Summary

With Sarah in New Orleans and Beth in D.C., the sound in this episode isn't ideal, but we hope the substance is worth it. First, we talk about Beth's experience at Vox Conversations before moving into a lightening round conversation about the news of the week: Michael Flynn's acceptance of payments from foreign governments The White House's release of a tax reform memo Efforts to resuscitate health care reform in the House President Obama's lucrative speaking gig A federal judge enjoining President Trump's executive order on sanctuary cities Our Friday feedback comes directly from our listeners who attended dinner in DC. Thanks for bearing with us through the audio! We'll be back on Tuesday with better sound and a robust discussion of the issues. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
