Where have all the heroes gone?

Description
Friends,
Welcome back to my Saturday coffee klatch with Heather Lofthouse (executive director of Inequality Media Civic Action, and my former student), when we review the highs and lows (and sometimes very lows) of the week.
Today we focus on:
— Ron DeSantis will be announcing his run for the Republican nomination next week. Does he have a prayer?
— Trump’s Georgia indictment will likely be announced in August. Will it make any difference?
— Joe Manchin is causing trouble again. Will he make a third-party run?
— Kevin McCarthy’s showdown with Biden on the debt ceiling is imminent. Will the United States default and, if so, when?
Grab a cup, pull up a chair, and (if you’re so inclined) take our poll.
