S3 | SS18: Headlines Potpourri!

We’re trying something new! Or at least a new version of something old! This is Headlines Potpourri, in which we discuss timely headline news and try to add important context or helpful talking points. This week’s headlines:

  • “McCarthy Loses 10th Speaker Vote” (15 by the time of recording…)

  • “George Santos arrived in D.C. this week. No one is more riled than N.Y.'s other gay congressman.”

  • “Biden toughens border, offers legal path for 30,000 a month”

  • “Layoffs are sweeping Corporate America to kick off 2023”

  • “Weekly jobless claims fall to lowest level since September”

  • “Bolsonaro supporters storm Brazil’s presidential palace, Congress and Supreme Court”

Good News: “FDA approves drug for Alzheimer’s treatment”

And, the patron-only bonus headline… “This Futuristic Toilet Sensor Wants to Track Your Health With Pee”
