Shownotes Transcript

What is the Real ID Act? Journalist and author James Bovard calls in to explain how the REAL ID Act, like the Patriot Act, is government overreach under the pretext of protection. Also joining David Gornoski, to explore the injustice of locking up non-violent offenders in federal prisons and exposing them to the pandemic, is former prisoner Chad Marks. Plus, David Gornoski comments on the bizarre news of the shooting of a federal judge's son and husband. Calling attention to the corruption that exists at the upper levels of government, David questions the very necessity of putting more power in state institutions. Listen to the full episode for all of this and more.
