Join the conversation with TJ Smith. In this episode, we dive into the complex issues surrounding protests in Minnesota and Baltimore's historical take on law enforcement and civil rights. Through engaging dialogue, we explore the thin line between protest and crime, reflecting on significant past moments and their impacts on societal norms today. The conversation also touches on the strategies within the education sector, where Mississippi's remarkable improvement in reading scores offers insights into accountability and academic focus. Additionally, we discuss key topics affecting national and international landscapes, from controversies surrounding the potential militarization of Greenland to discussions on U.S. foreign policy and economics. Plus, navigate through Maryland's current crisis involving unemployment overpayments—a challenge exposing broader issues of governance, trust, and fiscal responsibility. Engage in the discourse on how protests, tariffs, and sanctions reflect on America's evolving identity and relations on the world stage.
