MAGA ACLU, India-Pakistan Brink of War, & AI Glasses That Know Who You Are

Season 1 Episode 27 Published 11 months, 1 week ago
Description

In this episode, a deep dive into the conservative version of the ACLU: America First Legal. This group, founded by Trump’s top advisor Stephen Miller, has been working in the shadows for years fighting against “anti white bigotry,” preventing immigrants from getting pathways to citizenship, and protecting “Biblical values” in workplaces. So why have you never heard of them…? 

Then Wren & Mabel catch you up on why India and Pakistan just engaged in their worst fighting in half a century. Hear from Peabody award-winning Editor-in-Chief of Foreign Policy magazine on India pulling out of a dual water sharing agreement, Pakistan’s potential involvement in terrorist activity and if Trump really facilitated a ceasefire.    

Finally, the Newsgirls talk to the founders of I-XRAY, the smart glasses that know your home address just by looking at you. Learn how two Harvard undergrads built the glasses in just four days, how to protect yourself, and why they turned down lucrative offers to sell the product.
