Militarized Policing and Cultural Problems

Political cartoonist Ted Rall and CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM EST. Producer Robby West fills in for John today.

Today we discuss:

• The ICE agent who shot Minneapolis resident Renee Good to death in her car has set off a confrontation between the federal government and local law enforcement. Protests heat up and major questions about ICE tactics and training arise as the weekend begins and ICE shoots two more people in Portland.

• Oil executives head to the White House to discuss looting Venezuela’s oil. Major companies want taxpayers to guarantee they’ll be compensated if their risks head south. Meanwhile, Russia is being accused of spreading propaganda about US imperialism.

• Gavin Newsom is pre-running for President.

• Trump says he’s only constrained by his own morality. Is that enough? 61% of Americans say they want America to be a moral leader. 39% say it is.
