Episode 20 - Islamic Terrorism Still Matters

from The Rational Policy Podcast · host Mike Coté

On Episode 20 of the Rational Policy Podcast, hosts Mike Coté and Art Vandelay hit three topics, two foreign and one domestic. We lead off with the abhorrent antisemitic massacre during a Hanukkah celebration on Bondi Beach in Australia, carried out by an ISIS-inspired father and son duo. Next, we shift regions, if not topics, to touch on the killing of three Americans in Syria during an anti-ISIS operation. Finally, we ask and answer a question that will only grow in importance over the coming months and years: Is Donald Trump a lame duck? This is a public episode.
