Submit ReviewWe discuss the Democratic leadership's police reform bill, their reaction to calls to defund the police, the Republican proposals, Joe Biden's police reform op-ed, and more.
The video of George Floyd’s killing by a police officer, as well as videos of police aggression in the resulting protests have put pressure on the political establishment to respond. The Democrats recently unveiled a police reform bill, Republicans are figuring out the reforms that they are going to propose, and Presidential candidate Joe Biden recently wrote an op-ed with his thoughts on the best way to improve policing in America. The President has been on the attack against his political rivals and bucking any suggestions for reform from former allies and opponents alike. Today on the show, we’re going to take a look at the effect the nationwide wave of protests has had on politics. Our guests are Vox congressional reporter ELLA NILSEN, and POLITICO reporter, EUGENE DANIELS. Then, Slate’s MARK JOSEPH STERN will join in the conversation as we take a look at the problems that occurred in Georgia’s election on Tuesday and what it portends for November’s general election.
