Nancy Pelosi today rejected two of Kevin McCarthy's pics for the Select Committee on Jan 6, so McCarthy accused her of playing partisan politics and said none of his members would participate. That's the grown up version of taking ones toys and going home, I guess. In the senate, the Republicans are doing their best to stop any business from getting done, in this case it's the infrastructure bills they're stopping. Who better to try to make sense of the nonsense than a professor of Democracy and Justice studies... well, emeritus anyway. Harvey J. Kaye returns to the show today with a special bonus...a book report on Josh Hawley's masterpiece. He read it so we don't have to!
