How America Should Deal with Jan 6th Rio...

About this episode

Jordan Klepper reports on Ronna McDaniel’s short-lived stint at NBC News and the key question it raises: How should America deal with the people who denied the results of the 2020 election and stormed the Capitol on January 6th, 2021? Plus, Michael Kosta travels to Oakland, where RFK Jr. finally announces mega-donor tech billionaire and surfer Nicole Shanahan as his VP pick. But Jr.'s supporters seem just as unsure about Shanahan as they are about vaccines. Also, Jordan sits with NOTUS investigative reporter, Byron Tau, to talk about his new book, “Means of Control,” which explores the culture of surveillance created through a mass market of user data to track and target people for advertising and, in some cases, more nefarious purposes. Tau also offers basic steps anyone can take to reclaim some privacy and protect their information.
