Tonight’s live episode of
The
Independents (9 p.m. ET, 6 p.m. PT, on Fox Business
Network, with repeats three hours later) will once again allow you,
the beloved audience, to determine what we’ll talk about in one of
the show’s Party Panels. Go to the show’s Facebook page to
vote:
Should it be “LAPD officers tamper with in-car recording
equipment” or “Yale
threatens to suspend student for being too thin“? Television
history rests in your hands.
Helping to work through these and other topics are Party
Panelists Remi
Spencer (criminal defense attorney-slash-TV commentator) and
Thaddeus Russell
(beloved Reason
contributor). Also up for discussion: The latest
OK Cupid shenanigans and
related controversies, NCAA basketball champion Shabazz Napier
advocating for student-athletes to
get a bit more scratch, and whether (in Sen. Kirsten
Gillibrand’s words) college campuses have become “havens
for rape” (or in Cathy Young’s, “kangaroo
courts“).
Sen.
Mike Lee (R-Utah), one of the more consistently interesting
creatures on Capitol Hill, comes on to talk about his challenge to
GOP colleagues to prove their anti-crony capitalism bonafides by
croaking the Ex-Im Bank. Institute for Justice Senior Attorney
Paul Sherman argues that
McCutcheon v. Federal Election Commission doesn’t go far
enough in freeing political speech.
Debt-hating, baby-faced Millennial Nick Troiano explains why
he’s running as an
independent for Congress on a platform of “generational
equity,” and there’ll be some discussion about a truly disturbing
Department of Transportation anti-texting-and-driving
public service announcement.
