Two weeks after the Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, we take a closer look at our data with our special guest and Professor of Law at Penn State University, Dara E. Purvis, to discuss the decision and its implications for the country. Then, we dive into state politics with a closer look at Governor Kathy Hochul’s sweeping victory in the New York Democratic primary. Will she be able to help get Democrats elected in tough congressional races this fall? Finally, America was very divided in the 50s...over bubblegum
With the Supreme Court’s June 24th decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, we take a deep dive into our post-ruling poll with NPR and the PBS NewsHour. @DaraPurvis, Associate Dean for Research and Partnerships and Professor of Law at Penn State University, helps us understand the disconnect between the Court and the majority of Americans. What does it say about America, the Court, and what happens post-Roe?
Next, we are looking at New York State politics by checking in on Kathy Hochul’s easy victory in the New York Democratic primary. Does her win mean her moderate brand of politics is ascendant in New York and can she help get other Democrats elected in what is likely to be a tough environment this November?
Finally, don’t blow that bubble! Lee’s Fun Fact goes back to the 1950s and may reignite the divide over children chewing bubble gum.
