Breaking News #26: The Biden Harris Swap
August 1, 2024·0 comments·In Brief
In this episode of Breaking News, we cover the recent developments in the Democratic party, with Biden stepping aside and Kamala Harris becoming the presumptive nominee. We discuss how reality seems to be proclaimed rather than acknowledged, and how both parties seem more interested in conflict than actual policy solutions. We also touch on the SEC’s case against short-seller Andrew Left and the selective enforcement of rules in finance. We also debate the merits of giving green cards to foreign college graduates and how systems can be exploited by those with money. Finally, we explore the themes in Charlie XCX’s album “Brat,” relating it to the myth of Narcissus and broader questions of self-worth and community in our current cultural moment.
