RSH 81 -- You Got Money for Fake Air Strike Justifications But You Ain't Got My Money? (3.1.2021)

Tuesday Mar 02, 2021

Recorded February 28, 2020. February is over and Adam and Peter are back. They talk about Biden's airstrike in Syria. Then they talk about two additional police killings (of Kurt Reinhold and Angelo Quinto), including one in Antioch, California and how the city council recently passed police reforms. Then they wrap up by discussing the next COVID relief bill in Congress and wondering when the hell our next stimulus checks are coming.
