Today’s West Coast Cookbook & Speakeasy Podcast for our especially special Daily Special, River City Hash Mondays is now available on the Spreaker Player!
Starting off in the Bistro Cafe, frantic as hell, Trump tries to test a no-nonsense New York judge by going after his daughter.
Then, on the rest of the menu, “in a grave mistake backwards,” Facebook owner Meta is decommissioning a vital digital tool that tracks viral falsehoods during this crucial election year; an oversight report found the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department flouted a request from local leaders to answer questions about a recently uncovered deputy gang; and, the states are moving to shore up voting rights protections after the courts have severely eroded federal safeguards.
After the break, we move to the Chef’s Table where a Russian journalist who covered Navalny’s trials has been jailed in Moscow on charges of extremism; and, Erdogan suffered a major setback after Sunday’s local elections, as Turkey’s main opposition party retained control over key cities and made huge gains across the country.
Bon Appétit!
