A lot can happen in a week. Some of it good. Some of it bad. Some of it downright ugly. When faced with intriguing developments in the week’s news, we turn to a rotating panel of “non-experts” to parse The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of it all.
This week, our panel weighs in on these stories:
- Houston-area Rep. Al Green leaving the hospital to cast his vote defeating an attempted impeachment of the Homeland Security Secretary
- Jose Altuve signing a contract extension with the Astros that will keep him with the team essentially for life
Our panel of non-experts this week includes:
- Charles Kuffner, who writes the political blog Off the Kuff
- Raúl Ramos, associate professor of History at the University of Houston
- Vivian Ho, health economist at Rice University and Baylor College of Medicine
