The group also discusses who controls US foreign policy in Washington DC, the increasingly bizarre twists to the Russian investigation including leftist comedian and civil rights activist Randy Credico being summoned by the US House Intelligence Committee, and the countries that openly give the US money for large development projects in the US.
