Harvey Weinstein has been found guilty in his sexual assault trial in New York on two charges, but acquitted on three others including some of the more serious charges of being a sexual predator. The next phase is sentencing which will happen on March 11 where he faces a possible sentence of 5-25 years. Shayna Jacobs, courts reporter at the Washington Post, joins us for the verdicts and also how it’s not over just yet, Weinstein still faces charges in LA.
Next, Congress is getting ready for its next fight, the clash over surveillance reforms. Lawmakers have a March 15 deadline to figure out how and whether to reauthorize provisions of the USA Freedom Act, including the controversial records program known as Section 215. Lawmakers may even want to work in changes to the FISA court. Jordain Carney, Senate reporter at The Hill, joins us for more.
Finally, Target’s delivery app, Shipt, is getting some pushback from its workers. Some are describing a culture of retaliation after speaking up on Facebook groups dedicated to being a helpful community for Shipt shoppers. Some have complained about the new algorithmic pay model the app uses now and are even being deactivated for speaking up. Lauren Gurley, staff writer at Vice’s Motherboard, joins us for more on what it’s like to work in the delivery app gig economy.
