RSH 27 -- Biden, NYC Karenism, police murder George Floyd, & the Blue Check Mafia (5.29.2020)

Recorded May 27, 2020. Adam and Peter talk about multiple things: the Joe Biden "You ain't Black" if you don't vote for him comment, Amy Cooper (NYC Karen) calling the cops on an innocent Black man, the Minneapolis police murder of George Floyd (recorded before the uprising got intense), and labor trafficking allegations against New Yorker writer Jia Tolentino's family and what it reveals about the class interests of the Blue Check Media Mafia.
