Vaya Con Muñoz 4.17.21

In Vaya Con Muñoz

This week Natalia is joined by regular guests Kate Albright-Hanna, Dan Torres, Matt Szafranski, and Nathaniel Waring. We discuss Joe Biden’s announcement that the US will be pulling all of its troops out of afghanistan by Sept 11th of this year, and what that means for the two counties; how we all feel about the Biden administration so far, and what direction we would like to see it take going forward; what will happen with the midterm elections coming up in 2022, and whether the lack of frantic urgency on the side of the left will result in losses for Democrats; what impact the census will have on redistricting and, by extension, the house make up; what the lack of Trump in our daily lives means for our anxiety levels, and whether the right being in a similar state of panic indicates there’s a fundamental problem with American politics; if the left should take the high road when the right breaks the rules, or they should stoop to their level in order to keep things “fair”; and what the fate of the supreme court and the filibuster look like under biden, and a democratic majority in the house and senate.
