Someday, we may be able to post an episode without talking about the madness of the Trump Administration. But today is not that day. Because the second week was even worse than the first.
In this episode, we talk about the blitzkrieg of executive orders coming from the White House, from their attempts to stop spending money that Congress already appropriated to their assault on government employees and their psychotic obsession with “DEI.”
We talk about the real-world impacts of Trump’s drunken road-rage of a presidency so far, including his attacks on accessibility, gutting federal agencies, turning over confidential private information to Elon Musk and his gang of hackers, and an old favorite … tariffs that are almost certainly going to raise prices and crash the economy.
On the topic of accessibility and inclusion, we spoke about Jennifer’s former employer designing a locker room for everyone.
And then there’s that “blatantly unconstitutional” executive order on birthright citizenship …
Finally, we end the show with some thoughts about DEI and how it functions in the real world. Hint: it’s about economic justice as much as anything else.
In addition to the audio podcast you can find here, you can watch a video version of this episode (and future episodes!) on our YouTube channel and on Instagram (@jenn_and_dave).
