Yesterday, students around the country participated in a walkout on the one month anniversary of the Parkland massacre. Garland and Lee give their thoughts on the protest and whether or not it accomplished its goals.

Whitney Webb has become a regular guest on Fault Lines due to her diligent and fearless reporting. Today, she joins the show to discuss her latest article entitled, "US Commander: ‘US Troops Prepared to Die for Israel' in War against Syria, Hezbollah."

For the final segment of the show, Garland and Lee are joined by Austin Petersen, a Republican candidate running for Senate in the state of Missouri. Austin was recently banned from Facebook for 30 days over a post he made regarding gun rights. What is behind this ban, and is Facebook placing its thumb on the political scale by banning a politician from its platform prior to an election?
