How about a recap of all the the crimes committed by the 2016 cabinet and all the crimes of the orange sociopath in just the last 10 years. And why military generals call him a fascist

Alex is great. Ranjan not so much. Rajan parrots whatever is being said elsewhere. Alex provides great analysis and insight. Would be my favorite podcast if Ranjan is replaced.
My weekly tech listen!
