Podcast Episode #18 August 6, 2022

In this week’s 30-minute episode, after clarifying what the “Dog Days of Summer” phrase actually means, Keith and Pam discuss several stories that happened this past week:

* The continued rise of authoritarianism and fascism in the United States.

* A string of legislative and policy wins for Joe Biden and the Democrats

* Why elections matter, specifically moves made by U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland in the Breonna Taylor case when Trump A.G. Bill Barr and the Kentucky state A.G. refused to do so.

* How the process of freeing Brittney Griner and Paul Whelan from Russian prison is progressing.
