Welcome back to Capitol Courage, where we’re doing our best to stay on top of all of the heroes and cowards making news in politics today, both in Virginia and across the country. Today’s episode is stacked with discussion around some of the week’s biggest fights, ranging from South Park excoriating Paramount and Donald Trump through the power of laughter and satire; some Democrats maybe, actually showing courage and the willingness to go for the jugular on redistricting, and the complete cowardice of Congressional Republicans protecting a dead pedophile and a sexual predator in the White House.
On our home front in Virginia, join us also for a great discussion with Del. Paul Krizek, a leader in the Virginia General Assembly on gaming issues, where we break down why the fight around so-called “skill” games (aka gas station slot machines) matters to you.
