Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why the Ebola Outbreak Has Been Nearly Impossible to Stop
Q: Declan, thank you so much for doing this. Where are you right now?
I'm in Bunya, in the northeast, and I'm seeing an overwhelmed hospital system with scarce resources and a community disoriented by the outbreak, which helps explain why containment has been so difficult.
Inside Trump’s Mad Dash to Renovate Washington
Q: What is the broader significance of these no-bid contracts beyond dollars?
They illustrate a pattern where the administration prioritizes rapid, high-profile projects and favors entities connected to the administration, raising concerns about transparency, accountability, and the proper use of public space and funds.
Inside Trump’s Mad Dash to Renovate Washington
Q: How did the cost estimates for the Reflecting Pool project change over time?
The government's independent estimate was around 3-4 million, but the final price rose to about 13-17 million due to factors like inflation being counted more than once, with government pressures accelerating start and limiting bargaining power.
Inside Trump’s Mad Dash to Renovate Washington
Q: Why did the Lafayette Park contract go to a no-bid process?
Officials cited an emergency-like urgency and a desire to get the project done quickly, but reporting shows the process bypassed standard competitive bidding and raised questions about conflicts of interest and proper use of taxpayer funds.
One Town's Blueprint for Resegregating America
Q: Tell us who sued them and why.
Michelle Walker, a real estate broker who would have benefited financially from land in the compound, filed the lawsuit alleging housing discrimination based on race and other protected characteristics after being rejected from membership due to her Jewish faith and interracial marriage.
