mixing in Texas, Colorado, New York, Florida and Oklahoma.

After hearing lyricist Sheldon Harnick (who died last week) sing his cautionary song "Merry Little Minuet," we speak with The Progressive journalist Jeff Abbott about how right-wing evangelicalism and narco-trafficking are affecting policy and politics in Latin America.
