Shownotes Transcript

Sami and Alise break down the news of the week, starting with the launch of Betches and New Balance's #RUNTOTHEPOLLS Election Day bus, and Barack Obama's recent appearance in Wisconsin. Then they talk about the horrific news out of Pittsburgh, where 11 people were killed in an anti-Semitic attack on the Tree Of Life synagogue. They then talk about Gab, a "free speech" social media site where the shooter posted anti-Semitic views, and Twitter's failure to notice similar behavior and threats from the MAGA Bomber. Then they end the episode by talking about Brazil's new president, who has been called by some the "Trump Of The Tropics."   Thanks to our sponsor Living Proof!
