Summary

Yes, our Constitution is not exactly working as planned. Yes, checks and balances are not checking or balancing. Yes, the president and his family are behaving like royals on the world stage. Yes, this July 4th might be seen to celebrate not the revolution to break away from one mad king but the ascension of another. But surely there are things to celebrate about America today, right? Ed Luce of the Financial Times, Rosa Brooks of Georgetown Law Center and Evelyn Farkas of the German Marshall Fund discuss...and give you plenty to celebrate this holiday weekend. Tune in. And be patient. The good stuff starts right after we list all the things we have to worry about. Whoopee! Happy Fourth everybody! Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/deepstateradio.
