Latino USA Folgen

After the longest State of the Union address in U.S. history this past Tuesday, we go beyond the lies and omissions to assess where our country stands.

We analyze plans to build an economy around mass immigration detention, the precarious state of finances in so many U.S. households, and the duty citizens have to “fight fascism.”  Maria Hinojosa speaks with journalists Jasmine Garsd and Kimberly Adams, and author Jason Stanley.

Washington Post reporters got access to thousands of chats and internal communications from the employees running PR for the Department of Homeland Security.  They run a taxpayer-funded media machine whose main goal is to go viral, whether people love or hate the content.
