Political Theater

from The Young Turks · host TYT Network

President Biden announced another $800 million in aid to bolster Ukraine’s military efforts in the Donbas region. Ron DeSantis’ plan to punish Disney for supporting LGBTQ rights by repealing their special district governing authority would raise taxes on Florida families in the Orlando area by $2,200 each. Lindsey Graham on the midterms: “If this is a policy debate, we’ll kick their ass. If it’s a personality debate, we might lose.” As the Biden administration prepares to lift Title 42 on May 23, more Democrats in Congress, and running for office, say they have concerns about the decision and are asking the administration to reconsider or have a more concrete plan in place for the influx of migrants expected to arrive at the southern border. Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s short-lived policy of requiring state troopers to conduct secondary inspections of trucks crossing into Texas from Mexico reportedly cost the United States almost $9 billion in just 10 days.
