The Biden Cover-Up and Elon's Exit from DOGE

from Informed Takes Podcast · host Devin Smith and Kevin Briggins

This week we talk about the media's portrayal of Biden, the shocking revelations from Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson's new book, Original Sin, and the wild—or maybe not so wild—idea of repealing the Civil Rights Act. They also tackle healthcare industry woes, government spending, and Elon Musk's short stint in politics. Plus, don't miss their take on Canada's media censorship and other hot-button issues.
