I’ve been a bona fide Sarah Burris fanboy since the days when we both wrote for Salon.com, and my only regret is not having her on sooner than today. She’s an amazing journalist and I think after today you’ll be a fan too, if you’re not already. We talked about Todd Blanche’s confirmation hearings, we talked about Mitch McConnell, we talked about Reflecting Pool, and so much more. Follow her on Bluesky and Instagram.
