Former presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg… With 100,000 dead, what does the military veteran say we should have learned?

Also, investigative journalist Sarah Posner has an essential new book out. We’ll talk about the insights she offers in the pages of Unholy: Why White Evangelicals Worship at the Altar of Donald Trump.

And a new documentary from filmmaker Daniel Karslake. For They Know Not What They Do looks at the ongoing damage done to LGBTQ persons and families… In the name of religious dogma.

The weekend solidifies the fact that it is now too exhausting to be an American. We have a leader cowering in a bunker, military surrounding the White House, riots, looting, cops killing innocent people, shooting at them, beating at them..still..and where are we … left hiding in our masks again.

Leslie is joined by United Steelworkers President Tom Conway to discuss manufacturing, infrastructure, and American security during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Much of the information they covered can be found in this week's USW blog, titled "America's Infrastructure Crisis." (link here: https://usw.org/blog/2020/americas-infrastructure-crisis)

The website for the USW is www.USW.org and their Twitter and Instagram handle is @steelworkers.

Mark follows up on last week's episode, which explored the question of how we are to pay respect to the more than 100,000 innocent Americans killed -- and 330,000 worldwide dead -- in just the last two months due to a largely preventable cause (COVID-19).

Today's show made the argument that it's not a question of religious vs. secular; it's a question of compassion vs. selfishness.
