Amanda and Alise are back to talk about all the crazy shit happening in the news, starting with the pope slapping a woman on the hand. Next, they talk about some encouraging new state laws that came into effect in 2020. For the main news, they give us an update on impeachment proceedings (or the lack thereof) and discuss Rudy Giuliani’s picture of what a trial might look like. They also talk about a shooting in Texas last week and a machete attack in New York. In today’s election section they discuss Julián Castro ending his candidacy and Bernie’s surging donations. For one more thing, they talk about protests at the US embassy in Iraq after an airstrike that left dozens of people dead.
