Our government protects Apple over people?
You can also find previous episodes on YouTube here.
What a week. The presidential election is in full swing. But we have much more to talk about. Today we will talk about Trump’s disregard of the Latino vote even as he panders to all minorities. We will talk about the Europeans Union’s judgment against Ireland and Apple demanding that they pay back taxes and stop defrauding the Irish people. We will also touch on Colin Kaepernick’s brave protest against the National Anthem, the Star Spangled Banner, and the hoopla it created.
