335. Bonnie Carroll. A Special Memorial Day Conversation with ‘Saint Bonnie’. It’s Memorial Day Every Day in Ukraine. Ben (Not Jerry) Manhandled in DC. Noem’s Immigration Hunger Games. Hegseth’s Afghanistan Witch Hunt. VA Sec Collins Continues to Spin.
It’s Fleet Week in New York City. The Knicks are in the Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in decades, the Yankees are in first in their division. It’s a good time to be in New York. But this week as we head into Memorial Day weekend, there are a lot of reasons for you to stay vigilant.
From Trump’s ridiculous and shameful performance with the visiting South African president, to SECDEF Pete Hegseth’s latest announcement of a sham inquiry into the Afghan debacle, to Deceptive Doug Collins spinning his way through the VA , it’s a time we could all use a helper.
And this episode’s guest is a true helper. Bonnie Carroll (@Bonnie_at_TAPS) has helped to guide countless people through their worst days. Along with the amazing volunteers that she works with at TAPS, Bonnie helps the survivors learn to carry the burden of their grief.
It’s a conversation that will move you. Will inspire you. And it might just surprise you.
