Show Notes

In this week’s episode, we talk about the FCC’s 2-1 vote to rollback Title II net neutrality protections, which would destroy the internet as we know it and allow Internet Service Providers like Comcast to choose winners and losers. It would be an unmitigated disaster, and we discuss ways to influence the FCC to reverse course before making their final vote in August. We also talk about the bombshell Comey memo, and how it could potentially lead to impeachment if it can be proven that President Trump did, in fact, attempt to obstruct justice. We’ll also talk about grassroots activism at town halls for Medicare for All, Bernie Sanders’ debate with John Kasich, and Jeff Sessions’ crackdown on crime. All of these topics and more will be discussed in this episode. Enjoy!
