Gary, Lyn and Dee discuss topics of the day and current events. We discuss the new National Security Adviser to the Republican Administration, John Bolton. We continue our discussion of the cog railway that ascends Pikes Peak. Cambridge Analytica’s behavior is hashed over. Andrew McCabe’s firing is reviewed. Good luck to him in the future. The budget and appropriations boondoggle is considered. The Dodd-Frank bill had a provision for publicizing CEO to median income of publicly held companies. Some communities charge a penalty where the ratio is severely unbalanced. (Could this be why so many companies were lobbying against enforcement of that provision?) We talk about the tax rebate for the wealthy. Wisconsin is being forced to hold special elections against the wishes of their Republican Administration. We discuss the upcoming “March for Our Lives” demonstrations.
