Homelessness, Hopelessness and @BetterSOMA
San Francisco has an undeniable problem with homelessness and drug use. That isn't controversial. However, a Twitter account dedicated to showing the problem in explicit fashion has found itself at the center of our national culture war. Conservatives love it because it shows a liberal city unable to run itself, liberals hate it because it gives ammo to conservatives. At the center of it all is a man who desperately wants to help his neighborhood. But should he curb his pleas for help because they excite conservatives? Are both sides missing the point entirely?Justin sits down with Adam Mesinck, otherwise known as @BetterSOMA, a man at the center of the micro and macro of American politics.

Why Is Trump Chasing DeSantis?
On this episode of Politics Politics Politics, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is positioning himself as a potential 2024 presidential candidate. On a recent multi-city tour, he touted his tough-on-crime stance and criticized liberal cities and prosecutors as being "woke" and out of touch. Speaking to police unions, DeSantis appealed to a constituency that strongly supported former President Trump. If DeSantis formally launches a campaign, he'll have to contend with Trump's large base of supporters. But the man himself is content to post on a website nobody reads and a post issues videos on a website no one watches.

Episode 369: Why Don't We Know More About The East Palestine Derailment & The Downed Balloons?
Is the Biden administration so obsessed with political message discipline that it's getting in the way of doing their job?Last week, a train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio released potentially deadly chemicals into the air, resulting in a mass evacuation and a controlled burn of the toxins. The Biden administration has been sparse in their response, leading to suspicion and rumors of a media blackout. On Sunday, a U.S. fighter jet shot down an unidentified object over Lake Huron on orders from President Joe Biden, the fourth such downing in eight days. This is part of a heightened alert following a Chinese spy balloon that emerged over U.S. airspace in late January.
