In this episode of The Humanist Report, we shine a light on the morally bankrupt, thuggish Republicans that bully others both domestically and internationally. We’ll kick off the episode with a rundown of Trump’s new National Security Advisor, John Bolton, who basically wants to invade very country, ever. We’ll then turn to the aftermath of the #MarchForOurLives protests wherein Republican politicians and pundits ruthlessly attacked the childern and teenagers that marched for gun reform. Additionally, we’ll talk about the CLOUD Act, Bernie Sanders’ resolution to stop Saudi’s atrocities in Yemen, Stephon Clark, net neutrality, health insurance companies that are buying off corporate Democrats, and changes to YouTube’s algorithm that’s hurting independent creators. It’s not too fun of an episode, but we’ve got you covered on some of the most important stories that broke this week. Enjoy the show!
