The week in politics (Aug. 19, 2026)
Published 1 month, 1 week ago
Description
On Wednesday's show: We discuss the latest developments in politics in our weekly roundup.
Also this hour: When Texas became a state in 1845, it might have been given Congressional permission to divide itself into five states. We contemplate what such a move might have meant and would mean today for a metro area like Houston, which might've become a state unto itself.
And we visit a first-of-its-kind monument to Black pioneers in space called EarthRise.
