This week, Pat Leahy and Cormac McQuinn join Hugh to review the happenings in the political sphere:
– Unprecedented in the U.S political chronicles is the conviction of Donald Trump, the former American president, on 34 cases of manipulating business records associated with an alleged clandestine payment to Stormy Daniels. However, given the possible influence on election day, does this even matter?
– Additional proof was exposed this week signifying Ireland’s failure in accomplishing its legally compulsory climate change goals.
– Is it plausible that the scandal involving Fine Gael’s local election candidate, Marian Agrios, could impact the party beyond Louth, or even her specific Drogheda seat?
Additionally, the team shares their top IT readings for the week:
– Fresh columnist Mark O’Connell expounds why students opt for silence when questioned about their rationale for protesting.
– Surprising discoveries showing the Irish State being under the sway of Big Smoky Bacon.
– Yoni Wieder, Ireland’s Chief Rabbi, brings forth criticism against President Higgins.
