I usually love Slate, but the tone of this episode was so condescending it was hard to listen to.
How closed is the border?
Jan 28
I love Slate, but this episode was a little bit off. For one, the guest spoke about how organized crime “business” might suffer due to the border being “closed.” I thought the whole point for declaring cartels as terrorists was to be able to appoint more resources to battle them?…

Jan 23
Appreciate the in depth analysis of the Executive Orders. Very informative. Please continue to release similar analysis into the future. I am also interested in the more detailed “why’s” behind various orders. For example, why fire the Head of TSA and the people who oversee airport safety?
Blake Lively vs Hollywood
Jan 9
Thank u for this balanced discussion of Blake vs Justin conflict. So sick of how women portrayed, harassed by men. Seems to me there is strong evidence, actual events/incidences that support Lively’s suit.
