In this week’s mega episode of The Banter Podcast: We're going to screw up the coronavirus reopenings, aren't we? Meanwhile, Team Trump not so subtly planned a rally in Tulsa on Juneteenth (now moved to Florida after the outrage), and wants MAGAhats to sign a waiver in case they get COVID-19. Ben and Mike agree that Confederate monuments should be taken down, but what about Winston Churchill in the U.K.? Also, Republicans seem to think people learn history by looking at racist statues instead of reading books. Plus, "Defund the police" isn't very well thought out, either as a slogan or policy idea. Listen above and comment below!
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Since June 9th, we have raised hundreds of dollars for Black Lives Matter. The Banter will be donating 100% of all membership sales until June 16th to the organization on the frontline of the battle against racism. We will cover all transactional costs too, so all your money will go directly to BLM. We’re also giving readers 50% off the normal price of a membership, so please sign up today, get a membership to the best newsletter around while helping an enormously important cause.
