- I’m done with Dasha Burns
It has become clear she is stupid or biased and I don’t believe she is stupid. Her Ted Cruz sealed it for me. He repeatedly stated obviously incorrect fact ( for instance, it is well documented that the US debt has consistently gone up faster under Republicans than under Democrats. ) but she did not call him on any of it. That is not reporting.

United Statesa month ago - Mike Johnson? Really???
I’ve really enjoyed this show and politico up until today. But this interview was so soft on Johnson and let him just straight lie about the situation in America and Arizona today. I’m disgusted. Do better.
Apple Podcasts1Hospice Nurse DanaUnited States2 months ago - Pete Buttigieg
So disappointed Dasha didn’t do the interview with Secretary Pete. This guy interrupted Pete so much and definitely sounded like he was trying to make his mark instead of focusing on the guest. Dasha needs to do another interview with him!
Apple Podcasts1Hawkeye KBUnited States2 months ago - Mark Rutte
So glad Dasha was able to get this interview. I’m incredibly disappointed to see how this man was like many of our politicians who don’t have the courage to criticize Donald Trump or Israel.

Dasha tried hard to get Lee to answer pointed questions. He avoided answering on the basis of not focusing on sound bites while using sound bites to blame everyone else for real issues. Lee, your obligation may be to follow the best version of the law, but you’re obviously following the best version of what billionaires want. Keep pushing them Dasha!
