In Vaya Con Muñoz

This week our panelists – Nathaniel Waring, Tanisha Arena, Dan Torres, and Matt Szafranski – talk about the ongoing legal battle between Mayor Sarno and the Springfield City council around the council’s decision to switch from a police commissioner to a 5 person civilian police commission; the Massachusetts Republican party’s attempts to censure governor baker over his support of the second impeachment of former president Trump, and how it’s a symptom of a greater movement within the republican party towards extremism; how the political spectrum is more complicated than simply left and right, and how the real nature of our political and economic systems relate to the words we use for them, and how important words can be to a common understanding; and discuss what’s happening with reddit and the stock market, and how everyday investors banded together to take down a hedge fund, and shine a light on the problems that have always existed within our stock market.
