Biden student debt relief is triggering all of the worst people
Manage episode 339040714 series 2530863
This week we are joined by Jesse O’Connell, senior vice president of education policy at The Center for American Progress, to talk about the student debt relief plan unveiled by the Biden administration this week. It's a much bigger deal than you might have been led to believe and it's causing a meltdown among those who hate seeing the government actually help ordinary people.
Then we'll speak with Alec Karakatsanis, the executive director of Civil Rights Corps and author of the Alec's Copaganda Newsletter, about how police agencies, prison companies and their unions leverage sophisticated PR operations to shape how the media covers crime and ultimately how the public views the issue.
