DACA, Dems $3.5 Trillion Budget, Inflation, Schumer’s Pot Bill, Prosecuting Military Crimes

Published 4 years, 8 months ago
Description

Mike and Jay open the show with a discussion of a federal judge ordering a halt to DACA - which they both agree was the right call, although they’d likely support a similar policy were it passed by Congress. Then it’s a discussion of Senate Democrats $3.5 trillion budget framework (pre-framework?), whether Fed Chair Jerome Powell is being too cavalier about inflation (Jay thinks so, Mike disagrees), Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s marijuana decriminalization proposal, and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand’s push to change the way serious crimes in the military are prosecuted.

Jay’s (Re)Recommendation

The Pioneers. David McCullough

Mike’s Recommendation

Cancer Ward. Alexander Solzhenitsyn
